Hi, welcome to McDonald's! Unfortunately, all of our representatives are currently away from keyboard, and will be so for the foreseeable future.

I had a friend tell me if I had applied my time spent on GW, both in game and out, to something else, I could be the best guitar player in the world, or be totally ripped up, or have learned my Japanese.

But it's impractical to spend that many hours studying, or playing an instrument, or working. Although you might "learn" more about GW than about something else in a similar amount of time, that time isn't just allotted freely. If it wasn't GW, I'd spend my time relaxing some other way. I'd rather be good at GW and know everything about it than just lay around.

All things in balance.

In 3000 - 5000 hours you could teach a monkey to memorize all gw skills and their usage.

But how many of you know all skill changes...

Name all skill changes from beginning(no beta) to now for :
Aegis
Primal Rage
Frenzy
Lighting Orb

Frenzy? That's a short list.

Ah old skills. Nostalgia.

Yeah me too, I remember a day when I could recall virtually every skill's function just from it's icon or name and would be able to think of other skills it could synergise with.

But it's been at least 2 years since I could do all that, now I look at a Mesmer bar and go "What?!".
