Well the best way to go is for you to decide.

If you like playing a character from ground 0 (level 1) and like playing through a storyline then you should do that.

If you are really into PvP and want to jump right in then the Lvl 20 starter character is the way to go.

Something you could do is create both types. Create your PvE character and start into the storyline and see if you like it. And go ahead and create a Lvl 20 PvP character and get into some battles and see how you like that.

I think doing the PvE part first is a little bit better becuase you really get a feel for how skill combos work and can test alot of combos out in the PvE enviroment.

Just my 2 cents worth,

Krat

PvP characters cannot leave pvp areas. If you want to adventure around the world with a character, make a PvE char. PvE chars can also carry a backpack full of extra equipment in PvP which makes them slightly better in PvP. Filling that backpack with useful stuff takes quite a while though

Yes. But PvE chars can do more since they can adventure and play PvP while PvP chars can only play PvP. But, making a PvE character that has equipment as good as a PvP characters takes a bit more time.

In factions PvE there are competative missions and challenge missions

In PvP there's random arena, team arena, heroes ascent, guild vs guild and alliance battles.

Search the battle types in gw.gamewikis.org. I'm too lazy to describe them all.

so basicly once u reach lvl 20 in pve you turn into a pvp character?

azunder · Sep 13, 2006, 06:34 AM // 06:34

Well, at level 20. you'll be equal to the most basic pvp character you can make if:
You have the best armor (armor that costs 1500 plat or above)
You finished the extra attribute point quests
