...to get the Fissure of Woe armour for 1 of my 8 characters. How to spend 1 and a half million gold in less than an hour!

Still its one accomplishment few have made in the game. You won't really understand how hard it is to get this armour unless your a Guild Wars player who's considered buying it. I blame this for my lack of presents at these forums :(

this was a joke my dt teacher always said about out gcse's, well it was more along the lines of they dont give these things away if you have 10 tokens, you need to work at'em or summin but:

can you not collect coupons to buy that armour off the top of cerial packets yet ;)


i have lost my self now so i will shut up :p

Almost enough Ectos and shards now to buy the FoW robe for my Ele. Think I might try and wait though and buy it all at once. Means I got to get another 60 Ectos and 60 shards though to do that.

SK

I lied, still need the pants but got the rest of the stuff. 30 Ectos to find now or 200,000 gold to buy em. Not to mention the shards.

can u go around naked?

SK
4th April 2006, 17:28
Apart from the undies. You wont last too long without armour though.

4th April 2006, 19:25
so how many people have got that far then ?

SK
5th April 2006, 07:39
There are a few but I would imagine about 1 in every 500 players has it. It's not a case of getting far its just a case of saving enough money to get the armour. Put it this way it's not possible to save up enough cash in game to buy the materials all at once since you can only hold a maximum of 999,999 gold. Money is something that you don't see much of in this game either.

This (http://www.irtehwin.f2s.com/gw/gw043.jpg) was taken during a Halloween special night last year. This is 1 of maybe 25 English Districts that had people in. There's a few hundred thousand players.

SK
22nd May 2006, 15:44
Now to start on the monk's armour :p

I might have a go with some of the HzH quests later with the monk. Like you say though you really need to play with at least one other offensive human since the hench aren’t too good at attacking enemies without some sort of guidance.

Weeee

Hard mode is great fun. Great feeling to be able to go back to Tyria and experiance it like it was my first time all over again.

How did a group of level 20's fail The Great Northen Wall mission? That just sounds not right...

Rebirth is going to be a needed skill on everyones skill bar.

Are there major hordes of high level nasties there now and what's with the 'People know me' title ?

Edit: Just read about it on wikki,sounds like a lot of fun,maybe it'll inspire me to get back into GW a bit more.

SK

The next level up from "Kind of A Big Deal". 10-14 maxed titles. I currently sit at 11 maxed titles. Before this update I was only 6 maxed.

I attempted the very first mission quickly this morning before heading out to work. I had two monks and an ele with me. It was tough but not too bad. Only died as we got overwhelmed by lots of popups. Wild Blow is needed to remove the rangers out of their lightening reactions stances.

I got a feeling I am going to really enjoy Tyria but hate the other chapters.
