I've played mmos since before pepperidge farm could remember and made my way into this world recently. I looked up the usual newb classes to start with and they were boring and I didn't want to get too in depth with those classes, so I chose Engineer for a challenge. Right now I'm level 37, just doing map completions and exploring as much as possible. Trying to figure out builds and how stats work with each build. These zones are really fun so far, Storymode seems a little lackluster and boring, so I will come back to finish later. Following the stories in each zone has been more immersive to me so far. Any input in this area is welcome, if I'm missing something by not doing more of my personal story I would like to know.I am absolutely loving the Engineer utility the class has to offer, this is what I feel like an engineer should be in a fantasy game. And I would like to meet other people, or join a guild, not really sure how the social aspect is in this game. From what I gather, you can be in multiple guilds? I would also like to meet some people on Discord, is that just a guild specific thing? Still a newb to discord, I have an account set up and am sorta familiar enough to get in a voice chat. Last time I used a voice chat service was Vent, so I might need a crash course on using some of the features in Discord.I have been leveling at a casual pace, taking my time to explore each area before moving on. If anyone else has an affinity for explosives and wants to learn with me and level together and eventually get into some PvP and WvW.Was told I was a man of culture in game one day because my name is Engy Splody, currently on Yak's Bend Server.
