How did Guild Wars treat you today? Daily Game Discussion

cosyfiep · May 20, 2016 at 4:59 PM Official Post

Figured it was time to get this one up and running again...if need be someone will merge it with the old one (wont be me though)

so let us know what good (or really bad) things happened for you today while playing!

November 2025 thread update:

edit: by bsoltan - I'm hijacking this first post to make it clear that this thread is related to the Xunlai Market area and for ITEMs / Goods found/dropped/traded in-game and not for General 'this is a cool thing that is happening'.

~~This has long been the content of this thread but occasionally it got sidetracked by other content/posts which should really belong in a separate thread/their own thread.~~

~~Any-content Daily Discussion Thread now exists in General forum here:~~ ~~Daily Discussion and what you have going on in-game~~

~~Please create posts in more appropriate forum sections as needed.~~

January 2026 thread update:

Following democratic vote, scope of the thread has been reverted. The previous split thread has been re-merged, and the thread moved to General and out of Xunlai.

Discuss any Guild Wars topic within our rules. Items/Drops/Titles/Game Updates/etc. Please do consider there may be another thread on the same discussion.

I hope people weren't too inconvenienced.

Thanks.

Happy to see this thread back! Got this absolute gem today whilst chesting in Pongmei. Happy is an understatement

Crikey! That's one of the best chest run drops in a long time. Congrats!

so last week i decided to go for the treasure hunter title (need 7.5k chests) , and after almost 2 stacks of lockpicks i finally got my first cool drop

i know it's not perfect, but hopefully i can make some money back with it

wind fire and ice · July 14, 2016 at 12:32 AM

Cool drop Chill. GL on the treasure hunter. Most fun title in GW!

Ah man. Ain't that a kick in the teeth. Any r8/16 echovald should get your heart racing..... but then so far off max on the mods it hurts.

Talk to Emma. She might want it though

Emma · December 9, 2016 at 7:52 PM Official Post

cosyfiep · December 18, 2016 at 11:24 AM Official Post

Pleikki · March 27, 2017 at 8:34 AM

you were suppose to get me like 5 perfs from that batch..

Reignoffiretwo · April 12, 2017 at 5:36 PM

Not sure if this goes in here or not but I'll post because it was a fun day.

Yesterday the Zaishen Mission was Nahpui Quarter. I figured I would run it for fun and I needed Hard mode anyways. I got a friend from guild to go and we put together a team of 8 real humans in less than 10 minutes and completed the mission in roughly 17 mins. Well we all decided to reroll and play the mission again and again and a 4th time. Our fastest time was like 8 minutes. It was by far the most fun I have had in GW for a long time. I miss the old days of full human parties doing HM elite mission and dungeons, seems to be so rare these days. anyways GW treated me really well yesterday, just thought I would share.

cosyfiep · April 12, 2017 at 9:30 PM Official Post

its good to see folks still enjoying this great game--and yes Reign, even though your post was not a drop--guildwars did TREAT you today

In my news for today...it was rams hammer day.../sigh

JulioGuru · April 14, 2017 at 2:14 PM

Hey,
after some days without drop, i dropped this nice one : )

Emma · April 22, 2017 at 9:14 PM Official Post

You could say that GW didnt treat me today, but I did. My faction collector edition came in today. Scored some Aion wings and will receive my nightfall collector edition next week.

Emma · April 25, 2017 at 1:59 AM Official Post

Today was yet another good day:

10 max titles in pre

Enchanted Krystal · June 17, 2017 at 11:03 PM

After much looking/spamming, I finally got my 18% Vs Charr presearing bow mod!! I logged in to find a bloke selling one in Ascalon & we made a trade straight away, so GW had my back today.
Lov'in presearing atm, thanks Emma for getting me back into it!

Surge goes pre · June 18, 2017 at 6:22 AM

You know... EK... that is an illegal item in presearing that you are showing off =P

xiouNaiw · June 20, 2017 at 8:40 PM

We DEFINITELY need a newt central Chestruns thread with updated locations & drops !!
didnt know tasca could drop so much magma ! :o

Ddraeg · August 13, 2017 at 1:58 PM

In pursuit of my first ever GWAMM, I am working my way through Tyria skill capping. Today there has been alot of Hell's Precipice runs and I've been treated to two Superior Vigor runes!

Tyrant · August 15, 2017 at 5:06 AM

Was having a good day till guild wars decided to play some sick joke while chest running

Ddraeg · August 15, 2017 at 8:54 AM

You've been tortured Tyrant! I popped a Mursaat Hammer Q9, didn't want to ID it and when I did I was slapped with a 14%Stance....

Hrwakka · August 17, 2017 at 12:46 AM

Guildwars treated me good today! After searching for a few years now, I finally found the Q13 naked purple crystalline sword to complete the set! Now all I have to do is find a Max Damage Q8, THE HUNT CONTINUES!

If anyone has a max damage Req 8, hit me up! I would love to have it. It would make my set EVEN better!

Enchanted Krystal · August 17, 2017 at 2:59 AM

Nice taste mate, I wonder how long it took Zeph to put the set together that he gave me then. Hope you find another max Q8 as his is already customized.

Aeterna · August 17, 2017 at 9:54 AM

Again, a kick in the nuts. <_>

Pleikki · September 22, 2017 at 11:12 AM

Last 2days Chesting and farming drops, im not sure if i feel lucky or not but guess theyre better then normally, tho i wish they wouldve been better

Zephyr · September 23, 2017 at 12:37 PM

Probably have a record on my hands... right? lol

Expugnare · September 23, 2017 at 5:53 PM

I've done UW in two or three back in my running days :P, no screens though, since that computer has long since died.

Earthbind really helps when getting the initial burst to trigger the teleport.

Also I'm certain people like Jeydra have done it faster than me.

Surge goes pre · September 23, 2017 at 6:27 PM

Zephyr, I think I have a screenshot somewhere of me doing that mission with heroes in 1:40. I'll have to look later and try to find it.

Expugnare · September 23, 2017 at 6:35 PM

Not to mention I'm sure from a raw dmg output POV you could be faster with one less E/Mo, ESurge over panic and probably another RoJ monk and maybe PI/YMLAD/FH.

Perhaps not as good for general PVE but prob/def better at Kuuna spiking.

I think when I did it in 2m~ I used Air spike too.

Emma · September 23, 2017 at 7:22 PM Official Post

Im going to try and set a time tonight hahaha

Expugnare · September 23, 2017 at 7:26 PM

My comps been dead for last 3 days. Prob can't be on for a while D,:

Buuuuuuut if this is a thing now--how about this, no cons or other people allowed. Just heroes on your end and henchies on other end of UW.
