White/no gear challenge
I (necro) prefer the no armor challenge myself though it is much harder in high level areas.
Do you run around naked? What about weapons? I noticed Staves without stats are impossible to get. The only one out there is the Elementalist starter choice staff, but it is Bind on Acquire. Do your pets tank a lot? My Guardian has the Summon Sword and Hammer, but i feel it’s cheating.
I have reached level 12 on my Guardian without stats, i have most weapons acquired from the beginner class choices. So far i am really enjoying it. Every time i face two monsters it’s so exciting and i have to do my best to survive. I am quite useless in Champion events and the like, scoring at most a silver medal. But i don’t mind. Veterans are fun to fight and it takes a while too.
Sometimes it’s not fun though, when you have 50-75% of your health and some NPC one shots you with his special move.. Guess it can’t be avoided. I suggest someone else try it too if they are considering it, it’s a lot of fun!

A fun challenge would be: only use equipment which you find, youre not allowed to buy them anywhere or get form ogher players. When equipment gets damaged upon death, you must destroy it.
Or you can jus run around naked in the first place, itll be fun!
Guardians and warriors can kind of auto attack through the whole game :/, i recommend mesmer or thief or ele or something, but thats just personal style

I took on a similar challenge in GW1 by finishing all of the missions in Prophecies with my ranger using nothing but starter armor and bow using only Henchmen (before Heroes were even introduced into the game).
It was quite fun and challenging. Many of the missions took several attempts, but that was the fun of it.
Edit:
It was also quite fun having Infused starter armor, lol.
Logic will never win an argument on the forums…..only a sense of entitlement will.
