Starting off[edit]

I have paid for two Guildwar games, but cannot get started. But I have not been able to find an access key, either from trial offers, special events or promotions as suggested. Do I need CD's, which I have not got, to start things off ? If not what do I do ? Regards Gunnar

How did you purchase the game? I'm assuming via the playNC.com website, since you don't have CD's. If that's the case, log in to the PlayNC website with your account and go to 'manage'. You should get options there that will help. - Thulsey Zheng - talk 06:22, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
If you bought the game from the PlayNC website, then I think the access keys may have already been added to your account. Have you downloaded the client and installed it? -- ab.er.rant sig 11:19, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
If you bought GW from playNC.com, you can login to PlayNC and go to manage or you may use your login name with @plaync or @ncsoft with your plaync account name. example 123log@plaync. Also may you please provide where you bought the GW games from so that we may provide better solutions to you?--Bane of Worlds (talkcontribs) 13:42, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Character Slots[edit]

   Is there a limit on how many characters you can buy?--211.27.133.151 04:32, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
I have it on good authority that the official number is limited only by the amount of credit you have on your credit card :) - Thulsey Zheng - talk 06:23, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
No, there is a limit at, I think it was 24. That is, how many you can buy. You will still gain the character slots if you buy a new game and such. So, the maximum would be 4(first game)+2+3(nf preorder)+24 I think. That makes 33 slots in total, with 24 buyable. (It might be 23, or 25, but it's around there) - anja talk 09:30, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
The limit is 26 actually :P (see NF FAQ). The most number of character slots you can buy... so if you actually bought 26 slots, then you'll have a maximum of 4+2+3+26 = 35. -- ab.er.rant sig 11:22, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you both for your knowledge

access code[edit]

i installed gw then uninstalled it now i am reinstalling it and lost my access key can it be emeiled to me? --74.129.71.199loki_mad@yahoo.com

Once a key is added to your account you will never need it again. All you need is your login name/email and your password. --Lemming64 13:38, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

the buddy key[edit]

Uhm well, i don't know what the buddy key is for?--24.151.100.156 18:11, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

You can give a buddy key to a friend so that they can play Prophecies/Factions/Nightfall for 10 hours or 14 days without paying for an account. -- User indochine sig icon.pngIndochine talk 18:14, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Minipets[edit]

i haven't got a mini-pet on my chars, but I've had them for 1-2 years, why haven't i gotten any minis? and will i get them?--71.142.232.13 19:06, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

have you tried /age ingame with your characters? The ones with 12 months or 24 months will have a birthday present spawned in their inventory if they have inventory space to spare. Double click the presents for the mini-pets.--Bane of Worlds (talkcontribs) 19:16, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

First of all, wiki users can't help you with this - you'll need to contact Guild Wars Support in regards to compromised accounts. Second of all, you may not want to put your email address on the wiki like this - it's up to you, but it's not necessary, since as my first sentenced already mentioned, the people on this wiki can't help you. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 01:17, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
TulipVorlax has chronicled some of the account thief problems he's had here. You need to contact GW Support as Aiiane has said although you can leave a note on TulipVorlax's talk page in addition to logging a support ticket, he might be able to give you some information on what worked/didn't work for him. --Xasxas256 01:20, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry to hear that. We can't really help you here. Your best bet is to quickly make a report to Anet support and provide as many details as possible, including the time and date of all that has occurred. -- ab.er.rant sig 01:29, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

bots[edit]

What is anet doing about the rampant influx of bots in the game? It seems like anet has lowered the drop rates throughout the game to alter the economy. Why not get rid of the bots? If you haven't seen them, go to Chahbek Village in Elona and see the masses of necs with funny names and no guild alliances. Or go to Granite Citadel in Tyria and see the Mo/Me. Or go to Altrum Ruins in Cantha and see them there. Or probably any other number of places I have not seen yet. 67.170.134.192 05:52, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

how do i release my pet? --74.171.137.21 08:10, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

if its a mini pet - double click on it (in your inventory), however if you mean a Pet (melandru's stalker, phoenix, etc) then you must have Charm Animal equipped in your skill bar then go into any explorable area --The Great Tomato The Great Tomato 08:15, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
i mean like let it go and get a new 1 --74.171.137.21
You need to take it to a Pet tamer then you can go and capture a new pet using the Charm Animal skill --The Great Tomato The Great Tomato 08:21, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

About Leveling up[edit]

I got 1 qestion,i was asking ppl about it buth everyone got their own answer.. So the qestion i was asking is wth happends after we reach lvl 20..My exp / Skill points grows buth do i get stronger, do i maby do more dmg ?... Coz i was planing to have only 1 character that i make as stronger as i can, buth when i heard that i dont get stornger i started to qestion my self is there a point of making my character stronger or not, or i should make a new 1 and start all over again..??

