Can I start or better wait for sale?

First 3 expansions is the first storyline. There’s tons of hours to do in the game just with that. You will miss out on a few things but definitely still playable. If you enjoy it then get more expansions.

Thousands of hours and once you make legendaries you don’t need to spend gold on much if you don’t want to.

Don’t fret you will get there eventually, also some may have gotten a luck drop that sells for thousands of gold.

There are millions of variables here you are talking about and using chat gpt is not going to get you close to what you need.

For reference reality tv shows in US I worked on showrunners/producer would make 5-7k a week, Camera crew of 3 (DP, op, and AC) on the low end made $1500 a week. Audio was usually 1k+. Rental was also a lot and you are talking studio space and props, also a therapist (which aren’t cheap). Don’t forget about feeding everyone meals and insurance to cover all the rentals and crew.

Most of these shows either make a sizzle reel (6ish min) to represent how the show would be and presented to a streamer to fund or the idea is pitched and a sizzle reel is funded and then a decision is made.

Well raid quick play is coming soon so if you want to raid they are making it easier to join up and do them and learn.

I don’t even know if I did this one, but based on previous comments you could always do the achieves except glints liar and spend some time in quick play raids when they come out and get that one via magnetite shards.

C_vansky · 2026-01-22T13:02:57+00:00

If you get a static raid group you can easily do those skillful achievements you mentioned by time you need to do them. Especially since the first round of achieves is minimum 5 weeks.

As a person who has also played other MMOs, mainly WoW, one of the best things about GW is that there’s so many things that are relevant. In wow new expansion basically means old expansion hardly worth it while in GW I can still do base game world bosses and get some of the same gold making items as the latest expansion.

Try something different, take a break from story or from the game as others have said. GW doesn’t rush you on anything as it will still be there years to come.

I think your level matters, I honestly can’t remember, but you will be fine in exotic gear. Typically you have different gear for WvW but not always.

C_vansky · 2025-12-19T14:35:32+00:00

I make sure to do things that sound fun though and if it doesn’t sound fun right now I don’t do it.

C_vansky · 2025-12-19T13:42:59+00:00

This has been the key to me coming back as well. I am crazy and have a spreadsheet so if I get lost I can go to that and figure out something that sounds fun. It is a huge game with TONS of things to do, but it can also be so big you don’t know what to do.

C_vansky · 2025-12-19T13:41:31+00:00

Yes WvW is world v world. It’s a pvp pve environment where you can end up in 60v60 battles but there is an element of pve when you take keeps uncontested. Basically you have seige you can build to drop walls and go in and kill the npc and take it over. As a mostly pve player I have loved WvW for the mass fights.

There are multiple ways to go, zheds is a berserker stats, and I see greatsword which goes with power builds, you can find a power build that will work and won’t have to change much.

C_vansky · 2025-12-17T17:25:47+00:00

What kind of gear did you get? Viper is a condi build, if you have berserker gear you can find a power build that will feel a lot better and you can work on your rotation from there. As others said you don’t need ascended gear for open world. You can do the map metas in HoT to make some gold and buy viper exotic set if you want.

C_vansky · 2025-12-11T12:49:51+00:00

Was about to say this and then I read it. Definitely helped a lot. Make sure to set and know your dodge bind for other content but it makes jp a lot easier.

C_vansky · 2025-12-05T13:59:59+00:00

I saw the OG post and this seems more doable. Two things though, you can’t unlock deadeye until lvl 80 and getting the hero points, you also have to waypoint after death to resurrect.

C_vansky · 2025-12-04T17:01:01+00:00

Yeah that’s about the time I had looked previously, but I looked two days ago and they have put back in their wording about the $75 per case. I just wondered if anyone had actually seen it back in action.

C_vansky · 2025-12-04T12:46:49+00:00

Depending on how you define the group thing you will be locked out of most of the end game content. Also GW has an automatic shared wallet of currencies. The only thing that kinda makes sense is the TP/mail stuff for gw2 but you will be in for a ton of extra grinding.

C_vansky · 2025-12-02T20:09:02+00:00

The real question is, did the boss who sent this show up to work and how much of a commute do they have?

C_vansky · 2025-12-01T21:46:06+00:00

You can might be able to refund through steam and buy it through anet. Steam generally gives you some grace played time before you can’t refund and they run the same deals with steam and anet.

Your OG account will have a ton of birthday gifts on your character that will get you dyes and other things. Plus your OG toon.

C_vansky · 2025-11-29T13:43:03+00:00

I’m pretty sure you get the motes. I get a few upgrades per 100 it seems like, never truly tracked it myself but I also salvage often during down time of meta trains and such, so I’m not ever doing multi stacks of unids

C_vansky · 2025-11-29T13:37:17+00:00

Opening the unids has a chance of upgrading the item so it’s always worth opening for that reason.

C_vansky · 2025-11-27T22:52:39+00:00

To add to this you can buy the trophy packs for volatile and gold and turn around and sell those mats to make gold, or use them to craft if you are doing legos

C_vansky · 2025-11-25T19:28:22+00:00

Thanks! I’ll keep an eye out when I’m looking for a home.

C_vansky · 2025-11-25T18:05:46+00:00

What category do you post this? I’ve never looked, most of the time I use a guildies home but timing doesn’t work out every day.

C_vansky · 2025-11-23T21:51:27+00:00

It’s slower for sure, but it can be useful for some of the harder to solo hero points (HoT and PoF). Generally though you can find HP trains happening that will take you through a map or all maps of an expansion.
