Here is where I talk about what I'm doing in Guild Wars and my opinion(s) of the game.

Okay, so I'm kneedeep into Nightfall. I just hit level 16 and I've had the Sunspear Commander title for awhile now. I choose to play a Dervish/Ranger. I've been poking at Factions with my original character, Jack Valmont, but I can't really get into yet. I'm just not feeling the same vibe, you know? I want to have my heroes, I want those quests that really mean something, and all I'm getting is this stupid "You must kill X many monsters or my crops won't grow!" It just makes me sick.

But back to Nightfall. I'm at the bog now. For almost a half-hour I attempted to bring a 4-man team into and kept dying. And I couldn't figure out why! Then I realized I needed 8-man and then it was all gravy from there. I managed to get everything explored and so on and so forth. It was great.

Let's be honest. Nightfall is completely more engaging than Factions. I just activated Factions and the intro almost let me fall off my chair...asleep. I've been playing my Dervish non-stop in Nightfall, which really doesn't mean anything. I managed to get all the Wintersday 2006 hats, which is awesome. I made it to three different final events, and managed to nab all four in an almost fowl swoop.

And I just lost the Survivor title on my Dervish today. A shame. Well, now the pressure is off. I'm still exploring (read: scraping) the areas slowly and getting all the promotion points I can get (you gotta love taking it easy). I'm about to get my second hero. It was a nice surprise to see that all my Prophecies elites were avaliable to Koss (or perhaps just the Core elites? I don't know).

For those of you who don't know, I have somewhere around 65 elite skills unlocked on my Ranger. Check that out here.
