I don't know about server quality in Europe but you can transfer for free and once per every 24 hours at the moment. But you cannot transfer to a full server. So if there is a server you really want to go to but is full, you'll have to try it at an off-peak time.

All of your characters will be on the same server, it is account based not character based.

Also, when they enable guesting, you'll be able to do everything except PvP (maybe even only WvWvW, not sure about sPvP) on another server if you'd like.

**Socram** · 2012-10-23, 08:37 AM

You can currently join the Heart of the Mists of the world you switched to; I guess the same will work with guesting. The sPvP games themselves (including tournaments) are not world-specific to begin with, and you can form a group with players of all worlds in your region.

Thank you all for your replies.

**Cheguto** · 2012-11-11, 09:24 PM

Thanks, good info!

From previous experience, is Guild Wars 2 likely to go on sale on or before Christmas? $60 is just too much for me currently, but $30 or $40 might be affordable.

**Kelesti** · 2012-11-18, 05:32 PM

Not likely. It probably won't drop in price until after an expansion or two are sold, and they'll come in a bundle of sorts.

**ecthrund** · 2012-11-18, 06:36 PM

It sucks for me, but I guess the game is just too new for a sale. Thanks for the quick reply

**runelordGW2** · 2012-12-21, 10:21 AM

How many fkxingh times u need to post until u can post a damn link. This is absurd.

Which dungeons should I be looking to do as a freshly dinged 80? Which can be pugged? Specifically I have an interest in the Ascalonian Greatsword from Ascalonian Catatombs but I'm unsure about just what I can and can't do just yet as a fresh 80. Will I need to do Story mode Catatombs first? Is it soloable?

**Doozerjun** · 2013-01-06, 10:20 PM

No dungeon is soloable, you might be able to two or three man some of the story mode dungeons. For explorables, as long as someone in your group has completed the story mode part of that dungeon then you can enter the explorable. If you are interested in the ghastly weapons then just do the Ascalon Catacombs explorables, it's a fairly popular one so you shouldn't have any trouble getting a group for it, being a fresh level 80 is no issue as long as you know how to play smart.

I remember there were 2 reddit threads where an Elementalist solo'd Sorrow's Furnace Ex.

Seems slow, but possible.

In beta my brother in law and I duo'd ACs and ACx a couple of time. Warrior/Mesmer and Engineer/Elementalist were are classes on two occasions each.

How is the Community when it comes to new players doing the dungeon for a first time? Do they shun and kick you for being inexperienced/unaware of boss abilities at the start? I read somewhere that Warriors are kicked when they have a Greatsword on and expect you to "Tank"

The same as every other MMO outside of like, Wizard 101 or Toon Town.

How is Wizard 101 and Toon Town diffident?
Never played them and I guess I could assume the later is for a younger cowered. I got some family who plays Wizards. But I have never cared to ask.

Would I get kicked for using a Greatsword?

The likelihood of having a penis or swastika drawn in chat/on mini map is dramatically lower.

No.

Another solo dungeon runner: http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/c...h_path_2_solo/

It definitely is possible to solo GW2's dungeons.

**MrHage** · 2013-01-17, 10:37 PM

This post gave a lot of information about this game that i didn't know...now i want to play it!

**Dassen** · 2013-02-09, 11:25 AM
