I havent played for some months now. I guess I am in another hiatus period, maybe this time for good. Mostly I just make it as far as seeing what is going on in the forums.

Have you ever heard the song “The Thrill Is Gone,” by the incredibly gifted B.B. King? Since that’s how I feel about GW now. I really don’t do anything at times, other than just talk to old friends and guild mates. I did that whole “GW new years resolution,” thing already by getting all my 10 toons through EotN (which almost drove me nuts), and got at least one set of ascended armor for all my toons. Furthermore, I have completed every campaign with my toons. As for “farming and title hunting”, it’s a complete waste of time until (maybe) GW 2 comes out. I am sorry, but I am not going to set myself up for a huge disappointment, when I find out HoM means even less then what everyone is hoping for.

I am hoping for something different in the near future to tie me over. Until then I will be in this mode for the time being. Enjoy.

Gotta get 15 more titles and fill out my HoM. This weekend, I did some HA, and this week, I'll hopefully get to doing more vanquishing and exploring of Elona, as well as a little bit of HFFF on the side.

ive yet to get to people know me on any character. was working on it at one time but got bored playing the same character day in and day out. it was my very first character i ever made. i turned him into a mule and remade him. im now on my way to 10 triple protectors(one of each profession) have completed 3 and 2 are close. i like playing different characters and cant come to dedicate my time to play only one in a chase for GWAMM. if i did nothing but play a single character i would of found a new game to play a year ago. switching to different characters atleast keep stuff interesting enough to keep playing.

That is more fail then GW :x

Wielding 2 swords was entertaining for a few weeks, but the same maps over and over got boring very quickly. Not to mention the fact you can explore most maps in 5-10 minutes.

/end rant about over hyped piece of shit game

Lawl, you sound a little overly-heated today. Anyway, I did get tired of the game a week or two after launch and just recently started playing again because of all the newly added updates. It does have substantially more replayability than GW though. I don't remember that much hype at all though...

I think I'll move into The Agency when it's released, looks very promising.

I visited that Hellgate site, where they'd been hyping it since 2005/2006 :x

Mythos looks ok for a freebie. I'm not paying to play again. Not enough time to grind the fed-ex quests they all come with.

If I do log on, it's mostly sitting in Shing Jea doing nothing. Sometimes I'll play for 20 minutes finishing up random quests or missions on one of my alts, or trying to up a title on my main. Not much else though.

I'm vanquishing, and trying to find a way to solo FoW with just three heroes. Reasonably successful at both.

Although right at the moment I'm bored to tears because Chakk Schawakk Klakk (or whatever his wacky name was), the excessively patrolling hydra boss, is somewhere in Vulture Drifts and I just can't find the mofo.

Roleplay?

Isn't GW a family game?

I heard they like to roleplay in Second Life. You can even buy your pixel GF a house for real money!

Still need to vanq ~18 areas on my main character, then I'm done on titles on that one for a while (will get me to 26 max, rest is too expensive/time consuming to max in near future).

Next: monk around a little, have not done that for a while, might max some titles on him.
Maybe get the dust of some old characters I have not played in ages.

And I recently started a new guild (split) so I have plenty of work there.

I do a little bit of everything, but probably 60% pvp.

I've been playing since about 4 months after proph was released but never did any elite missions except FoW. So Urgoz is probably next.

Titles mainly.

Even though they're amazingly boring sometimes. And when I finally get one I feel a great sense of loss, since I have to find something else to do.

As for me, I only have 44 vanquishing tasks and a tons of farming left to do. Perhaps I can get my other seven characters through Eye of the North. Personally, I don't find the three campaigns and one expansion to be enough to satisfy me.
Pick your favorite class get to max-level as fast as possible, then play the entire game, Quests, missions, and all else in HM. Some quests are nearly impossible to complete before hitting max DP. For added challenge do this while working for Survivor titles. It's all possible, even if you're not "cheesing" it with two accounts. Though you'd likely have to give up a large part of your Real Life for such an challenge. If you're looking for something to do that's really easy then jump into another MMO for a time. Most MMOs allow you to spend your whole life farming for stats so you can dominate the spoon-fed content. If you like your gaming easy, head to another MMO, if you want a challenge, live in Hard Mode for the life of a character, and survive it.

Would be nice if we could create Max HM characters, with perma death.
