Guild Wars 2

Just wondering what advice I should be getting. I don’t like building specific builds for end-game content (Such as fractals) and prefer to try out builds on my own time for instance, and I know a large part of MMO communities don’t like it when people don’t abide by “OP” or “The best” skill sets in the game for a particular class.

I was never able to do Season 1, so I have nothing from it, nor do I have anything from Season 2. I left before Season 1 even started so…. I also don’t have legendaries (I think) and have a level 80 with no fractal gear :P

I’ve been here since Dec 2012 and I don’t have a legendary or ascended fractal gear either. I still play the game and I still enjoy it.

I’m an explorer so I like finding things. I’m also a trader so I enjoy finding niches on the market where I can make some gold before they disappear forcing me to look for another one. But that’s me. What do you enjoy doing in an MMO? That might give us an idea what to suggest.

I like enjoying the games for the story and the world itself. I’m not big on Player Versus Player either. I’ve never been fond of big guilds in MMOs, and prefer smaller ones. I also sometimes like kicking back and gathering nodes as well.

I’m not good at stealth, timing or platforming either so…. I’m trying to currently finish Tyria world map completion on my guardian, with only about 10-20% left to go I think. I’m almost done with the Wv3 maps, just the far right borderlands to go.

Well you may not know that the WvW maps are no longer counted toward world completion. But feel free to clear them, it just may take some time as your world rotates among the colors.

And basically you described me.

Oh, I am so glad that the WvW maps are no longer needed. But, we’ll eventually find out I suppose if it’s true.

And wow, a lot has changed. Hero Points instead of skill points… and the new way traits are unlocked.

Welcome back OP.

I took a break too, though probably shorter than you did. I was lost for the first few days but then I settled in again.

I love that we don’t have to clear WvW anymore. So much more sensible I think.

Another good thing that happened while we were both away was the change to the personal story. You can now solo the final Arah bit. Well, maybe good players can. My friend and I managed to muddle through together after putting it off for such a long time.
