I'm not plugging the store, but Best Buy has Guild Wars on sale this week (December 4-10) for $29.99. Same price online. May be a good time to pick up a second copy or for a gift. Best price I've seen on the game.

Same here. At £17.99 it was so worth trying. And I'm still enjoying it several months later

If you buy a second copy how does it work? Do all eight slots share the same storage? Do you have to run seperate installs? Do all eight show up on the opening screen? I like the idea but would like to be able to pass cash and weapons down to my other players like I do now. If they are two sets of four that are independent of each other that would suck.

Currently they are two sets of 4. It is a pain to transfer things from one to the other, and they don't share unlocks.

How do you transfer between two accounts? Run both at once and trade between chars?

Run two versions of the game at once... on the game computer or two different computers and then trade between characters.

It won't be that big of a deal, because:

1) the second account will just be mules, I wont be playing them until A-net solves the storage issue.

2) the second acount will be on my laptop, so I can run both at the same time.

My plan is my second account will have one always in pre, 3 mules, and my first account will have a shuttle to go between pre and post.

I'm a pack rat, I have a guy that just has my weapon upgrades, clean max damage items, and vigor runes. My storage is filles with a few odds and end and crafting items.

Off topic, but will this game ever come out for Macs?

My wife has a Mac, and I'd love to have Guild Wars on both...

What's the point? why collect all them items and do nothing with it? Seems pointless if you ask me.

I use them all the time, for instance I forund a really nice max damage axe, my warrior is in kryta and will fight a lot of fire imps, I put on a icy and warding mod and now those fire imps better beware, their health just melts away when hit with an icy damage item. My monk has no armor, so I put on the staff a + 5 armor. Some times I sell them or give them away.

Im still unlear how this 2 account thing is supposed to work. Say i want to add a key to my existing account. Will i be able to switch back between accounts if i wish to play one or the other? or do i need 2 computers?

Hopefully i wont have to run multiple desktops and install/run 2 instances of the game at once

I really doubt it but it would be truly awesome if they did.

World of Warcraft also went on sale for a couple days after Thanksgiving for $24.99 at Best Buy. It's about time GW hit the $30 mark.
