Well, I received a $50 gift card to Amazon for my birthday yesterday, and I am seriously considering buying GW2.

you'd definately get your moneys worth, they did a real nice job with the game.

l2p,,,,you say defending the gimpiest class in gw2... 
sure condition master may be ok for wvw, but they fixed range on epidemic last patch, minions are still borked (though shadowfiend got a fix with blind), and life siphons still aren't working with traits to perform at a satisfactory level.

its ok though, i thought they were ok too, until i tried a different class.  they have potential, but they still need some more love.

I so agree. The ele has so many broken skills and seems quite underpowering compared to other classes.

I also swapped to warrior. not very "tanky" though. I need moar practice dodging.

I am unsure what you mean by dual weilding in this case thoug, all classes can. Unless you mean the weapon set swap that ele's do not get?

Well yeah, all classes can.  A necromancer dual wielding is a bit different then a warriors.  I don't care for the guardian.

My Guardian kicks ass *(^$&($%

I checked out their forums and I have a couple of questions. 

How much does "night capping" actually effect the servers over all in the WvWvW competition?  I read that Dragonbrand server lost their night time population and also HoA(?) has a strong oceianic population to "night cap" when the north american population is mostly at work and asleep.  Seems a bit demoralizing if you go to sleep and wake up and you lost all that you've won just because you don't have a server population to cover that time.

Is there any indication that the free server transfer thing is going to stop?  I read that it is there until guesting is implemented.  I don't like the idea of someone coming into the match on my server and wasting our supplies to help the other team.  I wouldn't mind if I could kill that player trying to screw us but as I understand it, you can't punish those spying and doing other activities like wasting supplies.  I have no objection to spying and espionage but you don't have counter measures when someone does a server transfer just to do that.  If there are countermeasures you can implement then I wouldn't mind so much.

How much of a impact is the bots and what do they actually effect?   

How long of a wait is typical for WvWvW?

Leveling a newb.  How many players are around to run with in lower levels?  I figure people are playing at cap for a bit once they get there.  Wondering if there is a good population with a bad case of altitis.

Diminishing returns.  When does this actually kick in.  I've read that it can effect someone just doing a area without even trying to farm it.

There are a fuckton of bots everywhere you go.  Not sure how you can get to level 24 without noticing them.  Maybe it's a server thing, but I probably see 10+ a day playing maybe 2-3 hours. 

As for having people to play with at lowbies, there are lots of people as long as you're playing in the right time zone.  And hey, even if you're not, you can run around with the bands of roving bots.

The server is full until someone in it decides to move to a different server, or until Arena net increases the servers max population.

When you choose a home server all your toons are on that server, I've not worked out a way to have multiple toons on multiple servers.  For the time being it's free to transfer servers, apparently one day it'll be changed to a paid service though.

What are the bots and what do they do?

Also, if you are done with DDO can I have your large stones?
