Ha! I gave away a Sup Vigor about 2 weeks into the game that a Charr dropped near Piken Square b/c I thought only warriors could use them and my only 2 chars I play are a Mo/Me and El/N.

DOH

I keep doing stupid stuff like seeing someone sell something for what I think is cheap (like 750 gold), buying it, then realising I can't or don't want to use it, and then I try to sell it again, and get 200 gold for it if I'm lucky. I'm not a salesman...

LOL, been there, done that, got the tee shirt. Although mine usually looks something like "wwwwwwwwqeqeqwww1111....."

Speaking of the chat window, I hate that it goes back to local chat when you zone into a town. I can't count how many times I have replied to a team or guild question to all the locals after a mission or quest.

Not really a mistake on my part but,

Has anybody got halfway or more through a quest only to notice that one or more of your henchmen are stuck behind some sort of object like a chest, barrel or sign? They are way to far behind to go and get so you just leave them. You really notice when their life isn't moving but fighting suddenly becomes much harder. Then you run into a tough boss your party dies and the lacky henchmen are standing there without a care in the world. So you have no choice but to log-off and restart

Happen to me again last night. I think I'll try to keep a better eye on them

Last night a guildmate was giving me some plat so I could swap out some armor. I asked him (in guildchat) where we should meet, and he replied, "Tombs, District 11." So I merrily pop over to Tombs, District 11, and say cheerily in what I thought was guildchat, "Where's my sugar daddy?"

It was not guildchat.

Yep, none of us discovered it till we all started dying at the next big group of mobs. We had been slaughtering everything before and suddenly about half of us were dead. "Hey, why aren't we getting healed?" "Wait a minute, where's Alesia?" I double-clicked on her name and she's still standing by the chest we looted about three mobs back. GRRR....

Mostly selling things cheap out of impatience and regretting it later... Gold shocking sword of defense, max damage gold 1 handed cesta with some jazz on it, I am swimming in dye so I try and give that away when I can, and for some reason I find myself buying runes WHENEVER I can get a slightly good deal on them,

I'm surprised you didn't immediately get 70000000000000000000 whispers

You are off by one or two zeroes and no, I am not saying in which direction.

I care to share my latest blunder with a picture :

It's not really a new or noobish thing I supose, but since the update I seem to have trouble with the hench :P Got to the very end, defended the silly guy, and just as it tells me, "GET ON THE BOAT!" Well... as you can see I didn't make it

God! I love these henchmen.

Creston · Jun 16, 2005, 08:43 PM // 20:43

Hehe, that's a lot of white mantle...

Imagine smiting that lot

HoodieRat · Jun 16, 2005, 08:46 PM // 20:46

hmm, well yesterday i got to Amnoon Oasis, and saw that there was a new armor guy and decided i was gonna get myself some new armor. i also needed to clean out my invo very badly, so i decided to salvage all of my armor to make room, since it was just sitting here. i thought to myself, hell, why not salvage what im wearing too im gonna go get new armor right away anways. so i salvaged every piece of armor i had. went to the armor guy started at the top and started buying a set of armor, and what do i discover? i dont have enough parchment to finish the set. so here i am with everything but leg armor, im in my undies! i run around to different towns trying to buy enough wood planks so that i could make parchment so i could get leg armor. i felt so dumb

Silly mistake of mine was to sell a rare hammer (with reasonable mods but not max dmg) for 750gold to a guy in the pug I just finished a mission with. He was happy about it though

But as for actual game weirdness. I run dual monitors and occasionally GW will decide it doesn't want to make sure mouse focus stays on the monitor with it running. So i'll be in a battle clicking furiously only to suddenly have the game minimise because i've clicked outside of the game window >.<

Since have decent weapons for my two characters and my monk is the only one I play, I just tend to give away all the weapons I find anymore. If a good PUG was with me, I just ask if anyone needs any weapons I just picked up. If they'll use it, I give it to them. If they only intend on getting it to sell, I just hop over to Ascalon or Ft Ranik and give them away. Takes too long to sell them

This is all GW's fault,

after 8 hours (single sitting) Playing as a R/MO level 12, sold all my stuff and used all my gold to get Magor runes for all my armor, not reading it correctly that each rune lowers health -30. Go into battle with less than 100 heath.

To make matters worse I get so mad I return to town and dump all the armor into the trash can icon never to be seen again. So now heres my R/MO in his skivies with no money no material.

So now I"m just PO'ed. So what do I do? Of course I delete him. Then I go to load another charecter I was building. And you guessed it just as soon as I log on I realize, "Why didn't i just dump this charecters things into storage for my R/MO to use?"

then the other realization hit " Shoot I fogot to unload the good bow first"

Ehh, mine aren't too fancy. One thing I did do during beta (back when I was a real noob lol) was equip my ranger with a sword...and uncustomized one...and use it...regularly >_>

Also I have reg salvaged several rare weapons.
