Anyone got the GW Prima guide yet? - Guild Wars Forums

gwden · May 30, 2005, 07:23 PM // 19:23

Does it tell you which quest rewards are given by which NPCs?

DarkzCloudz · May 30, 2005, 08:28 PM // 20:28

Or you can just talk to the NPC's...

gwden · May 30, 2005, 08:32 PM // 20:32

You could if you know where all quest giving NPCs are located.

goldfinger · May 30, 2005, 08:44 PM // 20:44

We have an apparant shipping issue around here. I can't get the guide yet, sometime this week. It really gags me off.

Starsky-sama · May 30, 2005, 08:47 PM // 20:47

Looks realy nice, but wont it be absolete when theres an update ?

gwden · May 30, 2005, 09:27 PM // 21:27

If you compare the images of the book cover on gamestop, barnes and nobles, and amazon, you'll see different text on the right side. The one with poster included image (like on amazon) says it ships June 7th. The one that's on gamestop and doesn't have poster included pic is already shipping.

It looks like there are two different books, but I can only find one on the official site.

ManadartheHealer · May 30, 2005, 09:41 PM // 21:41

I wouldn't suggest buying the strategy guide (PvP strategy changes daily, plus all of the updates they pump into the game makes the strategy guide seem so... inadequate)

gwden · May 30, 2005, 09:44 PM // 21:44

I only want it because it gives location of NPCs that give quests for skill rewards.

Ninna · May 30, 2005, 10:39 PM // 22:39

I saw the preview, and wow, those maps look a little confusing, but I can't wait to hold the guide with my world map rather than look at it in PDF format.

Gamestop the other day, saturday, said it shipped out the day before, EB had no idea about it, and the last time I asked EB had no clue, they figured I should ask the Rhino that was in the mall, they had no clue on it, kind of funny.

I'm waiting for Wal-Mart to get it in so I can look at it and hopefully snag it.

Tala · May 31, 2005, 05:38 AM // 05:38

I have the book. The pull out map is very nice.

Gives a full list of all missions and their respective bonus missions. Also has a separate map for each with the best way to get to the area's needed and tips for completing the quest.

Has area maps with npc's listed if they give quests. However, I haven't seen anything yet pertaining to the OP question. Sorry. Haven't had time to look through the whole thing yet.

By the by, ours came in on the 28th via EB fulfillment (we pre-ordered it and had it mailed to our house).

Hope this helps.

RepinsMirg · May 31, 2005, 05:39 AM // 05:39

You should post where to find some of the missing elite skills like warriors endurance *hint hint* (nudge nudge)

Tala · May 31, 2005, 05:49 AM // 05:49

According to the book...Custodians Dellus, Fidius, Hulgar (Forgotten Enchanted Bosses)

Mind you I have no idea what that means as I have not finished the game. But I hope that helps the above poster.

RepinsMirg · May 31, 2005, 05:53 AM // 05:53

Thank you thank you thank you all warriors who read this thread will now love you.

Tala · May 31, 2005, 05:54 AM // 05:54

I eagerly await my biscuits in the mail.

RepinsMirg · May 31, 2005, 05:55 AM // 05:55

lol ok the last two skills in the game that no one knows where they are: Crippling Shot, Punishing Shot think you could hook us up =P

Tala · May 31, 2005, 05:58 AM // 05:58

Crippling Shot -- Melandru's Cursed (Golem Boss)

Punishing Shot -- Thul Boulderrain (Giant Boss)

Ask and thou shalt receive.

Tala · May 31, 2005, 02:26 PM // 14:26

In anwer to the OP...yes! The book has listed (in many different cross-referencing ways) all of the skills and which quests will give them to you.
