Hard & fast. ;)

Guild Wars 2 end-game starts at level 1. I can go back and do any content I want and it still be relevant. I really want my character to have the benefits from all of the traits and utilities, so I plan on leveling fast.

Regarding nnicc's comment "I guess this game is made to play slowly or you'll get bored quickly." I completely disagree.. I've played Guild Wars 1 for around 85 months and I've only recently become bored of it because of Guild Wars 2 and that game has a level cap of 20. They wanted you to not focus on leveling to experience content and Guild Wars 2 is the same in most cases.. the only difference is that lower level players can't experience higher level content. Level 80's don't have to worry about that. You don't have to level slow to have fun.

This may be a good time to point out that there are no level requirements at all -- you don't even have to finish the initial tutorial, if you don't mind playing an Ensign! The whole event is intended as a sort of tutorial that will explore different aspects of roleplay, so it's a good introduction for beginners, too.

And "blueshirt" is just my own play on "redshirt"... I'm referring to medical or science officers, as their uniforms are blue. :)

Voila my Necrominion build

If I don't see this does it for me I will go Soul Reaper mode.

I got car sick watching this video lol

Here's GW2 at 5400x1920. Though I've got to admit, that's almost silly.

I love how you said almost silly.

omg, that's hilarious! I wouldn't be completely opposed to a de-necromancer server, as they kinda squick me. ;)
Just think if this game had smell-o-vision....

Hey! Do not de-necromance me :)

i'll just wait a couple years for 4k monitors

I also hadn't noticed .. I'm going to have to send you all mail just to confirm! :D

at the very least "WE" will have a lot of fun getting to know each other, grouping up, taking on exciting things in the game and just overall.....playing the game very stress-free.

Speaking as a very new member, I'd really like to play with this attitude. GW2 rewards adventuring which is something that is always better with people you enjoy playing with. I'd like to get to know everyone and then, no matter if we are #1 in WvWvW or last place, working together to take a tower or defend a town in PvE. I know that I'll be very active in the community for whatever sever is chosen and I will choose whatever server the leadership picks.

OMG that's great!

I hadn't even noticed... :(

Check out this guy's YouTube channel, it's magnificent. He's doing a countdown where he discusses lore/news/anything gw2. Also, his jumping puzzle series is really truly entertaining.

: \ I feel ya, pray for another stress test maybe! :D less than two weeks! woohoo.

WoodenPotatoes talked about this today in his Great Guild Wars 2 Countdown... i was impressed! I hadn't even noticed.

I just didn't know he delivered AND picked up!

How did the game seem lag style? Was their much rubberbanding? Or was it at a point where you think that they are done stress testing..?

I hopped on with my laptop for the first 30 minutes.. had to set the graphics down to "vga" (circa 1990's for you young folks) to even be able to chat in guild chat. I showed my 3 nephews and they all said "what do you mean there's no monthly fee??".. noobs

Well guild chat was dead..was fun regardless. :)

I'm afraid we all wanted to get the most out of that one hour.

Here's a pretty funny post from Guru on mega-alliance dominating servers. Generally encapsulates my feelings on the matter.

Overall, these threads of statements made by these intelligent people are great and as a general rule I very much agree with the mood and spirit of their conversation.

Then there is the added complication of Server-Transfers due to Over-Population or Balance Issues. As seen and experienced in other games...sometimes things can change on a server very drastically (when the two fore mentioned occur) Ie: incentives such as weapons and gear upgrades or other such bait to get XXXXXX amount of people to go to another server.

At the risk of sounding condescending (because if you knew my heart and soul, you would immediately know this is not the case at all) but rather that I am very respectful and grateful to be able to speak freely.

After (ALL) that I have read on the subject of selecting "just the right" server for us....it becomes very evident that it's "STILL" going to be a very long time with many changes before we see if the decision was made well ... or not so well.

My humble advice: When in doubt roll the dice / flip a coin whatever to make it easy or easier than it has been anyway to choose a server....we are loyal and have faced many challenges in our life's to get here....and make no mistake..."We Are Here" in force, we will all do what needs to be done when the time comes.

IF: we select a server and the end result is low ....so be it. We can either get together and see if there is a way to attract what we need to come to our server or and at the very least "WE" will have a lot of fun getting to know each other, grouping up, taking on exciting things in the game and just overall.....playing the game very stress-free.

There are many fine people "here" and a lot of them....I am not going to shed a tear if all we end up ruling a server and it's pretty much just us.

To the people who are making the decision ultimately - as far as our server is concerned.

Breath /relax and smile and know when the button is pushed.....we are going to be just fine.

Best day to all :cheer:

Well guild chat was dead..was fun regardless. :)
