Guild Wars 2

I actually got 2x max level character but still dont know many things. What’s best way to get equipment? Buying it from other players in black shop? Why every class is using 2 weapons? What’s wrong if I’m using only shortbow playing ranger? How to get a lot of gold? Is it worth to crafting, which profession choose and is it expensive till I can do good things myself? When I reach maximum level I can do story, explore world, Wvw, making dungeons, what else? Should I focus on maining one class? This game is so expanded, how long can it take to be a good player? I’ll take all tips with pleasure

There are many ways to get gear, but the fastest will generally be to buy it on the trading post. However, not all stat sets are available for sale. Most of these must be earned with map currency or crafted.

Why 2 weapons? The answer is that it offers a completely different set of skills that ideally covers situations where your other weapon set is inadequate. For instance, a character using a melee weapon may wish to have a ranged set to fall back on when being at close range isn’t feasible. Or if all of your weapon skills are on cooldown, it can be nice to have a second set of cooldowns to fall back on. There really isn’t a disadvantage to using a second weapon set. That’s why people do it.

There are many ways to earn gold. But unless you are the type of person who finds it easy to motivate themselves with the acquisition of gold alone, I recommend pursuing other goals you find interesting. In the process, you will earn gold.

I recommend waiting on crafting until some other goal you choose to pursue requires it. The trouble with crafting is that you generally save very little gold crafting the gear yourself compared to buying it on the TP or especially via currencies earned by participating in various content. So crafting is generally more useful when you need it for something you can’t easily buy such as HoT stat gear.

When you reach 80 you can do whatever you like. Group PvE options include dungeons, fractals, raids, and world bosses. If you have HoT, you’ll probably want to work toward unlocking masteries. You can do PvP and WvW. You can work toward map completion, storyline completion, whatever you want. There is no right or wrong way to go about it. It all comes down to what you want to do.

The same goes for the choice to main one class or many. I tend to get fixated on one class at a time, but sooner or later I try something else and that becomes my focus. Try different weapon sets, too. That can drastically change how your class plays. And don’t be afraid to explore other classes. A lot of the goals you’ll be working toward are shared across the account, not per character. So there’s relatively little cost in doing so.

To add to these two point.

1. Personally, I buy everything from the market. I refer the one in Rata Sum. It has the same stuff, but the chat is more interesting. Plus, those Asura are so self possessed, they make me laugh.

2. To be a half decent player you really need to keep playing about 23 hours a day. I suggest you get a load of bottles and some wet wipes. Plus glucose drinks, caffeine, and anything else you can think of.

But remember, that will only make you half good.

That’s when you read the forums, of course.
