The latest update to Guild Wars added a cool feature on the Isle of the Nameless: the Master of Damage and the Master of Interrupts. Now we finally have a way to compare raw DPS of builds and teambuilds.

What is the Hardest thing to do in every MMORPG?

Big changes coming to Guild Wars PVP. Andrew Patrick, the PvP Community Coordinator for Guild Wars, explains the changes in the latest Dev Update:

We are releasing an anti-griefing system for game types that use randomly formed teams, such as Random Arenas, Alliance Battles, and Competitive Missions. We hope to accomplish two ends: first, to deter players who leech rewards while not playing; second, to limit rewards for players who leave games prematurely.

These changes sound great. I do not played a lot of PVP, but the few times I have there are always griefers, AFKers and leechers.

This is a followup to my last post. Gaile Gray (ArenaNet Community Relations Manager) sheds some light on the new mini pet and reveals the Guild Wars Special Edition PC Gamer:

* We will provide information for you today (18 Sept) at Noon Pacific. That’s when it was scheduled to be posted, as that was supposed to be a week in advance.
* The mag officially hits shelves on September 25th, so if you’re seeing it in a store, it’s early.
* The magazine is North American only, sorry. The NCsoft Europe Marketing Team devised another giveaway for several European countries, as you’re probably aware.
* I am sorry, I do not know if this issue will be sent to subscribers or not. It could be an extra edition, I’m just not sure. (But will try to find out.)
* This is an exclusive Guild Wars Issue, the first ever of its kind by PC Gamer. They approached us with the idea not too long ago, and I do think you’ll be pleased with all the art, all the info, and the helpful walk-through of the primary repeatable quests for GW:EN.
* Yes, there is information about Guild Wars 2, as written by Ree Soesbee, who is a team member you may not have met yet but will get to hear from more in the future. (Nice person, too!)
* Retail cost: $9.95.
* Miniature: Priceless.

Found here.

I have no idea if this is true…. According to this thread, the October edition of PC Gamer is going to have a code for a mini sinew.

Street Fighter: The Later Years Part 4 released today. Go watch it now. (Warning: College Humor – some links NSFW)
