Two things: PvP and titles! Get a good guild and climb the guild ladder! Try to become famous! GW has many things to do! My goal is to someday achieve the title God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals. :P

I'd recommend doing titles. Really grind for those titles. Sunspear and Lightbringer take some time and are rather easy to get, try that out. Do elite missions, urgoz warren, the deep, DoA, all fun stuff. But I'm getting the same way, I'm slightly bored with regular PvE cause I've started countless chars and beat a campaign or two with them then deleted them. Thats why I'm doing lots of AB, although even that gets freaking repeitive. All agmes in history will never really be able to retain the feeling you get when you first play.

Or you could just wait for GW2. That'll take up alot of your time. I plan to become integrated with my PC when that comes out

PvP is pretty much the only replayable content.

Pretty steep learning curve though, if you plan on playing high-end GvG, prepare for one hell of a struggle to get there.

PvP, but after 3 years I even lost interest in that because there is nothing new.

PvP or titles, IMO.

I went for titles for a while, made it to 25. I was about to farm for some money sinks (Drunkard/Life of the Party) but I spent all the cash made with my permasin in UW on random items for the hell of it, then slowed down to a point where I'd log on for 1-2 minutes to check on the guild once every 2-3 days. I did that for about 2 months, I'm just getting back in the game myself...

But I've got plans; I'm gonna get there slowly, but I'm gonna get GWAMM. I've started farming again, doing some HFFF to boost my Kurz title (halfway to R6) and I'm gonna try to get in HA groups with a friend of mine, who started PvPing as well.

Should keep me busy for a while.

There isn't much if repetition is what gets you. PvP is the epitome of repetition and grinding titles makes me want to smash puppies. So I play a little, delete char, make a new one, take a break, wait for GW2.

For all these people saying,"Just leave, PvE is dead.."etc.

If you'd get into GvG, which was the intended original path for players to take, you'd discover how fun the format is.

Also - FPS's suck. There's only so many stupid nuances you can add with reload times and shit like that.

The problem is - find 7 people that like GvG like you do. I love it, but out of, let's say (can't remember exactly) 10 guilds, only 2 were doing GvG's, only 1 of them was GvG-only. Others tried one time or another, but failed.

You are generalizing. I like all FPSes, but some of them only single-player (Crysis, CoD, Hellgate xD), and others are multiplayer. But from multiplayer games, I like only tactical/teamplay games, like Enemy Territory/Quake Wars or Counter Strike. Same reason why I like Guild Wars - playing in a team, where 1 vs 1 usually means nothing.


About nuances - what about recharges, aftercasts, resistances, armor and damage calculations, boss properties, environmental effects and so on in GW? ;p
