Regretted a reroll?

Have you ever regretted rerolling a toon in guild wars? The reason I ask is I am thinking very seriously about rerolling my dervish but was curious if other people have regretted doing it.

My necro. His face looked cooler way back when. Now he looks fat.

-My 2nd warrior. I was bored with my Tyrian one, so when Factions rolled out I rolled a Factions warrior so I could experience the starting isle content, as well. I capped about 2 million Xp on him in about a month, loaded him with tons of high-end gear, etc. Then I got bored with him, went to my Prophecies warrior and deleted my Factions one. I actually don't regret it too much, even though I wasted over 700-1mk. I was just bored.

-My current warrior's hair. Again, like the necro, his hair seemed cool at the time...

I see, that sucks. I can't stand my dervish's face and I can't stand the name haha.

Deleted all my characters besides my main warrior... Then a month later I recreated most due to new farming builds (Solo fow necro... regretted deleting my necro) and birthday presents

Have deleted....
Mesmer x3
Ranger x2
Ritualist
Elementalist

Couldn't stand my Ritualists name, hated deleting him, but 2 weeks later he was just as good as the old one, and had survivor. :P

Mesmer, sometimes I regret it, buying all the skills again gets expensive.

Elementalist, I can't even remember what face/hair he had.

Ranger...was too noob to care.

Yes I do specially my first few "Good ones" not the "testers" or I would have a few 2nd year mini pets by now
as it is i have to wait 1 or 2 more months now for em. LMAO
But thems the breaks and some of my first Charrs were much better than what I can make now
Plus were very far in the game

So buy slots try not to reroll didn't have the slots back then.


Edit Spelling chucker didn't work.......

What sucks is when you get real far with your character.

...And then the regret comes.

I have had it for 7 months with a fair number of elites capped but I never really used it in PvE only PvP for some reason.

When I bought my second account, I had to move one of my toons accross so that it would be 3+pvp on one account and 3+mule on the other. My first ever character drew the short straw and got re-made on the other account, only to be deleted and re-created again 3 months later when the online store came online.

Lol, I have re-rolled my monk 4 times now. First two times was in prophecies, last two in factions. 3 of those times I got her to 20, max armor (once she had 15k), and a few elites. Don't know why I kept deleting her, honestly. Just kinda got tired of heal/prot everywhere, smiting wasn't powerful enough, and I despise the monk farm builds - so I just kept deleting her. I'm giving her another try because of the PvE-only skills, and because I had a free spot after deleting my Dervish. Bleh.

I've redone warriors, sins, eles, and mesmers a couple of times, too. Half the time I get them to 20 and max armor before I decide to re-roll. A lot of wasted time, I guess, but I had fun, so it's not too wasted.

Yeah, I don't plan on rerolling after this and I hope it doesn't come to it lol.

re-roll? no. but i had a mate accidentally delete my main, in short i had 8 chars all called cottage pie, sai, psi, pyre, die, etc...and a mix-up happened when he came to 'have a go' on guild wars.


rerolling from that is somewhat 'difficult', you realise you no longer have the ectos and perfect monk things that took you a while to collect because they were simply rare, rather than just expensive, all skills on one char, loads of places explored, etc, the entire game changes.


I basically just kill people these days, tbh it's much better than telling yourself "i must have this much cash by X time" or get whatever ubar item. imho, farming to me now seems simply ill-behaviour.

yes. My first perma pre ele back in early 06.

Buy more slots and you wont need to reroll. XD

It's the name and face that bother me lol. Buying a slot would be a waste of money and a slot still haha.

I remade my Paragon three times, my Mesmer twice and my Ritualist once. Never really regretted doing so, but I did wish I hadn't put so much money and time into them beforehand. Many sets of 15k armor scrapped...

hell yes i do regret, i mean i rerolled all my characters a week ago, so far i got 2 lvl 12s and im having a hard time playing since i get bored so quick.And since i deleted every money and equipment, i have to start from scratch, kinda hard i tell you. Its like i just wasted 3,5k hours of my life

Will suck at first, but in the long run you will be happier with your better looking, better named Dervish. Was in the same boat with my Rit, just take the dive, I am very happy that I have mine renamed

Wow, that's crazy. Good luck getting everything going again. Thanks for all the replies guys, it's very insightful.

If you dont play much anyway, just wait for GwEn to come out and see if there are any character changing options. I know it is something that has never gotten any real feedback from anet, but they have a way of bringing much-asked features when we arent expecting it.