I hope for answer soon.. Ty
You will only gain more experience and skill points. There are other ways to make your character stronger (unlocking skills, item upgrades, etc) but levelling beyond 20 is not one of them. This is so that everyone is on the same playing-field, character-wise, at level 20. This is particularly important in PvP, but also important in PvE.
Make a new character, it's fun! ^^ - Thulsey Zheng - talk 11:19, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Just want to add that there are also 2 quests you can to for 15 additional Attribute points each in your character's native continent if you haven't done them already. --Valshia 16:58, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Dual Strike Quest Walkthrough[edit]

THis is an assassin on gw who cannot find out how to do the quest "dual strike". Every time i talk to panaku, he stops and tells me if i see him, to kill him. I need a walkthrough badly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 -67.163.64.67 19:00, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

If you have any quests from the 2007 Dragon Festival still in your quest log those seem to fubar many Shing Jea Island quests. Try abandoning/completing any of those quests first. HeWhoIsPale 19:04, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Is there a way to unlearn a profession? For example: My Ranger has the second profession of Mesmer. I have decided I'd like to try Necromancer instead. How would I 'unlearn' Mesmer so that I may get Necromancer?--69.149.72.112 20:05, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

The Profession Changer NPC can do that, the one in factions is at Senji's Corner. HeWhoIsPale 20:15, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Professions...[edit]

Is there a way to 'unlearn' a profession? For example: My Ranger has the secondary profession of Mesmer. I have come to the decision that I'd like to be a Ranger/Necromancer instead. Is there a way for me to 'unlearn' being a Mesmer so that I may come a Necromancer? If you need clarifying of what I mean, I'll do my best to do so.--69.149.72.112 20:08, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

To change your secondary profession, you need to Ascend. After that, you can take one of the profession quests in Prophecies (in your case, The Necromancer's Path), or in Factions and Nightfall you can go to Senji or Zuwarah respectively, both requiring ascension in their respective campaigns. Hope that helps. -- AT(talk | contribs) 20:12, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
After you've ascended in a chapter, you'll be able to access a means of switching your secondary profession at will. Your primary profession, however, cannot change. For Prophecies, see the various "The _______'s Path" quests listed under the Crystal Desert quests heading. For Factions, you'll be able to talk to a [Profession Changer] NPC (Senji) in Senji's Corner. For Nightfall, a similar NPC is available in the Command Post outside of Sunspear Sanctuary. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 20:17, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
You can go to the Great Temple of Balthazar and talk to the profession changer, but you must be ascended. That counts for Prophecies characters too, but if you do the Prophecies quests (other campaign characters can do them, and also ascend in any campaign if they haven't before) you get free skills. :) - BeX iawtc 05:09, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

missing pet[edit]

how do I find a ranger pet who is 'out of range'-71.59.212.74 00:33, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Are you having the same problem as this? If so then you just need equip Charm Animal. --Xasxas256 01:02, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Sometimes pets get stuck -- used to happen to me at shrines all the time, but sometimes elsewhere. They didn't wander off, they're somewhere along the path; you have to decide if it's worth it for you to backtrack and pick them up or not. - Thulsey Zheng - talk 01:26, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
If it's not with you, it's somewhere you've been before. It won't wander of on it's own, but it can get stuck. SO just backtrack to where you've been earlier. If you've forgoten, follow the red dots on the minimap. (Default key 'u'). Backsword 15:58, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Attribute points problem[edit]

I have a Rit character that I only have 185 attribute points. Now I know about the 2-15 point quests and i'm sure i did them. I have checked and rechecked for other quests and cannot find any. So I created a new necro character and made sure I had the 2-15 point quests and I got the points but now at level 19 i only have 170 points. What am I missing?

