I have recently rejoined Guildwars after quiting for a good 5/6 months.

I remember there always being specific places where people would gather and do things, like Droknars Forge for example.

I am struggling to find a crowd of people anywhere. I have been around all 3 campaigns and nothing seems to be hapenning, its all dead.

What happened to dungeon groups, chest groups, fow groups e.t.c.

I literally log on for 30 mins then log off because im so bored....

I've been so busy lately that all I have time for is going on Guild Wars to troll in Random Arenas and to enter them with purposely bad builds.

Now that's something I have not tried yet, thanks for the heads up. All I do is sell in trade channel til I'm to piss drunk to see the screen, and play EVE Online all other times.

Farm for goals (Currently saving up for a tormented item or two), do Fort Aspenwood with my guild, partake in dungeon runs with my guild (mostly CoF), currently working on my cartographers titles with my Dervish, and after that I'll go through the defender titles and probably the vanquishing titles.

Dwarven boxing (safest way to leg survivor XD)
HM dungeons, mostly SC's though, although I do all for dungeon guide
DoA when I get the chance
Last bit of vanq's left in Tyria
HM handbooks to finish up some EOTN titles on sin
Lux VFFF at qinkai

So for the most part, it's not about what's left to do; it's what I have time to do. Just gotta find something you like and add some variety to your GW routine.

I do jq and jq and more jq (jade quarry) during the event. Outside event i do some solo farm and chestrunning, and then various missions and farms with my guild.
To OP: There are almost no pugs places left, only for speedclear fow/uw and VS with some special builds. I miss the old days where there were lots of places where you could join with random people and have fun. Ofc many of them sucked bad, but other times you had good times found new friends.

Pulled out my very old copy of Daggerfall since I found a WinXP exe for it and have been playing it again for the first time all over again. I am really amazed at how not pixelated it is with a modern day video card. Sounds good as the music in it was alway top notch. Naked females in the backrooms of bars and inns. Unlimited adventures, no real grinding, just unlimited quests and missions to take. Rescuing half naked females. lol Yeah this game was before ESRP stuff. Actual dungeons you can get lost in and pray you find your way out someday. 150,000 square miles of terrain to adventure around. Don't think anybody would ever actually reach those mountains you see in the back. Truely the best computer rpg ever made.

I work on getting new Legendary Survivor chars, slowly replacing my older chars with new LS ones. So, yes, I play alone a lot.

But I still like to relax and play my old already-died favorites, either just in desultory farming or helping PUGs with missions, since working on the LSs can be a little nerve-wracking.

I also stand around in the trade towns hoping to pick up various items I've always had a hankering to add to my collection, keeping an eye out for good bargains in the process. I like to give my heroes nice stuff to use. For example, I like to give my Margrids Rotwing's Recurves, if I can and my main char's Koss has a Tormented shield.

Alomst 4 years on now, I still play several hours every day. GW is my primary source of entertainment.
