Hi everyone, first post on the Forums here so be sure to tell me if anything is off with my post
I just started playing GW2 recently and so far I'm having a lot of fun, I quit FF14 a few months back and this feels way better, I'm managing on my own too, and when I need help with something the wiki or a video tends to help.
But there's a few things I'm still unsure about, classes, gathering, RP, mounts, etc, I'll let you see below
1. Whats the quickest way to get decent gear at level 80? I'm leveling up super fast, and I'll be level 80 before I even finish the main story at this rate
(If this is a case of "depends on build", then idk what build I'll end up going with at endgame, probably something with Bladesworn cause gun katana go brrrrrrrrr)
2. Warrior is my first class, and the one I'm playing, but doing my research, I see that base Warrior is supposedly uber trash tier, is its specializations any different? They say Bladesworm is good, is Warrior viable in end game content? What about open world? PvP?
3. What about Ele? I love using the Natural Elements as magick in games, but I don't know anything about Ele other then it's a bit complicated
4. Is gathering meant to be hellish? Or am I doing something wrong? Coming from FF14, it was a slog, but it was consistent, but here, I feel like I need to spend a ton of time looking in random spots for nodes that give me almost nothing.
5. How difficult are dungeons? And where can I find guides for them and other content? I probably need a guide given its years old content and I don't wanna be THAT guy
6. Is there any way to fast track myself to getting a mount or am I stuck waiting till the expacs? I wanna complete the main map so I can get the items necessary for making Legendary Weapons, and while I wouldn't call walking about a slog, having tried the Roller Beatle rentals it seems SOOOOOOOOOOO much better
7. How on God's Green Earth do I get a decent back item while leveling? I've been stuck with this dinky +1 power one for ages, I'm level 60 iirc, story is at level 30, close to entering the first dungeon
And last, and def least,
8. What's RP like in GW2? It's always been something I've been interested in but I've always got cold feet when I wanna jump in, and coming from FF14, it all just seemed like it was all E RP back there, so I never bothered. Is it all just a bunch of creepy BS in GW2 or is it something more substantial?
yeeeeeeeeah, quite a lot to ask, just I wanna make sure I know what's up, you know?
