Yeah, it's kinda odd that they let the expansion owners beat on the non-expansion players. Got my ass handed to my fast cast fire nuke character today, he just can't compete any more.

but of course...it makes you upgrade since the pve shit is so god damn dull and boring ppl mainly went to pvp (which is what i did) so then there's no reason to buy the expansion so a-net gave a reason... <_<



screw GW folks and wait for LOTRO to come out! :D

Fast cast eles are outdated. Soft target, low max energy and easily shutdown.

The fire ele I've been using in HoH lately consists of:
Immolate
Fireball
Rodgorts Inv.
Meteor Shower
Glyph of Energy
Lava Front
Bed of Coals
Sig

I absolutley own alter maps and do considerable dmg in narrow areas. Otherwise im just a good part of the spike.

Well Dunkin and I got Nightfall.  Gonna be checking it out.  As a first impression and didn't quite understand why after installing all 3 Nightfall CDs then game needed to do so much in game downloading...what the heck was on those 3 cds??

Also, whats with those spears the paragons use??  Do they magically return to them? Or do they just have an unlimited supply of spears?? weeeeeird....

wow, you're going fast, then again, some queero probably finished it the day it was released. and mo, if you bought the game you probably didn't need to install the cd's, just the cd-key..unless you uninstalled the gw client entirely

Nah I figured the CDs had all of Nightfalls content on them.  That way I wouldn't have to download every new area when playing. Seemed that was not the case, silly as it may seem to me.  Ya, basically they shouldn't just sell the damn cdkeys alone so I didn't have to waste space with these boxes and manuals.  I won't buy a cdkey online cause I use Best Buy credit to buy all my software :P

Sounds just like a typical Guild Wars mission. I thought they would have learned from their mistakes by now.

I know you have some major gripe about Thunderhead Keep but I think I've failed that mission twice ever. There isnt a mission I cant beat on a second try...until now. The only possible way I can think of doing it is having a war compltely on distracting stuff like the stance-canceling Wild Blow and a necro completely set up for warrior hate (SS, Faintheartedness, Shadow of Fear, Incidious Parasite, ect) as far as I know, he doesnt have any hex removal.

Did everyone get their Halloween goodies yesterday?

There is a new type pumpkin crown this year and a new potion, the Transmogrifying Potion turns you into a candy corn golem.

Also, the Nightfall people got Witches Hats.

Oh I like how after playing for 2 hours the game tells you to do take a break lol.

Well I still have my collection of 23 ectoplasm.  The last time I went down there I didn't see 1 ecto drop in 5 tries in the UW.  That was probably the biggest reason for my long vacation from GW, Anet's screwing with drop rates.
