Well Guild Wars has almost done a complete flashback again of eight months ago when I left Guild Wars to play a different game. I came back about 4 months after I so called quit and was having fun to start. Now that I have accomplished most of what I wanted that made me continue playing I have nothing left to do. I have done most of the elite missions in the game and have earned a fair amount of money. Have one more title on my title junkie until I have my GWAMM character. I have thought about PvP, but thats just not my thing. Also thought about a second title character but now that I think of it I don't want to do that again

So I have come to you for some advice. What can I do so I don't have to quit and this for good.

Not much. You've done all the PvE mostly, and you're not going to PvP. Every game's gotta end sometime. Best time for that is when it stops being fun.

Wish Swiftdeath · May 22, 2009, 01:11 AM // 01:11

The game is about improving yourself as a player (PvP).

Chicken is right, unless you like making money there isn't alot to do in PvE, you can always take a break and come back, you'll find it fun again at the start.

Playing Guild Wars without PvPing is like only experiencing 1/4 of the game. Not willing to even get into PvP, i'm extremely surprised you've stayed a GW player for this long. Move to another game, i believe that's the only hope you have.

as a longtime PvE guy who has been there from the very start, and has (within a few hours of playtime) 34 titles, I'd suggest one of three things:

1. If you aren't already, get in an active advance PvE alliance, and go for the Zaishen dailies, trying to get KoaBD on your non-main, and doing HM elite areas

2. Buy a 2nd acct, just play for fun with no intention of getting a single title, and try out crazy builds (also go for Nicholas gifts and montly Zaishen predictions to give to your primary acct)

3. Quit until GW2

Apollo Smile · May 22, 2009, 01:38 AM // 01:38

Play other games. They do exist.

iVendetta · May 22, 2009, 01:39 AM // 01:39

Wait for GW2.

Shadowspawn X · May 22, 2009, 01:45 AM // 01:45

After GWAMM the pve is over move on. Blow your cash on some goodies and just check in from time to time while waiting for GW2.

brawler · May 22, 2009, 02:41 AM // 02:41

I suppose I could try PvP again. And I do have a KoaBD on my alt character. I have played this game for 42+ months, maybe it is about time..

Skyy High · May 22, 2009, 03:21 AM // 03:21

Could play the daily ZQuests for fun...PUGs actually make those somewhat enjoyable for someone who's done basically everything, because you can relax and screw around with your builds for lulz.

Well I started playing Crusader Kings + Dues Vult expansion by Paradox Entertainment and The Guild 1400 Gold by Jowood recently and it's been more of a blast than GW. At least you can set your own difficulty levels and adjustments in those two games unlike GW which basically has two modes... completely easy and completely rediculously hard (in some places).

See there just isn't anything you can do to keep yourself from quitting again. GW is just too boring once you've completed the chapter storeis. There's no more levels to obtain after the paultry 20 and there's no loot content to speak of once you get 15^50 and +30hp and +20% HSR mods oh and the 20/20 sundering mod lol. It's just a dry repetitive boring game of the same thing day after day. Go out kill same mobs you've killed 100 times before and reap the same paultry crummy loot you've gotten before. (with exception of the maxed mods you've already gotten before). I see no point unless you are a GRIND WARS player now. Anet could have kept this interesting with continued AA points like Everquest and continued loot content and at least up to level 99 like Diablo 2 did it. It's just a carebear candyland game now and just no reason to continue the reptition unless you just like bashing teenagers and 6 year olds in the PVP arenas.

Sad to hear this Cole

But honestly, just come PvP, it is extremely fun when you can dedicate time to it, and you've got people that you know with you. As soon as I max my GWAMM I know that's what I'm doing

Nerel · May 22, 2009, 04:33 AM // 04:33

Move on to the wonderful world of rank discrimination and random abuse, I mean PvP or stay in PvE and start working on your NEXT gwammm, either that or find a high end (lol) PvE guild for elite area farming (UWSCs etc).

If neither of those sound fun, as others have suggested, time to move on, find a new game that you find fun... and sell me all your stuff nice and cheap before you go.

I like that idea...

Azure mist · May 22, 2009, 04:40 AM // 04:40

Buy minis, hero armor, dedicate torm destroyer weapons, UWSC, and if u don't pvp u suck at guild wars

Eragon Zarroc · May 22, 2009, 04:59 AM // 04:59

just do speed clears nowadays, lol. thing that makes playing this game enjoyable anymore is mostly my guildies, lol. i would do pvp if i felt i could dedicate myself to it the way i shoudl, but meh.

eldrethv · May 22, 2009, 06:25 AM // 06:25

The main reason I still play is because of my guild.
It doesn't get old if you've got good friends to play with.

As for PvP,
my guild just makes up terrible team builds and GvGs
Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose, It's fun either way.
I'd give this a go

garethporlest18 · May 22, 2009, 06:58 AM // 06:58

Go to a town, sit, see what happens. Or ya know, play something else.

Wrath of m0o · May 22, 2009, 08:01 AM // 08:01

1. UWSC
2. FoWSC
3. Urgoz HM
4. Deep HM

7. GWAMM#2 before GW2 is out.
8. JQ
9. FA
10. AB
11. RA
12. HA

I dont know man..there's tons of stuff to do in this game..when i get bored i go play PokerStarz.net
The best thing about this game is you can put it down when ever you want..and its still there for you.
Read a book..
Calculate how many years before the Sun burns out..

You can hunt for traveler items to trade for gifts.

Oh, yes, that sounds excellent. Let's make a game where players who devote the most time have the best gear (which is obviously gotten through pve), and where there are ridiculously high levels which take literal weeks to achieve (this is assuming you have a job/school. When sitting at the computer for 18 hours a day uninterrupted, amazing things can be accomplished in game.) Oh, and because a game gives equal footing in terms of gear to all players, this somehow makes it a carebear game. Too bad you "leet, non-carebear players" can't dominate because your full time gaming lifestyle doesn't equate to skill. Just to let you know, I doubt you would even be able to assemble a team to "bash teenagers and 6 year olds in the PVP arenas."
Well I'm done with that tirade.
