Back on topic, a PUP sin was asked to ping his bar. After a while, a perma-SF bar (this after the PvE/PvP separation) with PvE-only skills was brought forth. Pointing out the fact, this was the response that we got: "Do you think that I'll let you see my super secret ownage build?"

Taurucis, if you go into options and click on the interface tab, you can toggle parts of your interface on and off, and resize them.

When using [aura of displacement] I get called a "noob runner" by most melee. For some reason running away from certain death using [dark escape] is also bad.

Other then that its always good lulz when my guildie and me go in specced in the wrong attributes as eles and we still like 500-100.

this ones about me.
i was playing a powaful combo of illusion weaponrys and daggars, on my me/a, and Snow Bunneh was with his r-spike group. they were capping a shrine and running away from meh like cowahds, so i ran at them while they had to stay there on the shrine to cap it. since they were running r-spike i knew i'd be safe, plus i had illusion of weakness to keep me safe, and i had used arcame mimicry to get ursan from my friend who was also on my team soloing a shrine of noob mobbing suxons with his ursan rampaging skils, so i figured i'd be pretty safe. well when i went in i cast IW and started stealthily slicing away at some of the spiking rangers. by the time my stealthy invisibilty cloak wore off i had killing on of their spikers and the second one was halfway dead. suddenly, Snow Bunneh's friend used the ultimate skill of doom, Resurrect, and they had all 4 spikers again! then, they all spiked me with >9000 forked arrows and savage shots. luckily for me they had not brought triple shot, because they got me to about 75% health by the time they were finished. then, i proceeded to kill about 1 or 2 of the spikers, including the hard reser. after that, they spiked me some more, finally taking me to about 47% max health. i killed the third ranger, and suddenly Snow Bunneh and me were all alone for the ultimate 1v1 battle of skill-testing and might. luckily my lightning fast daggars combod well with illusun wepunrys, so i took him down to about 50% health at first. suddenly, he used point bland shot to my face and i was at 26% health!!! after he hit me with 4 more forked arrows and a savage shot i was at a lowly 24% health, but illusun weakness triggered in, revealing that i was much less weak and stronger than he previusly thought i was able to be. needless to say, i blew him up and recapped the shrine. my team went on to win 500-14 after 8 more minutes of intense fighting and me-exploding-things

Oh we got trash talked once by a very explicet R/Mo that was spamming Splinter Shot on us...
Or maybe that warrior that tried to do Echo -> Power Attack or strike w/e.
Or that toucher that thought he could take on a fire ele who's build was a promise MS PBAoE build...
Or that Rt/Mo that thought Brutal Weapon and Strength of Honor was the most imba combo ever (LOLZ @ his r34d1ng skillx)
Or that fooolish wammo that had his team all ranting about he's a good tank and I solo him with a paragon...AH yes good times.

Oh yea. Another time. This was my build: [build prof=ranger/warrior marksmanship=12+1+1 expertise=12+3][Punishing Shot][Distracting Shot][Savage Shot][Disrupting Shot][Read the Wind][Dodge][Zojun's Haste][flail][/build]

A Rodgort ele seemed to think he could solo me.....so he tries about 15 times.

Some monk who cast pacifism on my rit. That same monk who would cast pacifism on our derv, then start wanding him...

A dervish with signet of midnight. His teammate was also a dervish with ebon dust aura.

A dervish with IW.

We were missing a friend, so we pugged a warrior. We jokingly told we won the game by killing the base defender. 2 minutes later, he's dead and asking us how he's supposed to kill the base defender.

moriz · Jul 21, 2008, 05:15 PM // 17:15

there was a warrior who boasted that he's the best tank in the game.

he then rushed right into the elite ele shrine, put up his defense, and died 2 seconds later.

warrior: "WTF??? i took 200 damage a hit!"
me: "if you are stupid enough to tank, at least tank while wearing max armor."

