I finally got around to playing this game more...how do I join this guild?

Do I just whipser in game to one of the members and they invite me?

If they invite one of my characters, does it apply to the other 3 chars I have?
 
I dropped my old guild, please add me so I'm not capeless! 😛

Char: Octavian X (that's the one I've been playing lately... Prince Octavian is my higher level char.)
 
Jonny Duke and I have two guilds together, but we really aren't doing much with them. I'll see if he wants to drop one and merge with you guys.

I'm happy to help with whatever until then.

well, if people want, i'll start a second ATOT guild... might be fun actually. We can have guild battles between the two 🙂
 
Quoth the Raven, "I'm still here, yo"

You're all invited now.
I just had crazy midterms and when I had a chance I was playing GW.
To anyone else that doesn't get a response on AT, just look for me in game. Raven Torchstone. I typically play nights unless asked to play at a different time.
 
Yeah, though I won't be playing for another 2 weeks. Once finals are over then I can put in more time. I'll be focusing on Factions when I start up again, but I can always swing back to help people out...or just load up multiple accounts to lend a hand.
 
Cool.. Ill be getting factions aswell right off the bat.. so maybe if you start a new character with one of the new jobs... you can show me how to play and whats going on with that game.

I had about 200 days playtime in FFXI over a 3.5year period (just quit recently) So that is what I am used to with online games... 36 people working to take down a monster that takes 2-5 hours to kill. or partying with 6 people to level... (grind grind grind -.-😉 and fighting over monsters ect with other parties...

the thing that attracts me to guildwars is the fact that you can hire henchmen to fill out party rolls... (recalls waiting sometimes 4 hours for a party as a lvl 75 summoner on ffxi...while getting one as 75blm in 3 minutes... always)

So if you have trouble finding a healer...or a tank...you can just hire a henchman and they work well for that right?

anyway... ill be getting the game in a couple days and then if i like it ill get the expansion... (no monthly fee = AWESOMENESS.. think about how much I spent on FFXI over 3 years...i could have bought...a car...a kick ass computer...a life....a wardrobe...a hooker and some cocain...a bible....)

can you recommend a good character job combination?


in ffxi you have a main job and a subjob... and usually your limited to only 2 subjob choices to be effective...in a conventional sense..so out of mnk war blm whm rdm rng bst nin brd drk pld thf drg sam smn, only blm/whm or blm/rdm was effective... whm/blm or whm/smn was only effective... war/nin was a must usually with war/thf occasionaly... mnk/war or mnk/thf or mnk/nin ect ect ect.... some combinations just did not work at all... like...

thf/blm or rng/whm or whm/war... (though i pulled the whm/nin on an elvaan for about 10 levels...it was pretty funny..but extremely hard to balance...and not usable at higher levels at all...) or rdm/bst ect ect ect

are the jobs balanced? can you use any 2 jobs with each other and through skill reach a reasonable effectiveness in combat? (if you were a warrior/blackmage in ffxi you wouldn't be able to party at all let alone even have a chance to be affective... (no one would even ask you)

also what jobs are on the.. "dont bother" list... such as the infamous Dragoon in FFXI? (drg just wasnt good at anything...at all...so damn sad and everyone knew it except like 5 people who were just in denial because they spent a year leveling it...)

thnx~ >.>
 
Nice to hear you'll be joining us! By the way, Factions is not really an expansion in the traditional sense. What I mean is that you don't have to have the original to play Factions. It is its own separate game. So you can buy whichever one you want.

Just let me know when you get it and tell me your character's name so I can add you.
 
Well, as soon as I get back from a 3 week stint in Germany I'll bring my GF and I into the guild. We are tired of not belonging to an active guilds and playing with some real morons when it comes to getting through the tougher missions.

We're both level 20's with a couple level ~15's to boot. My lvl 15 healer/prot monk is a great change from my geo ele. Although being a support geo (works great in PvE with a good monk, wards are awesome) is a lot different than being a nuker, much closer to monkishness that I find more fun. Plus, it takes more skill to be a good geomancer vs casting immoliate+fireball+meteor shower until you are blue in the face like you do as a nuker.

If you like to kill stuff be a mesmer or ele, if you like to be popular and required be a monk, if you like just fighting to fight be a warrior. The necro and mesmers are very nice but require a tight build to be really effective, a monk, ele, or warrior are all more forgiving as far as builds go IMHO.

See you all later 🙂

*Won't be getting factions for a while. We still have at least 40 hours left on the main quest! Just got to the shiverpeaks....
 
When does everyone usually play? I'm in CA and would like to run a few Factions missions with you guys. I havent played Factions yet or GW for a little bit, but I have a fully loaded lvl 20 War and Ranger and I play them both pretty well. I'm already in a Guild, but we are pretty inactive.

I'll try to get on tonight. Feel free to add me to your friends list and mssg me if you need a tank or a barrager, etc.
