Guild Wars, questions...

It seems as everyone of DSL had a Lag issue last nite, a few of our members had problems while they were on DSL... I only had a problem trying to browse web-sites yet gw ran absolutely smoothly...
 
on iBurst so the last time i had lag was like 4 months ago - theres one for the wire vd wireless "pedantic idiots" ( see above) :P

Got my Pre-release pack from btgames - very similar to the other pre orders in terms of content, really enjoy the soundtrack for Nightfall however - the whole north african/blackhawkdown styl - very cool - and the bonus weapons for the dervish and paragon look great.

so go get your pre order before launch!
 
Armor

I think i've made a big mistake.

I bought myself some Cathan 15k armor last night.

I'm a MM and obviously went for the MM armor with bloodstained boots.

My questions is wouldn't it have been better to bought a MM tunic that gives you a total of 15 armor while contolling 10 minnions, Blighter's Gloves that gives you +20 armor while hexed, Bonelace Leggings that gives you +15 Armor vs Piercing attacks and this will give you 50 Armor if all the conditions is favourable.?????:confused: :confused:

As for the MM armor that will only give you +15 because is not stackable???:confused: :confused:

OK i think i can answer my own question here LOL
If the damage is dealt on your tunic and you have 10 minnions you have +15 armor, as for the leggings, if its dealt on your legs agian +15 armor. So it depends where the damage is dealt.???(i hope my tenses is correct here LOL)

Yes, depends where dmg is dealt
But on average tunic and leggings take the most dmg, tunic is 37.5% and leggings is 25%
Head, Hands and feet are all 12.5%

So with this theory put your most protective stuff on your chest and legs.

It is all relative though... ;) :D

gratz with the armor btw :)

Hi everyone. Hoe gaan dit. hoezit. howzit. ho$h. aweh......
Oooooook. Now that we got that out of the way hoes ya'll doing.
Can somebody please tell me what the story is with kurzick alliance and faction. i just got my 10000 kurzick and then went on to kill shiro a bit later and finally got my 60% explorer thingy. I also played a fiar amount of alliance battles this weekend. So my question is. In the guild hall there are two dudes. One to go to alliance battles and the other who wants me to give him 5000 kurzick and then right my name. Whats this for exactly? When i view my hero i only have 10000 kurzick . does it stay there. If i give that dude 5000 then do the kurzick not like me anymore since i had to get 10000 for them in the first place? And in the guild hall it show something sad like 192 kurzick faction or something...then it dropped to 170 and then back up to 190 odd. whats that about?
I am lost here ...
Please heeeeeeeeelp.
 
me again.
Gonna pre-order nightfall.
the standard pack is going for like R280 and the collectors is almost R450. They both have and extra char slot and free weapons. So what extra does the collectors edition have for the extra cash. Does anyone know.
Thanks

You can only acquire 10K faction on both sides. When you reach this you must spend it (otherwise any faction points you gain further will not be added and be lost) by trading it for jadeite's (luxon) or amber (kurzick) for 1000 faction points / piece. In other words, you can get 10 amber chunks or jadeite's for 10K faction points.
If you do not want to trade it for this, you can transfer your faction points to the guild. This will acrue to your guild's total. You can only transfer amounts of 5K faction points. When transferring you must sign your name by typing it in. This transferring of faction points helps toward the title of Friend of the Luxons / Kurzicks (which is a total of 250 000 faction points transferred, after this is Ally of the Luxons / Kurzicks, etc.)
I do not think it is possible doing it in somebody else's name by signing their name when doing the transfer. You must type in your current logged char name. This title is account based so once you start transferring you will see it on your other chars as well. I also do not know of a way you can transfer actual faction points to another person.
The guy that wants you type in his name is looking for someone to help him towards his Friend-title or maybe even the next level/s.

Be aware also that if you have 10K faction on both sides, you will lose faction on the one side when start spending on the other side.
It is not a good idea to have faction points on both sides.

The Guild's total of Faction points goes up and down as people transfer their points into the guild.
Your guild's faction has a daily upkeep cost, if you do not transfer anything, your total will decrease by I think 10% per day, i.e. 100K total - 10K (10%) = 90K faction the next day.

Your my hero lol.
thank you very much for the advice and i am appreciative as always. Now i dunno which one to buy. Standard would be fine but the pre-release sounds good with the bonus slot and weapons not so interested in the collector stuff even though they would be nice.
Did i miss it or does the collector pack come with extra char slot or not. Cause thats the clincher for me.
 
AFAIK no char slot with the standard or collectors versions.
Watch out for some specials, Take2, is running a special where if you pre-order they will give you basically the items from the pre-release pack for free (although they don't say this but it is rather a coincidence, is it not ;))

BTgames also has a special. If you order pre-release and decide to go for pre-order too they will basically deduct the pre-release amount value from the pre-order total, in other words R49.

either or I guess :cool:
