Now i'm playing less than i used to, i'm finding any other game more fun than GW(note : i used to find it fun , but not really anymore..), such as assassins creed revelations( solo + multiplayer ), skyrim, dungeon siege3, portal2, etc....
And how is that trolling? If you have played hundreds of hours guild wars and never ever touched pvp, I suggest you that pvp is the way to go since it provides you a challenge and really is the better side of the game.

Half of pvp is dead. The half that is alive gets boring real fast

Alot of these things sound interesting. I am currently PvPing still as I am in an active GvG guild, but RA is boring as there are too many players that don't quite understand the game and HA I haven't bothered with because I'm only r3 and I'll never find a decent group anyway. I have also tried going for GWAMM with no deaths, but after I died I became disheartened. Maybe I could try doing DoA or UW just for shits and gigs

Join an Euro GvG guild.
Much more fun than PvE any day.

(edit, read the last post.)

Join a GvG guild that actually does GvG.
And yes, you can play in very decent HA groups even as a rank 3.

Help out clueless newbs like me for a while. When I started getting bored/disenchanted with the last game I was playing, I spent a few months helping new people, and since the starter areas of the game are great, it was a lot of fun - and they appreciated it, too - every game has just enough of a different way of doing things that it'll mess you up at the beginning, and we have all been there.

When the game management got so bad I felt a bit ill just looking at the icon on my desktop, I started playing this game instead.

It's one of those circle of life things, I think.

Im a fan of the make a new character and dont use storage at all idea. use collectors and cap all your skills from enemies.

for the truly masochistic....try a couple other rules

-dont use heroes, henchies only.

-quests must be done in order of acquisition.

-no map traveling. if you have somewhere to go, you walk!

Anyone who is bored IS NOT challenging themselves to anything.

Go beat the mission Dzagonur Bastion, in Hard Mode, placing the three sets of defenders only on the middle station. You can play as any character class, but must take 1 Assassin, 2 Warrior and 2 Dervish heroes (henchmen are allowed if you don't have the available heroes), no more. You and your heroes cannot have Ranger, Monk or Ritualist secondaries, and only one hero is allowed to have any form of resurrection, you cannot. You must kill the Paragon boss last, but you cannot kill the Elementalist boss first.

Have fun with that.

That sounds quite interesting and fun. Have you done this before? Will be sure to give it a go

Edit: Just realised something tho....I can only really have 1 healer

If you haven't already, go clear Deep and Urgoz with 7H in HM. A couple other things fun to try would be dungeon solos if you have cons to burn, doing cartographer if you haven't because using SaO chain to map beyond portals is fun, and doing a full run of DoA NM with heroes. Avoid anything that borders on bdsm or is tedious unless you enjoy the challenge.

Create and build a guild/alliance then manage it. It'll occupy your time for sure.

Play a new game until GW2 comes out. You don't want to hate GW before the new game comes out. Same thing happened to me. Once I got to 35 HoM points, I really didn't want to do anything anymore. Take a break. There are so many F2P MMO's out there (few that are as good as GW but they're good for passing time).

Oh my god.....

I really don't see how people can waste their time like this. You don't have anything to do in this game? You're bored?

DO SOMETHING ELSE!

Why would you keep wasting your time in this game? Pve is BORING, there's nothing you can actually DO FOR FUN, it's just grinding for achievements which you don't even need in the first place. And pvp is DEAD.

How about thinking of a better way to use your time? Go outside and enjoy nature maybe? Take up photography, or a musical instrument? Maybe there's some sport you enjoy? There's so much you can do, I don't see why you would waste your time in gw. That is, unless you really enjoy it, but you don't seem to. I don't either, and that's why I quit.

If you hate gw so much why are you even here?
Well there's people out there who, guess what, still like the game. If the OP asked for suggestions it means he still likes the game someway, so your negativism is just out of place.

And actually, for the op, I agree with the suggestion of tryin out things with all classes, it's just fun experimenting different mechanics.

And yet you haunt the forums for a game you don't play and complain? Great yet another person I can skip past on the forums, thanks for the time saver outing yourself trolling!

I have been doing this, but I am doing it with Post-Searing starter armor.
I already have it infused, and I can be seen speedclearing Fissure of Woe, and farming Slaver's, also managed to get tier 2 survivor while wearing that shit.
