    Took a stroll through the salad bar that is The Grove, home to the Sylvari.

    (Click to Enlarge)

    I really think for anyone stuck on the fence about ESO they should check out this game.

    heh yeah, though Divinity's Reach was confusing as heck for me the first time, I was wondering around the marker the guard had made for me where the bank was only, i knew it was on the second floor only i couldn't find the door.....the ramp leading to the building started halfway down the street, that place is huuuuuge.

    Beside the ramps they have two "beam me up Scotty" elevators at the base of every "spoke" to travel between the floors.

    I love the central garden. I almost always end (and start) my play session overthere.

    lol yeah after running around the building post for a good 10 minutes my brother pointed out both the ramps and the elevators, i really felt like a noob but after that I was zipping around the whole city collecting all the markers its was great fun.

    I've worked Sonya up to Level 20 now. Leveling goes quite fast though, maybe even too fast (causes boredom at the end?)

    During this course she mostly relies on her twohander. With Rush, Whirlwind and Bull's Charge she rushes across the field, hacking and slashing everthing on her way with Swing and Hunderd bladesKicking all around (Kick is still my favo skill ), while Dodging incoming attacks. More than ones I lost her in the melee and let her dodge just to show herself or to get her out of danger when the health circle starts to drop rapidly. Unbelievable how fast even I can send a char across the screen .

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The looks of her armour is incleasing during leveling up. It starts to look a bit more stylish now.

    nice!

    hmm I guess the leveling really depends on what your doing, though it does slow down a bit the higher you go.

    warriors are awesome, mine clears the field with dual swords he is like a mini tornado :D

    I've found that karma vendors have some really detailed pieces, could be worth having a look there.
     don't forget to complete maps as you get transmute tokens for rewards and that lets you hold onto looks you like.

    The original Guild Wars' level cap was at 20. I hate it.

    I have been thinking of getting this game I have a friend who has it and said he regrets getting it because its to complex to be fun but it looked good so I want a second opinion.

    Last night I encountered a weird, or better said ridiculous feature. When the armour of your char is totally worn down, it disappears . Suddenly your char is fighting in her undies ! I almost fell from my chair!

    I immediately beamed her to a repair NPC to make her armour reappear.

    Really a class act .

    Hahaha ^^ I know. It is normal for these games, not sure if it was for WoW but I think it was. Or it was normal for GW1 at least! It makes sense, if your clothes are broken you can't wear them xD

    It wasn't so in WoW. There it's shown with a figure on screen which shows in yellow  the damaged parts or in red the broken ones. I don't know about other mmo's, though it looks like female armour in some of them (Tera, Lineage) is permanently broken .

    I'll keep a closer eye on the armor damage in the future to save her for more ebarrassment . It did look silly, really .

    Btw, why can't you wear broken clothes? Laces, leather strips or safety-pins wonders .
