Guild Wars 2

I see. Thanks for the clear explanation. Gosh…it really is so expensive ><’’

Hi all, I bought gw2 for a while but hasn’t really got into it (stopped playing my ele when she was like on 3x lv….). Until now, HoT has released and there is so many talking and I am starting to get interested into playing and plan to purchase the HoT expansion once my ele got to 80.
And I just realized I just don’t have enough storage to do crafting. I searched on the internet that I can make a personal guild bank to get 50 slots with only 6 gold. So I created a guid right away and when I get to the guild initiative notary he said I need like 50g and ~1000 favor for the 50 slot stash….?! I believed I have missed out something..So is it that expensive now to create a personal guild bank? ><

OK. Thank you everyone of you for the patient explanations.
I actually got in! Both me and my friend!

Both of us got in during non-peak hours. We got in the same situation: the server was FULL and we kept clicking the grey colored button, after some try without luck we both logged out and logged in immediately. And once we logged in the server status was shown as ‘very high’. (we got in on different days) It is most likely just coincidence but anyway this is how we got in

Thanks so much!! That is very helpful!
I will let you know once I got in (hopefully I wont quit trying..haha)
expect a week or 2 or even longer for the reply ;p

Hi, I have a question on getting into a full server.
Do I have to get out of the game and in again so to refresh the server status? Or will it just be automatically updated every second or so, so I can wait on the ‘initial world selection’ screen until i saw there is vacancy?
Are there any other tips on trying to get into a full server??
Argh, hope someone can help! thanks!

P.S. I am aware of the meta-server. I want to get into a high tier server for wvw.
