2.) Just bought a Feiry Dragon Swd (Coz it look cool. LoL) Can i add hilt to it ? Can I add pommel to it and what chioce would be good ?

3.) If i buy factions and nightfall, can my current char go over to their land ?

4.) When i get drop it seem i am unable to place a price on it to sell and it awlays go to merchant (*sigh) Any advise on where can i check pricing ?

Kindly please help me out at here.

1) You might also like to add a vigor rune to some of your armor. It'll increase your max HP. Also depending on what type of weapon you use, you might want to get a superior rune of that weapon mastery and put it on a headpiece that gives +1 to that attribute. Also a minor rune of strength and minor rune of tactics is nice to have.

2) You can't change the hilt of a Fiery Dragon Sword or an Icey Dragon Sword, they stay Fiery or Icey respectively. Any other sword you can change the hilt though. You can also add any pommel you want to your FDS. Whatever pommel you add to it will override whatever pommel was on it at first.

3)Yep. There will be a quest from Firstwatch Sergio in Lions Arch to get to Cantha. I don't know who the quest will come from to get to Elona. Prolly the same guy though.

4)There's a price-check forum here on guildwarsguru. Here's the link.

Welcome to the forums. Being as it's your first post it sometimes helps to take a good look around at the available sub forums and stickies that might contain a lot of the information you are seeking. Stickies, FAQs and Searchs are good ways to help you weed through a lot of threads to find your information quickly.

There are also some other good resources for information, www.guildwiki.org for example is the definitive source and easy to use.

1. Most people put their Main attribute rune (ie Superior Rune of Swordsmanship) on to their headpiece. Then they get additional head headpieces and use a different Sup. rune on that. This way, you can quickly, and cheaply, change from one type of build to another.

4. You can also get an idea what things sell for by watching the trade chat in LA, Ascalon City, and Droknar's Forge.

To the OP:
Yup, this is something you always want to do (unless for a certain monk build which you'll find out about later). Just remember that vigor runes (in fact, runes of the same functionality) don't stack. Meaning that if you put more than one, it'll only take the highest value from a single rune. For vigor, I suggest a major vigor. It gives 41 health (9hp from max) and is relatively cheap. Once you get playing more and have money to blow, you can get a superior vigor with 50hp on it.

NEVER put more than one Superior Rune on a warrior, besides Sup Absorb,Sup Hammer,Axe,Sword, and vigor.

Be careful of absolutes in GW, for normal play sure such a statement is OK. There are farming builds that do well with 2 superiors, it just depends on the area and enemies and build.

Quote:

For every warrior out there, I prefer Glad armor due to energy.

Not every warrior build makes use of energy and some are better suited to higher AL but Gladiators is a good choice.

Again, look at how you play and decide. I imagine you'll only get one FoW set so pick the one you'll use the most and if you aren't sure perhaps you need to wait until you are more confident in choosing.

Sorry but what does FoW mean ??

When you say runes don stack it mean if arm have rune for swd... leg cannot add rune for swd again ?
Heard b4 some runes can stack ... what are they ? I only know absortion... vigor can stack ??

majoho · Sep 14, 2006, 07:12 AM // 07:12

No type of runes stack - that's why people say don't use more than one of each.

(unless you're doing something special like a 55 build)

Two Superior Absortion do not stack. One Superior Absortion + a piece of knight's armor will stack. However, knight's armor only reduce damage on that one piece of armor.

DeanBB · Sep 14, 2006, 05:11 PM // 17:11

Yes, what stacks with absorption is coming from different sources: rune, armor, shield. Rune + rune do not stack, armor + armor does not stack but instead covers hits to the pieces protected.

Eliz · Sep 14, 2006, 11:46 PM // 23:46

Sorry i don seem to understand it...
lets juz use a example...

i using full set knight ....

Head :

Hand :
Leg :
