Guild Wars 2

With just the serial code/key you received? If I bought guild wars off of someone and they gave me the key. Would they be able to just submit a ticket and provide and serial key and say they were hacked?

He/she could, possibly. You have broken the ToS, as did he/she by purchasing an account from someone else.

You can use said account, but will not be able to receive support as there will always be the issue of whose account it is, and if 2 people dispute the ownership, the account will be permanently terminated.

Your best bet is to buy your own account from ArenaNet or an Authorized Retailer.

Good luck.

Do you know if g2a is an authorized retailer? I know they sponsor a lot of streamers but they seem suspicious to me

Here is the list of authorized retailers you can select by country you reside in and either retail or digital download:

Your best bet is to purchase from GW2 the GW2 site:

There have been two significant sales over the past few months via the GW2 sales site so if you are looking for a legitimate version and want to save some money keep your eyes open as I imagine there will be a few more sales before the release of HoT.
