I believe there is only two kill quests in the whole game and those are funny quests anyway. Most are very objective based.

Ok, done searing. I've got necro as my secondary now, and i'm focusing on Blood Magic, Curses, Animal Mastery and Marksmanship.

I freaking love this game... I was hooked at "no Monthly fees"... then when I actually got into it... I can't stop...
(I should get the expansions -.-)
Can't wait for Guild Wars 2 though...
Hopefully no Monthly fees

I'm pretty sure they're sticking with no fees in GW2. I gotta play this game again. It's been a long time, since I've just been so hooked on TF2. SOON I will be back. SOON.

I wanted to play Nightfall the other day so I got my DVD from the case... and it snapped right into two! So, does anyone know if Nightfall works with an ISO or a no-dvd crack, I do have the original authentication key installed and everything? (i want to know before i commit BANDWIDTH to download anything)
<Drule> I can play the didgeridoo actually
<Drule> some guy on the street taught me
<Drule> come to think of it
<Drule> it was pretty gross how I played on his didgeridoo

so wrong...

You don't need the CD at all. It literally does nothing except preload some stuff. You can just load up Guild Wars and go to Nightfall areas anyways.

By GW, I mean Guild Wars.

I've played Guild Wars a long time ago (Prophecies) when it first came out (or was it beta?), but not too much. Now I'd like to get into it again.

But I'm so confused about the expansions/campaigns and what I need to buy/what I should buy.

When starting at level 1, do I have to start with prophecies or can I play whatever campaign I want? (Out of the three, prophecies, factions, and nightfall.) And should I buy all three campaigns?

Is the expansion necessary?

Thanks in advance.

There is a an official Guild Wars thread in the netplay forum, I'll try to find it but I can answer some of your questions.

When starting at level 1, you can start at any campaign you have activated on your GW account(have bought). If you have nothing else to spend the money on, or really like Guild Wars, go ahead and buy all three (although in my opinion, factions is pretty bad. Like, I really didn't enjoy assassin/ritualist or the story/areas much).

No the expansions are not necessary unless you want to, you know, play them.  They don't really add anything but story and classes (if you buy an expansion I think it comes with all the base classes like warrior, mesmer, ranger I think).

Okay. Well I guess I'll start in one of the new campaigns because I haven't played them before. So you recommend Nightfall then?

I can just get nightfall and start with that right, without the original game?

(I played originally on my brother's account btw)

yeah you can buy any one and start playing. obviously nightfall and factions have a few added classes, and different areas/story, but they are basically separate games and you can buy any combination of them and play.
yes coulombs are "germaine", did you learn that word at talk like a dick school?

Get Nightfall, then Factions, then EotN.

You can play them in any order.

Connect them to your current account.

You don't need the disks in the games.

You can take your Prophecies character through the other games.

So I recently bought the Guild Wars Game of the Year edition at Walmart and I'm starting to get into it.  Do you guys still play this regularly?

i've actually stopped playing it just recently except to just talk to people (i've pretty much done everything that i want to do before GW2). i might start playing next month when they revamp the titles, but I've mostly just been playing TF2 (and very soon L4D) lately. The only exception is now, because of the Costume Brawl which is the best thing they've ever made. i could prolly help you out when you hit level 20 tho.

yeah this for me. i'm on for a little bit each week right now, since i have class and exams. and TF2 usually makes up my gaming now since i can just jump in for a round or two. but in a few weeks it'll be vidcons all day so wooooo.
