Steam offers one of the cheapest prices and is the most convenient.

The Guild Wars trilogy is $29,99 - it gives you 3 standalone games. The only thing you're missing is Eye of the North but it's an expansion for end-game.

You can buy EOTN in the store, on steam, or through A.Net and add it to your account you created with the cd-key from steam.

I just started because I was so freaking hyped for Guild Wars 2 I thought it was worth it to get to know the lore more (I also read both books :wink: ). So I started a E/Me and I'm almost at Lion's Arch now, just finished The Frost Gate. Also found a great guild called Veritas Invictus [TRUE] that's been around since 2005.

I love how great this game looks even being from 2005 and so, and they got a lot of the game mechanics right. Well, a little too much instancing maybe.
As to everyone saying they don't like Prophecies, I can't understand them. Probably it's because i love lore and all of those great missions :)


You should post your IGN :(

You can actually buy Guild Wars: The Complete Collection for 34,99€ on Amazon, prob elsewhere, too.
I personally was so lucky to have a friend who had bought a second account a long time ago, since he had had trouble with his first one, so I just bought it from him for 15€ for all 4 campaigns 8) :D :D

This game is depressing me already.

All the things I need to do for my HoM either take up WAY TOO MUCH GOLD or WAY TOO MUCH TIME.

I got past my goal (23 for fellblade) but i'm so close to 30 I feel like I can't quit.

I completed Sorrow's Furnace when it came out, but for some reason I don't have the title. I'm not sure if it was because the title didn't exist then? I need to do all the quests, from the very first one, just to get the title and hatch my mini black moa.

Afterwards I need one more title and i'll be at 30.

I just don't have the drive :( I think it's because i'm playing alone.

Same man, got to like 18 and just stopped. I could reach 21 if I finish Prophecies with my Ranger (he just got to the final Shiverpeaks mission). :(

Maybe you can leech some points from the Mini-Pets achievement? I got an unded. Mini-Aaxte I can give you.

P.S: As for Sorrows Furnace, you guessed right.

Menz, don't get all worked up about that HoM thing. It's not all that important, the rewards will only be cosmetic... The most important part is to have fun! Join a guild! I'd recommend one of my alliance from GWonline.net. They're a pretty awesome bunch :)
Oh, and my IGN is Lysdea Tukagon, lv 13 so far :)

Now please don't rape me.

I'm pretty close to leaving my guild.

They're cool guys to talk to and they're helpful when you ask questions, but they don't do any group things together.

I think most of them are pretty much set. I need to play with people that are still doing HoM and story related things.

I was thinking of starting a guild just so I could pick a solid colour cape. But, I would join a GW guild.

I can't contribute any gold though; i'm broke.

I think I had a couple hundred gold... just finally finished recovering my account (had been hacked, then apparently my password was something I couldn't remember (or had been changed))

Sounds good to me. Doesn't have to be a cool name, it's just a guild for us to chill and work on HoM. Think I got 6k in my storage btw. Oh and please make a decent cape. :(

I don't think there are enough of us playing to make this truly viable, is probably best to just find a random pve happy guild to get this done.

Well I don't know about the rest, but I'm pretty much a solo player anyways, so just having a guild where SRF peeps could chat/do something etc is not really hindering me in any way and seems a little more fun on a social level then joining some sort of big PvE guild that you have to work your way into.

If there's any "big" pve guilds left in GW, it would probably have to have 70-90% of all the remaining active people on GW....

I joined some big guilds but it's difficult because they have cliques and everyone seems to be doing the really deep stuff in HoM - I couldn't get help with anything.
