Guild Wars, questions...

Heh useless,

I hear the 4K quest in Lions Arch is a bit easier if you leave from the Temple of Ages as you can take 2 more henchies and they're better skilled.
 
thats what everybody says... though lag and underestimation from our party didnt get me too far on any of the quests from Lions Arch. :(

Great I am just about to do that quest :)
 
@useless and gkm, thx it was fun playing with you guys. Real happy to be part of the guild!

@Vercogen, During the early stages of the game I recommend going Blood/Curses and a few attribute points in Soul Reaping for Energy Management. As more skills become available to you I recommend going "Minion Master". This is a build with most points in Death Magic and Soul Reaping, and since your a secondary Ranger, some points in Wilderness Survivial. What this build consists of is raising an army of undead minions and keeping them alive for as long as possible, much like the Necro in Diablo 2.

Im sure gkm will tell you that there is nothing more awesome than the brute overwhelming power of a Minion Master

you dont have too fire up both channels, i only fire up 1 64K channel and the game runs fine.

Yeah that will work, now the only problem is to get it by the mrs. she is already moaning because of the lack of quality time on the week ends.

Its hard to explain that i can't move the couch just right now while i'm busy with a mission. "why is there no pause button" she replies

Especialy if works start at 6:30 and you have to be on the road at 5:30
 
errr... trying to google this but... whats the difference between a signet and a hex? I figured a hex is something cast and a signet an item thats being used? Right?

Signets are spells and skills that can be cast without using energy of some kind. A signet is a bit like using a ring etc. to cast spells in D&D games.

Hexes are spells that makes enemies unhappy. Their damage is usually indirectly, but some also have a health degeneration effect.
 
Access key

Please someone give me a unused Guild Wars access key. In return tell me what game access key you want and i will give it to you to play online with

tks gkm. will Backfire work on a signet spell then or not? since there is no energy involved....

by the way my current use for Shatter Delusions is to cast it just after Backfire kicks in at the target, followed by Phantasm for the kill.

@Vercogen - i will check whats in my storage and keep any further purple drops i get. Whats your current staff so i know whats better to look out for?

Its hard to remember everything
Damage 11-18 (purple)
Reduce blood and curses casting time by half
That's about it i think

You probably need to put this in a new thread, since you are less likely to get an inactive GW player in this thread.

I do not think backfire works for signets and Adrenaline based skills, but I am not 100% sure. Backfire can often work multiple times if the enemy for example casts flare or something like that. But if you can get the timing right, then it is good to use, I would guess. Have not been able to master it myself.

Backfire hurts a lot, but do not see it as the final word on killing casters.
 
@gkm - yeah, for caster killing better skills will come around like Spirit Shackles, etc.

@Vec - is there a mod that one can add that gives energy to a staff? for starters your current staff looks hard to beat but i think you need to hunt for mods to add to it.
 
You can use this staff for comparison (Kole's Torment green):

My wife has one. It is probably the top necro staff at the moment.

So, your staff looks pretty good and will be hard to improve on with a random drop. There are some good ones available from collectors as well later in the game that nearly matches Kole's.
 
@gkm/vexx07/mccrack - you got any chars perving in their low levels around piken square? i want to complete a few of the main quests tonight so i can at least be by Yaks Bend before midnight...
