Guild Wars 2

I just came back to the game, excited about trying new stuff, i have a lot of 80s but missing a few, here i go make a new character, get to 30 and discover how things are now… I almost stopped playing when i saw what i needed to do to get my traits, i switched to another alt that was made under the old system and decided to just play that pretty much but it definitely made me not want to play this game much.

I mean, what the heck where they thinking?!?! What i loved about this game is that you made your own fun, i just wanted to wvw and did just that without having to run a single dungeon (find them very very boring) or grind stuff for legendaries, now if i want to play a char in wvw i need to go out and do a ton of stuff i HATE doing to get traits? or grind skill points and spend gold?!?!?

It is a terrible system and i truly don’t understand who could come up with such a bad thing and how it got approved…

I really hope he comes back to his post and learn that kitten is the forum profanity filter… LOL

Gotta love ppl like ^^^^ when someone does well with a spec/class they always come in and say “those must be some real bad players.”

Everything has a counter, and im sure you also do very well in wvw, there’s no need to diminish other ppl things imo.

Gj op, from a returning player that used that build since start of the game it was good to refresh how it is supposed to be played.

The amount of people here that think to know that everything is easy in the computer world is hilarious….

Yes rollback sucks, but its not like they went, “hey, dev A, im going to call our IT department and tell them to roll back everyone for 1 hour”, “Sure dev B, lets do it and have some fun!”

Guys… stuff happens, deal with it, if they had to rollback its to fix something that simply happened…. sigh at ppl…..

Ok, first when you start a char and you finish doing your starting zone, go do other starting zones, charr ones have a lot of close events and event chains. At level 20 you can do chains in kessex hills till level 30 very very fast, if you get bored there are 2 or 3 other 20-30 zones… My point is, don’t play this like other mmos where you went from 1 quest hub to the other, change zones, look in the map zones in your level range or even below that you have not done and do them.

Level scaling is there for a reason, use it. I have never stopped in this game and said “im leveling slow, i don’t see enough events”. Al tho there are some zones with less events than others its really not that bad.

I am taking my 3rd char to level 80, another thing that helps is always gather, exp in the game is % based, gathering a node is about 0.6% exp, its the same exp you get from killing 6 or so mobs, unless the mobs have not been killed recently and you get explorer bonus, which is another good thing to exploit for getting exp, go to places not traveled a lot and kill for huge explorer bonus.
