Guild Wars 2: Pre-Release Discussion

[Rhyis.]

Yeah I've been through about 5 now and this one seems the most up-to-date.

What're people doing with Warriors? Haven't been digging too deep to overhype myself, but if my BWE3 time is any indication, greatsword was my love.

Off the top of my head, and having never played Warrior, this looks like a fun setup. :3 Don't forget to have a look at the runes and traits.

Glass cannon wtf you gonna do about it punk!? build

I'll see your glass cannon and raise you one porcelain pistol.
The above build -- mine, that is -- is a terrible, terrible idea... unless you're DPS'ing the dummy golems in the mists.

[Kachiko]

Glass Cannons can be fine, so long as you can hide in the zerg. I loved it as Warlock, in the old school AV, where battles raged back and forth, and you could hide in the zerg, 1-2 shotting people. Might not translate well to WvWvW, but it's not too hard to experiment a little and see.

This Build is what i'll be using or something similar for pvp, pve i will always have a MH/Shield combo

[Alderaan]

I'm... not sure which two big alliances you're referring to... if it's BG, my efforts to get a lot of people together aren't to win in WvWvW, but to have fun in WvWvW. Winning makes WvWvW more fun, but it isn't necessary. Same goal, different motivations. Perspective! lol.

My bad, was referring to Titan, Ascension alliance. We'd rather play against them than roll on their coattails. Being on the same beta server currently as Ascension hasn't been very fun as everything is always captured and nothing really to do. Condemned is a really cool bunch of folks and i played against them in Aion, but we'd still rather play against them.

This build talk (mainly the website) made me buy the game. Wasn't even planning to yet, was going to wait for a Christmas sale or something. I'm so weak to theorycrafting and hype.

Made that for my asura guardian, no idea if it's viable, dont care, I'm healin (to start with anyway). I played it a bit more during that last stress test, hammer is really fucking strong, and staff was pretty much exactly what I was looking for. So I've kind of switched over from human necro to that... still going to play both, but probably going with my asura first.

[EpicdemicGaming]

There are some great guides out there. If you go to youtube and search Moldran and AyraSwag they have the best ones I have seen so far. Moldran also includes the link to his builds in his info tab.

1hr seems suspicious. knowing anet I wouldn't rule out any surprises.

[Rhyis.]

Probably a test for their log in stuff.

[Plow]

[Crizto]

Can you purchase it on Amazon and get the 3 day head start from that?

[Plow]

yeah but I don't really care about that

[Arelian]

There is no preorder bonus outside of the ring and 3-day headstart.

[Drafted]

big update today 8/13

[Nate0922]

Isn't Amazon giving a $5 credit in addition to the normal pre-order bonus/

[Takiwaki]

If they are it has nothing to do with it it being a pre order bonus and more to do with it being amazon ...
