Hi,

There is no official guild wars forum to post this so I’ve decided to ask this here instead. I used to play guild wars a long time ago, but recently, I’ve wanted to try log back into guild wars again.

However the problem is I cannot seem to remember my username or password or the answers to my secret questions. I do however know that my guild wars account is linked to my guild wars 2 account. I was wondering if I could log into the guild wars client using my guild wars 2 account login / password?

I tried logging into the NC soft account management with my guild wars 2 account login / password but it wouldn’t work.

Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks

I don’t have a GW1 account linked but I found this post that should answer your question since you said the accounts are linked.

To find out is they are actually linked, log into your Guild Wars 1 account. If it is linked, the log in will now be the same as your Guild Wars 2 login. The link ties the two together and changes the Guild Wars 1 login to the Guild Wars 2 login.

If you try to log in and you have to use your original Guild Wars 1 login, then they are not linked.

I haven’t actually tried logging in when I linked my account years ago. But this is what it says on my account page:

Your Guild Wars accounts are linked

Congratulations! You have successfully linked your Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 accounts. In doing so, you now have access to the exciting rewards awaiting you inside the Hall of Monuments. The following Guild Wars 2 account information will now be used to log in to both Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2: MY EMAIL HERE

I’m not sure how it works because my old guild wars account had a different login ID to my guild wars 2 account. I’m currently downloading the basic guild wars client to see if I can log in.

Will keep this thread updated if I can log in.

Thanks for the help JustTrogdor!

Based on what I have read since your accounts are linked, you should be able to login to your GW1 account with your GW2 credentials.
