I love this game. I was able to play it at a friends house for a few hours. However, I am not able to play it on my computer do to well...my computer sucks. However I have/had a Lv 3 Ranger/***
*** = I am not sure what the other half was. Its been like 3 months since I played.
I do plan on getting a better computer soon and then getting the game myself and playing it.
This is a really great game. People shoot it down just because of it's level 20 cap. It truely is alot of fun. Takes skill to play. Another thing 2 Expansions every year . Makes it worth getting and pvp is insanely good.

Yeah, I really enjoy Guild Wars. It's actually a pretty innovatuve game system because levels aren't half as important as the skills you have and how you use them. The class system is well-implemented, too. I'm not a fan of MMORPGs at all because they tend to be level-grinding, item-farming pwn-fests, but Guild Wars didn't end up that way for me.
Pity our PC has a Celeron or I could actually play it >_<;;
I was thinking about World of Warcraft for a while. I've played Guild Wars, and I really like it. From what I'v heard about all the balance issues in WoW, I think I'd prefer Guild Wars.
I was playing a Mesmer/Monk and I enjoyed that combination a lot. I didn't see anything like it in Word of Warcraft.

All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to be the light that you see. All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to be the peace that you feel. All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to fill your heart on my own.
But the rainbow is an image of hope for many reasons, as it is a brilliant sight coming out of oftimes dismal weather.
For anyone who plays Guild Wars here - what classes and class combinations do you all play?

I play Guildwars. In process of building my own Guild. Have a Necromancer/Ranger (all she needs is her Spider and she is complete), Elementalist/Ranger (flavorwise is the firsts sister), an Assasisn I started but havn't done much with and a Pre searing only Warrior who is a pet project. I am doing presear without any quests or skills (untill his level is maxed). This is very hard. He will be in charge of recruiting for the guild. Who wouldn't join a guild headed by a level 17 presear Warrior dressed in solid Black?
Mam, you should play more and join my Guild. We are "Groin to Eye Champions"
I play a Necro/Mesmer. Necros are sort a hard to do. All the attributes are so good that you want to make them all as high as possible. I've learned from wiser players that you should put most of your points into 2 primarys and 1 secondary. I love making armies of bony minions to do my biding. I'm having a hard time in The Black Curtain. I always get there untouched by Death but then the gang of Necrid Horseman and Hellhounds gang up on me. *sniffle* I'm actually as far as Bloodstone Fen but want to beat The Villiany of Gareth before I complete any more missions. Anyone got any spare Monsterous Eyes, Claws, or Fangs? I need them to make my armor pretty.
@Bitsy: Yeah? I like Mesmers the best of the six core classes, but Necromancer and Monk were my runners-up. I want to try either Mesmer/Necromancer or Necromancer/Mesmer.
I got past the Searing with my character (the Mesmer/Monk) but I didn't go too far since I was having trouble finishing some of the quests. I really wanted to pick up more skills but they were hard to find. When I got Chaos Storm, Shatter Hex, Energy Burn, and a few others, though, I started to get more powerful. Chaos Storm was great on a lot of those spell-casting enemies that tend to stand in on area.
I assume Death Magic was your favorite line of skills?

@Mamelon: Death Magic, Curses, and Domination Magic. When enemies clump together I can cast Suffering(-2 health degeneration over x seconds), Shadow of Fear(foe and all nearby foes move 50% slower for x seconds), and Chaos Storm on them and let my minions hack away at them. Soul Reaping is so awesome. Standing next to a corpse has never been so much fun.
You should do an /image check to download everything... though you'll have to wait about... oh say 4-8 hours for everything to download. You'd have to edit the shortcut with a right click and just add -image or /image after the ".
I am presently playing with a Dervish in Nightfall, and I have all of the Avatars... which were all easy until Balthazar (at that point, the guildies came in and saved the day.) Fortunately, she herself kicks all sorts of butt in PvP unless some pain in the butt knockdown A/E comes by and everyone groups on her.
I'm hoping to get Nightfall soon. Though I really don't need it. I still haven't finished Prophesies with my original character and don't get me started on Factions. Then there's my Factions Character. I can't get her off of Shing Jea Island. I always get to the end of Zen Daijun and end up getting ganged by Afflicted. Shadow's Refuge is pretty good at keeping me alive through the Soul Explosions but when 10 Afflicted die at the same time I just have to hope Master Togo will Rez me or something. I miss my Nightfall character, Sheba Al Hakim. She's a Dervish/Necromancer and just pretty darned cool. Its funny that the male Dervish have to wear dresses too. But the only option that would fit the theme are those puffy, harem pants that MC Hammer used to wear. *imagines male Dervishes dancing like MC Hammer*
I got 7 PVE character and 1 PVP. Mainly hanging around the Random Arenas and Team Arenas. Everyone is playing the FOTM Searing Flames ele in PVP. So it gets kinda boring...
For a non-monthly game Guild Wars is pretty cool, but im playing Wow atm so i dont have the time for GW. The graphics are nice, but lacks some pve stuff
I have the original disc. Do I still have to download anything other than the updates? =|
I don't think you do... as a matter of fact, each new chapter you buy, the only thing you have to do is insert the code that comes with your chapter. Then Guild Wars just updates itself and nothing more.
And for combating Searing Flames, I'll just use the Melandru avatar.
Anyone playing a Paragon? What are they like in practice?

My highest is currently a 16 W/R, followed by a 13 Mo/Me, then a 9 N (still in Pre) and finally an 8 E/Mo. I don't focus enough :sweat:.

In any case, Guild Wars holds my admiration for the most impressive landscapes of any game, especially in the outdoors.
