Sometimes it actually helps to be an RTS clickfreak.

Say what? What does being a clickfreak mean? lol
For me it would be the Wilds, its too long for its own good.

Kill a ton of charr to find a horn that is supposed to be able to save Ascalon and then kill even more charr to take it out to a hill and blow on it.
Prince Rurik: "Oo it's raining"
Player: "Everyone in favor of going across the mountains and getting rurik killed on the way say aye."

The Wilds. Never going for Protector of Tyria again. Oh and pretty much all Jungle missions. I MEAN WHAT THE HELL. I know we have to ascend, we know I can do it by the ship... Yet you go to the jungle to be eaten alive by spiders, scorpions, giant trolls, CENTAURS (WTF), some very angry people... And then you wasted 5 hours. WASN'T. THAT. FUN?!
In Factions - Zen Daijun. Oh God, why did we go to the temple FROM SO DAMN FAR?!
Look at it. JUST LOOK AT IT. I could have been there much faster from Seitung Harbor. They have messengers, flying eagles and all that crap, why didn't they just send us to Zen from Seitung?!
Nightfall - Zomg, Moddok Crevice. And the whole thing "Oh noes we have to go to Vabbi but there are soldiers guarding fortress of Jahai''. God damn it, just send like 10000 soldiers there from your allies, crush the fortress and we can go to Vabbi. But nooo, it's much more fun to go through damn caves that can collapse on you and kill you.
EotN - G.O.L.E.M's first part of the mission. What the hell? Couldn't they build those golems in Oola's Lab (I mean, it's not like destroyers would go there and find the secret entry), then teleport them on the Destroyers' asses. And why only 2? Why? You could create like 666 of them in 5 days then pwn their asses.
Oh, and core - killing Shard Wolves in the FoW. Why? Why us? They are easy, EASY. We already killed almost all enemies in the area, even now you are too afraid to kill few puppies? God, no wonder you lost FoW to Shadow Army and Undeads.

Hmmm Venta Cemetary seems pretty pointless...
'Hmm we have quite a few sunspear evacuees and wounded here...shall we send them to the safety of the Sunspear Sanctuary only a 5 minute stroll away?'
'Nah let's march them across the desert in plain view of all those guard towers. It's ok though, there's only 12 towers...well apart from the huge fort with the cannon that can hit them anywhere, and we have 8 people protecting them...And once they get to the boat guarded by that pirate lady we're not sure we can trust they should be ok!'
'...'
'Kourna doesn't have a navy...right?'

Speaking of crossroads, I just love how the kournans are smart enough to lock up their prisoners while still letting them keep their weapons.
Yeah so I'm just going to patrol out by this jail cell, completely oblivious to the fact that my ranger prisoner has a 5 foot longbow drawn with an arrow pointing straight at my head...

None were worth it if you look at GW2 lore. The whole world is in disarray! All the fighting and dying we did was for nothing.
As far as fun factor, I enjoyed them all. The tougher, the better.

Hey dont diss on Oink
Ice caves....WTF?
Any of the magumma jungle.
The wilds espicially.
killing your doppleganger........short but pointless.
Pretty much all of factions...espicially the islands ones and Nahpui Corridor....Kill random start creatures to become Closer to the stars in order to see some Bandit killer....i stilll hate that mission.
in NF it was the party mission even though it is one of my favorites just for the random funny lines you get out of there.
in GWEN. Why do we need to save Renk if he's just gunna send his second in command after us...sigh i hate the friggen midgets

Most of the NF missions are pointless in one way or another. Prophecies jungle missions too, but I enjoy them. Of course I enjoy root canals too.

In no specific order:
1. The Wilds - Run through the entire map to catch up to the shining Blade who kidnap some people that will be killed anyway.
2. Aurora Glade - Run crystals from point A to point B to point c and then point D before the White Mantel do. /yawn
3. Borliss Pass - Going to Kryta
4. Frost Gate - Going to Kryta
5. Gates Of Kryta - Get further into Kryta. Kill undead.
6. D'Alessio Seaboard - Kill more undead while searching for the Scepter of Orr.
7. Tihark Orchard - Boring single player mission to impress some Princes. Why? Are we experimenting with GW The Offline Edition?
8. Vizunah Square - Kill a bunch of diseased, horribly disfigured, exploding, homeless degenerates on your way to ascension while relying on a usually incompetent secondary team. Which of course, you have no control over. Awesome idea Anet!
9. Unwaking Waters - Pretty much the same failure of a mission as Vizunah Square except you get to kill a Dragon at the end. Which later becomes your ally.

each campaign has one or two missions that just kind of made me go "huh?"
the one that stands out from proph is gates of kryta...our hero and whats left of the ascalon refugees just spent the last few days clawing their way through hordes of dwarves and centaurs only to get to a place with decent weather and be told you've got to kill hordes of undead before you can take a nap on the beach....I blame this on most npc's being horrendously lazy and refusing to do any of their own monster killing.
In factions the most pointless one for me seems to be vizunah square...I never really understood why we were fighting off endless hordes of zombies in that slum.
in Nightfall, probably the Nundu Bay one...mostly because despite melonni's raving nothing ever *actually* happened to the village...essentially we just took melonni to some kind of hypnotherapist and embarked on a weird adventure into melonni's subconcious.
there are some pretty rediculous quests too...one really stood out for me, after finishing nightfall with my derv I went out to the garden in vabbi since it was now back in pristine sunny condition I could do the quests therein...
I just found it really weird that somone would walk up to the hero that killed a god and saved the world from certain destruction and ask "hey could you take out my trash for me?"
