"Way" - Guild Wars Forums

Ultima pyromancer · Aug 11, 2008, 10:33 PM // 22:33

Ok this has bugged me for some time. Now the first time i heard of "Way" being used was IWAY back in 06, then it went on to Vimway when HA went 6 man.

Now my question is, where and why did "Way" become a term for pretty much all team builds other than spike? And how did it end up being a PVE Term?

Am i missing something, or is it just another misinterpreted phenemenon?

Thanks in advance lol

Iway coined the term, then people stared using it because your running a cetain build. EG vimway is victory is mine -way. Way just mean build/team/group.

I hope that makes some sort of sense

Because it's easy and people caught on to it?

If it's a spike, people call it [xxx]spike. Rspike, bloodspike

If it's balanced, people call it balanced. LOLRAINBOWSPIKE

If it's a build focused on a tactic or skill, people call it -way because of the vernacular the IWAY produced.

It's really that simple.

Any "way" build generally is focused around 1 skill or build that is used as the key part of that "way".

If there is a single skill or build that can NOT be removed from your party and the party will still function then it is concidered a "way" build.
