A month or two ago I created a trial Guild Wars account for the hell of it. After the time ran out on it I did not bother with it until my Guild Leader went out and bought me the Guild Wars Trilogy for the trial account. Now I am playing through the game again because my main account has no more character slots. It gives me something to do.
I tend not to like PvP side of games. I am a person who enjoys a story line/take my time PvE type of guy. Though for the past few days a friend got me hooked on Jade Quary in Guild Wars. I have been playing my Necromancer with a Suicide Bomber. Cast my skills, shadow step in and 2 more skills and die and if done well I have now taken a quary or only 1-2 are left alive. It is very funny to watch warriors run up to me like they are going to stop me and I step past them right onto the shrine and now they are faced with my dead corpse and a new quary.
I even bought new armor just for the occasion of playing. Though since I was new to PvP I was not aware of the arbitrary rules of the Dishonor system. One match I spawn in with my guild lord and only 3 people are active. My Guild Leader, some random dude and myself. The rest of the 8 man team are all not moving. They did not move the entire match. So they are leaching of course. I report them for leaching but strange thing is unless a third of your team reports them then you get dishonor instead. What bullshit rule is that? It would be better to say that unless a third of your team reports then nothing happens. Maybe Guild Wars can check to see if the people who are being reported have moved or even cast a single skill. These people did not move one inch the entire 10 mins so maybe they should of auto got dishonor.
I doubt they will fix that but hey at least I am enjoying myself blowing things up. boom boom
I have been looking over the new update for Guild Wars. Some of the things I see are indeed good but it was not what I was expecting. To me it seems Arena Net wanted to bog us down with daily quests until GW2 comes out.
That is fine. It does indeed give us something to do. The only problem I have are the outrageous prices they have put on their storage panes and character customization changes. The whole phrase “Don’t like it then don’t buy it” is bullshit. Indeed it is true but wouldn’t it be better to offer these things at a fair price. Say $1 for character customization and maybe $5 for a storage pane. It would be cheaper to buy a new character slot for $10. With this you can get about 45 new slots “if you get the belt pouch and upgraded bags” versus the what 20 new slots for a storage pane.
It does cost Anet to to maintain servers but still.
I spent most of my day helping a friend get through factions. Was kind of stop and go there for a bit because of the lagspikes and her being called away so much. We finely made it to Cavalon though. 
The weekend was ok. It was St. Patrick’s day this week so in Guild Wars was dropping Four-Leaf-Clovers and Shamrock Ales. I already have my drunkard title so I will most likely sell the 100+ I got or give them to a friend. I also got 100+ of the shamrocks as well. I will most likely keep these for when I explore.
