Warriors using offhands and trying to be casters.

GvG vs. a TOP150 guild(it's what makes it so sad).

Warrior chasing me, uses Frenzy so I use Flame Bursts and keep kiting. After 2-3 Flame Bursts he uses Heal Sig. Too bad he forgot to cancel Frenzy, because at that moment I hit him with Rodgort's+Immolate and he drops.

HAHA, I love it.

55 monk in Tombs is freaking HILAROIUS. I was in a group, and we didn't KNOW he was a 55 until he DIED and we couldn't Res him. That was funny, in retrospect.

Didn't see this one:
Squishies like Mesmers and Eles charging into the MIDDLE of a group ahead of the tanks.

Oh, and I got a ranger PvP one:
Bringing ALMOST nothing but running skills. Escape/Dodge, etc. He didn't get killed very fast, but he didn't DO anything either. I suppose this also sorta goes over to those people who accidentally forget to reset from their running skills prior to entering Random Arena (LOL, I have done that... X D)

Hey i tried IW in PvE.... on my W/Me. I was messing around don't worry

Necro:

Going into UW with a 55monk, after forgetting to change stats from my order necro build. Still cleared the smites though.
Using Meteor Shower as an MM

Mesmer:

Spending 5minutes complaining about how i couldn't interrupt Vampiric Touch in The Wilds before realising it was a skill.

Ele:

Using Firestorm AFTER Meteor Shower (or in general)

Warrior:

PvP, running upto my trapper ranger at the start of the round, activating Frenzy and exploding in a mass of '52s'.

Monk:

55 tank in FoW running straight into Shatter Enchantment.

Ranger:

Me: "Leave the Armour i'll get it"
Ranger *runs to attack Jade Armour thinking Whirling Defences will save him*
*dies*
This is a particular favourite of mine,
B/P team to FoW, how much health do you have ranger, that vamp bow is degening pretty fast.... 'My Health is 271 out of 271' ..........

Ranger - Dancing in all towns and outposts, and then start saying DANCE to everyone, hoping for a dance party to start. Oh, and using poison arrow on mobs that constantly plague touch the entire party. Constantly using barrage, like it has to be brought with them everywhere they go.

Warrior - Anything they do really, but I like it when they have a good attitude, and make things funny for the rest of the group.

Monk - Burning up all those high energy skills on one person and spamming their energy to everyone. I have seen a monk try to tank with a shield and sword before too.

Necro - Anyone that creates a N/W and actually plays through the game like that, thinking they're some kind of death knight or something, and still doesn't have any knowledge of what their skills do. Kind of like the one mentioned before with a 12 in swordsmanship (I think I've met him before too). Thinking wells are so uber, and actually stopping to stand in one for a few minutes, "Hey guys, looky what I made, isn't it cooler than sliced bread?"

Elementalist - "Dancing naked for tips" or other things that are sexual, makes me sick anymore. Tanking is another one. Why do they always try to do this? Then yelling at the healer when they die, when they're further away than the tanks are.

Mesmer - Nothing, mesmers are perfect. Seriously, using backfire on everything or pure degen.

I think that about sums it up. Oops, forgot one for evey class, /dance. I like it when warriors taunt though, it looks goofy. I once saw a couple of warriors that were doing that repeatedly to people, and it made me laugh, they called themselves "the taunters", it was so funny.

I went on a skill capping PUG up in Mineral Springs. We brought along a N/E.

I was a E/Me, echo nuker.

I would do the normal ele thing - sit back and wait for the warrior to get aggro, target the biggest group that are hitting the warrior, and nuke it with meteor shower, then move to a different group and nuke that one with my echoed meteor shower. Basic stuff.

Stupid Necro would run up as I'm casting my first MS, and he would cast firestorm, scattering the mob, and wasting my spell. He'd do the same thing with my second MS with some other AOE spell (Searing Heat or something, I forget) and cause THAT mob to scatter.

So, effectively, that Necro was more effective in shutting down the team's major damage dealer better than an enemy mesmer.

When I asked him nicely (yes, nicely) to please stop casting firestorm as it was causing the mobs to scatter he got extremely indignant and argumentative. When we moved to the next mob, he did the same damn thing. This time, I lost my patience, and yelled at him to (!&#^$(^%&# stop casting firestorm and leave the nuking to a real nuker. He rage quit. We managed to continue on without him and eventually everyone capped their skills they wanted.

I swear, if you want to play a particular class, go MAKE one and play it. I get SO tired of people playing a secondary as their primary. There are very very few profession combinations where this will work. I find this especially in popular farming areas, where a particular build dominates parties and once popular professions are ignored (Tombs and B/P groups, for example). I swear, I've never seen so many e/r w/r in my life, lol.

So, FotM's that worked? How is that stupid? I agree in the since that I'd rather have people expand more, but it gets hard for people low levels to get into groups because of the misinterpretation of "rank"

Well, that particular N/E sounded bad, but the idea's not bad: Kill things, get energy, kill more things.

To change the thread a little bit, what are the worse class combos? I'm curious, because I'm pretty sure you can make a decent build with any combo...

Get a life, quit trying to make yourself feel better by putting other people down. Thats is all you are doing with these stupid trolls disguised as 'harmless fun', half the shit described could be one time mistakes. You all sound like idiots to me.
When do you all get the time to sit and monitor the other players use of skills ?
Ill tell you when, when you are lying on the ground dead.
Learn to play for yourself and quit worrying about the mistakes others make(blaming them for own your inadequacies), and maybe you'll quit making so many yourself, then maybe, just maybe you'll stay alive a little longer next time.

So, does this fall under Irony, or Hypocrisy? I always get confused.

LOL, HEY! I take offense!

No, just kidding. We should hook up sometime, I am the ULTIMATE "good attitude" tanker! *preens in self admiration*

No, but it's true, Warriors are the stupidest profession. It's because too many beginners use it, so there are a LOT of players with little to no skills using it.
