Guild Wars Factions Weekend

This is a video from quite a while ago - before Guild Wars: Factions came out. This is footage from the weekend Arena Net released it for beta testing. I made a hex-heavy Necromancer to screw over the millions of idiot Assassins rolled that weekend. Maybe not the greatest gameplay/action (When I taped that footage I was not planning to make a vid.) but hopefully it'll take you back.

is tis pvp

[ayanamij]

@goganj1 Yes.

[masterfrylok]

what is a "build"?

[ayanamij]

A build is a distribution of attribute points and a selection of skills that define how your character functions in gameplay. The play makes a build whose skills have good synergy to maximize versatility, power, and teamwork. In this case, my build was designed to make physical attackers miss, gain power from them missing, and deal damage to them every time they attacked. It also had defense against casters. Mainly this build was anti-Assassin because they double attack, punishing them doubly.

maybe a little too descriptive?

[ayanamij]

It's hard to explain, maybe you could give it a try. :)

[MaffBridges]

Haha, yes pacifism warrior.

Yes actually ... this was before Factions came out. ANet did a weekend preview of the Factions content as a beta. Everyone in RA rolled a Sin pretty much to see what the new classes were like. So I just took an anti-melee hex Necro.
