I appreciate your efforts mate
Please sir make sure everyone one playing the game it's called nerf war 2. Not guild war 2
Lot more than 10k mate
Just getting back into GW2 after many many years out. This video was also great as a reminder for what everything does. Thanks a ton.
Honestly, thank you for this. I decided to give GW2 a shot because I saw a lot of overlap from players of my main MMO (FFXIV) and GW2, and since I love the XIV community so much, and was looking for a different mmo for a small XIV break, I decided to dive in. IT’s a LOT to take in for a total newcomer to GW, even if I’m experienced in MMO’s, so seeing you break down everything was really, really helpful. Thanks a lot for the time you took making this!
How did you find it? I'm thinking about trying after this video
@@charliemartn I really enjoyed my time with it! Real life has taken over so I haven’t been on in a while but I am glad I did play it. Got up to Path of Fire before I had to stop but the story and actual game play is quite good. It’s free to play, so there’s nothing to lose in trying
@@coltonbunja Thank you! I will give it a go 👍🏼
Perfect timing! I just started my journey in GW2.
You’re a day late so not perfect my n word
Figure out any noob tips yet? Just started yesterday and got my necro to level 8.
me too , today !
About to start mine
Me too!
I love GW2 and really enjoy seeing others get excited about it, its really such a great MMO that really flies under the radar.
Is it still your main MMO?
well im just starting today. wanna group up and show me the ropes?
Played this from 2013-2018. It's always good to go over the basics again. Thank you for the 2022 guide mate. Feels good to be back.
This is perfect! I just started on GW2, thank you for the guide! 😁
Are you still playing it?
2nd GW2 beginners guide I have watched, you always manage to make things interesting.
As a veteran its always nice to see vids like this. Good run through. You did miss a big thing regarding combat. The game utilises combat fields, these fields enhance your attack/spells etc in different ways.
This is one of the best beginner guide for this game i've ever seen. Great job!
Finally decided to jump into the game. Thanks for having such an informative video that doesn't spoil the game. It's the perfect amount of information to get started!
I just got into the game as well! Loving it
Been playing a ton of valheim. And we just picked up gw2 yesterday. Thought I was losing my mind with the music in the background lmao. Thanks for the great video, we were WoW people so its nice having a welcoming guide to introduce into the guild wars world
Thank you!!! I was trying so hard to remember where that music was from.
OMG THANK YOU for explaining how to turn off carpal tunnel camera control. I was struggling, especially with combat, since I'm used to ESO with relaxed hand "action" (don't have to clamp down mouse button forever) camera control. The game feels so much more alive and rewarding without the tab targeting that feels like it's insulting my intelligence. Really a great game with a lot of very well-designed systems, it's underrated af!
With so much info put into one video, I think this is an amazing video! When I started with WoW I was looking at guides to help explain it and never found one that kept me engaged. This video has broken down so many things and explains GW2 very well that I am now excited to start my new journey in GW2. I love how you explained a lot of the main core components that new players will want to focus on as this makes me less intimated to play. You have done a very amazing job making this video and the amount of hours put into this does not go unnoticed. You were the first person that popped up when I wanted to learn about this game and your content encourages me and excites me for my new adventure into GW2. Keep up the amazing work and you have earned yourself a like, a subscribe, and a supporter!
Just started playing this week. This video is going to be extremely handy. This is my first MMO and its a little overwhelming
As a new player to whole genre of MMO, guild wars 2 sounds like a perfect game for me, and this guide really helped me to understand basics of the game.Thank you very much
Same here! As a fellow newbie, I also recommend FFXIV. There’s a huge free trial with hundreds of hours of content to play without paying a cent, and it’s generally very fun.
Thank you for your great tips! Action Camera setting makes me enjoy the game a lot more!
Loved the video, thank you for all the work and passion you put into it.
OK but why is nobody asking about that literal WALL OF PIZZA behind him? Is he recording this in some pizza place?
@@TechSupportDave When you start a youtube career you need a gimmick.
