"One Good Drink Deserves Another" - Bug

I can tell you that my gf, ever since hating her ELE in GW2, I made her to make another character. She chose Norn. She love playing Warrior Norn, and now her progress is halted. She’s the type that plays due to the story, and now she’s just wandering around the map with me without any story to continue and she begun to be bored.

I’m pretty generous and don’t mind spending real life money for gems, but if she’s bored and don’t want to play anymore, you’ll lose me too. Sad seeing this.

What a crappy way to prioritize since this is HALTING PROGRESSION TYPE of bug!

sigh..

Couple of tips that I used to give to someone new at the game (I miss those moments).

1. Learn to prioritize (Monk first, then elementalist because unlike in GW2, elementalist, especially boss, deal crapload of dmg if left alone)

2. Don’t stand in AoE (If you see enemy elementalist casting firestorm or meteor shower, don’t stand still embracing it.)

3. Don’t Leeroy. Take group 1 by 1. GW1 is not like GW2 where almost every enemy is individually independent. GW1 enemies usually comes in group, and the latter and more elite the area, the more well balance (READ: Pain in the kitten to kill) they are, which makes my 1st tips more and more important.

What profession you starting can mean a huge deal. If you are starting as Mesmer/Monk in the beginning, you might ended up hating the game. Mesmer especially requires you to know game mechanic and also a lot of skills from the other professions to excel in playing one. Monk will require you to know enemy types, what kind of skills they are using and whats the danger of those skills, in order to excel.

Try Elementalist/warrior/ranger for beginner. You’ll probably enjoy it more just for the first time. Knowledge of the other profession’s skills and most enemy mechanics and behaviors aren’t that needed to succeed at first. Choose fire and/or earth if you choose Ele for dmg. Warrior, choose sword/axe first before hammer.

4. Be patient. GW1 is one of the most rewarding game that I’ve played (aside from Demon/dark souls series). You failed, don’t fret, try it one more or get a new skill or try different henchmen composition can mean victory.

Cheers!

I came back after 1 and a half years because when I teased my gf about playing game (the first GW), she surprised me with the fact that she’s liking it. I then helped her to get 40 pts for her HoM, all under 3 weeks. She’s excited for GW2 because I told her its prettier and she can get all of her stuffs she’s been working on GW1 in GW2 as well.

Well, to cut it short.. HoM that has been awaited, didn’t work. It’s been on error/disabled state for weeks. Her favorite profession Ele wasn’t very inspiring. She can’t wreck foes with Meteor shower or other skills that pops out large numbers on her screen anymore. She now finds the combat tedious and the only interesting part for her everytime she plays now is.. EOTM..

That’s it. Now she’s trying warrior and she likes warrior better than her Ele (makes her sad) but she kept telling me that she really miss her Ele and Monk in GW1. I have been telling her this past 3 days to keep giving it a chance though..

I honestly don’t remember the leveling in GW2 is this boring.. sure I only got 1 lvl 80 loooong time ago, but for some reason, I feel that the current leveling has been changed. It’s very very boring and unrewarding. Or maybe just me..

Bottom line is, me and my gf can agree that one thing that we appreciate in GW2 more is the amount of people playing. Compared to GW1. But since we are so used to seeing mission outpost with just 1-3 souls, we are just so glad seeing a lot of players.

GW2 is a missed opportunity I think.. Keeping the old skill system that makes “GUILD WARS – GUILD WARS” is mandatory. Changing weapons? not so much.. I hate skills number 4&5 for example.. well, tough! because I like skill number 1-3..

O well, my hope is that we will still continue to play until at least she have 1 character lvl 80. But after that? who knows.

True story btw, I bought her a new laptop just so that she can play GW2. Her 5 years old laptop just cant handle it. She’s a nice person, I hope she plays GW2 because she likes it, not because she will feel bad not using the laptop for its intended purpose..

o well..

Dear all,

I just got back from 1 1/2 years absence. Playing with my gf, and this is her first MMO. She is really overwhelmed with things and find playing elementalist very difficult. I told her to make a warrior and she likes it so far.

Anyway, when we were venturing last night, she spotted a mini in the form of cute dolyak (initially she thought it was a pig) carrying presents on the top. She went mad chasing that person just to see the minipet.. until the person warped.

I want to get that mini for her but I can’t find it on the trading post nor the gem store. Anyone can tell me/sell me how to get one/one?

I am willing to purchase and I hope there’s a way. It can make her stay in GW2 more enjoyable.

Thanks for reading!
