Quick update, Just made it to Lions Arch. The Frost Gate was a pain, had to map out at the end the first attempt. Gates of Kryta's Bonus enemies (Smoke Phantoms) spamming chain lightning gave a little scare, but otherwise wasn't too hard. Got a new pet! His name's Iron. (might get a new pet per campaign for fun)
.
Update! So far still alive with the Ranger, playing at range is a lot better than a squishy Assassin. Almost died at Ruins of Surmia, and had to map out. Beat Nolani Academy (though, for some reason I thought that during the Bonus, if you dropped the tome, the spirits would stop attacking, but I'm glad I tested it out first before just rushing in.) Currently at Yak's Bend, got Fur armor to make the cold trek over the Shiverpeaks, and pet the Yaks as is required by law. lol.
Still very much enjoying the game in this manner. 
I guess it depends on how much I want to hate myself haha. Yeah I'm still unsure if I want to change some rules or not, but I can if I feel the need to as I play, it'll just depend. Good points though. Maybe since I'm doing a deathless run, should grant me use of the chest for storage, not to grab items I never got previously, but to save drops like you said. I might end up doing that, we'll see.
Thanks for the Guild Invite!
Yeah I'd love to join the Discord, and I'd be tempted to make a character to join you, but with my work schedule I can be pretty limited to time on certain days, and I'd rather not hold you up if you're waiting on me haha.
-Totally rocking the IRON cape
Slow start to this character (been busy lately) but I'm out of Pre. If I can survive the searing.. I can do this nonsense I set for myself 
Well, this was quick, almost 2 hours in and I died. I was at Zen Daijun and a few too many afflicted with their soul explosions did him in. Didn't even make it off the Island 
I knew Assassin would be hard though.
And now...here's a new randomized character, Iron Volley. I have better hopes of survivability with a Ranger
I'll probably try again tomorrow, and without afflicted explosions I think I'll last a little longer. Till then.
Hello! I'm new to this forum, but I've played Guild Wars for a long time, and just recently found out about this challenge! I've read several other people's attempts and journey of replaying this loved game, and decided to give it a shot myself! Edit: I've decided not to stream, but I'll post updates here.
So, here are my rules, this will also be done on a fresh account bought from the 20 year Celebration sale.
* No trading with players (unless I'm sending stuff to my alts, I will never receive items)
* No Bank or Material Storage, everything I want to keep must remain in my inventory.
* No Consumables, Summoning Stones, etc that help to play, also no tomes (though on a fresh account it won't be much help anyway)
* No usage of Material, Rune, or Weapon Traders.
* Can only use skills after unlocking them myself by quests, local skill trainers (cannot purchase skills that say Unlocked). For Heroes, I must have obtained that skill for them to use as well. If I want Koss to have Hundred Blades, I have to cap it myself. (this will allow me to easily figure out what skills my heroes can use if I restart and my heroes have previously unlocked skills.)
* Must play through campaigns in order (Prophecies > Factions > Nightfall > Eye of the North > Beyond (Maybe). However if a Non-Proph Character is used, as soon as they can, I'll switch to Prophecies and run to Ascalon to start.
* No Heroes until Nightfall and Eye of the North
*Oh yeah, and If my character dies they get deleted, the scariest rule of them all.
My Goals:
* Beat the campaigns in order and get the Protector Title, once I do that, I'll allow myself to use Heroes in every campaign to get Guardian (because I'm not sure If I can get bonuses on certain missions in Hard Mode with just Henchies)
* If I can do that, I'll probably try to aim for elite armor, maybe try to do some harder challenges like FoW, UW, DoA, etc, (though I'm not entirely experienced with those, so either I'll allow cons at that point or think of something else... I'll cross that bridge once I get to it)
* Try to work on completing titles, GWAMM maybe?
* Obby Armor? (maybe allow Mat traders since again, I'm not experiences in FoW and UW... I don't know yet)
* Complete on more professions.
My experience with trying not to die is farming the Kilroy quest for Survivor, so I think this'll be interesting, definitely challenging, but very fun. I'm excited to start on this, and to hear more from your own attempts.
This is Iron Shadow Bomb, I used a randomizer to choose the Profession, Sex, and appearance to make it interesting.
He's an Assassin starting in Factions, once I get to Kaineng Center, I'll ship to LA, and run to Ascalon to do the proper start.
I'll try to remember to take screenshots to post updates. I can see this going pretty well, and also very terribly with lots of deaths,
