I'm very new to the game, so much of this may be very old news to most of you. The wife and I only got into one day of BWE2 and I hadn't done a whole lot of investigation before that. I wish I had, as I was a bit lost about certain aspects of the game while we were playing. As you guys stated in your podcast, this game is amazing but it really requires you to forget any mindset you may be carrying over from previous games. There were also several aspects to the game that weren't at all obvious and I would have never realized, had I not done some research. Hopefully ArenaNet will have a better newbie tutorial to explain some of it at release. However, I love what I'm seeing so far with the game and thought it would be useful to consolidate some of what I've found. That way, I can use the details to help me recruit other friends! If you have any other links and/or suggestions, please let me know! The more players, the better... right?
