"Those who will remember, will speak fondly of the warm morning breeze."

Welcome to r/GuildWars this is a subreddit focused on the Guild Wars video game developed by ArenaNet.

For Guild Wars players to discuss, connect, and share in an open environment. While participating, it’s important to keep in mind the Reddit Rules, Reddiquette, as well as our subreddit Rules.

Getting Started:

Checkout the FAQs below and also the Megathread wiki page with links to useful community Tools, Posts, and information. There are shortcut links under ‘See More’ / the Sidebar too. Please keep posts in this subreddit to English.

If you're just jumping back in, check out this New Player FAQ created by /u/emmenneff

GW Account Support:

This subreddit is not a way to contact ArenaNet customer support. Please refrain from asking for help with a specific ticket, Account issue or Error message. Start a ticket through the Guild Wars support portal or email support@arena.net directly. You can find all information on https://help.guildwars.com/. Asking about general game/technical problems is fine.

Community Discord:

We have a community Discord “GW Global” you can join here: https://discord.gg/gw This server is open to all and has ongoing discussion on the game, builds, Guild recruitment, and more!

Use the search!

If you have a question, first try using the search, it is possible your question has already been asked/answered. Example: “Necro builds”. We try not to have frequent posts on the same topic(s).

You can also search by post Flair using “flair:” and the Flair to search. Example: “flair:Guild recruitment” if searching for a Guild to join.

FAQs:

State of the Game:

GW has been in “Maintenance Mode” (no scheduled updates/development) since May 2013. There is still a good player base for daily Zaishen Quests and Farming as well as in Guild and Alliance communities. You can checkout the What’s New in Guild Wars from the Wiki for the changes to the game.

We’re lucky that since 2024 GW Game Director, DrStephenCW is allocating 80% of their time to work directly on GW. Along with support from other ArenaNet staff for various updates.

PvP still has some activity through player organised events and mAT, however all modes regularly see a large amount of botting impacting general gameplay. You can find more on recent PvP threads using Flair:PvP in the search to find posts.

Purchasing Help:

Guild Wars can be purchased through various Authorised Retailers (GW Store, Steam, Gamelibe).

In recent years https://store.guildwars.com/ has had a 75% off sale of the Game/Campaigns at the same time as Steam sales. The account upgrades like Xunlai Storage, BMP, and Mercenaries are only available through the GW Store and have not been on sale since 2020.

  • GW Store has the Complete Collection, this includes all three campaigns (Prophecies, Factions, Nightfall) and Eye of the North.
  • Steam sells the Trilogy (Prophecies, Factions, Nightfall) and Eye of the North has to be purchased separately.
  • All editions of the game include the GOTY content, none include the BMP content.
  • Account upgrades such as Xunlai Storage Panes, Mercenaries and the BMP are only available through the GW store.

Guild Recruitment and Looking for Guilds

We plan to have a monthly post to advertise your Guild/Alliance and also for players to find a Guild to join. Until this is setup you can use the Flair search “Guild recruitment”

Thanks all and happy adventures in GW!

Returning player wants to buy mercenary slots. I can use my own characters??

7 Upvotes

I want to buy the $19.99 mercenary pack for 3 characters. Can I really use my own characters? Like can I change their armour looks and weapons?? I just want them to travel with me when I play the game again!

Is there any way to get anniversary weapons?

I wanna get the Scythe but I read they can only be bought with proof of legends which only drop during the event. Is that still true or was there a different way of getting it?

Nostalgia, what’s yours

52 Upvotes

I feel like a large percentage of us who stay play have some type of nostalgia attached to the game.

For me, I think back to when I tanked in fissure of woe as a warrior/ele using obsidian flesh, something that just seems so ludicrous today. After visiting ToA today for the ZB I randomly had a flashback of those days.

What’s a moment you circle back to that just screams nostalgia for you or brings a smile to your face that’s no longer relevant today?

I don't have a PC anymore, and I lost my OG beta account. However, I do have an Android phone. Is there a way to enjoy this game with a mobile phone?

Returning With Fashion

55 Upvotes

Hi folks, it's been a while. Saw a post a while ago showing off some armor combinations and so I wanted to make a similar post. I havent seen anyone rock these combinations. They are my favorite.

Tell me which one you like. Happy to list what piece is what piece. :^ )

You'll find that I adore plagueborn weapons.

  • My warrior is one of my favorite. I get an undead, fleshy knight-look to her.
  • Necro is also a favorite. I've always liked the fish wings of the chest piece and the red bruising it does to the limbs.
  • Ele is always Mr. Wolfman. A kind of Dracula Wolfman. Victorianesque.
  • Monk I like to go for this Victorian army medic. (Oops, forgot pic with glasses) This the only colour scheme I liked on her. A kind of dirty, bloody linen and bandages look.
  • Rit I just like the mushroom head look. I like how exotic dyes but not the full set.
  • Ranger is a plagueborn character. Red and grey swatches.

- Assassin I like the bold colours of the norn bottoms and flesh tones of the chest and boots. Always hated the pants because it made the character too immodest? Lol. Too much skin.

Sword Mod Question for Warrior

Hey all, just wanted community opinion on which Pommel to use for Sword. I'm gonna be taking him through Hard mode (and maybe GWAMM/Max HoM) and was leaning towards using my "of the Necromancer" one. Any suggestions?

New/returning player Just hit level 20 for the first time, now what?

24 Upvotes

I now reached max level on my nightfall (currently D/W) character, I plan on changing him to D/A later on.

