Random Team Assignments and Level 20 Character Creations - Guild Wars Forums

Sudie · Apr 18, 2005, 03:47 PM // 15:47

A friend and I played the beta over the weekend, and we found it very difficult to enter in to the same group. We would have to keep on dropping missions until we were on the same team which was probably very frustrating on the teams we were dropping from. Will there be an easier way to join groups with the people you want in release (besides Tomb of the Primeval Kings)?

I've played many ORPG/MMORPG's and the feature to instantly make a maximum level character from the beginning is unorthodox. Will this feature be available in the release?

Sorry if these questions have already been answered. I searched but couldnt' find anything about these topics.

The random Arenas - there was Fort Koga, D'Whatever, and the Crag this weekend for PvP chars and there are a few more like the Ascalon Arena - are there to provide people with a quick and easy way of getting some PvP in. I agree with you that it would be nice to be able to flag someone to team with or against or to have some Arenas like that be set up so that teams weren't random but it doesn't look like there's going to be any way of making sure you're in the group you want except to keep winning.

As for the PvP character, yes, they'll be in for release. You just won't be able to unlock all skills with the press of a button. You'll have to unlock those skills through PvE play with an RP character.

Gail said in a Fansite Friday that there will be arenas where you can choose your team.
