Buying GW through NCSoft's website. - Guild Wars Forums

Kino307 · Feb 15, 2010, 08:02 PM // 20:02

Couldn't find this anywhere so, here goes. I've had Nightfall ( it's the only campaign I own ) for about 2 years, I've been playing from time to time, but I've only gotten as far as level 13, haha. So, I decided to start playing seriously, and I'm getting Factions, 'cause I really want to make an Assassin. So I have two questions:

1- If I buy Factions through NCSoft's website, I'm only going to get Factions' serial code, which I can add to my Nightfall account, and then I'll unlock everything Factions has, right?

2- I know I've said I was going to get Factions, but, is it worth getting if I only have Nightfall? I'm pretty much only going to buy it because of the two other classes (rits and assassins), so, do you guys recommend me getting EOTN or Prophecies over Factions? ( I might buy another expansion in the future )

I might, but I don't need them all NOW, and it's not 10$ for all of them.

If your going to be playing seriously, get them all. The game is much more than NF, and factions pve wise, is ok. You'll have the most pve fun in proph and eotn (considering your level of experience). It seems like your a slower player so I'd go to proph, factions throws you right into the game. You could always use the other campaigns as alternatives, simply take the quest to access the other campaigns.

I'd get all of them for sure, the whole game is interconnected now. Player markets are in NF, uw and fow is organizes in proph, lots of endgame is in eotn, and pvp in factions. That's pretty general but you get the idea.

Thanks guys, I guess I'll end up buying all the campaigns, but I'd still appreciate it if someone could answer my other question, if I buy a campaign through the in-game store, I'm only going to get a serial code and that code will unlock all content for that specific campaign, right?

EDIT: Nevermind guys, found what I was looking for:

Includes:

* A serial code for account creation.
* Access to the full Guild Wars Factions??? campaign via downloadable client.
* Bonus Item: Fire Imp combat ally to assist in your adventures.

Digital purchase only. No physical box will be shipped.

I believe that it will be auto-added to the acct that it is purchased on, I bought all games in boxes so I'm not 100% sure. That is my inclination though. I got the xunlai pane from the ncsoft store and it was done through the master acct that is linked to your game acct, you choose which acct to add it to there. However, that was the ncsoft store, not the in-game store per-se.

Okay so, I'll get factions tomorrow, Prophecies next month, and EoTN last, since you say there's alot of endgame content.

The reason I was wondering if it's worth getting all the campaigns is, GW2 is coming out this year I think, and I've been reading some stuff that says GW is dead, the community sucks, etc, is that so?

PS: I might double post, I'm new to these forums, if I do, sorry <.<

It is auto-added to the account as soon as you click the purchase button (if using credit card, not sure about paypal). Content is added as you explore, same as it does whenever you load an unused map in NF
