Guild Wars 2

Hoping for a roll back (fingers crossed). Checking the forums and it looks like they should be able to do it.

Problem is you only get 1 roll back per account, and if you got something nice recently, you might lose it in the rollback.

Once you get the rollback, you need to pray you don't get compromised again. You need to find out how your account was compromised in the first place and prevent it from occuring again.

I think my home e-mail address was compromised. Changed all my passwords anyway just in case. The one rollback seems a bit severe considering how long the gave could be going for.
 
Just a quick question, i am starting this again with my bro.

Does it matter that i have missed loads, must have played this game about a year ago lol


I don't think so, the only real things you have missed are the various living stories - so in real terms a few small temporary dungeons and maybe a title or two plus weapon / armor skins.

you can still do all the regular dungeons, go into fractals, WvW etc

its very easy to get full exotic and that will be enough to get you through most if not all content, and it's pretty easy if a little time consuming to get all ascended trinkets too.
 
I logged on this afternoon, and I have totaly forgotten how to play this game. lol

Not that I knew how to play in the first place.
:D Lol, I get that.

Mind you I'm on a break now - even with the current LS the game just doesn't hold my interest.

Will probably drift back in 6 months to a year, once some serious feature patches have been rolled out - new class mechanics and stuff.
 
From the email..

"Regarding your items and characters, we often are able to restore compromised accounts. You should know, however, that an account restoration will result in the loss of any progress you've made since regaining access to your account. If we restore your account, it will be returned to its state on December 10th, 2012. Achievements, accomplishments, and items acquired since regaining access to your account will be lost, but you will regain the items and gold that were taken in the compromise. In addition, characters that were deleted during the compromise incident also will be restored. Please note that we are unable to recover any losses you may have suffered in your guild or on the trading post."

I'll see what I get back. At that time I think I had 2 level 80's fairly well equipped.

I take it you haven't played much recently as that's quite a way away. Normally it's within a week of the compromise and not 15 months.

You've also missed the 2 home instance mining nodes (Watchwork Sprokets, and Quartz), so if you need either of those items you'd have to goto the TP instead of mining them.

Easiest way to get exotic's is to just zerg in Edge Of the Mists, and buy them with Badges of Honour which drop plenty in EotM. Ascended trinkets require laurels though, so a fair amount of dailies are required for them. That is unless you're lucky enough to get them in a rank up chest, which does happen (but not to me).

Started playing again last October after a bit of a break. They state that they have checked the logs and reckon my account was compromised December 2012 (news to me) hence the rollback date. I have requested a more recent date.
 
I remember I got drunk one night and spent some money on Ebay to get 1 Million Plat on GW1, is that still a lot of money these days?

Can I carry that money over to GW2?
 
I just can't into this game for more than a few weeks before the repetitive boredom of end game sets in, and I've tried on a number of occasions. I loved the original Guild Wars but other than art direction and the 1-80 levelling experience there is just nothing here for a PvE player that has any real depth.

The base game has so much potential but 18 months after release I'd argue that this game has been all but abandoned for any major game development, and before anyone mentions Living Story if you believe that is good content there is nothing to discuss. :p

Unfortunately not.

If you have an NCSoft account, login and see if there are additional authorised locations that are not yours, if so remove them.

When my account was compromised, it was via the NCSoft account. They somehow managed to access that, and then changed all my passwords. After that, I've abandoned the affected account and I'm now using one that has no links to NCSoft.

Now if only I could find an unused GW1 Complete Edition...

Thing is, Anet actually has more people working for them now (over 350 at the last count), than before GW2 was released. I'm personally hoping there is an expansion in the works and that they're just being super quiet about it.

Will look into that.

Thanks very much.

I highly doubt there'll be an expansion within the next year.

Most of the new people have been hired to get the Chinese version of GW2 launched.

They are coming in at the end of LS Season 1, and there'd be uproar if they released the game and then instantly released an expansion.

I personally think we'll get LS Season 2, then an expansion, let the Chinese have a year to settle in.
