About Me[edit]

I started playing Guild Wars in the later part of the Prophecies beta. My first character was a warrior I started day one, April 28th 2005, but my mesmer took over as my main character. GW has been an obsession. I'm not rich. I'm not 1337. but I'm definitely obsessed. :-)

GW Moments[edit]

Top 10 Best Moments
10. Achieved first max title. Man, that takes a lot of work! I think I'm most proud of the Cartography titles. Can't cheat your way out of those ones. :-)
9. Bought first Elite Armor -- Knoble (for mesmer). I loved that dress!!
8. Sorrows Furnace -- that was such a fun update. Our first time beating it was with some new guild recruits from Singapore. They were awesome!
7. Beat FoW with new guildies. Between computer crashes and people having to leave, we ended up having only 4 (I think) players left at the end -- and we did it!
6. Beat Tombs with guild for the first time -- this was before the HM / NM update. We became Tombs regulars.
5. PAX 2007 -- We didn't really participate much at the booth, but we got to meet Gaile Gray and I won an early pass to the ANET party. Most importantly, I got the mini pet! lol
4. Update: Ability to re-distribute skill points F-T-W! (and many other awesome updates)
3. Playing with my first guildies.
2. The last beta before the release. I was so sad and so happy. I knew GW was coming soon. That night before the servers shut off there was a HUGE naked dance party in Ascalon around the bonfire. Everyone was type-singing "It's the end of the world as we know it!"
1. April 28th 2005 -- I was so excited to finally be playing and to know I could just keep going. GW was my first experience with an MMO. My husband and I had played some of the betas. I had one of the GW backgrounds on my PC -- Barradin's Estate. Every time I looked at that picture, I felt like I was looking at a vacation photo. I couldn't wait to go back! We played Pre-searing for a month before we went on in the game! :-) Experiencing it all with my husband has been the height of it all.
Top 10 Worst Moments
10. Any one of the times I've gone out, fought my way to a boss, killed him and then remembered I either forgot my cap sig or forgot to switch secondary profession for that cap.
9. Sold a Black Dye to regular merchant for 1g by accident...suck
8. Crafted first full set of armor (full lvl -- but not elite) only to find I didn't like it.
7. First death on first attempt at survivor.
6. Realized I didn't know how to play Mesmer. I thought I was all that -- being the only mesmer in our small guild at the time. Then I met a 1337 and realized I didn't have a clue how to play. lol Had to re-think some things.
5. First burn-out on GW. Didn't know how to handle my not feeling like logging in.
4. I was playing healing monk for the guild as we tried Tombs. We made it to the 3rd lvl for the first time and I accidentally closed Guild Wars...this was before the reconnect update. Not cool.
3. Internet connection on the fritz for about a month -- got booted off every 10 minutes or so...not a happy camper.
2. I had been debating for weeks on whether or not to get the special edition of Factions. I had bought the regular copy of Prophecies, but ended up buying the Collector edition for the glowy hands. I finally decided to just get the regular version of Factions since the CE was being delayed at the stores. Shortly after we bought it, Anet annouced an consolation gift for all the late CE's -- a mini Kuunavang. I was majorly into Eragon at the time...I think I almost cried at not getting a dragon. (My wonderful husband bought me a Kunnie though, and I eventually got the CE -- so tears for nothing. lol)
1. Falling out with first Guild. Found out I need to work on social skills. lol (but in all fairness, it wasn't just me with the issue!)
