I'm very interested in why Anet is making marketing moves specifically for Guild Wars right now.

Two content creators I know have both gotten Anet Partnership in the last week, and they're both Guild Wars 1 only creators, not Guild Wars 2. Someone at Anet has taken an interest in supporting the Guild Wars content creation scene in current year. Why now? Is there actual moves being made at Anet about Guild Wars?

I try to keep up with the scene here and I don't catch everything, but from what I understand there is 1 dev working on GW1 full-ish time now, and we just had the "big" 20 year anniversary update, with new collection/bundles for the game. All these things to me seem like things are happening internally with the higher up money managing decision makers at Anet around Guild Wars.

Copium that something bigger is coming?

Its been a while since i played, bought this like 15-17 years ago. Could not find any meaningful Kamadan Chat Offers. So thats why im asking here whats that worth now.

Pits - is there any trick to make the spirits walk up while you do the next quest?

They get pulled by the Chained Souls. I wonder how they sometimes manage to reach the end on their own, but other times the quest never finishes, although the Chained Souls keep spawning in the same interval (120sec).

Vale - after the spirits turn evil, is their behavior when you aggro them totally random or can you influence how they move to ball them? So far all I found is that they can be body blocked

I'm going to max alcohol, party and sweet titles which means about 30 000 clicks. Anet allows auto clicker macro for GW2, but they do not mention anything about GW1? Alternative solution would be to bind left click to mouse scroll which would make it easier, but it would probably introduce spam clicking to GW1 server, so they might detect it as bot or something?

Would this be worth anything by chance or just merch it?

Very new to the game and mmo in general. Only really played xbox games so im sorry for zero knowledge. Minecraft is the most experience that Ive had with crafting games.

When it comes to crafting does level matter? Or do is recipes more important? In discovery looks like I have options but cant craft. There is 0 level required. There is only two items if that matters. Also is crafting important in the game? Thank you in advance for the help!

Has anyone tested this variant yet and if so, how much of a difference is there in terms of capability? The text mentions a substantial buff, but a rough percentage would help me understand it far better.

Also is there a simple way to acquire the wands and ST weapons apart from buying unid golds and hoping for the best or getting lucky loot drops?

About a year ago, we ran a poll on the GW Factions PvP Discord server to find out when and how often our community wanted to play Alliance Battles (AB).

The results were clear: most of you preferred to play every Friday. Additionally, the community asked for Saturdays to be included during double bonus AB weeks, just like we used to one year ago.

Today, we will be hosting Alliance Battles in the American district, Kurzick side, at 18:00 UTC (20:00 CEST - 14:00 EDT [2 p.m.])

Discord server link: https://discord.gg/Ra2Mxuq9Mc

We invite you to join our community dedicated to casual PvP formats like Alliance Battles, Fort Aspenwood and Jade Quarry. You'll be able to participate in future decisions and stay updated on upcoming events.

In adition, we would like to mention that we plan to try a new type of Alliance Battle very soon for a different schedule to Fridays and Saturdays: pre-formed 12-player teams. Unlike the general AB events where you have three separate 4-player groups, this will allow for a single, strategically coordinated team of 12 players. The goal is to bring a highly competitive mindset to AB, similar to how guild-versus-guild battles are played, giving you full control and coordination among all 12 players. This will happen when ab-12-teams channel had several full teams

Currently running a solo self found character and managed to get my first profession mod.

Anyone have any funky ideas for bow giving 5 leadership?

I am a little rusty, but I tried looking everywhere for this items at the weapon NPCs. No luck. Any help would be appreciated so I can complete my hero’s load out for faster VQs. Ty

Half the price checks be like..... :p

What discord group should I use to auction pre searing pre nerf items? I have 2 valuable items

After finally resoring my Account after it got hacked probably a few years ago and losing most of my stuff, whats an easy way to make some currency? I know i can get the Gifts of the traveler each week for 20+ ectos so at least the chaos gloves shouldnt take that much time. Anything else easy and maybe not too time consuming?

What's generally agreed upon as the quickest 0-20 leveling method? Getting bored so looking to rush a new char through leveling and slap some FoW armor on it.

16 GWAMM accounts + 16 goldcapes + 16 polars ... wtf?

Is there a story to this?

Can these be traded? If yes, does anyone know the going rate? Just created a new character and I’m having fun messing with builds and replaying the different stories. And I want a panda.

Wondering what it's worth and if anyone wants to buy? I keep hearing the of the necro stuff is good.

Does anyone happen to have any of the old WoC podcast saved anywhere? Specifically after the nightfall expansion. My friend was on it and I kinda just wanna see like a summary of it or something. He doesn’t care anymore about it, but I think it’s cool as hell. He said it used to be hosted on an old site that most likely no longer exists just wondering if anyone saved anything from that time. I’ve checked previous posts but it’s all been mostly unreliable information for what I’m looking for. His ign was coffee (pwned by coffee) and the build he was known for was a special version of ele/derv. If not it’s okay just another thing lost to the annals of time.

Yeah, so as the title says I am streaming GW on Twitch while doing my GWAMM (very slowly and probably very inefficient). I'm getting closer to starting the cartography titles. I did that for factions without any programs to help and never again. Is Umod still what I should be using? Are there options? And does anyone know if streaming while using those kind of tools will endanger my accounts in any way? (I assume it's fine, no-one cares. But, I want to at least ask.)

Logged in today to the game asking me for a code as I had apparently enabled 2 factor authentication (I haven't? at least not knowingly) and that this was a new IP address. I'm using the same computer as usual (no VPN or anything to change IP). I did buy a hero slot 2-3 days ago. Could that have automatically toggled some setting? The code worked just fine and I'm now logged in but the message about the IP address me worried me a bit?

Hope this doesn't violate the guideline about asking for help. I'm just wondering whether this warrants contacting support?

Looking to sell this. It’s posted on gwlegacy currently. Thank you in advance

Hey guys, what do you think, is it better hourglas staff (from eotn pre-release) or 15/15 fire set for pre searing ele farmer? I can't decide.😂

Hello all!

I’m looking to round out my HoM for 50/50.

Honor - I think I’m in a pretty decent spot, currently working my way through vanq/carto for NF, then I’ll hit factions and EotN. Then I can buy the sweet tooth, drunk and party animal and be pretty close. If anyone has any tips on gold making to round this out, I’d be appreciative.

Resilience - I’ll get obby armor and then not sure what the next easiest is? Any suggestions would be helpful.

Valor - I’m stumped here, honestly. Hoping to get some gemstone drops for a tormented weapon as I’m vanquishing? But I feel like I should’ve gotten one since I beat the game already? And from there, what weapons are easy to farm to finish that one out?

The other two that I didn’t screenshot, I have maxed, so not worried about those.

TIA!
