What i love about GW is that you can spend more time on this than to get your helicopters licence and still feel like a noob! (not that I can fly a helicopter)
QUESTION: What is the best way to get some prophecy green items - nice ones for warrior and could anyone help me??? (Pref the darkness)
If that involves the PvP stuff that is fine but please explain coz I am new to it - I only PvP'ed once and Pios kicked my bum royaly :bow:
QUESTION: For the PvP stuff is it better to start a new character or use the ones I have - I only have one lev 20 and he is pretty good now :) - when i say pretty good I mean I don't die too quickly in the main missions lol
QUESTION: Do you have to finish the primary game to "unlock" anything? If my objective is to get some cool green stuff etc I have got some decent elite skills but have only got as far as ring of fire....
Anyones help would be APPRECIATED!!!

Green items are dropped by certain monsters. The monsters are not on the normal mission path (for Prophecies at least). Paragon linked to the information on where to get them. Another good source of information is:
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Index_of_unique_item_lists
Note, for people who are wondering, green weapons are just weapons with fixed stats. In prophesies these stats are always the maximum available in the game for the respective weapons, so it is less of a gamble than gold and purple items. Beware that there are non-max stat weapons in factions, so check before you buy. I got about a third of my green items myself. the others I bought from other players.

I am no expert on PvP, but I would say both. Probably best to play characters you know. For example creating a mesmer, when you have never played one before, will get you killed lot in the beginning. Also, you may need to change some skills, since fighting people is always different from fighting monsters.
QUESTION: Do you have to finish the primary game to "unlock" anything? If my objective is to get some cool green stuff etc I have got some decent elite skills but have only got as far as ring of fire....
You do not unlock anything, except the ability to do the Titan quests "The Protect blah ones" which you often see people creating a party for in the major cities. If you want to see what one of the quests look like, you can in any case just join a group doing one. If you do not have the quests, it will not be marked as done for you, but otherwise it is still the same. Protect Droknars is the first and easiest of these quests.
Ascending is what unlocks the most stuff in prophesies.

THANKS peeps - this helps a lot
ONE more question
It says:
These are the final bosses of the Ruins of the Tomb of the Primeval Kings. There are three in total. Each of them drops a few of the Hall of Heroes unique items.
Is this part of the main mission - will i get there if I keep going or how do I get there??? :)

After you have ascended, you end up at the starting point for the Glint Dragon Lair mission. From that area, there is a doorway that goes to the starting area of the Tombs.

Holy Smokes - I see why green items are so expensive
This is not easy. I am definitely up for forming a group and will need help + someone who's been there - gkm reckons it can take much more than an hour to get to the area where they drop the green stuff!!!
DID somone say they solo'ed this - as in got green stuff by themselves - how is that possible??????????????????????????

Most people when they go into the Tomb Ruins the first time get killed in less than a minute (obviously depending on how long they stand around at the start.)
The Tombs cannot be solo'ed as far as I know, at least not in a meaningful way. There are a lot of mesmer monsters and monsters that strip enchantments, so characters that run solo and rely on enchantments to survive will not do it there.
There are cases of one person going in with a full set of hench and reaching the end in just over an hour. The one guys I saw doing it was a mesmer himself.

Have you solo'ed the Tombs yet?
Pios
6th June 2006, 05:52 PM
That is one place i am yet to solo, got to the 3'rd stage solo though
And died :(
I made a few mistakes
Or something like that If i recall I was useing a mesmer build at the time.
but this is before factions and there may be amore viable builds now.
