SixJish: A big one for me is not being afraid to ask for help! Gw2 community is super friendly, and always eager to help new players out!
airesjr11: Unironically the thing that got me to genuinely love and enjoy the game was using Taco and blush hud, turns out world completion and exploring are easily my favorite things in gw2.
muddydaking: Started playing gw2 this week and im loving it. Already purchased the first 2 core expansions to get atleast a mount to enjoy the game more. The armors and cosmetics in this game looks really cool and everything in the world looks alive even starting zones.
pablofernandogonzalezolmos8472: I love your way to explain the game!
Kazgrel: As a day 1 player, were I to start over...I would go for getting into raids, as wild as that may sound. Raiding can basically fast track you to getting legendaries done. I'm a day 1 GW2 player who never did the raids until start of last year. Since then I've cleared all of them on Challenge Mode (minus wing 8) and have all the legendary armor sets ring from them...and all that gear was done within a year.
sublimical1311: NGL thought this video was going to be you announcing that you'd be starting a fresh account and making a series of it. I'd watch the shit out of that lol
MsVector666: Your channel is an immense help for me since I am only 12 hours in to the game and learning. Decided to pick up your thief deadeye build for the time and than when I will have more knowledge I'll try mesmer and guardian
abzoluterennix477: honestly when i started with making builds and went to look up what was best for my guardian i kinda got bored with getting the best build. So i just went with what i wanted and knew how to activate, and so i build my ice guardian/willbender with dual swords and 2h sword
Keladoa: In GW2 you can go to the arena and go fight the golems(these are like training dummies). in Arena you are automatically increased to max level and have everything unlocked. This way you can go test builds and skills
Anergyne: Do the story. Another things other MMOs might have conditioned you to do is skipping the story, but the story and lore of GW2 is actually pretty good, at least once you get past the core game into living world. So if you're new to the game? Play the story. And take your time with it. All of the story chapters being replayable means you can
avenganinjax: Baby wake up, new Evan video just dropped
MissSeraNoir: New player here, thx for the vid :)
toonu: Excellent video. Practical good advice.
mazfgit: Me not playing for 5 years coming back all gear still fine.

seanrutter15: Getting into fractals is kinda toxic tbh. Nobody wants to slow down to show anyone the ropes, even at low ranks. It made me hate that game mode. When there's a weekly wizard's vault for fractals though, it is the most profitable thing, just sucks that everyone seems to be rushing/going through the motions.
Erik1495: I don't agree about rushing to level 80, leveling is quite Bad in gw2 You are not really missing out other than world bosses and map completion required for some legendaries
fatmanpez: When I look back to when I started 10 years ago the biggest thing I might have done differently was starting crafting earlier than I did, sure selling stacks of Mats from my storage got me a small income here and there but selling Refined Materials and bigger items does more. Also playing the story in order, I went from beating Core story twice to some HoT to PoF which I did beat and then I sort of just wandered around until the End of Dragon's Announcement when I decided to go back to Living World Season 2 and finish everything from there to Icebrood in order and a lot more was opened up to me.
MrDwightSchrute: Awesome video man! I am a new player and have watched lots of Guild Wars 2 videos lately. This one is above the rest.
xXEmTmXx: Muchas gracias por tan buen video explicativo!!!
Además el traductor me hizo entenderlo de mejor manera, thx u!!!
littleicky2852: Gw2 is a very interesting offline multiplayers game. I stopped for months and got back and picked up right away where I left.
fitzchivalry728: The adventure guide is the best way outside of a booster to hit level cap as fast as possible, the last time i did a new character run thru, it only took me a few hours, and i didnt have any mounts aside from the raptor at the time, or an efficient route, saw a video of someone doing it in like 3-4 hours iirc, took me like 6-8 afaicr
smokyx: Omg the timing of this video.. i need this
CaptainAdmiralMango: I picked mesmer because I've never seen anything quite like it elsewhere, loved it since the very first moment
MrLesliewood: I think a nice tip for new players is to try PVP early on as it can give you a feel for what the character will be like at max lvl with all the specialisation unlocked
