I agree. This is one of the main reasons that GW2 became my primary game.

I use alts for crafting and as extra storage. I started using a few as festival players. Of course I have my weekly key run alt. And when I have time to kill waiting for the daily reset and don't have other stuff to do, I take my lower-levels out and do map completion/leveling with them. (Usually that turns into an exercise of remembering how to play their class) . 🙂 One thing I enjoy about running the story on different characters is that the dialog you get changes sometimes depending on their race or class. Just recently, the conversations I heard in passing among the olmakhan we

This is my opinion too. I gather and save everything. I craft ascended gear. I sell when I need gold for gems or a collection-related purchase.

Definitely true. Get familiar with the buff animations, so you know when it's safe to charge right in with everyone else.

I'm so glad that you worked it out and can start playing now. 🙂 (I have an asura druid of my own so I know you're in for a treat!)

Lots of people talking about this in chat tonight. It seems to clear up for everyone after a bit. I had it for a while and then it was back to normal. Weird!

Having just finished the Return to Sandswept Isles story, I think your idea for a Charr Druid sounds like a character who would eventually be drawn to the Olmakhan. It really seems like a perfect fit to me. That could be a long-term goal for you in terms of RP. They will find their tribe in the end. 🙂 That leaves you with an Asura guardian, which I think brings up a lot of possibilities for non-conformity. Maybe starting an independent College of Holistics or something. Just my two cents. I love all the thought you've put into this.

I just got this for the first time using Aurene's port to Sandswept Isles in Eye of the North.

Welcome! We are glad to have you here with us! ☺️

In my case, this is my first GW2 beta, but in all the others I've been in for other games, it was as vilkanor described...you had to sign an NDA, you had to pre-purchase the expansion, it was a separate client and also had a private forum. IF you were lucky enough to get an invite, that is. I agree that the way GW2 is handling it makes it much more likely for people to try it out.

All the betas I've been in before have been on separate, limited-access servers. Taking these beta characters out in the existing world is something I've not seen before, and I'm really looking forward to trying them!

Awesome! 😊

They sure do!

OP I am 64 and had a lot of trouble doing it too. I knew what had to be done, but for me trying to aim at the target with the special action key while floating was a royal PITA. As Harfang said above, it was the camera controls that made it so hard for me. I just kept at it till I got it. I knew going in that it was going to be a long slog so I took a break for a while before starting it this evening. Good luck to you, I hope you find a group. Standing near the entrance area and asking if anyone wants to party up for it is good advice, I've seen people doing that o

The credit union I belong to has a refillable card that processes just like a regular credit card, with your name and address associated with it. It's not like a pre-paid one that some places don't accept. I use it for purchases like this now after having the same issue with Digital River saving credit card info against my wishes for a different MMO I used to play.
