First I'll send my Factions W/N over to inspect the new lands and gather information regarding skills before settling down and considering bringing a new Dervish into the world.

I plan on starting by migrating my Tyrian monk Sanctum because I play him most often. I will also make a couple of other chars to try them out.

Depends. Most likely, we will get Anet's "modest" halloween event on the same weekend Nightfall is released. If so, I'll be attending the event first and go from there.

I like inflicting new classes on old missions - so I'm probably going to get my new Dervish & Paragon to Kamadan as soon as I can and head over to Tyria & get Protector of Tyria on 'em.

I will first create my Paragon and Dervish. Then, I'll bring over my Warrior (looking forward for those new 15k) and Monk.

Like some people already said, districts will be full of D's and P's.

Probably the same path as for factions:
1) Get my main character (ele) through as fast as possible
2) Make a new profession character, get them through the game
3) go through slowly with my warrior, maxing out titles along the way
4) while doing #4, be slowly advancing my other 6 characters
5) Run out of time before ch 4 comes out ( I only beat factions with 3/8 , Tyria with 3/8 as well )

I plan on taking it at my own pace with a new Dervish who will no doubt be spoiled with every set of 15k including FoW in the future. I have everthing ready for him. Black dyes to mix to make some unique colors, bonus item weapons, superior vigors. I can't wait.

I'll make my paragon, and my roomie is probably going to make a monk. I may make a dervish next, or I may bring my ele through. After that, whichever of my other 7 characters, not including those just mentioned, I feel like bringing. Hopefully there will be a lack of annoying primairy quests like factions, and I will not begin to loathe having 10 pve characters.

Well, lets see...

Rena, my Tyrian Ele/War will be my highest priority, as always. She wont be getting any new armour though, (Unless there are some more modest sets in the full game,) as I don't really like the NF Ele armour so far.

Then... Probably, Lyon, my new Factions Warrior, to get D as her second profession for the sake of getting earth prayers abilities.

After that, there's the matter of creating a D and a P to see how well I like each class... Initial impressions of both were that they were good solid classes, Dervish can be a lot of fun to play and I like their absolute control over enchantments.

Then, there'll be the small matter of getting all the characters on my 1st account finished... (Only 1 has finished Prophecies, 2 Factions, with one near the end of Factions and all of my prophecies characters around THK/RoF.) So, there's much to be done in the next 6 months, and thats before any farming for greens, (bleugh, what a bore,) solo farming for cash/materials, (less bleugh, because it's always rewarding, unlike pugging for greens in location x, y or z, but still boring,) or just playing something else, (GWNF has the same Eu release date as Disgaea 2, which for me will be a 500 hour game, quite easily, considering the 600+ hours I spent on the 1st one. Also, not to mention, they both come out on my little sis' 14th birthday, so I'ma gonna be B-R-O-K-E )

Gaze at uber CE content.

Grab my monk (He's uber too) and go through every place in Elona, exploring everywhere all the first time I go through, so I can get GM cartograper(maybe one of the first?) At some point I will make a Derv and to reserve a name, make a Para just because I want one class of everything... etc... See how it goes for a while...

And ultimate goal: Get PKM. Somehow.

Pre-Nightfall
  1. -Stocking up on supplies for four days and a fifth day emergence ration, IV bags with my favorite caffeine drink in them ready to go. Quick microwaveable foods, (hot pockets, pizza rolls) tape and tooth picks to keep eyes open.
  2. Rearranging furniture to make the shortest trip the bath room as possible with out blocking emergence aid if needed (safety first) move fridge and microwave with in easy reach. And making sure a doctor is on call and 911 is on speed dial. Disconnecting door bell turning off all phones but one (which will be turned off after the call of you game is ready to be picked up)
  3. Get doctors note explaining some made up illness that gets me out of work for a week.
  4. Secure the house put up no trespassing signs in front yard, crime scene do not cross tape across the all doors and windows.
  5. Optional if applied: Send family off to sisters or mother house for four days (Monday being a recuperation day). Pets get sent to kennel.
  6. Camp or sleep next to place where the game will be received.

