How will you play "Factions?"

i dont ...

Well. I know for sure i'm deleting my W/mo on the release date. If we get alot more slots, i'll make a ritualist and a mesmer. If we get enough slots, i'll make an assasain along with the ritulist.

Will we be able to bring our guild wars core characters into the factions area and do the missions there ect ect?( on the actual release, not the beta)

Ash.

me neither...

whats the problem? k so then we play with 3 assassins, 3 ritualists who cares?? a ritualist can heal or do massive dmg, an assassin also has different play styles dont see the problems here

I'm playing Factions with a keyboard and mouse.



All joking aside, I'll probally go Assassin then it depends on how many char. slots will be available. As for the beta, definately Assassin...

ye. they mentioned that you wont be able to use ch.1 characs. but I do hope they let use start w/ any of the classes, bcuz the point of the pvp factions event was to let us test the rit/assass classes.

also (as mentioned by a previous poster), I too am going to be very interested in the pets/petsystems in factions and will be starting off builds for that, (since I wasnt overly using/impressed w/ ch.1's)

/g'day.

I'll start a A/Rt for Factions. Rt primary is a bit too ugly for my taste...so I'll go Assassin.

Also (Completly off-topic), Assassin needs to have bigger breasts!

No, This isn't about the beta weekend.

Initially, I'll be creating an assassin and a ritualist on my second account. I'll take them to the prophecies campaign and power level them with my warrior on my main account. When both are level 20, then I'll go to Factions and do the missions. I think I'll find it easier to explore the new professions and skillsets if I'm not struggling to get by. Also, I'll be learning the new runs with my tank so I can make mad gold. Soooooooooooooooooo many people will want runs.

I just remembered how much fun I had as a R/Rt in the preview event, so instead of making a Rit primary, I'll probably go along that route, since I deleted my Ranger a few months ago.

*sigh*

Characters from Tyria will not go to the same place as new Canthan characters start, as has been said many times. They will have their own story and missions/quests that meet up with the story in a different way. They're not gonna just drop you in low-level areas with new characters.

WTF? A brand new chapter with new story and all kinds of new stuff and you your first time through you want to rush through it?

This kind of mindset is exactly what's wrong with so much of the GW playerbase.

I just might, I dunno, play the game the way it was meant to be played, not skip through it so I can start farming, like most of the responses thus far say.

Why even buy it if you're just going to run and power-level through it?

Disgusting.

Lol couldnt you include all those 3 posts in one

Im not sure yet, i want to play through it on mesmer or necro, but monks will be needed most i guess.

Might try and get all of them through within a reasonable timezone.

I'm gonna fight (read: FIGHT) through the game as my main ranger then i'l make a Ritualist/Monk and get him through the new storyline... praying to balthazar i finish the cantha storyline before runners take over the expansion like they did in the current guild wars

Personally, I don't understand why people would be using their level 20 characters for the newer version of the game, at least not until they've done it with a new character first. I think that it would completely take the challenge out of most of the beginning of the game, and I'd like to see what happens with the story, especially depending on in-game factions, with a newer character. (I'll probably be going Ritualist.)

Edit: Grimm, where'd you hear this information? I'd still play through with a pure Factions-campaign character first, but if your info is true, I'd like to see how my Prophecies monk would fit into the Factions storyline.

I'll always be looking for the third option.

Going to take my 1st and favorite character since the game launced in to new adventures in Cantha from the C1 perspective of adventure in to new lands. If I create and assassin or ritualist then I will start "new" from within C2.

I put a some (not too much to be considered rpg) background / personality for each of my characters and treat them like I would rpg chracters (pen and paper).

I will take my time slowly and join "explore" no objective parties for as long as they exist like when gw 1st came out if anyone still remembers them and take my time to smell the jade flowers.

Hopefully I'll have enough character slots combined between Prophecies and Factions to create one of each primary profession and continue playing Guild Wars the moderate paced see/do as much as possible way that I've been playing Prophecies all along this time able to explore old areas with new characters and new areas with both old and new characters.

I agree, even tho, im not making a assassin, the way it walks(or runs....i cant tell, when i move it looks like running, and i dont like it.....^^). BUt im surely making an ritualist, because its skillz are mad ownage. and the female one looks kinky.

I might continue the story of Sagius Truthbarron and Pigtoria as a Rt/R :0

-.- Aren't the outfits/underpants enough?
