Are you a treasure hunter or a farmer?
Narutoscryed
Im bored so i decided to make this thread to bore all you aswell...In this game i belive that people that have played through a few times have the option to call themselves one of two things. they are either a farmer, or a treasure hunter, I consider myself a treasure hunter. because everyday i come on these forums. look for rumors or hotspots. then go and find them. i also do a lotta searchin for stuff on my own... and well pretty much i just wanted to know what everyone else considers themselves to be .

Neither one or the other, really... I'm kind of a Farming treasure hunter...

I'm still looking for that Superior Absorption, who isn't? 
I'm still working some characters through but I also do some farming on the side. So, I guess I'm a farmer.

I'm just farming...getting money to upgrade my shield collection.
And if I *actually* find any good item, that I don't want it ---> GWGuru Auction here we go!
Today I did 5 runs to the Ruins of HoH with as MM with a barrage group.
Only thing I got was the Bulwark *does naked chicken happy dance*

I let others look for useful stuff, I farm seaboard to obtain cha-ching and accumulate happiness points! Karkarkarkar!

I farm for treasures. Got a couple superior absorbtions, and enough superior vigors for all my characters with some extras to sell, plus major vigors and other superiors.

I don't power-farm but I kill easy stuff quickly enough. Chest hunting gets dull after your fourth group in a row doesn't get out of Rastigan's range.

I'm definitely a treasure hunter, FoW chest runs are all I do anymore

Guess you could call me a 'material farmer'. Its nice when you get something nice drop but I cant remember the last time I actually sold something. More times than not I give stuff away to guildies that need it. But farming for materials allows me to get the things I need ie sup runes, armor etc. I have only 1 treasure and that is the healing ankh that my doppleganger dropped when I ascended my monk. I keep it as a trophy cuz my warrior and my ranger ascended sooo easy. I was shocked when I had to try a 2nd time on my monk to beat my doppleganger. Plus he only dropped for my monk.

i play video games to kill things, why not make a profit in the process?
Harmony
Well, I've finished the game with 3 characters, fixing to finish with my 4th and still have chars I'm working up, so definitely a quester. But....I also do ettin runs, and UW/FOW/Sorrows for the treasure. So guess that makes me a treasure hunting quester with a penchant for farming..or a really pitiful person with no life; take your pick

I'm a treasure hunter because Guild wars doesn't have corn, barley, and oats, nor Cows you can milk.

I used to be a treasure hunter - I'd spend my gold acquired from selling items on keys and open chests. I just love opening chests and see what I wind up getting.
Then after a while I realized my processings from selling my findings wasn't enough to maintain my key purchases I became a material farmer - salvaging everything and selling those to players or material traders.

I do both......out of bordem. Then, I'll get bored of it too after a few minutes. The reason I do this is because the guild is inactive most of the time, but becomes heavily active on the weekends. Although, I go out on Saturdays @_@ Another reason, I used to be guildless before I joined and did everything on my own, with PuGs, and the henches. Hard to breakaway from my old freelancing days.
Another thing, how come some people hate the farmers? O_o

Treasure Hunter for me... farming gets very old very quick. I get my money from doing the missions and opening chests and going to very out of the way places (i.e. yesterday took a trip down to where theres millions and squillions of Verata's Apprentices just to take screenshots) and helping with quests.

Well, if you're speaking from a monetary standpoint ... i'm neither. I'm a merchant to make money. My bank and character space are always revolving with crafting materials and easily-sellable items, etc.
I have no luck with farming, or chests ... it's only when i'm not looking for a great drop that I get one. Call me crazy, but I believe in "Game karma" ... I help out wherever and whenever I can, and I seem to get some good drops along the way. You could call me the hunter that never hunts

First 3 months i played this game i was a PURE farmer. Stopped for 2 months to work on characters. Now i am a pure Treasure Hunter. Trying to find Superior Vigor and a Superior Absorbtion, and there is nearly ZERO profit in Ettin farming while in search for these runes. Seriously, crappy rare items, all none max, and all the superior runes i DO find are like 300g at the trader... BLEH!
oh, i guess i do farm the materials!! =P Enjoy!

I'm a farmer.. Treasure hunting doesn't always suceed but atleast when you farm theres an average amount of profit.

I have on char that is kind of a utility guy that does most farming for me as he can solo in some moderately profitable areas. He is called up when needed for a quest or mission with a guildie.
Two characters are shelved but called up when needed by the guild when a monk or ele is needed.
I am still bringing along a couple of more charachters that do a combo of farming and skill capping.
Skill capping is a form of farming anyway as I find myself lugging back a bunch of stuff whenever I skill cap anyway.