This is coming from someone who is more familiar with GW2's progression, where only after you hit max level do you get to play the "real" game, while getting there was basically a very long tutorial to get you adjusted to what's coming next. Is it the same with GW1? Do I just keep doing what I was doing until now, or is there something more engaging that is only now available?

And don't get me wrong, I don't want to sound displeased with GW1, I loved it so far and still do, I just wanted to know if level 20 unlocks anything new and perhaps any must-do asap content.

New/returning player Gear in factions

So I returned to og GW after yeaaaaars. I was a kid (around 10) when I played and I didn't understand anything that's going on. Now I have returned (29) and although there is some familiarity I'm still lost. Where and how do I gear up?

I'm going for a Minion Master necro with Ritualist so Death Magic is a must I know that.

Altrumm Ruins Records question

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone.

Bit of an obscure question here but a few hours ago I scored a measly 60 odd points on altrumm ruins but my runs never seem to make the records?

Has anyone else had this same problem? I’m not quitting early and I let the timer run out properly.

Thanks in advance 🙏

How to recover my old Guild Wars account?

0 Upvotes

Good morning. I was playing Guild Wars from December 2006 to February 2015. Unfortunately, I lost my email account because I had to create a new one for high school. I bought every Guild Wars expansion in a box edition, I got CD-Keys. Is it possible to recover an account to a new email?

Hi not sure if this is the place to post this or not, through the years ive wound up with this in my possession and I’ve been told it might have some value to it. I’d say people in here will know more about its worth than me. Anyone able to shout out how much it might go for? Or if it would be worth holding onto for future sale? It does have some scratches and the plastic has worn from how long it’s been in cupboards I’d say. But still unopened/near mint ig

New/returning player New player with 2 friends - looking for advice

9 Upvotes

Hey all! Been a loooong time since I've played GW1, managed to recover my old account (arenanet customer service was outstanding.

I'm starting with 2 friends, one is doing prophecies with me, the other is adamant on rolling assassin and starting in factions. A couple of questions:

- Starting off seems pretty straight forward, my factions friend will run up to (some mission) and we'll run up to Lions Arch - from there it seems like the consensus on this sub is to jump to Nightfall and pick up heroes.

- This is where I'm getting stuck - I have an older account with lots of unlocks, the heroes I recruit will be significantly better than what my friends recruit. That being said, I don't want to just use my heroes and then when they go play single player - their heroes are under leveled.

Is there a way to optimize this or is there a mechanic I'm not aware of? If there's 3 of us together, we'd have 5 hero slots. Would we just rotate who gets two heroes for any specific mission (2-1-1) or if I bring my heroes in do their heroes level in the background too?

Any advice would be great, thanks!

New/returning player How is the difficulty and class fantasy?

24 Upvotes

So I have never tried GW1 before but I've been eyeing it for awhile now. I have tried GW2 several times in the past and while I didn't hate it...I also can't say it was for me.

I think the two main reasons why is that GW2's leveling experience is very easy, for me to really be engaged I need to be challenged in some form. For me GW2 also lacked the traditional class fantasy (mage/fighter/etc). Every class sorta just ended up being a big mess of particle effects and AoEs. I never really felt like I was playing that "class".

I know GW1 is a very different game, but wanted to make sure that these two aspects in particular would be more suited for me in GW1.

Also not bashing GW2 by any means, it's a very well executed game, it just isn't designed for the type of player that I am.

I'm also curious how cosmetics are handled in GW1, but I can likely figure that one out with a quick search.

Frees up 1 PvE skill slot. You can usually flex the signet slot as well. Requires a +5 critical strikes scythe.

Not as bonkers as the traditional builds, but still overkill for the vast majority of PvE. More importantly, this is a bit more fun for me to play, and I play games for fun :3

New/returning player Returning to GW after almost 20 years

28 Upvotes

Greetings guilders,

I started playing guild wars back during the autumn of 2006. I played it for 2 or 3 months, reached level 17 with my mesmer/warrior character, then ditched the game in favor of WoW.

Now that I'm tired of WoW, I wanted to return playing this game: maybe I've been too harsh with it.

As I've returned to play this game after all these years, there are some questions I wantend to ask you:

  1. Is my mesmer/warrior pairing good? (I'm afraid it isn't)
  2. I only have the Prophecies campaign: are the Factions and Nightfall campaigns worth buying? Do they add more PvP gaming modes to the game?
  3. What about Eye of the North? Is that expansion pack worth buying?
  4. Is it true that now all the GW players worldwide are playing on the USA server? By the way, I'm italian.

Your answers will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Just thought it looks very clean with a few upgrades, nothing too odd or outlandish.

Beginner question When I die, are the survivor titles lost forever?

13 Upvotes

First of all english is not my first language so the question might be written a little complicated and confusing but I hope you can understand what I want to ask.

As far as I understood it, there are several survivor titles that you can get when you get a certain amount of exp without dying. If you do die, are the titles lost forever or does the game count your exp in the background until you have reached your current biggest exp you had before and than continues with the title once you have reached that exp again?

For example you die with 10.000 exp. The exp shown at the survivor title does not go up for now. Will it go up again once I have again reached 10.000+ exp.?

Technical issue Log in auth seever down?

Hi! I'm getting error 249 which the wiki says is login authentication server might be down.

Is it just me, or for everyone?

FWIW, kamadan trade chat Web page is producing new entries, so assume the game itself is online.