The energy behind having all of those pizza boxes behind you is really getting to me. lmao
I'm no beginner idk why i'm watching this but i love it
My mind was blown with the amount of information in this video. I like detailed games and this one is looking to be it
*I really liked the fight for your life feature!*
Ah, arrived just in time. Love you Narc!✌🏾 I love this game too (tho I've never played it)
Thank you for making this guide. I just started playing GW2 and this guide answered most of my questions. I am definitely going to keep referring to this video.
I started playing yesterday and i had someone guide me trough the beginning a bit, but this cleared up a lot of things. Thanks!
Just getting back into GW2 myself and a big thank you for this really great beginners guide! Looking forward to your HoT and PoF guides too, keep up the good work! :)
sadly - I had to discontinue the HoT and PoF guides because other work got in the way! apologies! I suggest just going into them expansions completely blind and you will have so much more fun
@@Narc This breaks my heart! You are so passionate, professional and funny. I was really looking forward to these guides. Is there ANY chance of you to reconsider and repent your decision? If not, then please take this, my final word into account. Please.
I was also searching for then :/
Thanks for the video. Just started playing GW2 and playing less and less of WoW and I can honestly say I'm having more fun when I play GW2 than WoW at the moment. Eager and excited to see where this game takes me.
I’m brand new to the game and I’m loving it so far!
I just GW2 not long, ill keep this upload handy, very detailed thanks...New MMO,s are pretty overwhelming, so far so good. You cant help felling borderline anxiety because you wanna know everything quickly.
Good guide, compliments. Despite I felt like if I had to catch a breathe, for the sheer amount of information you provided without interruption (understandable, if you didn't want to make a video of 2 hours), it's rare to cover basically everything important in one single guide. And you made it.
yeah I personally much prefer fast detailed guides over slow ones, because it's not only more concise, but when I need to skip to a certain section, it's much easier to do so with a 40 minute video.
Awesome! Thanks!
This game now that is on Steam im gonna give it a shot. I appreciate this video and just want to say i appreciate the level of enthusiasm! Can hear in your voice that it sounds like you are really passionate about the game! Thanks again king!
Good beginners guide! Going to get GW2 off steam right away. And since I'm old I will have to watch this vid a couple more times to let things sink in. Thanks for your time invested. I subbed.
This was an exellent video for a returning player after years. Thank you for the content! I'm an avid MMO player since I was little and you've helped me decide what MMO is worth playing today. Guild Wars 2!
Im at the same, I returned some days ago after years and got kinda lost and Bag its full lol
I played at launch almost 10 years ago and don't know why but stopped. Picked the game up again and this has been really helpful. Thank you!
@Slumbr Tracks oh yeah, my old engineer just turned 10 today. Have 5 chars all 9 year old. I had so many items from birthday gifts almost run out of space.
I have so many lvl up items I’ve moved all my alts to 60. From there 20 tome of knowledge to 80. :D
I quit too and for the life of me can't remember why. It looked and sounded amazing.
The action camera bit literally saved the game for me. Ty
Amazing video for me as a starter explained everything perfectly cheers man
You convinced me! Installing now.
thank you for this guide, I'm trying this MMO today and heard great things about it.
I love how you are using the music from Valheim in your video...such a great game
So, I had no idea the Action Camera was even a thing. Thank you for this guide.
Good guide! It makes me want to start playing the game again. Keep up the good work.
nobody asked sirO
You have a very clear and concise way of explaining this subject and I appreciate it. I’m an average gamer and learn slower than some. Thanks!
Excellent video tons of information and greatly explained keep it up my friend 👌🏽🎮🔥
"Amazing" does not cover how awesome is this video and its content. Good job!
Great video, thanks for the guide ! Very helpful
Awesome guide.. very well done..keep up the great work
Nice review and I think between you and Lazy Peon I have finally chosen a game to tide me over till Ashes is ready!
Amazing guide !
Wonderful guide! Thank you!
