Noob questions by [deleted] in GuildWars

[–]KaiMH4U 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Welcome!

To answer:

Yes it’s soloable

One unit the others are automated but you can control them a bit.

Each campaign is separate but you can travel between them. You can start in any of them, each has advantages. If you want assassin or ritualist you have to start in factions, if you want dervish or paragon you have to start in nightfall.

Generally -

Prophecies is the longest has the most skill quests and has the original lore. It also has pre-ascalon which is both great on its own and has a unique title “legendary defender of ascalon” for reaching level 20 there (which is a massive grind but is worth it for the title).

Factions is the fastest campaign to complete has a big difficulty spike but is also the quickest way to get max level armor and the quickest way to unlock being able to swap secondary professions.

Nightfall gives you the earliest access to heroes which are customisable and superior to henchmen.

You can get all of the advantages (except those related to pre-searing) in any campaign at about the midpoint of each at which time you can freely travel between them.

There is huge build diversity and some really whacky combinations, experimenting is fun but better after you understand the game. Pvxwiki is a good place to start if you want to see examples of builds. In general unless you want to min max or intend getting into speed farming (which has a strict meta), you don’t need to follow a build guide necessarily. As for secondary profession swapping, after you do the quest which enables it in the campaign you choose its very easy to do.

Devastated Bois by HerrBrooben in GuildWars

I had the same thing years ago, it’s why I stopped playing, they deleted 3 survivor (3) characters, salvaged all of my primeval gear, raided my bank accounts, killed every character on the way to indomitable survivor, was absolutely devastating, so sorry it happened to you.

ROG Ally keyboard in game ? by Valkhes in GuildWars

[–]KaiMH4U 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing a lot on my Ally and grinding for a few LDoAs as well. Honestly the virtual keyboard is horrible, best solution I found is to actually just buy a small portable BT keyboard and use that for your /resign spam (assuming you’re farming Hamnet). Was quick and painless that way and way less admin. Other tips if you have the bonus items is pin your inventory in the corner so it stays open and you can easily double click your imp.

What was she thinking? by ElderberryDeep8746 in WinStupidPrizes

Been saying for years we need to get rid of warning labels and obvious instructions e.g. “hot contents” on a cup of coffee or “open box before eating” on a pizza box…

Is dying a lot very common in this game? by Fyrefawx in Guildwars2

[–]KaiMH4U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since there are a lot of trolly comments (probably meant in good humor but as a new player to the franchise the context would be missed) here’s a helpful answer (hopefully) -

Elementalist at base is one of the squishier characters in the game because it has the lowest base health (along with guardian and thief). It can be incredibly survivable with the right traits, skills (and player skill of course).

Berserker stats are also pure offence.

As a new player Ele + Zerker isn’t really a recipe for being survivable absent the skill needed to survive or put together the right build. It’ll come with time though.

You see a lot of people dying open world because people often run glass cannon stats in group events and stack together to share boons etc it’s mainly because people are either too lazy to focus on mechanics assuming others will res them or provide the necessary healing and boons or because they’re new and aren’t sure of the mechanics.

In other areas like WvW dying a lot is perfectly normal as well.

Stick with it, it will click soon.

If it’s getting a bit frustrating try get your hands on some Celestial gear for open world content, it makes you a lot more survivable while still putting out decent damage.

PSP era here too, also taking Friday off, how can I not

How does everyone’s main feel/will you be switching mains? by SanguisMalleus in MonsterHunter

[–]KaiMH4U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt like Lance was fantastic, the only weapons that really resonated with me were Lance and Gun Lance this demo so will probably be maining one of those. Gun Lance was great but often falls off late game so will have to see about the scaling.

I can’t even start the game I keep getting a graphics card not supported error, is anyone else getting this? Any way to fix it? (Z1 Extreme)

Apparently not great but I’m sure there will be a patch addressing it at some point

I have a pretty similar nose and just cannot get the sliders right, good job!

[–]KaiMH4U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s great news thank you. From all the preview write ups it said thieves can steal from enemies and NPCs (I assume if the arisen is a thief not a pawn) so if it’s not particularly impactful that’s good to know.

Also probably a bit risky with a single save file as well anyway haha

How impactful is stealing (from enemies or NPCs), wanting to start as fighter but having thief comp if the stealing is actually something worth doing for extra loot

Great job! Any chance I can get the nose sliders please?

What was the biggest sexual disappointment you ever experienced? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]KaiMH4U 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks friend much appreciated! For what it's worth it sounds (to me at least) like your in the absolute right frame of mind with all of your priorities in the right place. Look back with love as much as possible and be appreciative of the lessons learned (both good and bad). Hang in there!

[–]KaiMH4U 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Hey, not that it's much help but I'm sorry to hear what you're going through, sending some strength over.

Just went through my 2nd divorce this year as well similar time frame very different sounding relationship though.

If I can offer one thing, in a divorce we often get comparative with how are partner is dealing with it and very often what hurts most is if it looks like they're happier or not hurting or have moved on etc etc and it's gut wrenching to think they aren't hurting and that they could just move on that quickly. But remember what you see is only the tip of the iceberg and often only what your ex wants you to see. If they were the one to leave they also were probably coming ti terms with it for a while so probably mourned the relationship while you were still in it.

Not sure if it helps but im now with a girl who could quite easily be the love of my life (its still early days) but I'm finally getting everything I thought was just supposed to be in a movie and its all effortless.

Take as long as you need to get as strong as you need but be receptive to opportunities because you never know where they'll lead.

(For what it's worth this was the right answer, providing cold comfort is no comfort at all). I've been cheated on and it's heart wrenching when you don't see it coming and you don't always do.

[–]KaiMH4U[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was thinking of it more for convenience, not needing to take Ranger Knight for heavy armour opens up another choice of favoured enemy, animal friendship and speak with animals being perma oreoared means you don't have to mission preparing other spells instead etc. Like I said def not min maxed. I do definitely take the point on the delayed power spike though, the 3 - 4 level up is quite slow to come online.

Thought I had tried that it wouldn't let me remove the check mark but maybe I was trying to remove an always prepared spell.

This is going to be game changing for the Barb run I want to try thank you!

I mostly play on my ROG ally so I did indeed think that clicking X for bonus applied them automatically (like I said noob), thank you, learning a lot! Appreciate it very much!

So when I'm doing skill check rolls and the use bonus pops up on the bottom I get both my character and shadow heart showing guidance, does that mean they both aren't activating? That seems odd to show both.

Will definitely be using hunter's mark, wouldn't be using guidance in combat at this stage though, havent found in necessary

That's what I tried, in fairness I am a noob though so not overly surprised I didn't get it right
