good to hear!
I love shadow/death knight/reaver type classes...so this should be perfect for me.
Just wondering if I should go N/W or W/N...if I go N/W will I get to wear heavy armor?

Just wondering if I should go N/W or W/N...if I go N/W will I get to wear heavy armor? No, Necro primarys in GW1 are for the most part squishies. Cloth-quality stuff with a few options that get close to leather equivalents in other MMOs but at the cost of other stats. W/N and N/W play fundamentally different but the classes have always been a good match for each other... W/N will be primarily melee that spams curse/disease debuffs on targets for extra DPS. N/W is caster DPS like all other necros but with higher mobility/survivability. You can't really melee as N/W since you dont get the "Strength" stat to feed points into for melee swings (it's a Warrior primary-only stat).

Ok so I am installed and ready to rock. Just need to pick a class now. I loved healing classes but also love mages in all games so I was thinking either Monk or Elementalist. Anyone have any suggestions?

I'm on vacation at a cottage until Sunday, so I should be online and ready to go then.
Here's my worry. We all seem to get gung-ho about this stuff, but then level disparity quickly sets in and we end up soloing for the most part. I'd like to avoid that if possible and keep at least 1 character each for a static group. Is anyone else interested in this?

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE ;D
I'm game for that. Should we start it in vanilla GW to make sure everyone is on the same page? or is there a preference?
I'll roll a necro or a monk for this group, whichever the need is (just want to avoid warrior because it's my main)
Want to aim for like a Tuesday or Wednesday night? 9pm EST?
let me know if that doesnt work for someone!
once we get a time/day set, I'll make up a seperate thread and we can use it just to coordinate the group.

I can't do Wednesdays I'm in class, but Tuesday is fine. Is there a guild I can join?

With the levels being only 1-20, it should be easier in this game to stay together.
I have several 20's, a few in the teens, and a few in the single digits. I actually just created a monk in Prophecies, so I will keep him there in case he can fit into the group.
Tuesdays usually work for me.

Is there a guild I can join? I'm working behind the scenes to try to carve out a spot for us in my GW1 guild, we've got a private Guild Hall, all the best NPC vendors, and membership in a pretty active guild alliance. However if this falls through, there is plenty of room in the (empty) guild I personally own over on my second account... I've got a Guild Hall there too but no vendors or alliance

K, so far Tuesday's at 9pm EST is what it looks like. I'll wait until tomorrow (maybe Friday) to post the organization thread to give people time to see this.

I can make it Tuesday every other week for now. Once October hits, I switch to day shifts (FINALLY) and get a lot more flexibility with my schedule. It seems Tuesday nights seem to be a good night for MP so I will try to keep that open as much as possible.

I should be able to do Tuesday nights. I've created a Mesmer as I've never played that class before.
Edit: I also have an empty guild if needed. It has a guild hall but probably not much else.

Tuesday nights are great for me too, I will definitely be there. Also: I'm not overly concerned about the leveling gap, if folks are just going to run thru Prophecies then I will be on my level 20 Warrior helping out, he started as a Factions toon and has not cleared any Prophecies content. Likewise I have other 20s who have not cleared any of Factions or Nightfall. Finally: I've gotten my officer rank back in my GW1 guild, The Ethereal Guard [TeG], which I relinquished way back in 2007 (!) This means I can dish out invites again... you are welcome to stay for as long or as short as you like, this guild has been around since beta, is full of casuals like us, and is in a great alliance, so it's not going anywhere

I thought this sounded like a good idea, but just noticed Steam's still asking $30 for Nightfall. I'll pick it up if it drops, otherwise just going to save it for GW2
