Yeah even if they do help people change their region, don't abuse it just because EU is cheaper

So anyone of you guys went to the final event for the beta?

I only manage to try the classes I am interested in except thief, didn't have time for that. Didn't manage to try crafting and other stuff.

I find thief pretty interesting but hard to use for me.

probably like assassin in GW Faction, quite hard to master lol

I might need to get something like a GTX670 if the graphics aren't quite optimized yet lol
*
I am using GTX260 only, a few times frame drop, but most of the time it ran fine

Anyone went to Ascalon Settlement area, it's a level 20+ area, I stumble into it while level below 15 lol. Didn't explore the area though, probably going to die very fast if I try.

Still going to start as Human warrior, after that it's either Sylvari Ele, Norn Ranger, Charr Guardian or Human Engineer. Ranger barrage is so nice, reminds me of Guild Wars.

I also dunno all those tongue.gif
Your settings maxed out at 1080p? Usually what fps you're getting. Mine's usually 35-40fps and sometimes 50fps+ in certain areas. Can dip down to about 15fps during PVP
What's your settings? Resolution?GTX260 is quite an old card liao
*
I didn't check the fps, just my own feeling when playing whether it smooth or not smooth. Running on 1920x1200. I didn't try pvp though, but I did participate in dynamic events with lots of player and spells and stuff being cast. Sorry can't really remember my setting since I just custom it, and can't check now since BWE ended.

Rather than going specifically for the hearts, I just explore randomly and join any event I see. Like protecting a place from Centaur, then there was a kill the champion troll which I did twice, killing a queen wasp. At times I just go find places I can get skill points or find vista, while doing that will randomly stumble into event.

Didn't get to try sword with my Ranger, was using axe then later change to longbow. Gotta love barrage, just like in GW.

Thing is, I was already having a hardtime choosing between the two bows (Both are quite single-target, was using Axes for Multi-Target purposes)

Then I got a sword, and later, craft me a dagger and a greatsword. Greatsword is so-so, but sword/dagger was pretty nice gameplay!
*
Interesting, will check out the skills for sword/danger, now if only they have scimitar, then it's like Drizzt Do'Urden lol.
I prefer longbow for the range, but the only multi target skill is barrage though.

I use the mouse to individually pick out targets instead of the tab function so sometimes my mouse cursor kinda got lost and I take time to find it especially when the screen is full of mobs during a DE. Oh my! Am I doing this wrong?
*
When lots of things are happening, yeah you'll definitely lose track of your mouse, hence I don't rely on it. I bind target to one of my mouse button, it faster and beats trying to find my cursor lol

I am still trying to get use to no auto walk to your target that is in GW, for melee need to walk close to your target and attack.

And Arena net will reply to you the same thing, you need to get NA copy. Maybe they will implement the region lock when the game is release. Since it was Arena net themself that mention there is region lock, so yeah just choose wisely if you want to take the risk.

The uncertainty is killing me, there's no solid proof of everything we're talking about here. They just says that we have to use NA version but then there's one guy here claims that he was able to login using EU copy from Malaysia.
*
The solid proof is in GW2 official FAQs, yes people has mention they can login using EU account from Msia, but we do not know if it's because Arena net haven't implement the region lock for the beta.

Ranged Multi-Target, AFAIK, is only Axe atm. Auto-Attack (1) is a ricochet between 3 enemies, (2) is an AoE Bleed, (3) is a single target chill, (4) is a straight line, (5) is your projectile defense block.

Sword MH to be honest, that made it so much fun. Great animation for (1), (2) is a leap back, followed by another leap back into the enemy, and cripple. (3) is move behind your enemy and poison them. Pity we couldn't dual-wield sword though!

I think I'm gonna stick with shortbow... needs more manuvering, but if you can stack bleed on them, it's nice thing to have.

Btw, where do you find other type of pets huh? Guildie says you need to find the ones tagged "juvenile", but didn't find them as I go. Stick with cat and inflict vulnerability aahahaha.
*
Definitely need to try out sword ranger when it's release, the poison from dagger seems nice.

I found a juvenile leopard at the leopard spirit area, that's the only one I saw that can be tame. Probably different area will have other pets for you to tame. It's nice that you can switch pet on the fly.

Tempted but experience in the beta isnt as good as other playthrough i had seen on youtube.

Could be because there were server issue when i was spending majority of my time playing. Most of the time, i only see hearts quest on the map. Dynamic events arent triggered for some reason. If not, i spend most of the time forever alone in the overflow server.

I have only played a limited amount of period which is kinda inconclusive. Managed to get to level 15 in less than 10 hours. Very hard to judge a open world game in leas than 10 hours of gameplay.

Really like the combat though.
*
Maybe you just wait for the game to be release and when review it out before decides to get it. I was playing in a more populated server, so there was plenty of people around even when I am in overflow, and I manage to get into a few dynamic events through out the beta. Other time I was just doing my story quest or helping my friend with his story quests. Very enjoyable for me.
