Guild Wars 2 Diary

In our last diary entry we took a look at what made the World Vs World section of Guild Wars 2 so special. It’s fun, it’s huge, it helps you with your main quest – but it has its problems as well. Part of that is down to the fact that you can’t have non-stop action all of the time, and part of it is that we’re not quite to the point, connection-wise, where we can actually support the bits that have non-stop action. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

This week, I thought we’d go through a few tips that may or may not help you beat the competition in the mists. Feel free to add your own below.

We’ve played a lot of the story in these Guild Wars 2 diaries, or have looked at expansions and side quests. That was done on purpose, for a couple of reasons. Firstly, the World Vs World is dominated by people who know what they’re doing and, secondly, it feels so much more directionless than the main game. The minute I log out, the world vs world servers carry on without me, for better or for worse. It’s a great idea, but not as easy to cover in a weekly diary. For that reason, this week we stepped into the mists, sword in hand, to take on our rival worlds in battle.
