    I've been playing this game off and on for years, since day 1, and I NEVER knew about /wiki. I'm enlightened, my third eye is open!

    Really? First thing I do for any game I play. You can get what your need know and still avoid spoilers if you hate them.

    I mean I go to the game's wiki pages all the time, but I guess it just never occurred to me to use /wiki in game.

    I kind of want a mod now like I have in Stardew Valley where, if I hit F1 over a weapon/item/whatever, it basically opens the wiki for that thing I'm hovering over.

    That should be just a function of any MMO.

    Odd, GW2 is the only game that I know of that has a /wiki command in-game.

    I would say all of this with the exception of the wiki should be common sense for all games.

    Tip 1 - Do what you find to be fun. If you're not having fun, why not?

    Me… Apart from doing the usual things you'd find in a game like this. Like fighting, collecting etc. I like exploring, and climbing high and gliding around the maps.

    Tip 2 - Try and get your level at least 5 or more above the minimum level for a map. Dying repeatedly when you've just moved to a new map is not fun.

    Tip 3 - Help others when you can, and if you need help ask via chat, Gw2 players are very helpful.
