My build lame....hmm maybe. But you know what I dont care. Its something to run. Something to play with other people and maybe get a few fame. I'm not r3+ or anything so the odds of finding a competent "balanced" team is unlikely. I could join randomway, but generally 90% of thats fail. That leaves ranger spike, necro spike, smiteball, IV spike, iway, zergway, steadystance. So I've never really gotten into playing a necro, so throw out IV spike and necro spike. I happen to think iway, zergway, and steady stance, shouting fear me! all over the place is lame so I won't run that. So that leaves ranger spike, "spirtway"/heroway, smiteball, and balanced. I happen to have played spiritway that time. Get over it. You may think its lame, but currently your opinions dont do sh!t for me. You may have some good things to post once in a while, but right now i have very little respect for your opinions.

But this isn't about my build, or spiritway or the meta of HA or broken skills.

Its about people like them going in with the intention of not fighting. It goes against everything about pvp. Sure an interupt or enchant removal would have worked, but oh so sorry that my leet team of sub-r3 players didn't happen to think about bringing one for the counter. But still, spamming a few skills in a chain is not hard, esp when you can still cast under shadow form. Sissy screwed up maybe once or twice over the course of that time, in which we could have interupted shadow form. The other times, shadowform is able to be reapplied while still under the effects of shadowform, thusly making the character invincible to anything other than enchant removal.

This needs to be stopped, and a ticket will going to ANet.

And noone cares if walt is an emo or sissy's bf will rape her, so quit f'ing around when other people are actually trying to play. Go do it in RA where I wouldnt care because its fricken RA. But this was HA, where a real group of people were actually trying to play a match. Instead we got 3 shadowsins running around for an hour and half.

I'm glad that except on rare occasions, Permashadow sins stay in UW and don't go much further.

You mean you played sway, had OoA, and couldnt kill shadowform?

Even without direct counters like that it only takes a little coordination and brains to kill the guys.

In before lock.

To add to this though, reporting for griefing will result in nothing.

They're using the skills ANet has provided, this is not abuse, go look it up. ANet will state that as well.

Deadly daggers was the attack... With all your spirits and broken n/rt heals you simply do not die . Wtf hax!!!

Did you consider using splinter weapon against ghost to kill shadow form sin? : o.

You go in with the intention of cheap fame. You seem to forget Sissy girl is a lover not a fighter...

Or touch skills.
Or wells.
Or signets.
Or spirits.
Or target ally type things, like ancestors rage.

It takes perfect timing, doing that for one hour... Hard work.

Hope that was sarcasm.

HA needs a grief timer like RA/TA does.

Do you remember kill count, where teams would spike someone down and then run around until time ended? I hope you enjoyed that.

Let's add a grief timer because someone has obsessive compulsive disorder compelling them not to resign after 1 hour 30 minutes for one fame.

If a team could kill one person, and run around you in circles for 10 minutes, you are doing something wrong. Small wonder most people hated kill count, didnt know how to snare things.

I am quoting for emphasis. What the griefer did was hard to be fair to the guy.

Also you suck for running sway OP

And thank you, Maybe I'll run it more often??


The point still remains that running a Shadowform sin in HA is wrong, and people who do so should not be rewarded for being able to stand around and press a set skill combo over and over without thinking and/or even attacking anything. Thats all. Flame me for what I run. Fine whatever. But it doesn't change my point.

QQ thread of epic failure. People complaining about grief builds in underworld QQ is 1 fame so important to you that you cannot just resign and reenter and let a far better team than you get the chance to wipe those Shadow form sins off the rotation? You waited HOW LONG just to win 1 fame? You couldnt admit the limitations of YOUR OWN LAME GIMMICK BUILD... you have become so blindly faithful in its ability to farm scrubs that you cannot for 1 second consider that you actually faced something you have NO idea NOR the tools to beat? Tell me do you not even have profane on your death necro?

The things people would do for 1 fame. Thats HA misery for you!

theres a difference between the value of mindless buttonmashing gimmicks and the value of joke builds. Buttonmashing gimmicks in HA in my opinion destroyed the arena as a location of high end play that ran the show (low end runs the show as opposed to GvG where high end play runs the show).

Joke builds have little to NO impact on the meta in the long run since that is exactly what they are JOKE builds.

basically if you set yourself up with such a limited gimmicky build you should not be suprised at the possibility of epic failure.

I quite enjoyed the fact that a RaO lamer came onto the forums to QQ about someone elses build because they thought it was lame.

this thread is just flamebait...

run a better build with a team of 8 good players...

its really as simple as that.

We met this guy or someone similar in HA recently. We were running a lame-o build too, so we couldnt kill him either. It was damn annoying at the time, but in the grand scheme of things its no big deal.

Live by the gimmick, die by the gimmick
