Also because except the Tengu mission, the other ones are a pain in the ass.

Clean as always

It would be cool too to take screenshots with weapons and skills or poses, there are plenty of possibilities. It's a pity that many of the photos that were in GW Guru were lost because they were uploaded via ImageShack, when they did the mass cleansing almost half of internet pictures were deleted, many forums ended empty.

Another chance to enter the Ahmtur Arena destroyed. Tears of sorrow ~~

I'm gonna ask the redundant question: if you played the first weeks of the release, do you remember by ANY chance something about the Brick of Mud or Clay Brick? It's a mystery that remains unsolved.

I was wondering if it's possible for ArenaNet to create a "GW Classic" like Blizzard has done with WoW (in this case, playing the game before Factions like in the first two months of the release) using a backup or image of the game from 2005.

I remember reading countless times that many of the code of GW is hardcoded and can't be changed or it's very difficult. I don't fully understand this since I'm not videogame programmer/designer, but in computing everything can be changed, it's a question of knowing. They have said many times that the character loading screen cannot be changed for something related to this, so if they can't even change that, I don't want to imagine what a mess the inside of this game must be. Too bad there is no developer left to talk to, to explain a few things.

Quote from Hate Core

We all dont know how many secrets are still around, but this is why we love it.

Counting on what ArenaNet has done with the game? Zero. Where each update seems more like a penalty than an improvement.

I still remember in 2005 how they did the marketing for this game. It was something like: "Join forces with your friends, combine a large number of skills to pass the challenges and be the best of all." (like Pokémon and that shit, and we know very well that Nintendoesn't give a shit about anyone

and it's pure facade).

And how this was after actually, of course: "Oh, a player discovered a way to do <something> using the system that we have created and that we support/encourage them to use. LET'S FUCK IT!! ejjejejejeje xdddd".

There is only 1 way to discover things in this game: 1) Discover it. 2) Shut up about it.

I remember seeing some of your armor sets when we were at GTOB time ago, but without weapons, now with weapons it's more impressive. Zodiac, Outcast and Cockatrice ones particulary.

Got mine a few minutes ago.

Big thanks to Matthew Moore to acknowledge the existence of the weapon, to Endarkks Ziatri for being the first one to discover it, and to all the people in Discord and Reddit in this burning and passionate time trial hunt.

Congratulations to Endarkks

After reading everything including the Discord, I have only 1 concern: is not strange that no one discovered this when the gw.dat was dumped entirely finding all the discarded content like the old gods (Arachnia), etc?

I say this because, perhaps, the hidden weapon is not necessarily a "new" weapon, only a normal quest reward weapon like any other, but hidden. If the weapon has a different or exclusive name like a green from a boss, then when the gw.dat was dumped someone should have seen it.

This is the quality content that I needed again to awake the interest for this game, I quit in 2011 and returned in 2019 or so, so I've skipped almost all of this. I'm going to read it all carefully, thanks for the summary.

Quote from since 05

The weird part was I was spamming for this specific item. Convienently a few days later hes selling one obviously to try and get me to bite.

I know one in particular doing this shit almost every day of the week. Not the same user, but just as idiot.

I dont get why people are willing to buy these if they didnt have a hand in earning the accommodation, just for some trim on their cape?

Quote from Stexe

Why do you like -5/20% vs -2(Stance/Enchantment)? The -2 is better assuming you can always keep your Stance/Enchantment up. Assuming you're using that modifier you'd most likely have a build that always has a Stance/Enchantment around.

I use the shield occasionally with my Ele (very occasionally in PvE), and the -2 is practically nothing for my type of caster armor, it doesn't matter what enemy hit me because they will always damage me a lot, so I prefer having +20 extra armor to reach 90 (+10 of the shield itself and +10 of the inscription) or trying my luck with the -5. Both options without using a skill that gives armor, only using weapons I mean. Also sometimes I use a sword with armor +5 or +7.

https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Armor_rating

https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Armor_calculation

Here is all explained, but the best way to calculate it with your customized character is in a 1 vs 1 with another player and changing weapons to see the differences. In my case I prefer +10 (vs. Damage Type) or -5/20%, I don't like the -2^Stance/Ench (personal opinion).
