The game isn't based on items. They aren't going to add any rare items in. And this should have been in the sanitarium section anyway.
Edit: I should rephrase that. They aren't gong to add in any ub3r rare items. They do have rare items, but the bonuses are minor compared to what you'll find from rare items in other games.

I actually disagree.. Wow is a good game, bit buggy but still good.
I like this game more because it focuses on gameplay, and strategy.
Its way more fun questing in this game. However, instances in WoW are hard to beat.

Well, thats just your bag. I personally like this game better because players are awarded for skill, not months played consecutively

Can anyone say... Grind?
Side note on the matter of ranking: Yeah, they get a rank. Guilds with ranks can very possibly earn things OF ACTUAL MONETARY VALUE. >.>

Far better rewards than a +2 Robe of Wizardry.

How long have you been playing? Not long I guess. Well the first really rare weapon I have ever found was near the Gates of Kryta, so you should probably spend you time getting better at playing than looking for an ub3r b00mst!ck.

If you're having so much fun playing WoW, why are you here wasting time bashing another game? At least we have reason to be on the boards here since we love the game. Go back to WoW and bring your horrid spelling and typing skills with "U"

You're on the wrong forum if you are trying to get support for your comments.
What players are rewarded with depends on which PvP type you're playing, or if it's PvE. Victory rewards can be things like: experience, items, improved ladder ranking, account rank.
As for the rares, yesterday I found two purple items, and they felt pretty rare to me, much rarer than the blue ones. We've also won a yellow item in the Hall of Heroes, and that was even rarer (and really good too).

WoW is fun for a week...then it has nothing. WoW sucks due to that one fact.
GW is free to play AND it is the most fun I've had playing a MMORPG yet. Also this game has better and a whole lot more PvE than WoW. PvP is better here too.

u must be referring to the new update WOW has, their "honor system" ie. uniq armor sets/ uniq weps/ uniq armored mounts.
the thing is there are rare/uniq items already. (purple and yellow colored items. u just havent seen them yet ) and when u refer to them as "suck", i think u mean their "balanced" cuz this is actually the 1st game ive seen that's well balanced w/ weps/armor vs. monster/enemies. most rpg-types
go right out w/ better item = faster ownage of enemies, which really makes the game repetitive quickly, or u dont have to work hard for them, w/ GW its actually gets u to take time and customize your build's gear's advantages/disadvantages.
ive seen pics of them(purple/yellow) and their stats just really wanna make u play more / get farther in the game, just to get them yourself.
also. WoW has been on for pretty long now w/ added updates. since GW is still @ its 1st week of release, i dont think youve seen everything the game has to offer.
plus. the ingame content is already pretty big, by the time most ppl experience half of the full release stuff (unless u play 24/7 -lucky b'stardz), they will have released "chapters/expansions", which will offer even more content/items/storyline/etc. that i cant wait to see.
these are just my opinions of what ive seen so far for the game.
again. im only suggesting relax, chill in the game, u might find something good in the way while playing it more.
and plz let's deter from bashing WoW while comparing to GW, WoW is still a good/fun looking game and from what ive read, i woulda tried it if i just didnt think the monthly fee is a bit steep for me. their both good games.
*end transmission...

Actually I dont have to admit this because I think this game is much better than WoW. Especially in the PvP aspect. I played WoW and got bored with it rather quickly. So far I have played in the BWE's and have loved Guild Wars.
The great thing about Guild Wars is that with no monthly charge I can also play another MMO if I want and not feel like im wasting my money.

Don't worry, you can tell by other posts he wants a grind based game where superiority comes from the uber-junk you find. If we ignore them they might go home
