Hey guys, I just hit level 80 on my Norn Guardian. This is my first and only character and I am a noobie with what to do end game. I’ve done some reading on karma farming in the ruins of Orr, Dungeons, Etc. But I’m really not sure which path to go.

I don’t even know what the karma you farm in the ruins of Orr is used for. I scoped out some of the armor I want and decided the Nightmare Armor looks pretty cool and would like to get that. How would I go about doing this? I just feel kind of lost right now, can you guys give me any advice?

Thanks

If I remember right, the nightmare armour comes from the Twilight Arbor dungeon. You get tokens for completing it in Hard Mode that you can collect to buy that armour from the vendor in Lion’s Arch. I would suggest looking up the dungeons in the wiki for GW2 or something. A little reading can go a long way.

This thread should probable be in the players helping players forum anyways.

Good luck in any case.

It’s a game forum. The truth is not to be found here.

I recommend playing around with each avenue for a few days. I personally do dungeons and/or help my gf with world exploration.

Before you start doing ANYTHING, I would HIGHLY recommend that all your armor and jewelry be level 80 and of Master (green) quality. If you are unsure what type of masterwork armor you want, get level 80 masterwork Knight’s armor and Emerald jewelery.

Since you seem interested in a dungeon set, I would recommend doing Ascalonian Catacombs (dungeon in charr starting area) before delving into anything more complex. The dungeon is straight forward and can ease you in to the difficulty of mobs.

If you want the Nightmare Armor, you will need to do the Twilight Arbor dungeon in Caledon Forest (sylvari starting area). You get 60 tokens for the first run per path per day. So doing each path once in a day will net you 180 tokens. Subsequent runs on each path will only yield 20 tokens. These totals do not include bags of goods (don’t worry about those).

Some people like to just farm an area in orr, which is cool, too. I can’t personally recommend an area since I haven’t farmed there in a while, but perhaps someone else can answer that question in detail.

Good luck

Here’s what people thought of GW1 when it first came out: http://tinyurl.com/bntcvyc
“A release is 7 days or less away or has just happened within the last 7 days…
These are the only two states you’ll find the world of Tyria.”

I would also recommend checking out WvW.

When you first start, look for a commander (blue squarish icon on the map view) and go to him/her. Run with a zerg (big group of people) for a while until you get the hang of it.

I find it more challenging than most PVE content, so expect to die a lot when you first start.

Anything I post is just the opinion of a very vocal minority of 1.
