When was Guild Wars the best?

still enjoying gw i like my titles but i think ppl forget and look at the past through rose tinted glasses but really who can for get the days before heros when it took an hour to make a party only for it to leave 10 mins in to mission

or you cant join your not part of the holy trinity theres little or no diference to what we got now only real difference i have noticed for sure is the bile that now comes from the pvp/pve crowd i know a lot of ppl wont agree but i think that little issue is all down to having every thing unlocked

It was fun until I learned how to play, while everyone else remained bad. Because then it makes pugging annoying

Guild Wars was best actually in beta as skill balances happened randomly and there was total UAX.I will say it was best back in 05 and early part of 06 summer maybe.

Right now. Guild Wars has never been better. There is now more content, more titles, more to do and more to explore than ever. And ovet time many bugs have been fixed.

The rest can be brought back to player experience.

hm, the time I liked best----when sorrows furnace came out..and we hoped that all of the 'expansions' would be just like it--free and with great stuff attached. I remember getting my first green items, I was like WOW a green item.....and then doing runs with firestorm....then the next week they nerfed firestorm and all the eles changed to water----
ah those were the days my friends.......

imo Pre-HM NF was the best time. there was the most to do
the guild ladder didn't consist of mostly dead/bought guilds (you also had to have a partially decent rating to be on it.)
FoW was still leet and only rich peeps had it, lol @650k fow >.<
Bambi was almost special

now..why isnt now the best....
everything.. dead ladder, r/d's with tigers, nubs with big titles (thanks UB >.<). nothings worth anything anymore.
Heroes damaged the game because now you don't have to pug everything, you don't have to work around all your teammates' inadequacies. Whole sense of pve kinda dead...not really a co-op game anymore unless you try really hard to make it one.
and we all know why UB has damaged the game...

I would say during 2005-2006, but only because the game was new for me and very exciting.

Right now. Because it never had more content and options.

The player base got a little whiny tough.

EXACTLY.

Before Factions came out was the best and I'm stunned there is even debate about this. Some people must not have played that long. GW of today doesn't even compare to GW of old.

I like those old days, but I think what really ruined it was: NERFS, inscrips, and now rares are NO longer rare and thus the market is starting to suck

Gw was the best when:
Black dye was 9k
sup vigor was 80-120k
seeing a lvl 20 was like "wow"
HoD swords were the thang
you could make really funky mixes with dye remover

Before the real PvP tournaments ended.

Golden age of "really awesome" guildwars started about when respecing was made free and ended few months after Factions release imho.

I think now is better than before IMO. There are lots of things to do now. Be it title grind or just playing with your friends. And HM, the best thing that happened to GW so far

Any time until the implementation of Ursan Blessing was the best.

Right up to the end of the GWFC.

late 2005-early 2006 i would say.

Amen.

Guild wars was best - tomorrow.

Anet has continuously improved the game. The only problem is that it's a bloody old game, so the community has shrunk a bit. But for a game of that age, it's doing extremely well.
