What is with this? Ft Rakin Mission? - Guild Wars Forums

FireMountain · Jun 16, 2005, 02:02 AM // 02:02

Just completed the mission with henchmen got

Tall shild 9 armor (level 1 tatics required)
a 5-7 bow
two charr hides
best charr armor was 17 one was fiften the rest was 13 and under.

A couple of charr carvings?

What is with this? Pathetic. Oh a little bit of gold here and there that is shared with the group.

I want to toggle that percentage with the group I should get half cause I'm the boss.

I was very disappointed in this loot I mean there wasn't any. What is with this? Sorry sorry sorry.

I have probably over 400 hours in this game and I've found one hilt. ONE what is with that? What are you trying to do here?

Tactical-Dillusions · Jun 16, 2005, 02:07 AM // 02:07

400 hours eh?

Maybe you should pull your backside out of the "junior" areas. Sorry pal, but you won't find anything worthwhile in those zones.

Sir Hammonsweet · Jun 16, 2005, 02:14 AM // 02:14

yeah seriously, time to go balls to the wall and take a tour of the underworld...

FireMountain · Jun 16, 2005, 02:16 AM // 02:16

Besides what is wrong with the hilts in this game?

wgregory87 · Jun 16, 2005, 02:29 AM // 02:29

What are you so obsessed with hilts? You cant search for 1 item and expect to get it EVER. You can expect to be able to buy one from someone else. Listen, after 400 hours you're still at the 2nd mission of the game. This is pathetic. After 40 hours and playing very lackadaisically, I reached level 20 and ascended. You need to try to progress through the game. You're probably about 1/50th of the way through it. You can expect better items and more gold later in the game. If I want to now, I can make 1-2 platinum in under 10 minutes.

velvetbunny · Jun 16, 2005, 02:38 AM // 02:38

I could not decide if this thread was a joke or not... but curiosity has gotten the best of me. Have you really played for 400 hours and are still doing "Fort Ranik"? Cause that would be your problem right there, thats the second mission in a massive campaign, of course the loot is going to suck.

After 400 hours of play you should have no problem coming up with a viable solo build that can go kill things and keep 100% of the loot. Unlike with henchmen who all take their share. But you have played for 400 hours... so you already know that... right?

wgregory87 · Jun 16, 2005, 02:40 AM // 02:40

After 400 hours it would be simple to have 4 level 20 characters with every elite skill in the game that each has completely beaten the game.

Maybe he has owned the game for 400 hours, but he only started yesterday and hes pissed that identification kits are costing him a buttload.

FireMountain · Jun 17, 2005, 12:30 AM // 00:30

I have ascended done it all and have gone through several characters wgregory87 you sorry sob. Don't go name calling you make yourself out a fool. I said I played the game that much just to show how difficult it is to find hilts.

This was another character you know you can have more than one and I've done several. Read and think you do know how to think on your own don't you?

FireMountain · Jun 17, 2005, 12:31 AM // 00:31

I've completed the game with other characters. Started a new one.

Some puppies you have to show them the stick before you throw it.

FireMountain · Jun 17, 2005, 12:33 AM // 00:33

No one has addressed the topic. How much have you played the game and how many hilts have you come across? I don't like going out and buying stuff from people because far too often they can be jerks just like some of the ones above.

You do find nice people in this game then again you find people like above.

Bingley Joe · Jun 17, 2005, 12:55 AM // 00:55

Seems like all I ever find are swords and hammers and their stupid crappy upgrades I can't use.

I'm holding onto a poisoner's hilt at the moment, in fact... thinking I might just change my secondary into a warrior later on just so I can put some of these drops to work!

N0MaD · Jun 17, 2005, 01:26 AM // 01:26

Fire most items I unlocked like Hilts, bow strings etc was from rare items, even if its blue and is crappy always pick it up and identify it, up to you what you do with after that. I have Soo many things unlocked like hilts, bow strings etc just by doing that. Other then that like pl above said buying it, I hardly buy things like that from ppl unless you are eagerly trying to update a peculiar weapon you wield.
But the whole concept of not buying is to unlock those type of things for pvp isnt it?

Well let's see... I've been playing maybe a total of 50 hours. I have several characters, I'm in kryta (about 12 missions away from Fort Ranik) I've found several hilts, raked up about 5 platinum pieces or more, have salvaged several runes. Instead of replaying the same mission over and over, you ought to progress into the story a little bit. Though everyone else has already said this, I just wanted to show you what you COULD have gotten while playing. If I got that in about 50 hours, imagine what you could have had in 400? Just use your time a little more wisely, and don't be afraid to do missions that seem hard. If you find yourself too weak, consider doing skill quests and switching up your hotkey bar. Hope this helped.

timmo567 · Jun 17, 2005, 02:44 AM // 02:44

200 hours total, probally 15 or so hilts, mabye more.

I can tell your a noob because:

a) You want more gold because you are the "boss" (started the party)

b) Your complaining about low level loot in a low level mission.

LOL!

wgregory87 · Jun 17, 2005, 03:07 AM // 03:07

I would take your insult to offence if it wasn't so clear that you were both a noobie and a moron. Just one of your ridiculous posts would display both of these, and you've made a lot more than one ridiculous post.

cannonfodder · Jun 17, 2005, 09:44 AM // 09:44

Firemountain,Having played over 400 hours of the game with various characters, you should know that anywhere surroundind ascalon will not yeild any decent materials or gold...if it did that would just be silly

Calnaion Blackhawk · Jun 17, 2005, 09:55 AM // 09:55

400 hours and still around ascalon/fort ranik?
wtf lol

Yeah, but didn't you read his Post. He said he has 2 other characters and he's ascended. Why go for all that good stuff in the hard missions when you can waste 400 hours in the easy missions. ROFL
