Factions by a country mile. If they hadn't put in the locked gates it would have been perfect.

Prophesies had too much dead content for my liking, 6/8 of the areas are tutorial level zones, leaving you with only southern shiverpeaks and fireislands to actually play in.

Nightfall did give us heroes, but at the same time it introduced the abominations that are PvE skills, title effects and Junndu

- Prophecies
- Great storyline, pugs easy to get into, not too many skills/professions, good ol' memories.
- Pre-searing. Old Ascalon, northern shiverpeaks, droknar's forge, desert, great memories for all those places.
- Thunderhead Keep, best mission ever.
- Don't enjoy vanquishing.

Factions

Reason: 1) Assassins
2) 8 Chars + All skill points after noob island, Weh No Su without having to play to the #$@! Desert. No #$!!@ Desert. No #$!! Jungle. No !#!@ "Call to the Torment"

Echovald

All of them. Have to get guardian now

Prophecies.

If you follow the storyline, you have true character development.

Not only do you not get max armor until over 50% of the game is completed, you continue to get skills (and attribute points) along the way.

Factions and Nightfall simply catered to those that wanted to be max level with max armor and access to almost all skills, and wanted it now. There's nothing wrong with that, but that's not my playstyle.

Hands down prophecies. No title grinding, healthy economy, the game felt new and exciting.

QFT!!

I'd have to say Prophecies as i played from the about 2 months after the release. it was immense fun learning to play a game with the whole community. Everyone was figuring out what to do. When i look at some of my old screen shots i have to laugh at my builds, and I shudder to think of other peoples builds sometimes. Factions was great in terms asthetics but... grr those locked gates!!!

Favourite area to Vanquish.. none have been fun but i enjoyed the echovald forrest due to the difficulty level. Splinter barrage sucks!.

-Nightfall

-Reasons? I still love the story. I still remember playing it through the first time. It kept building in the sense of an upcoming civil war that would end with the death of Varesh and the extinction of her demon allies. Then to kill Varesh, finally realized that it's not the end and get tossed into a Nightmare realm to kill a god and worship the Goddess of Body Blocking? I love it.

-Desolation and most certainly the Realm of Torment.

-I do the Consulate Docks quite often just because it sounds great in 5.1

-I don't vanquish :P

-Name your favorite campaign: proph

-Reasons? 2-3 will do: It was long, great graphics, pre

-Pick 1 or 2 areas you love to play there: pre char area and SF

-A mission you will do once again: Ascention see how fast I can kill my dop.

-A zone you would like to vanquish / again: This is actually a few zones but 1 run: from becons to droks straight through, no consumables, no UB, no perma sin.

Prophecies.
Long storyline, first owned campaign, forgiving.
The Crystal Desert
Riverside Province
Magesty's Rest

Makes me wish I fixed my sound card. Proph sounds were amazing.
