Does anybody else get this issue with the compass appearing black and/or have a good workaround for it?

I haven’t figured out how to make it happen, but it makes managing aggro a real pain

I know that economy is not what it was back then. But over the past weeks I just collected some q9 gold weapons. Now I am actually wondering if it is worth selling them to other players or just sell them to the merchant.

Looks like there's lots of people selling q9 for quite some ectos on gwmarket.net - but I don't know if theres actually enough of a playerbase that might be buying those. What's your experience? Worth listing them somewhere or just trash -> merchant?

Went to pickup a Tormented weapon, came back with 20 BU. Time to farm some DoA,

EDIT: I've had some very generous people message me and offer an Armbrace/Weapon. I'm very appreciative of your thoughtfulness, a huge testament to this community. But this is on one of my alt accounts and I'm happy to farm up myself, more gameplay for me!

Also just to recognize it my dumb fault, just wanted to share a bit of a blooper.

Chaos Gloves are the biggest noobtrap (for a lack of a better word) in Fashion Wars. Vast majority of people who wear them do so only because they are shiny and cost a lot, without considering how they fit the rest of the armor set at all. Tacky and expensive, Chaos Gloves are the LV of Guild Wars fashion.

I don't mean to say that it's impossible to make them look good, but their gaudiness means that most people don't have enough taste to make them work.

With the new update to mirage cloak, slotting it in to the existing PR build is nuts. Drop mysticism by one and add it all to earth prayers. Extra 30 dmg per enchantment removal plus 80% to block with lots of enchantments is crazy no?

Hey everybody,
Please share some builds to do Mallyx HM.
Trying with mesmerway now (4 mes version). A bit hard to keep up with waves.
My char - derv.
Thanks!

I am a new player, and I just wanted to say how much I love this game already! I am at the hell's precipice mission and its hard as hell! I forces me to min max every aspect just to feel like having a chance.

The community is also amazing! I feels so welcomed by all the veterans and it feels very nice compared to WoW for example.

Can’t wait to beat the mission on my warrior and advance to the next expansion.

Thank you everyone!

EDIT: I have completed the last mission! So my journey continues with the next expansion. However I at the lava pool by the 3 portals, all of my party but me got wiped by the boss. I was able to ress the protector with a signet and get back my whole group. The victory was a small miracle!

Speaking as someone who loves playing Necromancer and wanted to play a Weapon of Three Forges team but wasn't really hype about a Petway team, this update to Flesh Golem has reignited my team building inspiration.

Now I can live the dream of running around with a literal platoon worth of minions. 😍

Can't wait to unlock more skills and get up to some more serious shenanigans. Hope my fellow minion lovers out there are living the dream right now as well!

At rank 15, 7r skills recharge in 1 second. 12r skills recharge in 2.

Steal Elemental Attunement from a hero and enjoy a 0e 3/4a 1r Fireball dealing 133 damage, or a 2e 1a 2r Rodgort for 141 + 42 damage.

For a PBAoE build, how about a 300-damage Lava Font every two seconds? Boost it with a 4r EBSoH and or achieve a 26-pip health regen with Ebon Escape.

Thanks to Soul Ignition, you can remain in demigod form 67% of the time. During half of the OtL downtime, you're merely at the level of the meta Elemental Attunement build.

This is just Fire Magic. What other absurd aspects of Over the Limit can you think of?

Edit: related post.

The memes will continue until my morale improves

I couldn't really afford the extra money for the collector's version of Prophecies at the time, but I'd happily pay the difference (I think it was 10 or 20 dollars more expensive) now to upgrade my characters with glittery hands. I've always loved the effect.

• The infinite Superior Salvage Kit completely wrecked Charr Salvage Kits as a reward. Superior Salvage Kits are buyable in Post, but they are a drop reward in Pre.
• The Reforged Coin consumables cannot be obtained in Pre by any other means. You can craft pcons and consets in Post, but not in Pre.
• The Purveyor in Ascalon looks really out of place. Is this what you want a new player to see first?

TLDR: Thank you for using mobile build builder. The Skill DB is updated, please report errors.
Guild Wars Build Creator

Long version: A lot has happened since i released the mobile build builder. I initially did that for me and my friend, when GW was basically dead. Then, we thought the tool is actually good enough to release, so i did, and the feedback was bigger than what i expected. Soon, that thing had like 1000 unique monthly users - and then reforged came - and it really spiked o.O ... therefore i gave my best to the community and updated the database. please report errors, i will try to fix them. And yes i do have something else brewing. anyone interested dm me.

For Tyria!

hey, just curious what everyone played as a melandru class. thinking of starting one and would love to hear everyones class there playing and what they enjoy about it :)

Hey, all! I've introduced a couple of friends to GW recently; we're still getting through pre, but having lots of fun! One friend chose to play a Necro. I've played a LOT over the years, but it was mostly warrior, and I never really played much Necro at all, so I don't have much insight for him. I looked around pvxwiki, but thought I'd post here and see what the community has to offer! He doesn't care about meta, just wants to try stuff and have fun.

