[QUOTE=kirederf7;27636228]Things just got serious! I'm going GWAMM! Fuck yeah![/QUOTE] Enjoy getting there. I'm sitting at 29/30 at the moment. Unless you have a fair number of account wide titles it will take a lot of effort because you have to clear absolutely everything. Getting a GWAMM requires a lot of investment into money sinks as well as the time investment of vanquishing and getting guardian. Ultimately you need to pace yourself. Don't just try and do it in 3 weeks. You will go nuts.

[QUOTE=Cyan_Husky;27722579]It's hard to even call it an MMO, to be honest. It's like a Co-operative online RPG or something.[/QUOTE] Depends what you count as an MMO. It doesn't have to be a WoW-clone to be an MMO. If it plays entirely online, and entirely multiplayer, it's an MMO.
[QUOTE=Dude Meister;27773209]Depends what you count as an MMO. It doesn't have to be a WoW-clone to be an MMO.

And I really can't wait for the FB update, it's a shame they didn't make their intended date of releasing it before CNY, but now they want to do the dervish update in front of FB as well? That just annoys me.

[QUOTE=GetBent;27777146]That first M stands for Massive. You can't have the same numbers of people in one place, like WoW, in Guild Wars.[/QUOTE] The maximum number of players in 1 instance in guildwars is 150. There are room/dedicated server-based FPS' that support more players than that. That makes an even bigger argument against GW as an MMO.
I had guild wars. Stopped playing it for awhile. Came back on. And saw enter character name stupid security. WHAT THE FUCK? Whats wrong with just email and password? Now i cant log in but i have 2 of each cd key for 2 accounts. That account is screwed.

A-net had to add the Character name in order to counter-act a fatal security flaw in the NCsoft account database, which took months to fix, and it's still pretty vulnerable. It was either this, or letting the entire gw population lose their accounts.

Last year I got 3 tigers from lunar fortunes :smug: This year I'm gonna farm more though, should be fun.
Opened 230 fortunes, only 1 bunny, lol. I've still got about 150 fortunes from quests I can do later, and then I can farm/dragon arena. Hoping to get at least one more bunny! I wanna keep one... [editline]5th February 2011[/editline] How is Canthan New Year going for the rest of you?

I'm also hoping for another one, because it's tail wagging is way too cute.
Shit I haven't played in a good couple months. :\ Anything new and exciting, other than missing Halloween, Christmas, and now the new year thing?
Dervish update is expected really soon, along with FB (Feature build; Embark beach/7 heroes/hero AI improvement, etc) a little afterwards. And if you haven't been around for the Hearts of the North content, you may want to do that, as it's sort of enjoyable plus you get a new hero at the end.

I've not played in a while, but I did hear about this. Guess I know what I'll be playing tonight. :buddy:
[QUOTE=Smashman;27914615]Oh? I've not played in a while, but I did hear about this. Guess I know what I'll be playing tonight. :buddy:[/QUOTE] It's not out yet, but I'd atleast expect the preview/derv update this month, FB at the end of march at the latest.
I meant the Hearts of the North. But yes, what's the Dervish Update going to contain?
A total rework of the dervish profession.
It's the sole reason mine hasn't been deleted.
Why exactly are they reworking the dervish?
Because dervish' suck.
[QUOTE=Miskav;27933725]Because dervish' suck.[/QUOTE] Are they going to change the whole "based on buffs and debuffs" thing? And if they dare change the weapon of the dervish... :argh: Also, how much did you guys pay for guild wars? I got the complete collection for 5€ from a sale at a local shop :v:
210€ first time. Pre-ordered all of them, was in the prophecies beta as well. 12,50€ second time. And they wont change the weapon, they might link scythes' efficiency to mysticism, or make it better for dervishes. For the rest I have no idea, I don't have any details.
Any of you know how, and could do a few speedbook runs for me?
Pretty simple. You rush yourself through the 3 easiest/fastest quest, usually curse of the nornbear, against the charr and ATFH, this will give you 3000 points in whatever rank you choose. Should take less then 20 minutes per try. (Oh, and you have a HM hero handbook and do it all in HM)
