Guild Wars 2

Locuz.2651:

- Everything you need can accesed via that pvpbuild button.
- You can use the basic weapons you can in your introduction quest. After you get rewards via the rewardtrack after pretty much every game you play (this includes all tuypes of weapons armour etc).
- No these weapons arent weaker…you can purchase weapons for a few copper and have acces to something that hits just as hard as a legendary (in pvp).
- You dont have to PvE. You can get everything you want from PvP, skillpoints, money everything. The new traits can be bought from one of the class vendors in the pvplocker area for some skillpoints and money.
- Mind that you have acces to all standard traits…..and the new ones arent superior to the old ones. They are an alternative.

I appreciate you taking the time to type that out for me, thanks!
I only posted this after looking it up myself and hitting dead ends, and reading the New to PvP? Start here! thread, and it still didn’t rightly explain what I was wondering.

The last I played this game was around May last year, where I played some PvP right out of the gate, much like I spent most of my GW1 career doing.
Upon going into PvP now, everything is changed with scarce a tutorial, other than to look at the PvP Builder at the top of my UI now.
I now have to purchase different weapons I want to use, what if I don’t have any money? Also, are they weaker than everyone else’s weapon? The same goes for armour.
Why do I have to PvE to unlock traits now? I’m PvPing at this low of a level because I don’t want to PvE. Needing to PvE to get the most out of PvP, when there was none of that in GW1 sort of kills it for me.
