Curse

Please excuse any spelling or grammatical errors, as I have a new keyboard and am still adjusting to it.

Now, for most people, all the accomplishments us newbs make is NOTHING compared to things level 20's do every day.

For me, I have only had GW for about a week and a half or so. One of my warriors is a level 20, accomplished in 4-5 days without factions. Not really a screenshot to prove that but I'll get to them as well.

Just recently i taught myself a running-build to run from yaks bend to borlis pass for tips, and the money is coming in slowly but surely. (Tips range from 15 to 500 so I take almost anything)

But earlier on, back when my warrior was a lowly level 10; I entered the ascalon arena and had the luck to team up with someone who could already afford glads armor. (I don't want any of you rich jackasses going "OMG THAT R CHEAP1!1") and probably had a kick-butt weapon along with it.
Well normally, I've never gotten past 2-4 consecutive wins. But this time:\, I reached 15 consecutive wins. Though then a team of four level 10's came in and cleaned our mess RIGHT UP. Thus losing the spree.

However 30 minutes of trial and error in the arena, i found another dominating team that led me up to 19 wins.
Again, this may be a newbish accomplishment to some of you, as I've heard people get up to 35 and mess like that.

I feel no real need to censor the names, since this is actually complimenting on a job well done and not flaming anyone. However if I get reported or get complaints in this thread I will happily make an edited version to blacken all the names out, as I've seen done in a few other threads.

Nicely done >_<. I had 15k armor on lvl 1 once lol now you made me feel bad about it ^_^. Nah j/k. Great job on that arena and I once soloed a team of 4 with my whammo about a year ago

I hate the concept of 15k armor, it's the SAME stats only "different" looks (not even better looks, just different.)

But in this pic i'm just using normal ascalon-grade 150 ascalon armor.

I'll be posting what my warrior looks like in the "post your warrior" thread soon now, gonna go take a series of screenshots now.

Huh? 150AL.. hacker

Phenixfire · Jul 22, 2006, 11:05 PM // 23:05

well, you me/w was a iw mesmer for sure, accroding to the used weapon..

iw can be capped in the drok area and missions, means he got rushed, got his skills and stuff and then went to the arena with his 'overpowered' stuff to get easy consecutives..

dont wanna know about the necro what skills he used.

it would have been a real accomplishment to do that without any stuff normally acquired much later in the game.

nevertheless, didnt want to ruin your achievement, and hope didnt, congrats anyway.

@Phenix: Well tons of people do that all the time, i'm just never one of them. I can always get runs and rushes to high level areas with my friends, but i never have the funding to get mentioned armor. So to me it's still an accomplishment.

congrats! i hope you have many more accomplishments to be proud of

With the first character that I played the game through (this a Me/R, first char ever was an elementalist that I deleted after leaving pre-searing), I wanted to explore the whole pre-searing. Once I got to the Northlands I discovered that the charr are proving to be a nice challenge to wipe out completely.
After several attempts of taking on the charr groups solo, I got pretty good at it. I ended up doing many more runs to the Northlands alone after that and slaughtered all of the charr from there on each run. I always found it funny how the big and strong warriors were shouting in Ascalon for monks to help them in charr killing, when all I needed as a mesmer was someone to open the door for me.

Anyway, I was curious how high level I could get before the exp would slow down too much for it to be boring. Here being the result.
(My killer skills and names removed.)

I think I was a bit ahead in levels than the regular players when I reached 20 at Druid's Overlook.

Sadly I have the crappiest level 20 on the planet. Reason being is that I can't take on or kill any other level 20's which in my opinion is pathetic.

So my early accomplishments are cool but my warrior still sucks obscene amounts of ass.

@Rath: LOL, you censored your pets name? WHY?

Congrats on the accomplishement. I've seen 100 + @ascalon arena though. And sure when u don't have the cash for it 15k seems stupid

Well i did have cash to probably afford two pieces at one time, but the "paying for looks" is just stupid.

100+, meh. This thread is titled newbish accomplishments for a reason.

Ganik Thress · Jul 23, 2006, 11:50 PM // 23:50

Meh, I play the game 25% for the visual experience, the other 75% for all that other techno-mumbo-jumbo. I just think certain 15k armors look far superior than 1.5k armors, so I go with those, so that my 25% is fully satisfied.

Maybe you need to expand your skill list?

Bit late, deleted Hemotep Rethan. The Crappy part is my guild doesn't recognize it and when i invite pople it still says "(Also: Hemotep rethan)" under my name. Grr. I have a new pride: My monk ^_^ Only level 13 but can heal even level 20's back up to full within seconds (Granted they aren't being pounded by 8 things of course)

Here's two more neat things, they're full images so not good to IMG tag them.

This first one is pre-searing, with my level 8 Elementalist. Me and a ranger assaulted a Charr Temple, which I suggested we go around at the time.

We killed them all, we sure did. but it only leveled me about 53 percent. Too bad.

This second one happened earlier, with my R/W (Which is pretty awesome, but if I don't get a new bow soon I'm gonna start sucking just like my warrior) This was an arena battle where three of us leveled up to 11 (in a 1-10 arena) and the other guy had grottos armor, I think. Never been there, never seen it but he did mention grottos.
I guess this isn't much of an accomplishment since he had uber armor and like 15 levels in blood magic. We got to like 20 consecutive wins. It was great, I've never seena player bring so many tanks to their knees before. I pity that necro's future foes.
