Business as usual then, Clav.

[Brant_96]

Good. It's all fireballs and meteors on my part.

Sounds good

[Dr.Minky]

Also, there are going to be 'guild vaults', does anyone know much about them?

Yes there is, they hold items, gold etc for the guild and you can upgrade them and shizz which is pretty cool.

[Dr.Minky]

I wonder how they'll work.. Maybe only certain members have access to the vaults or something, it'd have to be done well or people could just take things.. Nukem was thinking of setting up a guild economy type thing anyway, where we can pool resources for certain things and give away certain items we dont want that other members might need, stuff like that. Could be handy.

Sounds good. But it'll be rather annoying if the vault use isn't limited to certain people.

Depending on the particle effects in future versions I might play a Sylvari elementalist as my main character. It's what I really want to play, but I can't play a tree-based character casting fire

[Dr.Minky]

Whats stupid is, the humans elite ability turns them into a giant tree.... Isnt that stupid? considering that there is a plant race and humans arent connected to it in any way

[Brant_96]

Kind of awesome though

[Luke Nukem]

Prodigal Economy.

The Idea for this is that I am going to be running so called advanced databases that will control the flow of income that the guild produces so that we can start funding bigger schemes such as...

- Capes

- Guild halls ( not yet explained to the full content )

- What ever else involves money to influence the guild.

Keep in mind I do not watch Guild Wars 2 videos seeing as it will ruin it for me. It's the only game I have not watched a video for or read into, but I will start reading into the baking system and expense system or the rare material guide. Also each member might have to donate a little per week to keep the guild running or chip in to buy things for the guild like we had to on GW 1. ( not saying it will be like GW1 )

Any income will be logged into my database and also monitored with frequent checks to keep a fresh flow of valuable stock flowing, so that we can keep building and become a strong power to be reckoned with.

The guild banks might be like the ones in WoW where the guild masters can set who accesses certain parts of it.

I don't want to take control of the banks, but just keep a pot that helps fund days out with the guild to Alton Towers etc...

On a more serious note. I would like to take charge of a fixed income to help fund serious things or to help build new people up that haven't been able to get the game early.

Also, the running system which involves running weak players to different towns or cities. We will be doing running to places for free in the guild as it would be a good thing to do, but we can set up players in the guild that sit in towns and do running schemes for non guild players. ( this could get new players into the guild, but also bring in some $$$ )

Hmmmm, keep weak weapons that you find for lower levels also so we can equip them at early stages, but also sell them if you're as poor as the peasants.

[Brant_96]

That sounds good Nukem, I seriously can't wait to get this game :3 are you gonna get the limited edition?

[Luke Nukem]

The £40 version is good enough for me to be honest it still does the same but £80 less for some shitty statue that collects dust. The collects edition just for collecting dust.

[The Lazy Peon]

Personally I'm getting the collectors edition, because I enjoy that type of thing.

Guild banks will probably work the same as WoWs: Permissions can be set by officers/ the leader as to what rank can access/ deposit what. Simplicity will probably be the name of the game in this side of GWII

[Brant_96]

I'll be getting the deluxe one (the one in the middle) purely because I don't want to dish put £120 on a statue :/

[The Lazy Peon]

There's where we differ, friend

Anyway, what do you guys think about the world? Does it look cool?

[Brant_96]

The fact that a third of it is underwater is gonna be epic. Other than that, I don't know much about the new Tyria.

[Luke Nukem]

I am more of an old Ascalon fan which consisted of desolate waste lands after the char war. I like wastelands depending on what the scenery is like otherwise I would go with the sheer cliffs of the Nightfall expansion pack. Like I said I haven't watched any videos so I will make my mind up when I buy the game

[Brant_96]

Was Nightfall your favourite expansion then? It was sure was mine

[Darkstar]

Im tempted to go for a Norn Ranger or Elementalist personally, but we shall see.

[Luke Nukem]

I would say Factions for the Assassin class, but Nightfall for the story line and the unlock of new classes.

[Brant_96]

I might just re install Guild wars 1, I got slightly bored of it as none of my friends played it so I stopped playing. But yeah, factions was pretty awesome

[Dr.Minky]

The world looks amazing, they've got the aesthetics spot on

The norn are pretty neat Darkstar, I like their elite abilities (just because they look cool)