One of my own lame moments

chasing Wammo because there was REALLY nothing better to do atm
spent my Daze on him so he couldn't cast [word of healing]
I really wanted that kill

kuramoto · Jul 21, 2008, 06:10 PM // 18:10

Recently, I was playing AB with a PUG, and won a couple. We had an ele on our team, and from what I could tell he was running the Shockwave spike bar...not terrible, considering all of the far worse alternatives. It wasn't until the 3rd match I noticed he was wielding a hammer.

I asked him why he was wielding a hammer. He said, "to deal extra damage."

I asked him what his Hammer Mastery spec was. He said, "9".

Needless to say, I left that group after the match.

I hope English is your 6th language atleast, cause that's some fail writin thar boy. I dunno whats worse, your crap ass story or your english.

ANYWAY.......

I like palying an All Trapper team and trapping the front door, then watch the same people over and over die walking out the door.

However, I once failed epically myself, I was running Verata's Gaze on a Rit, with no points in Death Magic, DOH! "Hmmm, why is that skill not working" I wondered to myself quizically.

90% of people don't understand what kiting is, whether it be from a melee, getting out of aoe, or just running from a mob. I like when people yell at me for being a coward by running away with my war or derv. Sure, ide love to stay and solo the ENTIRE mob, but I'm really not in the mood for it.

Most also don't understand the concept of it being one player base when they exclaim "lol suxons" or "die kurzdicks" when the only real difference is what side you choose for just one aspect of the game.

I remember being yelled at for being a wikier while playing cripshot, even though cripshot was around long before wiki. Facing a cripshot really brings the best out in people.

So that you can't see where you're casting spells, that's clever!

On the AoE note, it's even worse in HA, I lol so hard at people raging because they died, yet they were standing in 3 searing heats.

I've seen a para today who was R10. So I thought "hey he should at least know the basics". When he asked why he was only getting 1 energy off make haste, I began to wonder.

I was being a shrine, and this IW dagger mesmer came up and tried to attack snow bunny's ranger spike team taht was camping me. The IW mesmer got owned, and then snow bunny /laughed. Ya, and i was a shrine.

lol this reminds me of 4chan

Saborath Gilgalad · Jul 21, 2008, 08:50 PM // 20:50

-The Mesmers who constantly put [guilt] on me and nothing else when I'm Monking.
-The Eles who don't know what [inferno] does, and use it when no ones around them.
-The one Ranger I ran into laying [frozen soil] all over the place.
-And many more to be remembered later.

Oh yes I love it when that happens...

They're so used to the prospect of a warrior running around like a suicidal maniac that they blow a few screws when I kite away from the mob.

Eles have flamed me for running out of their meteor showers, rangers have laughed at me because they couldn't catch me, assassins have QQed up the whole channel because they can't kill me.

Look buddy I'm not going to stand in your DoT AoEs, I'm not going to stand still while you kill me, I'm dangerous and moving so if you want to catch me you're going to have try harder

MagicalHobo · Jul 22, 2008, 03:29 AM // 03:29

Watching a Wammo attack while I had Insidious and Spiteful Spirit on him made me laugh a bit (using [Rip Enchantment] on his [Healing Breeze] added to the humor).

Bulletdodger · Jul 30, 2008, 11:34 PM // 23:34

I really , really love it when players make grudges at other players.
I d-shotted and ele's Searing Flames , he just was just standing there and died , I moved on and he whispered me with: " You Kurzick scum , **** you ***hole" and kept on for a few minutes , he was still spamming the insults when I acidentally found him and killed him again , he left the game. Also a opposing ranger left the game after I hit him 4 times in a row while he was under lightning reflexes ( man I got lucky that time ) . There was a similiar situation like this with a necro MM who I ganked I few times.
Also one day I got in a group where 2 people left our group and the other one was AFK , so I was moving alone , and a monk started raging at me that I bring bad luck and that I should dye my armor white.
When someone gets bored of GW , just go to AB and let people that rage for no reason make your day

.