--69.47.28.133 01:33, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Still sounds like you didn't get the two 15 point quests. What chapter are these characters created in? Perhaps you are going for the 15 point quests in the wrong chapter or you accompanied someone else on theirs and your quest was not active? Just some guesses in the mean time. --File:VallenIconwhitesmall.JPG Vallen Frostweaver 01:42, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
At level 19, with 2 15-att quests done, you should have 185 attribute points. You must have missed one. Which campaign is this character in? If we know, we might be able to work out what you've missed. -- AT(talk | contribs) 01:45, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
It might help if you tell us what you thought were the 2 15-point quests that you did. -- ab.er.rant sig 02:02, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
The quests for Factions are Lost Treasure from Raithen Nem in Ran Musu Gardens and An Unwelcome Guest from the Zunraa in Seitung Harbor. It's easy to miss An Unwelcome Guest, as the Zunraa in Seitung Harbor only appears when someone rings the bell at its shrine. -- Gordon Ecker 02:05, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

All these characters are from Factions. The two quests were Lost Treasure and An Unwelcome Guest. I just discovered the quest was not really done correctly as the leader of the party was a dervish. I am going to redo the quest on my own and see if that corrects the problem. Thanks --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:69.47.28.133 .

Take away an access key?[edit]

Unable to Complete a Mission[edit]

I was loading the mission for Minister Cho's Estate when GuildWars crashed. After I logged back in I found myself in the outpost of the estate without the quest in my mission log and upon returning to the quest-giver, I found myself unable to get it once more.

Im kind of stuck now, so... eh?

--24.2.179.79 23:28, 18 July 2007 (UTC)


Mission, or quest? Missions do not show up in your Quest Log; in fact, they don't show up anywhere but the world map. If it is the mission, there's no one to speak to in Factions. In the party window is a button that says something along the lines of 'Start Mission'. If it is a quest in that area, can you give the name of the last quest you did so we can help get you back on track? - Thulsey Zheng - talk 01:44, 19 July 2007 (UTC)


Hah, I feel a bit dumb now -- so used to playing Nightfall I forgot about that button... Thanks xD

Access Key[edit]

How do I get a trial/ temporary access key. I just want to play and see if I like it. If I do then I'll buy it.--64.183.114.5 00:06, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Ask around. Every bought copy of GW comes with a trial key that can be given to a friend. The various fan forums are decent places to ask for one. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 00:07, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
(edit conflict) They are usually included on cover cd's for magazines. Also when you get the game they include one trial key for a friend, so do you have a friend who plays? failing that post on a popular community forum, you may find someone willing to give you one if you ask nicely :) I don't have any before you ask! --Lemming64 00:08, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Uninstalling[edit]

moved from Help:Ask a wiki question

how do you uninstall guild wars84.27.214.151 08:29, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Either through add/remove programs in the Windows Control Panel or by running gw.exe with the -unistall command line arguement. -- Gordon Ecker 08:46, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Try Start>Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs. Wait for it to build the list and find/remove GW. But why uninstall? o.0 - Thulsey Zheng - talk 08:49, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Re-image perhaps? Some have dat files that are much larger than others and a fresh -image of the dat may reduce the overall size and access time for the game. Of course, at this point that may take days depending on the internet speed to d/l. Just a guess though. --File:VallenIconwhitesmall.JPG Vallen Frostweaver 18:37, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

acceptable ingame request/behavior[edit]

I have run into the same person twice now once in Nightfall and once in Presearing making the same lude and vile request in public chat.I do have a screenshot of the second inciedent but not the first one (well of the request that was made by this person who by the way claims to be the child of an administraighter)I will try to include the screenshot I have my question is this.Is asking for female slaves in open chat conciderd to be acceptable language to be used in a game that is suppose to be as much for children as it is for adults?? 65.30.111.23 17:04, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

What is the purpose for signing questions with characters that reveal IP address?[edit]

???--76.183.131.158 00:14, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Any edit you make reveals your IP address in recent changes anyway. If you don't want it shown then register an account, then your account name is shown instead. The IP address is a way of identifying anonymous users. --Lemming64 00:18, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
More importantly it's a way of identifying who is making what edits/asking what questions where; signing your comments just makes it easier to identify you for future reference. - Thulsey Zheng - talk 01:20, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Travel between campaigns[edit]

moved from Guild Wars Wiki talk:Community portal

i have both prophices and factions installed how do i switch from one campaign to another on a character???? it says i can on the box lol in game name ( takeing chances)tell me there

thx --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:216.54.192.28 .

