Guild Wars 2 - The Thread

Arcanum · 04-10-2012, 03:22 AM

Creative title, eh? Well who cares about the title of the thread since we're talking about Guild Wars, i.e. holy fuck I can barely contain my fangasm over this game.

Anyway, the game is now available for pre-purchase, which you can do so here or at certain retailers. Pre-purchasing gives you some items once the game comes out, access to the game 3 days before it's officially out, and most importantly access to all of the beta events.

And really the true purpose of this thread is to find out who among all of you are as excited for this game as I am, and if you will be in the beta, and which server we shall play on (but even then, home servers are more for World versus World and Guilds, since players can visit other servers at a whim).

If, for some reason, you aren't hyped about this game then it's probably because you live under a rock. Have no fear, for the internet holds all you could ever want to know about this game. But sifting through a wiki can be boring, so there's more!

To start us off, the Yogscast (and I don't normally watch these guys, I just stumbled onto their coverage) has 32 videos about the game including descriptions and demonstrations of the weapons skills of each profession.

Here's the elementalist one, just to get you started

But what's that? You want to read the skill descriptions at your leisure, as well as examine the Trait system? Well then help yourself to this character builder.

This is the elementalist build I threw together, and feel free to share your own builds.

Anyway, who's going to prepurchase and get into the beta events? What profession are you excited to play? Have you seen some of the World vs. World videos out there? Discuss! Fangasm! Be pessimistic (because I'm sure there are a few of you :P)!
