Using Inspired enchantment on AoD in RA while the thoroughly confused enemy team tried to figure out how I did it, in local chat.

Beating R10 IWAY with 4 hench, flawless - we went in because we were bored waiting for everyone to show.

A picture is worth 1000 words.

What happened: our whole team wipes except for our death necro, Wolven Skull. He runs across the map and solos the priests with our Ghostly, then comes back to the altar, chain resses, then chain putrids EVERYTHING dead, and caps. GEE GEE.

Watching observer, I noticed this little gem:



That's right, a Monk specced across not only 5 attributes, but he also is using Deathly Swarm. I never saw him use his elite, and it worries me that it could have possibly been Offering Of Blood, laying him out across a sixth attribute.

As for my own rediculious PvP, running 8 Paladins and plowing over rank 50+ GvG Ranger Spikes... how to stop Healing Hands I suppose? Though that was during a Ladder Lock, I'll never forget HHing and Mending our way to victory.

Back in the old days, quite some time ago. I think it was still the time of Spirit Spam but i don't know for sure anymore.

Going in as Edgebomb, for the fun of it. It used to be so hilarious to see everyone drop at the same time and then watch the flames and curses flowing in. Anyways, we met some very bad teams on the way to the HoH and thus made it there with a cheap Edgebomb.

Funny thing is, we pulled off the Edgebomb in the middle of the onslaught when no one was expecting it. Suddenly everyone except our R/Mo was dead. They were like "wtf, uh nice". Well, a few seconds later everyone started to laugh. There was about a minute to win and, well our ghostly... well...
Someone forgot him at the Spawn and our Ranger was panicking so bad (his first time in HoH) he was incapable of getting the idea to get the fricking ghostly hero to cap the Altar. After telling him a few times he finally went and brought the Hero...
He started to cap. But he was too slow, a rough second too slow. And that after 30 seconds of standing around going like "dude, what the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO i do, what do i do, what do i do. Damn, what do i do!!!!" on TS in utter panic from him while everyone told him to get the Ghostly. Probably everyone died from laughing. It's been embarassing and fun at the same time :P

LOL that reminds me of this time on aM when we ran 8 wammos as well, and beat Fnld during offseason. Much raging ensued. >_>

We lost to a Pallyway once. Actually, it was only due to the fact that our runner was lagging like hell, so he spent three quarters of the match running at our Guild Hall's wall. AND he had the flag. AND the enemies wouldn't touch him, so he couldn't drop the flag. We killed much more than they killed us, but through sheer amounts of morale boosts, and the fact that their res sigs were charging every 2 mins, we lost. That and the fact that I was Monking, and I suck at Monking

Deliberately I presume?

I remember pissing of a Minion factory (pre minion-cap of 10) in HA (courtyard) once because I was dropping Frozen whenever I could.
It pissed them off so much after a couple of times of just killing Frozen, they came after me with whatever they had build up at 6 mins to go. So I run back towards my team that was waiting patiently at our side of the altar, with a crapload of angry minions and 8 pissed of players at my tail.

Result: in the end everyone on my team except me is wiped out (I can run like a chicken!). Team resses at 4 min, sees the 2 opposing teams now in combat with each other, and the minion factory team had lost quite some of their punch because of lost minions. We sweep in and claim the victory. If the Minion factory was more patient, i'm pretty sure they would have had more then a fair chance of winning the match before burning out.

taunting skills ftw.

At least you got one of them as well. This is certainly among the most awesome things I've ever seen in GW.

There was the time we GvG'd and faced a monk using Conjure and Empathy...

The time I inspired Thunderclap, put it on an assasin, and used my shocking axe on him XD (on my boon prot)

My Me/N soul bind build is hilarious too!

When a W/Mo with no snares couldn't hit my boon prot and told me to "stop running you vagina"

Mine are usually quotes from people, especially things said on vent during matches.

Immediate gems that come to mind:

1. A good warrior friend of mine with a very strong Finnish accent, in HoH, 1 minute left on the timer, everyone's running around doing their own thing:

Loudly: "OMG, kill the F&*^(ing ghostly!"

Which, quickly became the warcry of my then HA guild, every altar match everyone would be yelling over vent "Kill the f^&%ing ghostly" usually before the timer started.

2. Same warrior as above would always say "Could be EoE" whenever any team had a /Mo, regardless of the mix of primaries. Inevitably, we hit an EoE team one day, quote: "FLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE its EoEEEEEEEEEE"

3. My own personal gem, which I've never been able to live down was a moment of vent rage. Versing a particularly bad spike team we continually lost members to the mistimed spikes, eventually something snaps. Quote: "OMG what the F^%k are you doing infuser, I could have run over and healing touched him in that time"

Guildies made a point of healing touching me randomly for weeks afterwards.

Perhaps...they don't exploit the pets with IWAY, they exploit the henchies!

J/k.

I don't have a lot, but it was funny getting yelled at by a nuker after he couldn't nail me with 4 consecutive Meteor Showers, "questioning" why I don't go down like PvE mobs and "suggesting" that I have some leet hax.

I mean we beat their IWAY with 1 Assassin, 1 Smite Monk and 4 henchies.

They had something like 3 W/R, 2 Necros and 1 Trapper iirc.
