Guild Wars 2

I spent about 2.5 hours in WvW last night. I can confirm I will not (willingly) be doing this after I hit rank 14, but I do have to admit it isn’t as bad when just leeching off of a group.

I am now halfway to rank 10 (so about 25k experience gained total, of the 49k I need for rank 14). During this I encountered 2 ‘zergs’ that started around 20-25 people and gradually dropped down to 3-5 people. Basically every other zerg we encountered trampled us (except for 1, which we just barely defeated), so that was fun.

And @Straegen, sure it takes a lot longer to get the PvE content, but that’s okay with me. I play GW for the PvE content, so I’d be doing that anyway.

I actually am a full Berserker Revenant (or Herald really). And I’m sorry, but I am not gonna change my build for a one time 3 hour session of WXP farming (tho I’ll be activating every single booster I have and can get my hands on to reduce that).

It might not feel like PvP, but last saturday I was doing the meta events with the Exalted in HoT and suddenly we had to race eachother to determine who could ride the golden Exalted armor or something. that was plenty PvP for me. The only reason I did not quit for the night right then and there is because it only lasted for just under 10 minutes.

I did not mean to imply that EotM plays the same as Fractals, just that you start it in the same way (enter the portal in LA, join a game etc).

EotM sounds the way to go. I’ll just power through it tonight, see how that goes. Thanks all.

Ahh, so Edge of the Mists is similar to Fractals, but for WvW. Then just tag along with a group of people and leech. I can do that. Thanks.

EDIT: @Bubi, kitten, now that is a step by step guide. Just one question: Can I join the dark side if I bring milk (for the cookies)? ;P

I know most of those words. Sadly for me they hold no meaning in this configuration.

Please keep in mind I have no WvW experience (other than some aimless wandering around having no f-ing clue what to do or being dragged along by friends, not having the slightest idea what is going on).

Ok, let’s start off with the problem: I hate PvP (and by extension WvW) with a passion.

I am trying to make a legendary weapon, but this requires me to get a Gift of Battle. Apparently I need to be World Rank 14 to even talk to the NPC that sells it for Badges of Honor (I don’t remember when, but apparently I got enough of those).

So, being forced into PvP, what is the quickest way to get this over with? I am perfectly okay with throwing a bunch of gold and/or gems at it.
