I forsee a problem.... 

When 'most' of the people who've played the origional guild wars get factions, it seems they will be making an assasin or a ritualist. This means that for the first few weeks of factions, it will be virtually impossible for these players to get in a human party, as there will be so many other A or Rt players to choose from.

The solution to this problem is to make a canthan character of another class, like a monk or elementalist, OR bring one of your old prophecies characters to cantha, run through the stroyline so you get the missions and look cool in your tyrian 15k armour and wait a few weeks to make that A / Rt you so desperately want

If you do this, you'll be more favourable to get in the party you want, as you aren't just another assasin or ritualist.


So KEEP FACTIONS ALIVE by not everyone making the new professions....yet.

Edited: random sentences where i inserted something and forgot about them..lol.

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

I agree 100%, and I have always beleived that. I play to make one of the new classes once the new has worn off. I play to take my Monk to Canthia first, as I think she will be highly needed.

Well the point of everyone getting Gw Factions is to create a RT or A.. so no matter how you plee or cry you will see alot of RT and A's, There is no way around it so DEAL with it!

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

Theres probably always going to be more assassins then anything else. So unless you are doing simething as a guild it will probably be hard to get into a group as a assassin. It might be a bit easier for ritualists once they have unlocked some of the good sprits/ restoration magic skills.

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

I'll definatly be making a ritualist or an assassin..mostly for PvP unlocks though.. but my monk, warrior, and ranger will also be taken to cantha for some non-farming fun.

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

Frankly i dont plan on creating either, i personally wasnt impressed with either of the new characters during the preview weekend event. Im know that there both going to have there own benefits, but im not at all interested on being either, not as a primary, or secondary. I will be getting factions however because i did like the new area's, creatures and so forth. Anther thing is that once Factions does get released, everyone is really going to be able to point out who the hardcore naruto fans are...lol. Every assassin is going to practicly look the same, and have a name that has something to do from naruto. Im not being hypothetical either, i seen in during the weekend event and im absolutely positive that i am going to see it again.lol

Originality FTW!!!

I'm sure plenty of people will bring their original characteres into the prophecies campaign as well.. I don't think it will be thaat bad. Remember the FPE? thats was fine...

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

First I thought I would make an assassin primary because I like melee chars, and not becos Im some anime fanboy.

But after 2 events I decided not to make a primary assassin.

Why? Because assassin armors s@#@k big time.

Im prolly makin a Ne/Ass or Ne/Rit. Still dont know.

In general...slight increase then level off

Some items will increase, others will decrease but after a few weeks they will level out and continue to decrease slowly for GWP items until they level off there too.

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

initially, you will see a overabundance of assassins and rituatlists - because it's the new thing.

After about a month I'd say though, you're going to see the classes level off, and everything settle back in to a more or less normal distribution.

I'm probably going to make a rit and assassin off the bat, but only for the purposes of unlocking items.

I am also going to be bringing my three pve chars over to cantha to play around over there. I need something other to do than farming.

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

I'm thinking of making a monk as my first in factions, to try something new. Also because there can never be enough monks in game.

I agree with what others have said, that the number of each profession will level out fairly quickly, as people experiment. Remember, for a while we saw many more W/Mo than W/X but people began experimenting and the number of W/X increased.



Rage the Berserk-lvl 20 War/X
Smiley the Crazed-lvl 20 E/R
Fear the Deranged-lvl 20 Me/Mo
Angry the Insane-lvl 20 Mo/Rt
Trust the Wise-lvl 20 A/N
Hate the Righteous-lvl 20 D/E

RE: I forsee a problem.... 

I will tragically become one of the many who make an assassin and ritualist right off the bat. I have all 4 of my lvl 20's in Prophecies and I am itching for new character options. Undoubtlty though, I am going to be driven insane by being unable to find a group and will just bring all of my characters over and play the new professions later.
