Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, this is my first character in gw2 and just got my human rogue to lvl 25 through Queensdale and Kessex Hills. Should I go to lower level zones like Brisban Wildlands or should I just continue to Gendarran fields?

It depends how powerful you feel, if you think you die too much, do Brisban otherwise continue with Gendarran…

Just in case you didn’t know you can step right into Gendarran from Lions Arch (portal is in north of LA) which is handy. Also, if you head east from there, theres a 30-40 zone, Lorners Pass (or something like that) which is good to do as well…

You also have the option of going through the Asura stargate in Divinitys Reach to another group of zones…which are good fun too…the gate is in eastern Divinitys Reach…

I’m afraid I don’t have a direct answer for you, but I will try to help.

Where you go next really depends on how well the feel you have for your profession is among some other things.

How comfortable are you playing a thief?
Are you playing mainly by yourself or with a group?
How close to your current level is your gear?

These are just some of the questions that you have to ask yourself. Also Brisban isn’t your only choice. You can take the Asura portal from Divinity’s Reach to any of the other races main cities (Hoelbraek, Rata Rum, etc) and from there go to the other races starting zone (Wafarer Foothils, Metrica Province etc).

Personally I did all of the starting zones to get a feel for my first character before I started moving up in the zones. This gave me a bit of extra coin, a few more skill points, some traits and a just over all better time learning the game.

Hope this helped.

Good luck and happy hunting!

The level range in this game is really just there to tell you if a place is too high level. Other than that it’s just go where ever you want. The only other thing to be concerned about is crafting materials since those drop from level appropriate enemies. Gathering nodes are also the same. In both cases higher level isn’t necessarily better.

Lornar’s Pass is actually 25-40.

25 is a touchy place to be.
There’s four zones that are all 15-25. (Brisban, Kessex, Diessa, Snowden)
If you’re not completely confident, go and work another of these zones to get a few more levels.

Then there’s Gendarran, which is 25-35, and Lornar’s which is 25-40.

Given how fast you can move from one level area to another in a zone, I’d suggest getting up to around L30, then charge into Gendarran.
