In all honesty, I can’t recommend choosing necromancer as your primary class in
most cases. Necromancers look cool, and a lot of people want to be that tall

Keep in mind that part of the beauty of Guild Wars is finding play styles that
suit you.  There is no uber class combination or attribute distribution that
you need to go into in order to be worth something as a player.  To do that,
you need practice, knowledge, cooperation with your group and finally a little
patience with […]

The Mesmer is a class that is unique to the world of Guild Wars.  Although it
borrows from classic elements of Illusion and Manipulation Magic in other
fantasy genres, the Mesmer class as a whole is a subtle combination of magic as

Domination Magic spells are the staple spells used by most Mesmers to interrupt
and directly damage opponents.  With a few exceptions, the spells in the

tank with just your armor (although skills such as Physical Resistance can give
you a surprising […]

City. Also, one can salvage Fur Squares from armor pieces and hides using an
Expert Salvage Kit with limited success depending on the value of the armor.
More expensive armors are more likely to give […]

The results are in at last! After indulging in a few cookies and hot chocolate to get into the spirit of things, the judges poured through thousands of submissions (apparently snowmen are melting everywhere) and emerged with definite winners in hand! We sifted through a number of well orchestrated, creative screenshots and tantalizing confections, but […]
