Should I exit pre-searing now? - Guild Wars Forums

locutus · Feb 01, 2008, 02:27 AM // 02:27

When I was a ranger briefly, someone said I should be able to find 4 trainers. As a warrior, I have only found 3 plus 1 for each of the other professions. So is that all the trainers in pre-searing or are there more? I'm going to choose my secondary profession now. I have 2100 gold and I'm level 8. Is that about right for leaving pre-searing?

Yeah that's about when i left pre-searing with my characters.

Snograt · Feb 01, 2008, 02:29 AM // 02:29

Yes, although there are 2 trainers for your primary profession and 2 more for your secondary. The second secondary trainer won't talk to you until you've chosen your secondary profession.

Level 8 is a good level to leave pre-searing at, it's when it starts taking a bit to level up in pre, and it is a good level for the beginning missions in post-searing. (The first few missions will be cake at level 8)

I'm actually surprised you have so much gold.

It doesn't take that long to earn that much gold in pre just clearing Lakeside alone will net you 1K as you can sell to the merchant right outside close to the Abbey.I made 6K in pre once.

That's well above when I leave pre (lvl 4-5).
You're well set for Old Ascalon

Lews · Feb 01, 2008, 07:56 AM // 07:56

I usually wait till rank 8 or 9, with all the armor and a few thousand gold.

<< Lvl 1 Still in Pre....32mth old char....

Kurt · Feb 01, 2008, 01:37 PM // 13:37

I was level 7 on my first char when she left pre searing, other chars that I made in prophecies campaign left it earlier

N1ghtstalker · Feb 01, 2008, 01:56 PM // 13:56

left pre on lvl 2 and didn't have problems
cuz i hitchhiked my way through to marhan's grotto got exp enough

rick1027 · Feb 01, 2008, 02:03 PM // 14:03

all depends if you want to go for ldoa then id wait otherwise id do all the quest maybe leave about level 10- 14 some where. i always loved charr hunting myself so i leave later

Malice Black · Feb 01, 2008, 02:03 PM // 14:03

I completed every quest in Pre this time, and was still only lvl8. Longest I've ever stayed in pre too. Normally leave at level 3.

Leaving at level 7-8 means you can steam roll the first quests and the easier missions. Having a few leet, and regular tomes helps as well.

TwinRaven · Feb 01, 2008, 04:39 PM // 16:39

NEVER LEAVE!!! I have a level 14 necro, intended as a perma-pre character, though, at level 20 I will leave and attempt to gain all titles possible while developing the character (instead of going back for them later)...Why? Because we like you...M...O....U....S....E!

Horseman Of War · Feb 01, 2008, 04:42 PM // 16:42

just wiki presearing and make sure you have all the skills/quest rewards that you want (like that funny crystalline replica +5AL while casting)

Wirt · Feb 01, 2008, 11:16 PM // 23:16

I was lvl 11 on my first character, then about lvl 8s on my others. Just do all the quests, and at least once try to clear the charr on the other side of The Wall, the cutscene will make more sense. If you watch the cutscene you'll say "Hey I killed them already!", haha.

hurdlebeast · Feb 01, 2008, 11:28 PM // 23:28

I usually just do the main quests, skill quests, and get outta there. usually lvl 4 or 5, mebbe 6

The most I ever left with was 17k but that character was level 13.

oresteez · Feb 06, 2008, 05:39 PM // 17:39

lol farm all your gold in pre, so you can buy a run to beacon's or LA as soon as you get to ascalon, haha
