Why Play GW?
It would be similar to building a deck in Magic: The Gathering: The more cards you own, the greater the number of different playing decks you can choose to play. When you buy the chapters of Guild Wars, you will acquire a larger collection of skills and abilities from which to build your skill set, but you will not gain more power. - Guild Wars FAQ
 * Joined because of gameplay similar to Magic: the Gathering (no overpowered things, regular balancing) and no monthly fee, in full 3D
 * Staunch supporter of skill balancing and skill-based play
 * Questing PvEr/GvGer
 * After scouring previous and coming MMO's, I can conclude GW has the best balanced skill system besides MtG online, which is a CCG not 3D and doesn't have missions/quests
 * Eliminates grind of leveling skills and attributes
 * Decent level cap attainment, unlike some other games with lvl 60, 100+ level caps that take forever
 * Mission/Quest based Goal versus level goals
 * full 3D, not 3D on isometric background

Game Info

 * Played Guild Wars in E3 for Everyone & World Preview Event in 2004
 * "Life Infusion" was a character CARRIED OVER from these 2 events. It was a E/Mo.


 * Prophecies Standard Edition (It's okay, I got everything from CE from someone that quit to play Oblivion: art book, manuals, authentic soundtrack... only missing the Divine Aura, box, and headset)
 * Missed preorder :(


 * Factions Collector's Edition (map poster is useful, soundtrack + bonus music key is good, art book is nice, I'm using the mouse pad at the moment, only thing bad about it was the Ritualist themed box because I wanted an assassin box, calendar/stickers aren't too useful)
 * Preorder
 * Didn't get a T-shirt thoguh I got CE...I'm guessing the sales people hid them or something...


 * Preordering Nightfall Collector's Edition (for the behind-the-scenes DVD, art book, music CD, map poster, skill pins aren't too useful)
 * Prerelease Bonus Pack

Somewhat Offtopic
<blockquote style="border-left:solid #000000 5px; padding-left:1em; margin-left:1.5em; margin-top:0.5ex; margin-bottom:0.5ex">When you look at Guild Wars ...it isn't simply a game that's about beating each other over the head with damage and whoever wins the race is the winner. Instead it's a game about controlling the state of the battle, of finding or creating situations where certain types of damage will rock your opponent, while stopping your opponent from doing the same. It's about disrupting your opponent's strategy, by proactively screwing up his offense and setting up defenses that he isn't prepared to deal with. It's about shutting down your opponent's ability to do the same to you. - Charles Ensign

<blockquote style="border-left:solid #000000 5px; padding-left:1em; margin-left:1.5em; margin-top:0.5ex; margin-bottom:0.5ex">The status of the character should reflect the status of the player behind it. <blockquote style="border-left:solid #000000 5px; padding-left:1em; margin-left:1.5em; margin-top:0.5ex; margin-bottom:0.5ex">A high-level character isn't just a high-level character: it's a marker of player status. If it's worn by someone not entitled to wear it, that very seriously annoys those who are entitled to wear it. It says something about a player's achievements: it's non-transferrable.

Oddball Builds, thought of on a whim
They may not be necessarily effective, they just are thoughts of how to synergize certain skills without being cookie-cutter, or as the dictionary puts it, "marked by lack of originality or distinction". Embrace the inner Johnny in you! <blockquote style="border-left:solid #000000 5px; padding-left:1em; margin-left:1.5em; margin-top:0.5ex; margin-bottom:0.5ex">Johnny likes a challenge. Johnny enjoys winning with cards that no one else wants to use. '''He likes making decks that win in innovative ways. What sets Johnny apart from the other profiles is that Johnny enjoys deckbuilding as much as (or more than) he enjoys playing. Johnny loves the cool interactions of the cards. He loves combo decks. Johnny is happiest when he’s exploring uncharted territory.''' ...R&D designs some cards for Johnny. Johnny cards are cards that have unique effects that Johnny can build cool decks around. In general, Johnny cards are the kind of cards with real potential. (Some of them will eventually excite Spike.) Good examples of Johnny cards are Holistic Wisdom, Radiate, and Battle of Wits. - Magic the Gathering R& D team