Prophecies characters can travel between Tyria and Cantha after the complete the Mhenlo's Request quest, which is given by Firstwatch Sergio in Lion's Arch. Factions characters can travel between Tyria and Cantha after completing the Chaos in Kryta quest from Guardsman Chienpo in Kaineng Center. Prophecies characters typically reach Lion's Arch after completing the first six missions, although they don't need to complete any of them to reach Lion's Arch. Factions characters can reach Kaineng Center after completing the first two missions, it is reached by heading north from The Marketplace. -- Gordon Ecker 04:08, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Access key[edit]

--68.4.161.173 17:56, 20 July 2007 (UTC) what happens if your access key card doesn't have the access key?

The access key is probably behind a plastic strip covered with a silver-colored coating. The coating can be scratched off with a coin. If you actually have a defective access key card without an access key, you can try to return the game, or contact support. -- Gordon Ecker 19:10, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

richrichdaddy537 --168.215.108.188 19:24, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

This question is actually answered just slightly above on this page, but the short answer is: If you're in Cantha (Factions) take the quest in Kaineng Center, and if you're in Tyria (Prophecies) take the quest in Lion's Arch. - Tanetris 20:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Terminology[edit]

what does ifg mean? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:75.69.215.163 .

LFG stands for "Looking For (a) Group", and is also sometimes used inaccurately in place of GLFM ("Group Looking For More"). It basically means the person is looking for other players to group with for a mission, quest, hunting, etc - Tanetris 20:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

You can only have one backpack, but you can get a belt pouch or a bag. If you want to get rid of some items you can sell them to merchants or destroy them or drop them on the ground. Just be careful not to get rid of something important, like a quest item or your armor. :P - BeX iawtc 09:49, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
There's also storage. In Factions it can be accessed as soon as you reach Shing Jea Monastary, and in Nightfall it can be accessed as soon as you reach Kamadan. In Prophecies, you won't be able to access storage until after you finish the prelude. -- Gordon Ecker 10:06, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Either you router or your firewall is blocking the installer's access to the Internet. Can you access the internet from your web browser? If you can't, then there's a connection problem.

No access to hero (Koss)[edit]

My Koss hero is shaded and I cant access him for game play, why is this? Please explain. Arigon

Which game should I buy first?Or does it make a diffrence?[edit]

should I buy guildwars first or does it matter which I get first?

It doesn't matter which order you do the campaigns in, or if you do all of them at all. You do however need one of them (any of the three) to use the upcoming expansion (Eye of the North). As a matter of preference, I would suggest you do Prophecies first. Because it's quite slow paced and more towards learning the game system and exploring everything, it's not really much fun to come back to play after playing something as fast paced as Factions (because once you get used to blazing through things, slower storylines can be annoying to repeat ;) ). Plus you'll get to enjoy the newbie area there and meet Gwen, which is fun, as well as get lots of free skill unlocks from quests, and explore a wider variety of landscapes. :) I'm sure other people will have different opinions from me on that though. Nightfall and Prophecies tend to be tied as the peoples' favourites. - BeX iawtc 15:11, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Questions[edit]

hi, how do i self invite when im in a district and want to join in a mission and also how do i show my inventory and pay money for the runners? can you please help The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.33.117.94 (talk • contribs) 21:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC).

You can invite someone into your group (or yourself into another's group) by one of the following methods:
  • Select the player you want to invite and click "+" on the party window
  • Type the name of the player you want to invite into the textfield on the party window and hit enter (or the "+")
  • Type "/invite Playername" into the chat
Inventory shows up by clicking "I" or through the Menu (on the bottom left on the screen). And you can trade by selecting the player and clicking "trade". But I would recommend you to play the game instead of letting yourself rushed through the game. poke | talk 22:23, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Agreed with poke. If you're just starting out the game (from your questions), why do you want runners? Runners speed you through the game by skipping fights and quickly getting on to the next point in the storyline. Runners are mostly used by game veterans to quickly get their new characters past the early areas or to reach locations they're trying to get to quickly. -- ab.er.rant sig 01:01, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Markers and Energy Bars[edit]

Oh god please when are we going to get to see ally's,(maybe even foe's) energy bars in the party window and or target menu? I've been waiting for this addition to happen for years, especially after playing a bip necro. Yes I know I know you're supposed have 1hp and spam bip, but still...

