Guild Wars 2

Name: Eduku
Main Character: My current is Qi Tian (elementalist), although my highest level is Identity Mirage (mesmer)
Current Server: Desolation
Interested Activities: Mostly PVE, although I’m willing to do some PVP, general socialising
Active: Whenever, I can be on at any time
Additional Comments: Haven’t yet found anyone to play with so I’m hoping this will be the chance

I should also point out that I’m not willing to change servers.

Shantesu – 8/10. I like it, sounds simple, yet elegant and feminine, and I like the link to a previous game. Almost gives it a sense of history.

My own, a Canthan (a nation already based on oriental culture) elementalist named Qi Tian. Tian can mean ‘heavenly’ or ‘otherworldly’, while Qi (or Chi) is the ‘energy’ or ‘life force’ of a person in Taoism. Literally, ‘Heavenly life force’. I thought it was appropriate seeing as magic is believed to be bestowed upon people by the gods.

I recently transferred to Desolation and I’m looking for a mature, casual guild with lots of active members (around 20+ representing at any time at least). I’m mainly into PVE but would be willing to join in some PVP shenanigans too.

Thanks

Pretty much what the topic title says, have you come across builds that made you pick up a class again after dismissing it as ‘boring’? I like looking at builds which, while not min/maxing the class, are still interesting and fun to play.

9/10 Fernand Dieudonne – Original and noble sounding name and fits with a guardian, also sounds quite medieval/exotic almost.
7/10 Ken Riles – Somewhat simple, though I suppose for a thief that makes sense.
7/10 Vironious Scepsi – Bit complicated, doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.
8/10 Knight Rafael Baldomar – Similar to Fernand; original, noble and memorable, not sure about the ‘Knight’ part though. Maybe ‘Sir’ instead?

Now for my own names:
Hoko Shen, Guardian – Being Chinese myself, I wanted to create an oriental character, which fits with the lore as well (Canthans). I haven’t seen many Chinese characters around either. ‘Shen’ is a somewhat uncommon Chinese surname, and can mean ‘spiritual’, which I thought fit with the whole theme of the guardian. ‘Hoko’ is an anagram of my own surname (Khoo).

Identity Mirage, Mesmer – Being a mesmer, the idea was that he was so illusive that no one knows his actual name, to the extent that even he isn’t sure he remembers it anymore, so he simply goes by that nickname.
