New Professions

Hey,

Im currently playing Prochecies and i have just bought the other games and they are on there way.
I want to know can i play the new professions in Prochecies, like starting off in ascalon? to lvl up with a mate that hasnt picked a new profession.

Thanks Sean

No. You can't start, for instance, as an assassin in Prophecies.

You can however take a character into prophecies from another campaign. You'll end up in Lion's Arch, and you can just go to Ascalon from there, and play through as normal

Yes you can TheHarrowed but without a running build it will be a painfully slow process fighting your way from LA to Ascalon. Few people run it these days so you might want to get a runner on the forum in the services offered section before you concider bringing your canthan/elonian character to prophecies with the goal to reach Ascalon. I also want to give you some advice Elrad, you really should stick to the core professions when your not an experienced player (which you can't really be without having played trough every campaign at least) all cantha/elona specific professions, with ritualist as an exception to certain extend, are less versatile and harder to play then the core professions (my experience, this is debatable). I've had them all but in the end I enjoy my Warrior, Monk, Ranger and Necromancer most. Don't feel limited by the challenge any profession might have for you tho, the fun in Guildwars is to minimalize your professions weaknesses and maximize it's good parts.

Thanks for the help guys,

Thanks Jensyea for you comments on the matter.
From what you have said i might take you advice and look in to the core
professions first then, and see what happens from there.

Thanks Sean

after an extremely long week one boring summer holidays.....

what am i looking at here

An assassin in pre-searing. Technically impossible. Must be a TexMod/photoshop or some such thing.

Not completely true. When a character goes to areas on other campaigns previous to his/her arrival point there will be no quests available and the missions will not grant any rewards. This is because while the character (lets say he's canthan) is on Shing Jea Island the Tyrians would be doing the Ascalon stuff.

An extremely texmoded picture.
Look at the skills. 3 of them don't exist and the other four are icons from different professions. also, no regen arrows on the energy bar

its not a texmod...

its a private server look at the skill bar...

really...???

It's highly unlikely to be a private server. You can TexMod skill icons like you can with everything else.

Well, another thing wrong with the pic is that the assassin is all alone. Like there's ever a moment when there's noone dancing under those stairs in their undies in presearing...

Good luck texmodding the entirety of Pre-sear around the 'sin, or vice versa. There are private servers created exactly for this purpose, as well as the ability to use any skill possible.
But I can't tell from the pixels...

On the other hand a copy and paste with photoshop only takes few mins, and the sin looks wrong enough there to be a collage.

And...maybe you can use any skill possible, but I doubt you can put margonite bounty on your bar

it is a private server no photoshopping done at all! im an IT college student and got bored and yes on the private server you have full ability to add ANY skill in the game, creature or player ones. Sadly I couldnt make combat actually work.


it looked wrong there because it was on my old spare PC and I had the graphics set to low if I remember correctly xD

Question has been answered, and as this is not a discussion forums..