I think this feature would be an AMAZING addition to the game, even more so for our Mesmer friends. Another thing I would like to see is some way to set "markers" on health/energy bars for the party window. Maybe at a certine percentage or a certine amount of health. i.e. Set a vertical marker on the bar at 50% health or more, and turn blue when the threshold has been passed(either over or under the marker, your choice).

For skills like,

I could go on and on, but I think you understand the point. Thanks for any replys. I fear this is the wrong place to ask this, so I would really appreciate if somebody could tell me where. --Lou-Saydus 22:36, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

This is a team game, so talk with your party! With an addition like this the game would be really boring. poke | talk 23:04, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Heroes and henchmen can read energy bars, monsters can probably read energy bars, I don't see why players shouldn't be able to. They can hide enemy bars in PvP. -- Gordon Ecker 23:22, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I understand this is a team game, but most team mates are less than willing to be.... cooperative >.> Unless of course if you're with a guild group. But honestly, how would you like to be able to run e-denail better on a mesmer and not waste your own energy when they are at 0 or very close to 0 energy. And people dont have to ping their heal for a monk to heal them. The monk simply stares at the party window and waits for a bar to drop. They could of course watch the battle and ...click... on the party member who needs health and then heal them, but even then they still get to see their health bar above their head.
On another note I would like to say that this is a feature that would energy denial a whole new game, thus making mesmers much, much more effective at that task. In finishing, I think it's just too much of a pain to call your energy while in combat, then the bip find that person on the party window and then bip them. And if you have more than one person calling for bip... well you can just forget it then. --Lou-Saydus 16:53, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

So... in other words, you want to change the BiP necro into something like a healing monk in PvE? Just watch bars all day and try to have fun watching the colors go left and right? BiP (and other skills) have durations. And you can guess when your BiP will end. Talk to your team members and figure out what they're doing so you can gauge and prioritize who needs the most energy. Talk to them and tell them to ping their energy level when they're starting to run low, not when they're out of energy. -- ab.er.rant sig 01:05, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

If they won't ping their energy, they don't deserve BiP, but I think it's more than a little unfair that monsters can read my Energy bar and I can't read theirs. -- Gordon Ecker 01:11, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Regarding your second point, I guess that it should be possible to make a mod adding that tick at 50%. --Xeeron 13:40, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

As a note, not everyone plays PvP and/or with other people that often. Please don't think of only them. Capcom 16:58, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

In my opinion, Having to find out the energy and health levels of allies/enemies by pinging/guessing it makes the game more challengeing, and adds to the stratagy. Changing that is just like giving someone a +100 helath handicap in an FPS, where no one else has it (so to speak). Also, this should have a talk page, it is an interesting enough matter.--Raph 22:11, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Never mind, apparently monsters can't read players' energy bars, I just tested it out and got Energy Surged repeatedly for 0 damage by Scythes of Chaos, so they don't have an unfair advantage. -- Gordon Ecker 22:47, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

No, you don't even need to own Prophecies, you just need at least one of the three campaigns.

If you're more than 10 hours completely idle, you do get kicked off for inactivity. If you're actually doing things, you get 24 hours. If you're getting kicked off after only 5 hours, then it's your internet connection, not the game, and you should be able to reconnect to get right back where you were, as long as it's within about 10 minutes. Hope that helps. - Tanetris 02:22, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

To dance you type /dance. --File:Rein Of Terror-sig.pngRein Of Terror (talk · contributions) 20:25, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Simply type in "/dance". You can also use "/dance *" which will delay the start until the next 5-second interval by the server's clock, so you can synchronize with other players. If you have the Collector's Edition of Factions or Nightfall, you can use "/dancenew" to perform the special dances of Assassins and Ritualists or Dervishes and Paragons, respectively.

If you're referring to item upgrade components, then no, only one of each of the types a weapon will accept will stack.

Current estimates (completely unofficial, from Upcoming changes and features) are 2009 or 2010. I doubt we'll hear anything more official until next year. As for the level cap, the devs have said it hasn't even been decided at this point, but two of the ideas they've been kicking around is a level 100 cap, and no cap at all.

