Q: Hello, I have just registered. Where should I start?
A: You should start by reading the rules and regulations of the forum here. You may then post about yourself in the Introduction Thread here. Please do not create a personal "Hello" thread. Remember that as the title says, Guild Wars Guru is about Guild Wars. Write in clear english, please. If you are unsure, use Spell-Check. Avoid internet-speak and things like "u", "bcuz" "plz" and other silliness such as l33tsp33k. Avoid posting in a hurry: better not to post at all than post an unreadable block of text. If you want to write anything in another language, please provide a short translation in english. Also do not register only to beg for an access key, to troll or to spam the forums. No "Yay first post!" threads.
Q: What are the controls for Guild Wars?

If you're in a mission and your entire party dies the mission is over and you have to restart it. Your party is respawned in the outpost, however any xp or loot you had aquired is still in your posession. If you die in a mission, explorable area, pvp match and someone is able to rez you, you are rezzed with a death penalty (dp). The death penalty is 15% and I believe can go as high as 60% upon subsequent deaths. This death penalty lowers your overall health and energy making you less powerful. You can work the dp off by killing enemies. Keep in mind that the death penalty is only for that mission, so if you exit the mission and restart you start with no death penalty. |
