I'm thinking of making a Dual sword warrior so I can utilize the Mad King's Britches better... I just need 6 Sigils of the Mad King to get all the effects.

Good luck with that. It's a lot of Halloween materials, and other expensive items.

I might just buy the sigils. xD It will mean saving up a buttload of money, though. The Britches do save money on an exotic armor set, though.

About how much are those sigils each?

I on the other hand, need to buy it. Everyone I know who has bought it has had the same problem, so I'm super excited for it.

It's suuuper charming and the pacing is a lot better than the past games

So I went on to Final Fantasy V after VI...

Honestly I had to drag myself through the door to finish VI. It just gets kind of meh with the World of Ruin, you know? V has always been something I have seen as a more modest entry. The job systems of I, III and V means I always have characters to work with that I enjoy. Kefka's Tower in VI is just painful, having to use characters I have scarcely touched since the Returners met up at Narshe. :/

So, I was doing more of my personal story on GW2, on my Ranger...



I wonder how many typos I've overlooked. XD Also, when that event starts next week, who'd be up to partying up (is is possible to visit servers yet?) and doing it together?

Guild Wars 2 AKA WoW Arena 2.0

Tab 123 Tab 123 Tab 123

I am so glad I did not pay for that game.

No, I know a lot of abilities are positional, but there is so much that I just found left the gameplay feeling less than engaging. :/

My biggest gripes of GW2:

1. The difficulty curve from going to PVE to dungeons. I mean, story mode should at least be doable at the level you get that mail opening the dungeon up to you. I like PUGs, but regardless of your skill, all dungeons are a crapshoot not really worth their time. : /

2. Trahearne. He's the least interesting hero I have ever seen--he makes Mhenlo and Kormir look interesting... Well, I did like Brother Mhenlo and Kormir. He was just introduced way too late in the storyline for me to actually care about him. That and I question his judgement:

"We have an Eye of Zhaitan that could potentially lead the dragon's minions to us. So, when we run this experiment, let's put both commanding officers of the Pact in the same area."

3. This is just a whiny thing I said, everytime I played GW1 and it applies to GW2. "This was such a simple task! How in the hell do you guys fuck it up?" I think all PCs are cursed, because whenever it's a task as simple as, "Talk to ___" you end up fighting a horde of enemies.

It's a great game and I will give it credit where credit is due. I have a firm belief that this is the era of variety, where there are great games for everyone.

I played Global Agenda for a bit. I never liked shooters, but it felt good to have an MMORPG with solid, organic control. No gear ladder, skill-based play, great PvE and PvP options. Fun. Story was a joke, though.

It spoiled me well until I played TERA. TERA has probably the best gameplay I have experienced in an MMORPG, but to put it in simple terms it is a Korean game. Lots of sex, cash shop, grind, etc. Compared to other Korean games the story is good, but in the grand scale of things it is alright. :/

It is only natural that Guild Wars 2 would fail to appeal to me coming from TERA. Felt too sluggish and babied.
