Look over your direct attack skills. You'll rarely need more guild wars gold than four direct attacks, whether they're melee, magic or ranged. Make sure that the total recharge time, energy costs and casting time on your attacks are low enough that you can always have at least one active. Perfectly, ordinary players who never solo farm, or ever go near the elite areas, can make enough guild wars gold to outfit multiple characters in elite amour simply by playing the game and selling the drops to the merchant and traders. Check your equipment to make sure it matches your skills. Certain skills give additional effects if a specific type of weapon damage hits its target. You can use weapon add-ons to change your weapon damage type.

For ordinary players, it is difficult for many newcomers to make enough guild wars gold. They may think the only way to make guild wars gold is to solo farm elite areas such as the underworld, or to sell elite weapons in the trade channel. Of course, it is one means, but not the only way. Add more attack skills only if you are in a highly specialized attack class, such as a pure Fire Elementalist or some Warrior builds. Other characters will be better suited with other skills in those slots.Decide if you have any particular buffs or debuffs that work well with your attack spells. For instance, if you have a skill the works better on a target with a Deep Wound, but you don't have a Deep Wound attack, look for a hex or spell that causes one.

Use personal buffs only if they directly affect your play style. Adding a skill that increases your melee damage when the majority of your skills are spells makes little sense.Consider some sort of condition or hex removal, if available. The non-valuable ones all sell for 100 guild wars gold. And the Rare Material trader deals in rare materials that either drop, or are crafted. So keep in mind that picks up every drop. You can't always rely on the other people in your party to fix you up as quickly as you may need. Over the course of an entire fight, removals are often more valuable than direct healing.Place a resurrect skill in your bar. The only time you can get away from this is with highly specialized solo farming builds.
