Guild Wars 2

Around level 20 the Necromancer armor set (at least the pieces you get from karma vendors in Snowden Drifts, but I’ve seen drops with same models as well) looks really amazing on my Charr – it’s the one with spikes on the shouldpads and bones hanging everywhere.
I’ve been transmuting that set onto gear upgrades for the past 40 levels now, and unfortunately with no change in sight until level 80.

At 80 the Whispers set looks good too, but I don’t know if you have to be inducted into that particular order to get it.

As for end-game, I’m personally in love with the exotic token set from Citadel of Flame (gives your Charr a fiery tail and all), but it’s rather expensive, and the 120-token rune that comes with the set pieces is completely useless for Necromancers, so having to pay for that just to replace it seems rather disappointing.

Just to make sure that Europe gets its fair representation on this issue as well.

I play on Seafarer’s Rest EU, and am frequently kicked to the character screen with an error code 7. Sometimes I am unable to stay on for more than 5 seconds. I will then have no problems logging back in, but then again, a maximum of 10 seconds will pass and I am back out staring at the character selection screen.

I just want to add my voice to the choir.
I am experiencing this exact same issue as well, on a 20 Mb/s cable connection. It has been getting me very frustrated as of late, since the game is virtually unplayable.

And I will have to dispel this hope of it being a geographical issue expressed above. I connect from Denmark, Europe, and interestingly, none of my friends living in the vicinity have the problem.

In terms of my personal experience, I only really seem to have problems during afternoons and evenings, where lots of other people are playing. Funny thing is, most of these “other people” (when asking around in map or guild chat) cannot relate to my issue. It puzzles me why an issue that on the surface seems server-load related is had on such an individual basis.
