Guild Wars Gamer Blog

[Venn]

I experimented with this with some success over at our TitanQuest boards and thought I might give it a go here. While we have an official blog cooking maintained by admins and writers, this is a gamer journal for you guys; to write about your latest goings on in Guild Wars and such.

So I've finally started gathering all the ingredients for the baby moa omelette, I mean mini-pet. Apparently the deadbeat in Marga Coast, Chuno, didn't want to give me the quest for the berries or whatever. Luckily I've been very casual about filling up my Hall of Monuments.

Did the prereq quests for "To Sorrow's Furnace". I hope you like dwarves because the nonsense they put you through make you want to declare Dwarven genocide. On the plus side, the actual Sorrow's Furnace dungeon is fairly painless and actually fun with a competent group. I spent most of the time getting my enchantments stripped while my girlfriend and our guildies tore through the mob groups.

I gots me my 5th Honor statue, though!

Well Ruse bullied me into getting my game reinstalled. Last night I spent my time played trying to get a decent build for my warrior together. It's kind of embarrassing what I ran on her beating the entire Factions campaign.

I prefer the term "strongly encouraged."

...you still don't have your moa, do you?

I'm back to playing after a painful absence. I was hacked a few months back and it really tore me up. Three years of work just gone. Parts of elite armors broken when gold farmers tried to salvage my runes. Entire armor sets salvaged for mats (obby armor and vabbian armor) and well, everything missing. Good minipets, el tonics, ectos...all my mats...it was a nightmare.

But the biggest nightmare, because I'm an altoholic, would have been having to rerune 23 character's heroes all at the same time. That would have killed me. I found my solution in the Mercenary Pack.

One of the things most people don't like about the pack is that you have to rune your mercenaries on each character you take them. Well sure, why not, they're just like heroes. But for the most part, I had to rerune my guys anyway, so....

by buying the Mercenary Pack I can play my favorite eight characters all at the same time, without reruning ANY of their heroes. This was the best option for me.

During this time I switched my main from a Nightfall Necromancer to a Prophecies Mesmer. Of course, my old main is now one of my heroes. It's pretty exciting. My mesmer has completed every game but Nightfall, so that's what I'm working on now. Just got to the Bone Palace.

After a few months of trying other games, I realized what I should have realized in the beginning. There's nothing like TGuild Wars.

Well Ruse bullied me into getting my game reinstalled.

Points for Ruse, then. It's actually a shame that you needed to be bullied to get that done at all!

Getting hacked s*cks bigtime... it happened to a friend of mine as well, and he never did find the courage to return to GW after that. Glad that you made it back.

Hmm, I don't get it. Like this thread to be some kind of a blog?

It was intended to become that, but it never really took off...

Well, you probably didn't notice but - you necro'd the thread. Now the second (also the awesome) thing you didn't notice is that you necro'd a blog! Has it been done before?
