I'll help most people with information. That, at least, is free. But for me to give my wealth to a stranger? It's rare. I'm far more likely to give my rare swords to friends that NEED it rather than some stranger who WANTS it. I don't help because I expect them to repay me. Personally, I'd rather give them their help and never hear from them again.

Is it worth it to help a stranger? In what sense? If you're expecting to have them in your debt, don't count on it. If you're expecting their sincere gratitude, don't count on that either. People help people that GENUINELY need help because they want to. Not to rub it in their faces. If you feel better about yourself for helping them, more power to you.

It's rarely worth the time of day giving stuff away because people are going to be using different stuff in a week anyway I find.

My two cents, if you* decide to be nice to people, be nice to them, the events that follows which may or may not happen after you are nice to them should not be taken into consideration. if you give something worth 100k to people, if they can sell it and get a 100k and consequently getting a very nice armor because you gave them something worth 100k, you should be happy that you help them get that armor, note you may or may not know it but you've made someone very happy i would think.

it is you*, and you only can decide to be nice to your fellow GW players or you want GW to be fill with unfriendliness.

*not indicating anyone by "you" just generally speaking.

Personally I'll help with any mission. I particularly like taking my Dervish into the Ascalon missions and helping people destroy them. It tickles me to see the mass damage on the weak enemies and I look like a god to new players,LoL. Now as far as loot goes I keep all the good skins, now if I find a low req, max damage weapon that is in a common skin I'll give it away in a heart beat even if it has +30 HP 15^50 and 20/20. The common skin won't give me enough money to even make it worthwhile to try to trade and the upgrades aren't worth salvaging most of the time.
