So now we're going from 'best skill use' to 'best combination of skills'?

I used Cry of Frustration on Cry of Frustration of enemy, which led to him spamming profanities in all chat and things about me being a hacker, anyway he Cried out in Frustration

It really doesn't matter.

On an unrelated note your icon gives me the willies.

Quite a story you have there.

Mmm...

you guys don't see good usage of skills often, do you.

Just go on obs mode, and look for gvg games involving [dR] Dark Alley

Just watch Tommy monk.

That's probably the best skill use compacted I've ever seen compacted into an individual. It's fairly impressive, no matter how times you've seen it.

That's why I said best skill use in PvP is redundant.

killing a whole balanced team (necro, monk, warrior, ranger) in RA with my Warrior. the ranger was too bad to stop my healing, so once the necro went down (pressure on the monk, then spiked the nec), i killed the monk, necro was ressed, killed the necro, killed the ranger, and the warrior was easiest and last... some nooby dude who wasnt really dealing damage anyhow lol..

wasnt really all that amazing, but once it was over, they all practically devoted their gaming to "getting good like that" (not that great lol) and to this day PM me updating how "good" they're getting.

@disscussion, the skill use was Vital Boon and Sig of Pious on a hammer warrior (dev, crush, mighty, frenzy, rush, vital, sig, res 12+1+1, earth 12, 3 str)

the heal is sweet in RA/AB and it allows me to keep ticking like mad. :P

Nothing special today, maybe a W/E locking a monk down with shock/bull's...

Excuse me?

Tommy's usage of Aegis and the philosophy behind is use of it still remains to me a brilliant usage of a powerful but at times unwieldy skill.

Can't think of any specific moments at the time. Just go on obs mode.

You can not use skills well in PvP with ease, most people do.

I.E. a notable top level player who despite his good pressure, couldn't quite understand when to not use Frenzy.

For me, it's anything that involves a combination of PUGs and Unyielding Aura.

Don't have much time to take notice of what others are doing all the time, playing mesmer i tend to be casting fast and furious round the whole area of battle,

I tend to think i have done something good in AB when after of two assassins comming up to kill me and being wiped with my fast casting air nuker build i find i'm being chased by several of the opposing team

I look like an ass no matter what I do (its my face really) =P So might aswell.

2v2 tourney

Ranger partner dead, so focus fire is being put on me.
, I activated dark escape and went around the ledge (isle of solitudes map)
Ele couldn't get me as I was just out of aggro range, I had long enough Dark escape time to get to the other side and activate Res sig, taking half damage of course.
By this, I attacked the monk, had her in a daze, Ranger was dying again, Ele had him knocked down, Tab'd to ele, interrupted the Obsidian Flame (that would of killed) shouted Ranger to run, while I took front of damage. Activated Horn's on the Monk, and quickly changed to the ele, Activating another combo >.> The monk needed to heal itself bad, and I had to save my ranger (with no res sig anymore) so I had to fore go the Monk, as the daze just about ran off.
Ranger came back and pressured monk, >.> got monk dazed again.

Ranger gave a nice Burning arrow and we finished off monk then ele.

>.> Although I guess my story is nooby.

Sekkira · Nov 13, 2007, 12:57 AM // 00:57

Well this one time I played in a full Wammo team for kicks and we got in a match with Te. We cut the crap and ran straight past each other to take the guild lord. We took theirs down just a few seconds faster due to having an entire team dedicated to dps but it declared it a draw.

Wait, we were talking about best skill use right?

ensoriki · Nov 13, 2007, 01:07 AM // 01:07

Actually now that I think about it, Best skill use?
How the hell does that work out?

Mesmer: Monk your taking damage
Monk: Im using Life sheath!
Mesmer: OMFG you used Life Sheath to protect your life!? THATS THE BEST WAY TO USE IT EVER!!11!!!pizza!!!!

You can really only use a skill the way it can be used >.>.

I think you mean best Skill combinations you've seen, as that can get a little more...exciting?

Best skill use is actually in TA team I had today.
Went with an assassin and 2 rits (full faction team ftw, got to 9 wins before I had to go eat)
The rit was taking damage, he could heal, but he ran to the other rit, who also heals and gives more defense to the team. and dropped the ashes knocking Both enemys pressuring them down. Instead of just saving himself >.>

I liked that.

More Outrage · Nov 13, 2007, 01:17 AM // 01:17

My fav was using an air ele spiker in ab. Got pwned by an ass with a monkey on his back. Next time I meet him the monk was busy just out of agro so we ran toward each other and I pwned his ass and it happened again and again, lol. Serves him right.

And the necro ranger toucher who kept pwning me in ab after ab so I get out my mesmer and load up echo/diversion (and blackout - 1st time I used it and last time, didn`t know it disabled all my skills aswell). Serves us both right.

Halmyr · Nov 13, 2007, 04:01 AM // 04:01

Ok, posted this in off-topic, but for those who don't go there.
Basicly this is what append:

We both run up to each other, when I target him, he cast Shadow form.

So instead of running up to him and loosing out straight to some massive spike. I just run around. When Shadow form ends, I turn around and use drunken blow on him

*BANG* 1 shot kill.

He then says "Only idiots run" and rage quits

Sorry I follow Sun Tzu and the eastern ways of war instead of the Western ways XD

Omniclasm · Nov 13, 2007, 04:08 AM // 04:08

Does me casting Crippling Anguish + Conjure Phantasm on a Dervish, then maintaining them on him while I walk away from him backwards count?

I know, nothing special at all, but it is hilarious to do.
