Also get a salvage kit for salvage items and white equipment you don't want to sell for more materials. There are 'farms' of gatherable food items in every map on a 23 hour respawn timer that contain the only source of that food item, although there may be a couple of say potato farms across the world. Nodes are not used up for other people when you use them, so don't shy away. You get about three times the exp for an individual enemy kill by gathering from a node and about twice from reviving a downed or defeated player or NPC, EXCEPT when you kill an enemy that hasn't been killed in a while, where the longer it's been alive the more bonus exp you gain. Yellow enemies are great for this as they're usually ignored by people running past or who don't know this.

Each of the three armourmaking professions, armoursmith, tailor, leatherworker, can make storage bags that from rank 0 have eight slots over the default buyable bags which have four. You can access your bank from a crafting workstation, normal space including gold storage on the third tab, collectibles on the fourth. The cogwheel tab in the inventory has the command Deposit All Collectibles that Obdi mentions, by the way.

When you complete a renown heart - which are basically signposts saying THERE ARE EVENTS AROUND HERE GEARED FOR THE LEVEL ON MY HEAD BUT THERE ARE STILL EVENTS EVERYWHERE SO EXPLORE DAMN IT - the heart NPC turns into a vendor, selling various items such as weapons, armour, salvage kits, recipes for crafting and consumables.

More as and when I can think of them.

When completing hearts, check your mail, they send thank you letter and some money, in first BWE took some time before I noticed it


IT IS ON

Come on, I bet some of you have taken all the names that I was considering from the malazan world.

[Lusipher]

I rolled on the Northern Shiverpeaks server, created an asura mesmer named Teelorast and a Charr engineer named Bent Bonehunter.

[Illuyankas]

Official headstart was 8am, servers were meant to go live up to three hours beforehand, which would have been 5am.

They went live 5:01am.

There's a couple of log-in issues now so I can't get back into the game, but I don't give a damn I had seven straight hours of GW2 inbetween, and I could do with a lunch break.

Seems like it´s Guild Wars 42. Played the game for neigh on seven hours, no issues whatsoever until i opened a chest and crashed. I am quite happy with this relatively smooth launch. Is there a Malaz Guild yet?

[Ukjent]

Smooth launch? This is a bloody nightmare in comparison to all the betas and stresstest. Can't even play the game.

I'm talking about the actual game. Mid-to-High range computer, everything on Ultra, 60+ FPS in a massively crowded starting zone and no ping issues while playing on NA server from EU. That's pretty jawesome.

[Wolfy]

Actually the launch went fantastically smooth until a snag was hit with the login servers at about 8hours in. Which tbh most of us were fine with and could use the break/sleep
My ageing system has handled it well and for the most part lag was a non-issue for us downunder folk.


There is also a Malazan Guild up and running for those interested in joining it.

Okay, two-day GW2 binge complete, methinks it's bedtim-HOLY SHIT IT'S 12:30AM, I'VE GOT WORK IN THE MORNING!

[Lusipher]

I found a new best friend. Alcohol may have been involved as we journeyed through Lion's Arch.

[Shiara]

Oh! It is a b*tch to 100% Lion's Arch, there's one viewpoint (South-East, in the mountains) that is reeeeeally tricky to get to. Luci and I managed, though, and it was awesome