And just joking around of course.

Since I missed the preview weekend (noobish move on my part) I'll probably start off with either a paragon or dervish (tbd) and go through whatever beginning area until I can bring my ranger over to finish the story. Then complete the rest with my new char... then have tea and crumpets to celebrate.

I am surely going to start a new character and explore the entire world like I did in the preview weekend I was very impressed that before I even got off the starter island that I was already 20 with plenty of missions still to do there where also elite missions that you had to uncover that where outside the different zones as you explored also.

I would like to follow the story line and see what unfolds then I will take my pre-exisiting characters and have them go thru the story line also and gather some new elite skills on the way to improve on my current builds and also see what is required for some of the new armor .

im going to take it slow- Im not going to rush to the end with my farmy-type characters because If I take my time and enjoy the game, the prices will drop anyways... that and I have the preorder items which will do me just fine for the new classes.


I wont buy any 15k armor til I see a pic on guildwiki first-> I actually use that as a decision for male vs female when making a new class/character... but Im going female for paragon for sure, I love the dance.

EDIT*Actually, one of the first things I will try to do is unlock the prophecies and cantha Heros using characters that have beaten the game -theoretically this will unlock them for pvp characters to use.. since I might start using my pvp slot more (or have to buy another)

I bet there will be a LOT of dervishes running around, just like the assasins in early factions.
So ill wait and blaze through with my MM necro to scout things out and possibly get some rare drops which i can sell for a redicilous amount of money and buy some nightfalls 15k armor for my ele, who i will be taking through after my necro.
When im done with that ill stand around some area with lots of ppl and shine in my new armor for a while
Then MAYBE i will make a para, possibly a derv and go through the game at a nice and comfortable pace and look at all the beautiful sights.

Yep, same here. Monk first, or perhaps my mesmer. Either of these then creating a new one.

Ill do what I did with factions.

I'll take my tyrian born Ele through the entire game to get experience of.

I'll get 100% exploration and protector on the Elonia before I create any local characters.

Then hopefully Ill be onto my 6th title.

I've decided to take my ele through missions just before a new monk. My ele was the first character I ever created in Factions and I'll take her across first... Shortly after I'm going to make a new character, a Mo/Me and start from scratch in Elona. This way I can flit between a more experienced character and a new character. Also, if my new character needs anything odd...like those irritating drake fins or whatever they were in the preview, my ele can go solo a few to try to get one. I never managed to get any of those things when I tried the preview!

After the Ele is through I will start on bringing across the Mesmer, Ritualist, Necro and Ranger...probably in that order.

I'm going to see what happens with Dervishes and Paragons. I want to see if either is going to be like Assassins before I start one. My prediction is Dervishes will turn out to be the Elonian "sin" and people will not be able to play them well...and Paragons will be ... "ok"...but never as good as a rit. My thoughts.

Make a monk. Then I'll probably make a dervish, and give a go at solo farming. Yeah, have never done it before. And I give it 1 week till a viable solo build has been made.

Chances are I'll be playing regularly with guildmates - 2 or 3 people so a party of all Derv/Para is gonna suck. So I think I'll make a monk first. :P

As much as I want to play Para and Derv really soon, I want to enjoy the storyline as well so I'll take one for the team. :P

I'll start by bringing my mesmer to Elona... but before doing any of the decision quests with her, I want to know how they affect the playing - she is too dear to me to risk doing permanent or even semi-permanent mistakes with her. Propably I'll make as many characters as I have slots and do the beginning quests with them until I get enough information to proceed. And, if everything else fails, there is also farming... those 15k armors to all of my characters are going to take a lot of money...

I can't wait to unleash my ritualist upon Elona. Beat the game with him and then work on my monk.

After that, I'll try my mesmer.
