I've finished all of the 3 campaigns and EotN
and now i'm really bored with the game, i created some new characters but its really boring to start the whole story all over again.
so lately i started to do alot of PvP but i got bored with it aswell.
Guild wars is a fun game but i think i've done everything
Do you guys know a way to make guild wars interesting again?

playing another game.

miskav · May 19, 2008, 04:30 PM // 16:30

Play something else.

If you're having to look for reasons to "make Guild Wars interesting", then yes play a different game. If you try to force yourself to like Guild Wars, you'll end up hating it.

Fill up your Hall of Monument.

Tatile · May 19, 2008, 04:33 PM // 16:33

Same as the above, try another game.
Anything at all. I suggest Rappelz, good pet system and takes forever to donwload! You'll either have to sleep or go outside while it installs :3

Hell with other games. Go join a softball league or something.

Idioteque · May 19, 2008, 04:34 PM // 16:34

that was fast
yeah maybe i will get another game.
i've been playing it for 8 months, and i see people who are playing it for more than a year how do they do it?

miskav · May 19, 2008, 04:34 PM // 16:34

Lol Tatile, Rappelz doesn't take that long to download, maybe an hour at most xD.

And Idioteque, I've been playing for 37 months :P I don't get bored fast.

No. Guild Wars really has pretty limited replayability as a PvE game. Most of the fun of replaying comes from playing with others - friends, guildies, random etc.

If you havent done it already, try and go get Legendary Guardian. Its the only title I can say I truly enjoyed. Brings you back into missions you might not otherwise return to do, brings back a little nostalgia, can be a lot of fun to pursue with a friend. Try to do it without UB and consumables too.

Outside of that, take a break for a while. Always when I came back I found something I wanted to do, at least for a little while. Good friends in game are of course key.

Have you tried the elite areas such as DoA, Urgoz, the Deep, Underworld, Fissure of Woe, and Sorrows Furnace? I started doing run in those areas with my guild and I can certainly say that my interest in GW has increased since then. It's also a good idea to try and find a really good guild, because just hanging out and doing random things with people you enjoy being around is lots of fun.

And if you're the type that doesn't mind a bit of grind, try going for some titles and filling out your HoM with as many things as you can cram into it!

Well, he wanted to make Guild Wars more interesting. And in my point of view, filling up HoM is fun and challanging and also give me some benefits for GW2 of what I have heard of.

I'm on a shared connection.
Ran the download overnight, got up in the morning and saw I still needed to get the patches.

Not fun.

Edit: Seriosuly, share your time between games and learning. Yes, learning. Well, I find it fun. Nothing beats a conversation about the Harm Principle and erotic 'literature'

I'm just being snide. Although, I do think that if you burn out just from completing the campaigns, the HOM-grind isn't going to be very engaging.

Richardt · May 19, 2008, 04:43 PM // 16:43

Time trials!

Or you know....like work on titles.

Or mix it up in a dungeon/elite area. Instead of taking the same old same old, just say you're looking for 2 healers and take a grab bag of other people and make it work. It's great fun to see how tatics change when you take a group of warriors and swap them for rangers

By finished, do you mean FINISHED, or do you mean completed the story-line? Because to really finish each campaign you need to Vanquish every area, then get Legendary Guardian, Skill Hunter, and so on. That's not to say you have to get title crazy, titles are a very give-or-take aspect of the game, but if you haven't vanquished and HM'd everywhere then you have missed many challenging areas in the game, so either do those, or accept the game isn't for you and do something else; it's not like you have to pay-to-play so either way you have nothing to lose, imho

That might be true. But I dont know about the OP (even if he said he feels like he've done everything), but by trying to fill up HoM makes you see more of what Guild Wars have to give.

Another thing that I myself are doing, is to try to get as fancy items and armors for my charecters and then go fully PvP with them. It's jsut a goal, I'm not at all near it. But it is fun to have it.

Fun? Maybe. Challenging? No. Mini's, armors, heroes can be bought, weapons too. And things like protectors, finishing elite (ahehahehh) areas isn't challenging thanks to the U and rsan. Because anyone can accomplish anything.

And yeah, HoM is not a way to get non-bored.

You mean more grind? Yeah, I've never seen so much of it before GWEN.

Dr Strangelove · May 19, 2008, 04:54 PM // 16:54

Just play something else. It's not as if there's a monthly fee holding you down forcing you to play. Guild Wars will always be there when and if you come back.

I've been playing for 32 months, I stop playing and restart all the time.
