Guild Wars 2

For years, I honed my skills with the blade. Many enemies slain; blood, constantly dripping from my sword. My skills were unmatched. My comrades admired and stood by my side.

As a warrior, my strength and control of the sword were unmatched. However, my comrades knew not what secret that has burdened me my whole life. For of all the skills I could master, one always escaped my grasp. From time to time, I’d practice, feel determination . . only to be disappointed. But today, with my blade sharpened, sharp enough to cut through the heavy armor forged by the rare Orichalcum Ore, sharp enough to fell any beast that dare cross my path, I felt ready. Today . . . I hunt.

I tread across the meadows, scouting for any prey that might serve as my meal for the day. Any prey to hone the skill that never could be mastered. After hours of searching, I found myself on a small hill, staring into the eyes of a Flame Legion BladeDancer, an enemy. I felt the blood rushing across my body. I firmly gripped my sword, and without a moment’s notice, I leaped into the air towards my foe! As my comrades put it, a perfect initiator would be a savage leap into the enemy.
I felt the wind brush across me as I closed the distance, and then I thrust my sword forward, piercing all that it touched.

I landed, then looked at my enemy. Not even phased. Still perfectly fine. It is to be expected one might suppose . . when you thrust your sword forward midair, before even being in range of the enemy, let alone on the same level to even strike him.

I was wondering if I am experiencing a bug or whatnot.

The Map should be showing icons shown in the following link, http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Map
I’m a new player and it’s a pain trying to locate anything when nothing shows up on my map.

I only have access to the map completion icons and the resource icons when nearby. Nothing else shows up. No Vendors, no portals, nothing.

I can’t find any settings to change what is shown on the map either. (No Map related options appear under the Options menu)

I’m really hoping I’m just missing something simple here. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Is there only one default voice for every race-gender? Thanks.

I’d like to join. Tried messaging everyone on the list, but says all are offline. Send me an invite when ya can. Thanks

Hey guys. I just joined the GW2 crew and so far I’m enjoying the game quite a lot.
I am looking for a guild that does just about everything; Dungeons, WvW, etc.

I want to jump in and experience all GW2 has to offer so what better way than to join a guild with like minded people!?!

I currently am playing a Sylvari Elementalist (Lvl 16 atm but that will change soon).

Anyways, that’s all! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks for taking an interest.

Hey guys. I just recently started playing and am enjoying myself quite a bit!
I have myself a sweet lvl 16 elementalist, and I’m having fun seeing the different skill sets each weapon has to offer.

With that in mind, what weapon/skill set do you find most fun?
So far I’m digging the Dual dagger combo. Feels more captivating(faster also)

P.S. Is there any way to move faster? I’ve seen some people moving at lightning speed so I know there’s a way!!!

Thank you so much for the info guys! May RNGesus bless you all~

Thanks for the replies! Now to decide which server to play. Not like there is a difference since they’re all “Very High”. Can you play cross server? Is it like the typical MMO where you make a char on one server and its stuck there for eternity (unless you pay a small arm and leg)?

Hey, just joined the crew. I was wondering which classes are most in demand for parties (pvp and/or pve wise). I’ve been thinking of playing an Elementalist, Mesmer, or Thief, but mainly just want a char that can easily roll with a party and have fun be it casual or hardcore stuff. Thanks.

Heyo, I just bought the game and got it installed. Although, now that I have done that, I am trying to figure out what class to play

Was considering an Engineer. Although, with that said, will I find myself lacking parties and whatnot late-game? I’ve played games where certain classes are just frowned upon for either PVE or PVP and they’ll just kick you out because your contributions are inferior towards other classes.

Anyways, thanks!!! Napping time!