"I didn't get" <-> "I did get" ? Where have you buyed the game? poke | talk 13:42, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Are you certain you didn't get one? As I recall the key is printed on a card (similar to a credit card) with a silver scratch off surface where the key is printed. If this is not present then you should most certainly return the box to the retailer you purchased it from as it is incomplete. What probably happened is the game was already returned by an unscrupulous person who took the card out to get a free key, the retailer probably sold it again thinking it was complete. (This happened to be 4 times with Ultima Online...) --Lemming64 13:45, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Most shops I know are very funny about games like guildwars. when I first bought guildwars from my local GAME store, they told me that I they would have nothing to do with any problems I may encounter. So even if there was a problem such as the key missing from the box. They would not have allowed me to take it back.

The closest skills I can think of are Thrill of Victory, Chilling Victory and Victorious Sweep, which are attack skills which have additional effects if the target has less Health than you, and Final Thrust, which is an attack skill which deals additional damage if the target is below 50% Health.

How to ferry guild members to la or kc?[edit]

I have a few 20's in NF and can talk to monk at docks but when we get there at lions gate he wont open the door. I've already been to la so is there a quest ...or how do ppl keep ferrying ppl over?-- --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:68.19.34.78 .

I've done it before without any problem with the gate not opening, but I've had the quest Terror in Tyria active, which is the quest to take you from Kamadan to LA. If you haven't claimed the reward for it yet, you can abandon and re-take it. --Valshia 22:41, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Raisu Palace[edit]

In raisu palace, i made it all the way to the room with the emporer. I killed everything in the room, and approaced emperor. Tried talking to everything and even walked around the room looking for a way to end it when goin up there wasn't enough. Is there anything wrong, or did i just miss something along the way? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:74.192.225.79 .

In additon to the listed mission objectives, it is also necessary to kill all eight "Ancient" bosses in order to complete the mission. -- Gordon Ecker 01:25, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Where did you get your copy? If it was a used copy then, unfortunately, it is likely that you were scammed. -- Gordon Ecker 08:39, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Kick/Leave-buttons[edit]

Why are they upside down? I keep leaving my group if I want to kick Tahlkora or Olias :'( - IH 22:13, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be easier to just look at the label of the button before clicking? -- ab.er.rant sig 01:52, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
Have the same problem.. It was the same when the character switch was introduced.. I was used to press F12+Enter as I'm now used to click the top most button to kick players/heroes ;) poke | talk 11:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
If you've clikced the upper button for about 2 years to kick henchies it's not so easy to get rid of the habit :D - IH 14:31, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

frost gate bonus[edit]

ive asked alot of ppl and i cant find anyone who knows the frost gate's bonus for prophecies. i am new to the game, ive been playing for a month, and i am not sure where it is either, can you help? --75.68.64.131 12:48, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

The Frost Gate. You have to go left in the cave with the Dryders and get the dwarf, and then lead him to a catapult that is down a side path after the cave (if he dies the bonus will fail). Once he gets to the catapult he explodes a door and you follow that path to get a book, take the book back to him and it's done. - BeX iawtc 12:50, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Bonus items[edit]

Have added bonus item key (included with GW Prophecies) but am unable to see any items. I am using an existing character in NF, have typed in chat, "/bonusitems". Get a message of various items now being available, but, when I go into "I", no bonus items are seen. Am I missing something? Do I need to travel to Prophecies and redo "/bonusitems" from there? Is there a bug with system? TVM for any help. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:SaltyOldSeaDog .

You need to use /bonus instead of /bonusitems. --Xeeron 16:34, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Cheers for that, works fine now. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:SaltyOldSeaDog .

You need to use the "Ask a question" form at www.guildwars.com/support. See also PlayNC Support - Reporting violations --SnogratUser Snograt signature.png 19:40, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I can't remember anything...[edit]

I can't remember anything about my account... Like the username, password, or access code... Is there anyway you can help? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:208.126.17.237 .

Have you checked your email addresses for the confirmation email? - BeX iawtc 07:14, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
If it helps, the email address you used to sign up is your username. -- Gordon Ecker 07:27, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
And you might have had ArenaNet promotional emails sent to the address linked to your account, unless you opted out of it. - BeX iawtc 09:21, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
You only have a fixed number of email addresses you use right? Just install the game client and try every single combination of all your email addresses and all your possible passwords. One of them should hit :) unless... you've really totally forgotten everything... in which case, even Anet support won't be able to help you... -- ab.er.rant sig 10:45, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
