I read in an Anet interview something along the lines of "In Prophecies we established a player home early on but then destroyed it to move the plot along. This left some players feeling lost and dis-satisfied as they had nowhere they could 'relax'"

Now, those weren't the exact words but you get the jist. Even if you don't think about it to much there is a place somewhere in game you think of as a home for your character.

Mine is definitely the HoM. I always return there if I know I'm not going to play my ele for a day or three, and I go there after dungeons and such to sell my stuff.

So where's yours?

- Guild Halls
- Main cities (Ascalon, LA, etc.)
- Other cities (ToA)
- Outposts that lead to popular farming areas

Lions Arch or Kamadan basically. Usually Kamadan for my Nightfall characters, and Lions Arch for my Prophicies characters. However, I'd have to say a majority of my characters go to rest in LA.

Good topic by the way, I've always been curious about this particular subject in the community.

LA, even though i hate it there lol

Each of my characters have their own homes...

Warrior - Droknar's Forge. His Ascalon armor makes him nice and toasty there.

Ranger - Tomb of Primevil Kings. One of my favorite places to hang out to hear some semi non-intelligent conversation, and kill the occasional Grasp that slips through the gate.

Necro - Temple of Ages. Mostly for trade chatter and to help out the occasional PuG.

Ritualist - Fisherman's Haven. By far my favorite town with my favorite character.

Dervish - homeless. She's my active character, so she normally doesn't camp out anywhere. You can find her in Rata Sum trying to solo Oola's quest right now.

I move around a lot, but recently I've been 'kicking it' in Kamadan. As a cartographer I find it hard to stay in one place. From a lore-side though, Doomlore Shrine is Tatile's homestead, where she keeps her books and food. Generally though, I'd say my Guild Hall.

My guild hall probably, but that is a cheap answer. My main character is Tyrian, but my first was Canthan, therefore I have always felt particularly drawn to and comfortable in Kaineng Center. That is normally my first stop when I want to buy or sell something and usually where I will go to when setting up a party for a canthan mission.

All my characters rest in the safety of my Guild Hall

Redfeather1975 · Jan 07, 2008, 06:46 PM // 18:46

Same with me Old Man of Ascalon.
My main character is Tyrian, yet I find myself going to kaineng centre the most in order to chat, buy, sell, ect.

Proff · Jan 07, 2008, 06:47 PM // 18:47

Anywhere in EotN for me.

I think the fact that it isn't a crap hole helps too. Lions arch is all moldy and Kamadan is just full of nooby players spamming for Docks runs.

Kaineng is nice, clean, imperial and everything seems to be pretty handy and not spread out to much. (Storage in Lions Arch seems like it's on the other side of a 18 hole golf course from where you normally spawn in.)

If you need to find my ele he will be on wizard isle in the lighthouse he calls home. Ready to drop a nuke on any who invade the [Yeti] hall.

Big_Daddy · Jan 07, 2008, 06:54 PM // 18:54

I like to hang out at Droknar's Forge. That place has a special place in my heart. I remember the first time I saw it, I thought it was HUGE and a new place to start adventures.

Slabby · Jan 07, 2008, 06:55 PM // 18:55

Fishermen's Haven is by far the most relaxing outpost for me, I just love it to sit afk on the island.

I used to agree with you, then they moved the (*)*)*$£)£) chest to the island and ruined it.

My mules reside in Tsumei, except for 1 at the Monastery that I haven't bothered to walk over there.

Characters I'm not currently playing are usually in Kaineng City. Ones I am playing I usually leave where I last played them.

Kaineng and LA also have the way out place that you can sit and be alone in.
I think Kaineng's way out place isn't so easy to notice, and I rarely see people in it.

Catrion-Leyt · Jan 07, 2008, 07:09 PM // 19:09

I don't have one. I "camp" wherever I logout at, which depends, of course, on what I am doing at the time.
