Just don't know what to do with myself. - Guild Wars Forums

Tundra · Sep 21, 2008, 08:59 PM // 20:59

Ok, I don't know wihit what to start. I have a problem with GW. I have been playing gw since January 2007. I have all campaings + eotn. I have used 6 of my char slots for PvE and 2 for PvP. I have a problem, that i cant stick to one char. I have elementalist, with wich i have completed Factions, NF and eotn + i have only one title maxed, but others are in the middle (but still i find kinda boring to play with her dunno why, because all of people enjoys it), I have Ranger, that has finished Prophecies, half Factions, half Nf and half eotn (she has nice armor, but still i dont feel good by playing with ranger), I have Paragon, that has Legendary Survivor and has finished Factions and half NF campaing (this character i like, but it gets kinda boring to play with only two builds), then there is necro, who is in the middle of Factions, Monk, who is in the middle of Propheices and half Factions and one Ritualist wich just began her journey in Gw. I'm a little bit tired of always changing chars and trying to do the same missions 2 or 4 times in a month. I don't have much money, because I don't do so much farming(i have about 150k all together from all chars). So can you help me with an advice? I wan't to stay to one main char, but i can't choose. So wich of these chars you see more perspective? I would like to play with paragon, but i think that there could be a nerf osth, so it will get boring. Ok, can you help me to decide wich could be the best, strongest and funnyest char to play?
Ok thank You.

P.S. I know, my English is cripple but im sorry, English is not my mother-language.
P.S.S. I don't even know if this is in the rigth section. If it's not, please move it, not delete it.

And Thank You again! Enjoy the game.

Can't go wrong with a monk...you'll be accepted into pretty much any PuG, except speed clears.
They make semi-good farmers and are just overall fun to play..it's more of a challenge, hence, more fun :P

My suggestion would be to eventually play all of them but concentrate on finishing one first then moving on to the next, there is no most fun char to play as everyone has a different description of that nor is there a best/strongest char to play as every class has a different roll and with the introduction of pve skills any differences that could separate them has marginalised.

I would pick the character you enjoy the most at the moment and stick with it, then move on to the next character. You will have time prior to GW2 coming out so I would not worry too much.

You said that to date you have enjoyed playing your Paragon the most out of all your characters.

With that in mind, have you read Snow Bunny's Paragon guide? http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10313323

It will give you more information about useful skills and different builds available for different areas. I agree that no matter the profession, the same build day after day becomes very boring.

Set a goal for your Paragon - max a title, cartography, play some PvP. Don't do the same thing every day.

And yes, I also have characters that are two years old and have barely started their campaign.

Similar situation for me too.

I have left and returned to gw 3 or 4 times to pursue other hobbies.
Finished Factions with 5 characters mainly because to get the points for luxon it was easier to run multiple characters to the same point in the game than do the repeatable missions for a smaller reward.
With so many characters at gayla hatchery I just ran them through to the end.

Left gw returned for NF and haven't finished it yet.
Finally decided to concentrate on my Necro and finished Prophesies "the last mission had been on hold for a year or more.

Now I alternate my game goals in eye
Necro gained lvl 5 asura then same for norn and ebon.

Moved on to getting my cartographer levels up then it will be back to asura norn and ebon for a bit .

It keeps me interested for the moment.
But I only play a couple of days a week of my gaming time on GW.

The best way to have fun with Guild Wars, in my opinion, is to make your own builds. Trying to make builds that synergize well with other builds on your hero's and such, even if they arent the "standard" build for whatever profession. For Example - say you have a necro that you always use as a SS, or an MM.. Try and change up your build, or just go to a completely different one. Or take a rarely used elite skill and build a.. build that goes well with it.

Or change your secondary.

Or try and get a new title.

Any of those should be fun..

Well if you find it boring , what can i say.

I have many chars and never felt G/W boring at all.
It is really what is..fun for you?

Play what you like best..dont use standard skill bars day in day out,change secondary.use a diff wepon ect

you refer to your money why? as money is not important really, its what you get out of the game.

you question ..nerf....so what ..learn to adapt...

These may seen harsh ,but there not ment to be its fun and really if you cannot make g/w fun for yourself then take a break and your chars ect will be there on your return.

Everyones idea on how to get the best out of g/w is different ..we are all individuals......

I cannot grasp the point ..strongest and funneyest you made..my answer would be make it a 3foot tall char and crazy dress sense

So really take a break from it and come back when you feel the need
