How did you save up for FoW? Didn't you ever though of all the Elite sets you could of gotten while you where saving up? Thats the main reason I never got FoW. I always start saving up but as soon as I have enough for a Elite set, I end up buying one. (elite set)

xD

Took me about 6 months of grinding UW and FoW. Its the only one I did it on, personally I think the necro obby is hideous. I like the asuran much more.

I got a ferry to docks right away to get max AR on my derv early on so that held me over, plus I had all the bling to look at on my necro if I wanted to.

Yeah I got Asuran on my Necro :D Know anyways to make him fun? I honestly feel like he was a waste of money. Only shit I can run on him is Life Transfer, SS , and a couple obsolete MM and Curses build.

I ran a SS build for a loooong time. But this N/W 100b build is by far the most fun I have ever had with a necro. Insaaaaane AoE dmg.

Its not just the cash you need xD You need 120 ecto + 120 shards + mats + 75k. Getting the cash is the easy part.

I might get some more prestige I dunno, good to have a couple sets for different stuff.

There is just so much to do PvE I never stopped. I do want to get into HA though, but I haaaaaate cookie cutter builds, and hate PUGs even more.

I was also thinking about playing gw since I bought nightfall and factions back in the day but never finished it...

But it's kinda complicated with so many skill combos and all that, and the game is so empty...

Okay okay I actually think I'm the right man to talk to about War v.s Sin. Here's my tale.

I've had my Assassin for 4 years, needless to say he's my main(think there's 15 skills left to unlock, mostly elites). Some people will tell you to just make a PvP sin but I think thats wrong. "Todays" sin builds can easly rape PvE + PvE armor sets are the shit :love: They are very fun and versatile. PvP-wise, you probably already know but they destroy in a matter of seconds. You can focus on fast DPS, Condition spead (deadly arts) or shadow step builds, all of them are really fun.

My last character was a Warrior. I'll be honest, they really are more than I though. They are actually plenty fun. Obviously, they have no trouble PvE wise. Just like sins, they are pretty versatile( weapon choice). Now maybe that's just me, but Warriors are more of a character you want to "main". They can get pretty expansive gear wise as you need a Helm for all the weapon mastery + it's so easy to become addicted to merchanting (all those oh-so-sexy weapons and shields).

TL;DR : I'd go for Assassin. Both are extremely fun and my favourites class. Warrior will be a bit more expansive, which is really my only reason I woudn't vote him. Also, as I've stated before, Warrior are more of a "main" char.

Okay think Ima start playing GW again. My score is really really sad for 4 years of GW :( At least I got the full Heritage set and a few weapons.

I've been doing some "calculations" for the past hours :P There's a couple "Kill Two Birds with One Stone" things I could pull. I'd maybe save up for a a Tormented/Opressor/Destroy Weapon because you only need one.

Buying any unded minis you guys got for under 20k or so, need about 5 of them for the 20 mark. Working on the 30 points + rainbow pet atm, unsure of what to grab for my last 3 max titles ( 2 down ) as far as HoM goes I got 15 points atm and elite armor is done, so need to wrap up the rest although there is a bit of high demand on all these achivements atm so o.O ( couldnt find diamonds at the trader, need to keep a sharp eye on that ).

I want to kill myself. I had a BUNCH of Mini-Pets from all my characters anniverseries and I would always give them away because I saw no point for them to be sold under 5k :(

I need one more Elite set for the 7 Elite Set Mark, but I'll make sure for it to be Kurz/Luxon so I also get credit for that.(Too think I almost had Full Luxon 15k on my Sin before salvaging like a dumbass).

@Love: I havn't played for a while and can't bring myself to browse Auction. What would be the cheapest to get? Opressor,Destroyer or Tormented?

P.S: Don't know if you alreaded mentionned your IGN in this thread. But add me ( Kai Wolfstorm), I hate my heroes and I gotta run some Nightfall Challenge missions for Heroes armor.

Destroyer would be the cheapest for sure, tormented stuff goes for like 200k but I can't really comment on oppressor as I have yet to see one be sold, I intend to get my own for that reason questioning whether to do the same with tormented.

My ign is Skill Ed Play.

Thanks. As for the guild, I'm cool. If you had any idea how many times I joined the "Cavalon/HzH Guilds" back in 08 in my "AB IS MY LIFE" period :P Now I just stick around my inactive friends guild. Whats kinda sad is that they are Kurzick, and I've been Luxon my whole life. So whenever I want to AB, I spam a request for Guest to a Luxon guild in GotB :P

Also ran myself to Sanctum Cay :D That means I'll be able to defeat Lich in the next few days and get points for defeating Tyria. :)

made 500k today, zaishen mission ftw.

Btw I found out how to complete proph in under 3 hours, stupidly easy. All the horror stories disappoint me, completed every single mission in the last zone on my first attempt on a speedy fashion.
