Guild Wars 2

Yaos.4528:

Originally I was filling buy orders, but I forgot there’s a million or two people looking through the Trading Post and switched to sell orders and every highly traded commodity sells very quickly.

Agree 100%. I almost never blindly fill buy-orders or sell-orders, when I’m using the TP. You can almost always put in a custom order, and make some extra coin. I’ve been finding they’re filled before I have a chance to switch over to the pick-up tab.

@Shael .. OP isn’t talking about Overflow servers. They’re trying to join a world that’s currently full.

OP, just create a character on whatever world, and transfer when their world isn’t full. Transfers are free right now, and you can usually get in during off-peak times.

You need to either kill what’s attacking you, or bring your health up.

The first three options are attack options. (for my engineer, the 1st throws junk at the mob, the 2nd .. I’m not sure, I don’t use it .. the 3rd has a long cool-down, but does a pretty good explosion that does a bunch of damage and knocks enemies back). Mash keys, and hope to kill the mob. The fourth option applies a bandage, which will slowly heal you. Only useful if there isn’t a mob currently wailing on you. Other players can help revive you.

Server transfers are free right now, so go ahead and create your character on another server and start playing.

“Full” isn’t a permanent thing. I went through a similar thing trying to join friends’ server. Just check back periodically, especially during slow times.

You shouldn’t have to make heaps of trash to level up. I’ve found I don’t need to make much more than enough to clothe my character. Make sure to use the discovery tab as much as possible as you make far more XP discovering something new than by making something you already know.

This is the first MMO I’ve played where I’ve actually been able to do a pretty good job of keeping my crafting level on par with my character level. I have to buy a few odds and ends on the TP, but it’s not bankrupting me.

Someone from that guild needs to invite you. I’m not sure how you would contact them, unless you know the names of some of their members.

I cannot recall ever recieving mat recipies for crafting…

Recipes are either discovered through the Discovery pane at the crafting station, or purchased with Karma.

5, if the character selection screen is any indication. :P

Ujest.6548:

Full means no accounts can currently choose that server as their home server unless they are already there.

Key work, currently. Check back periodically, especially during slow times, and you should be able to get into the server you want.