I was thinking of getting myself back into the mmorpg scene, but I wasn't sure which game to pick. Heard many good things about GW2. Hope this guide will give me a good insight about the inner workings of the game
Thank you for the guide. I never knew about the Toggle Action Camera. Also, I couldn't help but notice the really captivating background music, it reminds me of the Witcher 3 music.
I can't thank you enough for this video.. The action combat was one of the things that changed the entire game for me! I really didnt enjoy the tab targeting in this game and movement.. But holy hell that changed with that!
A M A Z I N G !! Exactly what I was looking for ! Thanks ))))
Love the content, I haven't played GW2 since release... just recovering my account now :)
thanks for the video - i really hope your guild leader is okay. the message at 18:07 made me sad lmao
I didn't notice the message, thank you spike for pointing out. Unfortunately it's a very common situation with many guilds in GW2 to have a lot of members but only very few active ones. Mine is similar: 350 members and just 13-18 online at the same time, with 5-6 representing. The game is so big that it's easier to post in LFG than asking in guild chat.
Excellent beginner guide. One suggesting is to show how to use 'Snap to Target' for targeting AOE skills and Range Skills with Fast Range Indicator.
great video my man
Thank you this helped me alot 🤩
Great video for a beginer like me. Thanks!
I thought having in-game currency change system is really unique for Lost Ark, it is surprising to know Guildwar was doing that as well!! It looks amazing. Def gonna try this game! Thanks for the detailed video
i notice that in 24min you play the music of one of my favourite game of all times,VALHEIM :),i start this game yesterday since i am a boomer gamer coming from l2,poe,lol,wow,and many others mmos,i can say that i am still waiting for thrones and liberty and AOC,but until then i am extremely excited that i found this game!its really so so so nice,i was avoiding it for years and i start it as my last hope,cause there is nothing out there for now,and i can say that THIS IS THE GAME THAT SOMEONE NEEDS TO PLAY IT TO UNDESTAND HOW FUN IT IS AND BEAUTIFUL,all my friends where saying that is old and 10years old game and bla bla bla,....but guess what,they where wrong,i will say only this,just DOWNLOADED and play it for 30mins and then you will realized what i said!
Great video brother
awesome guide. thanks for video
The MMO game that I spent almost a decade on suddenly decided to shut down its server a few months ago (years of grinding and farming gone down the fucking drain) and I've been looking for a new MMO to dive into. WoW is out of the question so it looks like it's gonna be GW2. This video was very very helpful, my good sir. I already like the game and I haven't even installed it. My only problem with this video is that it should've came out like 8 years back so I'd have invested my time in an MMO that was actually worth playing. But I thank u, nonetheless
If you are new player and planning to be really good in PvP, I recommend you to focus on tab target.
Action cam might be easier to play, but any high level play is done with tab target, due to limitations of action cam.
If you use action cam you will be just fine, but don't expect to be a god in pvp.
Also, most players prefer tab target. That's how the game was released. Action cam was added later.
Just don't feel forced to turn on the action cam or tab target and play what you find preferable.
I've been wanting to get into this game for a few years, yes years I think it might be time to start.
Nice touch with Valheims meadows music, 's so good
Definitely do guid on all expansions!! Barley lvl40 but got the deluxe pack for when I clear the F2P world.
Make sure to also buy the living world season packs! It fills in the gaps between expansions
Nice overview, thanks! I had actually played it back in 2012 during release but was disappointed by certain things back then.
Downloaded last week. Can't believe I've missed out on this game for so long but I'll happily put in hours for the next few years as long as they keep it alive and well. The questing so far is my favorite part but that's all I've been able to do so far.
Current level: 16 necromancer and it seems like a great PVE class
Side note: I think Guild Wars is becoming quite popular again for what ever reason.
