Guild Wars 2

So, I just recently got back into Guild Wars 2, new account and everything. I was hoping by this time ArenaNet would have a Restoration service for Deleted/Sold items and toons, yet it seems like they are still working on it.

I’m not happy about that, it means there is no safty net to fall into if a Hacker decides to push me. So, the next best thing I can do is look into what is the most secure option for my account then. Email or Moble Authentication?

Already got the Password covered, Unique, not used anywhere else, and 12 charecters long. Just need to know what of the two options uptop are the best choice for the most security.

Authenticator, especially if it is on a different physical device than the computer where you play the game.

There is a restoration service. See: https://en.support.guildwars2.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9274 for details and strings attached.

I have email authentication turned on but so far I haven’t needed it – I’ve never had a login attempt that wasn’t me. Admittedly I don’t know if they’ve even tried, but if they have then a unique password has been enough.

authenticator will always be more secure simply due to the fact that it generates a random number somewhat often (talking about every 30second or something, not sure on the exact time though) you need to type in to get access, where an email they “just” have to find out your password to your mail as well as your game account to login
