Guild Wars question.

[DangerAardvark]

So Tabula Rasa's becoming a bit too time consuming for a game that may very well be dead in a month. It's broken in so many ways, it's actually a bit comedic.

So, I'm looking to give Guild Wars a go. I know you can create a level 20 PVP character right off the bat, or I can level one. What I want to know is, what's the difference in the end? Is a manually leveled character more powerful? Have more skills? Better equipment?

The only difference is you can PvE with him.

Also, get more custom armor, move around, participate in the market and the game itself.

PVP chars are meant for noobs to get in pvp easily, and for experts that need to remake their chars constantly.

Well, you have 4 characters available. Why not build one of each and tell us?
Or, try the GW official forums. Those guys play a hundred hours a week and probably know more than we do.
There arent too many Guild Wars fans here at anandtech.
We tried to make an official AT Guild once but I dont think it worked out too well. Many hardcore guys dont consider GW to be a true MMO.

GW is the only true MMO =)

(I used to play GW like, 70+ hours a week in a rank 8 guild)
