Official Guild Wars 2 Thread

Since it hasnt been made yet I figured I would pop one up for those playing GW2. List your main char, the server you are playing on, and invite info so we can group up. If you have some tips for everyone post them also here.

Maleenah ( lvl 28 Sylvari Ranger), Tarnished Coast, #Nalukai.8946

[replicant]

Peralta (Lvl 74 Human Necromancer)
Server: Sanctum of Rall
Guild: Gaiscioch
400 Cooking, 252 Tailoring, 114 Artificing

Tips:
Only use the TP to sell items and maybe grab new weapons every 5-10 levels.
You outgrow armor too quickly to keep up with the Joneses. Use drops and event/heart/pq rewards.
Gather everything. Pick two tradeskills and work on them. Discovery experience is beasty for leveling.
Work on doing 100% completions of zones for nice exp and item bonuses.
Every day do your "Daily" achievements. Hit "H" and click Achievements tab to see the list of 4 things. Nice experience and money/items for it.

Very nice. I am in a new guild, but they are quite an awesome lot of people.
Luckily, I also have some people with me from UO, EQ, DAoC, WoW, GW, and a few others who I have gamed with between 3-16 years in MMORPG's.
Just hit 80 shortly ago on my Necro so now it's time to work on Max Stat gear. Gonna be a pain. >_<!

Nice Jerr. I couldn't get into Thief gameplay style since the stealth isn't like I am used to, but they are beasty.
Careful with that chatting. ~_^

They aren't as stealthy as I thought they would be, it is important to get the opening attack though.

Most definitely on the first strike. And yeah, the stealth for Thief and Mesmer is just odd
since I think it doesn't go over 5s or so at most on usage. Still handy enough to make
someone drop target on you allowing you to get a good combo in. Power Thief pushing
3k+ Power is just retarded. They can drop you in a few seconds if you don't react quick
enough.

Indeed, you definitely should not rely on stealth (in PvP), though it can be rather vial in combination with other skills.

Use it if you're taking a tad too much aggro and need those venoms to recharge.
As a thief, I find it hard to bring mesmers down.
And I love the thief's power/strength, lol. Sword/Pistol ftw, can basically kill anything; it has Cripple, bleeding, daze, blind and a a strong skill (especially with critical strikes) that's so cheap.
I also love how they basically have two elites.

[replicant]

Yup, as Necro with my build it's all about watching the people bleed to death in front of me while I stand there dressed like a Pimp in Indigo and Hot Pink.

The door is open for even more gamers now.
For those Mac users feeling left out from Guild Wars 2. Anet has been listening.