I also just downloaded the game and started a necromancer class, is it still fun exploring without a mount, I'm used to having a mount in BDO
@@harryjd0_0 I actually have a trail T-rex that was gifted to me on login for some reason. so since level 12ish I've been using that and I'm now level 20. Since having a mount I've missed out on plenty of necessary exploration content that was hand crafted for the paths in the game. That being said; It's a whole lot faster when you can jump over huge rock walls and avoid the entrance to most towns. I'll be more than fine once the trial for the T-rex ends but as soon as I hit level 50 in the next 50ish hours of gameplay (I have no idea how long it will take.).... Once I hit level 50 I'm going to start buying all of the expansions and dropping as much money as I can into cosmetics.
TL:DR- It's actually more enjoyable to explore low-mid levels without a mount.
I really appreciate this guide as a new player.
installing the base version rn. great video
Great video man, as a new playing this is a massive help. Not a waste of time at all ;)
Edit: Can't get over how good action camera makes the game feel! This is an absolute must
As a main human ranger player i found it very difficult in the beginning for being a necromancer, but thanks to your video i managed.
Wonderful video, are the two expansion videos still coming?
Theres some race specific abilities. I actually really like some of them for some classes. Sylvaris seed turret stuff is good for farming the overworld
I usually switch off after 5 mins with most guides but I watched this till the end and am gonna check out the other expansion guides.
Unfortunately friend, I got completely swept up in my usual content so them other guides never got around to being made...
However, I can recommend some other channels who focus purely on gw2 if you're interested?

I just started playing Guild Wars 2 and I used to play Guild Wars 1 years ago and got all my God walking titles so I'm excited to play Guild Wars 2 finally great vid thank you
great video, I always come back to GW2 but I never seem to get hooked. I need to think about how to play it more maybe, rather than trying to finish the content
Great video and I really appreciate it as a total newby. But a small correction is necessary. The first MMOROG to introduce the concept of one server for everyone was EVE Online.
I recently downloaded the Steam version and was ready to play again (last time I played was 2016) because I barely remembered anything I did in the game from the past, until I actually started again and zoomed out the map. There I just felt pure nostalgia and suddenly I remembered where I stopped and how much of the map I explored and completed before. I realized just how much I underestimated the amount of time I spent in the game years ago, considering that I now remember unlocking all areas and 100% completing the majority on exploration. Man I missed this.
You can actually use your old account on steam by adding "-provider Portal" in the launch option. Right click on library and select properties. I started with a new steam account too then i found out i can do this. Lo and behold, i have tons of free stuff accumulated over the years.
Thank you 🙏
thank you for this video im finally starting out
awesome video
good content bröther
Good video.
great vid! Valheim music fits this guide also :P
Played GW2 years ago, before any expansions. But this video makes me want to try it again.
Exactly what I’m going through right now. Did you ever play again? How is it? Currently downloading haha
I like how the default human Thief llooks a bit like Todd Howard. 🤣
I sometimes fell like I am working together with Arena Net marketing team when i realise i watch and like videos praising it for 10 hours a day
This is a great informative video, you never made the expansion videos?
Valheim music in the background really brings back hours of building xD
11:59 Awww~~~ someone comes to save you
Always revive fellow players. I don't think it's a rule. But we aren't barbarians here.
Great vid! It's appreciated but you forgot about the uniqueness of the mounts.
Thanks for the vid. I started this game after I've sunken quite a bit of time into ff 14 only to realize it didn't get "better" for me.
i was one of those people too. i guess ff14 is only for some. played wow for many years. i did like the other final fantasies though
Thank you
I stay for the info but I subscribe for the little frog miniature at the beggining
Love all your stuff narc keep it up ! Ashes will be a big, loving gw2 for the first and enjoying an mmo for the first time in a long time (they all suck)
As a new GM of this game, this helps alot
Took a PAUSE from 10y of playing WOW and started GW2 on 1.5.2023 and today is 3.5.2023 and I'm already 28lvl warrior and 4lvl necromancer:) and believe it or not, I'm eyeing the Guild Wars 2 Complete Collection to start my journey trough this MMO. Loving it so far, can't say anything bad about it, this guys just need to move this game onto REAL ENGINE 5 and I'll forget about "so expected" Ashes of Creation :D
