OMG. lol like they would have a chance outside. lol Oh well... more power too em... Nice to know here are as many cheater in here as in other games. I know for a fact these worthless people do nothing more then go back and play the <10 ascalon arenas and make out like they are the best thing that ever existed... they are not.. its the same as playing football in a Sherman Tank. Your gonna get a touchdown every time. Maybe someday Arenanet themselves will see it and make a patch to disable > lev10 armor in the <10 arenas. as to PvE who cares... I only frown on it when its used to cheat in PvP... thats just wrong... cause it effects others around them... In PvE so waht., they get a little further on their own sooner. great. Like I said more power to em. not like they have a chance to be any good there anyway. cause who in their right mind will invite a level 5 in the area on a mission or jont in the woods for that matter...

I rushed my character to Ice Caves at level 5 in presearing armor on another account, I didn't go back to the Ascalon Arena's. (I don't even play in them..) AND I did Ice Caves of Sorrow at level 5 in presearing armor with just henchman, no other humans (or my other account), so you're mean.

hey I resent that the only post seer missions I did were the ring of fire and the 1 mission leading to ring of fire. I got no xp for kills (would charge off and die on purpose so as to not get any) I was infused but I never finished that mission. It was funny to fight jades at lvl 1 before the enchant striping started full swing as I could tank em. I wouldn't go grief but in 4v4 team I would go and sit in the middle of the map with so many protecions on me it wasn't even funny. The other team spent more time saying WTF Hacker than anything else.

that would be the most annoying thing ever, I'm not going to sit in Ascalon area or something until I'm level 10. (when I can get there doing the missions with henchmen at level 6-7, depending on the level I leave presearing)

I got run from copper to droks ONLY to save money buying armor, since I am poor. Besides, when I did it, I was at Divinity Coast and level 17. twinking is wrong!

bein there at level 5 is okay. getting rushed is okay.

but level 5 at ice caves is not "cool" in my opinion.

beating your mirror at lvl 5 is cool in my opinion.

Finishing the Ice Caves of Sorrow at level 5 with 7 level 20 henchman really isn't a feat, since A) the henchman are properly levelled and b) Ice Caves of Sorrow is one of the shortest and easiest missions in Guild Wars.

that wasn't my point, I was just saying that not everyone tries to 'bum' rides off higher leveled players. I know it's one of the easiest missions.

i was rushed to draknors for one reason, i was tired of upgrading my armor from my 3 other accounts i killed myself over. the 4th was not a big deal for me as I am now going back and doing the entire game just with top armor. I have the money, I have the materials so it was gonna be used anywho, if it is your first character...shame shame you know your name, i actually feel bad if it was ur first as you miss out on the thrill of working toward a goal, i was so excited at lvl 19 battling for 20 and then ascending and then got to draknors!

yeah I had my character rushed level 6 to marhans for 15k armour. I'm not saying that this is cool but I dont think people who do this are called cheaters.

Now i do this so that I can powerlevel solo without henchman at the newb areas once i get my armour. I think it is not cheating but trying to find the most bang out of the game.
For most people who do this, they are trying to enhance the longetivity or replay factor of the game by trying to find new and unique ways to do things. This is harmless in my opinion as they are not affecting anyone. Plus most likely all of the missions they will be doing by themselves at high level areas, or with guildies.

The problem does come in when they start abusing this to fight at low level arenas in which my opinion is dumb.

Guild wars is unique because of your ability to out think the opponent. There is a counter for each and every pro and their skills, you just gotta make sure you bring the right ones.
Thats what makes a win so satisfying, is by winning fairly and knowing you are better then them.
By using uber armor for a more than slight advantage may be satisfying short run, but you dont get the respect from a fair win.

I sympathize for most who do this running as longetivity as it can be excruciatingly boring to do all the quests especially when you're trying to ascend your 4th character. I know it was the same for me on my 3rd character, so on my 4th i decided to try this.

In my opinion i see running not as cheating but a nice little challenge. For people who charge for these runs, good for ya. Its just another way to play the game. Thats what's so great about mmorpg's like GW. Its flexible gameplay. Take that away and I'm not sure it will be so good.

however all you leet armor level 3's who do play Arena games suck major

lowest XP you can possibly have is 54,000 xp which would put you at level 11 1k away from 12
4k xp from the 3 desert mission and Sanctum cay
50k from ascension
unless theres soem way to get to dragon's lair from Droknors

I'm ok with people getting armor and such early. I just saw a guys post the other day though that he was level 8 I think and won 52 consecutive Ascalon arena matches. The people were wailing on him with everything they had and NOTHING as far as damage happeneing... They just sat back and let them wail away and in effect CHEAT in ascalon arena. as far as PvE. Like I said. Who cares one way or another. If you can get there early and help your self out and save some gold. great. just dont go back and faction farm by cheating in ascalon and yaks bend arenas...
