Hey everyone! I just got a new gaming laptop and I’m thinking about diving into Guild Wars 2. My gaming history is a bit random—I’ve enjoyed games like Elden Ring, Elder Scrolls, and used to play Monster Hunter. What are some of the benefits of starting Guild Wars 2? And do you have any tips or tricks for a newbie like me? As this is my first post, I really appreciate any help! Thanks!

Definitely take it slow at first; the amount of content can be overwhelming. Remember that race choice is mostly for roleplaying—everyone ends up with similar experiences after a while. Play whatever class you enjoy; they’re all balanced. Also, explore every part of the map! You can do PVE, PVP, and World vs. World at any level, so jump in wherever you feel like it! And don’t forget to look for sales on the gem store for upgrades!
As a fellow Elder Scrolls fan, you’ll likely find nostalgia in the music and the world! I recommend trying the Warrior class if you’re into melee combat; it’s great for dodging and has a strong brawling style. Get some useful tools like salvaging kits to keep your inventory clean. Just explore and have fun—there’s a lot to do and see! PVP and WvW are exciting, and don’t hesitate to try different activities.
There’s so much to love about Guild Wars 2! The game has tons of content and the storyline is pretty engaging, especially as you progress. The world is stunning and encourages exploration. Plus, you don’t need to pay a subscription, and the community is really friendly! For tips, don’t rush straight to max level—take your time with the personal story and check out the Living World content if you can. Set your goals as you go along; it’s all about enjoying the journey!
Great to know! I loved all the little things in Oblivion, so I’ll definitely take my time exploring.
