Guild Wars


 * ''This page is about the game of Guild Wars. For other possible uses or meanings, see Guild Wars (disambiguation).



The game Guild Wars is what this Wiki is all about, so if you're reading this, chances are you already have got a rough idea about the game:

Guild Wars is an MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) developed by ArenaNet, a software company fully owned by Korean gaming company NCSoft.

Guild Wars is different from most other MMORPGs, though, in that the aspect of grinding common to MMORPGs is absent in this game. As a result, Guild Wars is sometimes classified as a CORPG. You just go through quests and missions to find the items, runes and skills you need.

Furthermore, unlike other MMORPGs, Guild Wars does not charge a monthly fee for playing the game. Instead, ArenaNet supports their online service through the release of new chapters and expansions.

Now Guild Wars is often Clashed With WoW and Everquest For the Multiplayer Online Game Crown.

What makes this game competitive is the Player vs Player and Guild vs Guild battles, and an international tournament called Heroes' Ascent. Heroes' Ascent is where five territories (America, Korea, Europe, Japan, and Taiwan/Macao/Hong Kong) fight each other to win the Favor of the Gods in the Hall of Heroes. Success in these PvP battles depends very heavily on your choice of skills and the tactics you execute.

Campaigns
By now, there are three different campaigns available: An expansion to those campaigns, Guild Wars Eye of the North, has been in development since the summer of 2006.