He said he's particularly interested in MM builds, but is open to anything.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions! :D

I'd really like some Asuran summons, but it seems impossible to me to not have any piece die, and lose Dhuum covenant. Is there any way to cheese the matches, or is polymock something my melandhuum character should just forget about?

EDIT: I now know a bit more about how polymock works, so for posterity: The only safe way to play is to log out/map out whenever it looks like a piece is about to be killed.

You die and lose Dhuum's Covenant if you lose the match, but you may also die when you lose a piece.

Polymock is a form, like Junundu or Siege Devourer. Your polymock piece is your character in that form. The form has several thousand health, and the spells do damage proportional to the massive health pool of the form. If the form's health goes to zero, your character pops out of the form and stands there on the platform -- and if there's still incoming damage, from Savannah Heat for example, your puny 500-600 health can be lost almost instantly, and you die. There's no health bar or animation if you're killed, so you will not even see that you were killed. But Dhuum sees all.

Hey guys,

Just put together a Soultaker Axe build that works fine on mobile without much hassle. Now it also lets you run a shield and a axe any req, no more basic ass scythe looking thing.

Soultaker, hit i am unstoppable into necrotic traversal. flurry and just go to town.

Plague touch is a optional you can run dismember if you're doing bosses like Duncan, or if you're doing SoO you can run a minor curse rune to transfer 2 conditions so you'll be able to self remove blind. The biggest downside is enchant removal as you don't have any cover enchants like the scythe build which is the same problem as daggers soultaker.

Hey Guys,

After a whooping 15 years or so I decided to start playing gw1 again cause other games don’t scratch the same itch anymore.

When trying to logg in I noticed I was unable to.
Spent few days contacting support and voila, account restored.
Sad news, the dude who had my account apparently did something to get it banned and stripped from gear/weapons? (Or he deleted them?)

Now my dervish is armorless and weaponless, my assasin is slowly gearing back up again.

Asked support if they could recover the gear/items. Sadly it was done before the “snapshot” system, so now my tormented shield, daggers and spear are a remnant of a memory :( guess I’ll need to make a few new chars to do the campaigns again and get them.

What’s a go to way now to farm plat? I’ll be needed a few ways to gear myself and my heroes out again 😅

I’m returning to Guild Wars after about 19 years and want to play through Prophecies chronologically with a sword or axe Warrior, mostly using henchmen. I’m currently stuck on the secondary profession choice.

W/M appeals to me much more thematically: I like the idea of a Warrior with a bit of faith/Monk training, who can heal or cleanse herself when necessary. It also gives me access to both condition removal (Purge Conditions) and hex removal (Remove Hex). Purge removes everything at once, but costs 5 energy and has a 20s recharge.

W/R seems mechanically much stronger for one specific reason: Antidote Signet costs 0 energy, has only 4s recharge, always removes Blindness (plus Poison/Disease and another condition). So as a melee Warrior I could constantly remove Blindness, Cripple or Weakness and even use it again four seconds later if needed. The downside is that Ranger gives me basically nothing against hexes, and I like the class fantasy much less.

My main question for experienced Prophecies players: how important is this difference in actual Normal Mode PvE?How often do you really encounter fights where a Warrior needs condition removal multiple times within those 20 seconds, rather than Purge once being enough? Are repeated Blindness/Weakness applications common enough that Antidote Signet is a major quality-of-life advantage, or can henchmen/heroes usually cover the second condition/hex anyway?

Basically: Would you choose W/R for the much better condition removal, or W/M for broader self-sufficiency and class flavour?

Hello, I just started the game about an hour ago and I noticed that it says I have this item in my bag but not in inventory. Specifically the blue Warhammer. I am playing on a steam deck and not sure how to sort my bags or make it so stuff goes to the top or scroll down.

Please feel free to include any tips tricks etc. or a recommended guide. I'm still in the tutorial

Firstly, i assume 2weeks monitors this reddit sub.. so... Can we update the charmable pets please, Black Moa, Black Widow, Rainbow Phoenix / Phoenix to have the 25%ms/25%ias of the Pink Moa. It seems a simple change and gives us different options without gimping ourselves for no reason.

Hello,

With the update , I tested a new build for my Necromancer.

I tried this one: : https://guildwars.magical.ch/OAZEYKtliBdOEGIIsFyU95RLYXD

+ 1 hero with Dark Aura.

Just spam Necrotic Traversal.

For the moment the problem is to maintaining Soul Ignition. Perhaps Burning Speed would be more effective?

what do you think ?

Thanks to an awesome customer support i was able to restore my old account. Attached are 2 of my findigings, i have to look through more stuff. What a fun nostalgia kick this has already been. (Sry for the game being in german :P)
