My most memorable moment was fighting a runner in Competition Arena. We had been chasing her for around 15 minutes, and then we decide to stop. We sit in a corner next to each other, grab some drinks, talk in teams, and generally ignore the runner. The runner... aware that we were no longer chasing her, parks herself right next my sword warrior and starts spamming her rank emote right in his face and saying stuff about how Arena noobs are no match for a leet Tombsperson.

The other warrior goes "now" in teamspeak. I take one step forward. Hamstring. Blackout. The entire group decends on her and wastes her in less than six seconds.

I was so happy.

I try to get into a group, but they say blaa blaa you're not rank 6 yet etc... I had some friends in that group and I really needed the fame and I knew that it was a good group, so I was pretty pissed at that moment. I took 2 guildies and formed a r3+ pug group. We went trough every map in Tombs to HoH, where we met that team I was trying to get in. We would have won but they were a ranger spike and interrupted our hero when we started capping at 40 seconds left. We were better, and that's enough for me.

One day while in Ventari's Refuge, my Ranger steps outside to collect on a mission reward. As you know, there is always a fight going on there, which doesn't quite advance upon the guys you talk to. For the hell of it, I casually start plinking arrows at a Maguuma warrior in the distance. He croaks without moving a muscle, and drops a gold bow for me! Truly, the easiest bit of farming I've ever done.

I got me a new memorable moment just today!

I was in Lions Arch random arena with my mesmer, specced for anti-warrior. We had won 3-4 consecutive victories when we came up against a team which was very similar to ours. We were very evenly matched - neither team could kill the other! After ten minutes the lone warrior on both teams bailed, and we still couldn't kill eachother.
After 12 minutes we agreed to stop fighting, and had a little dance party.
We agreed to resolve the deadlock by rolling dice, but it turns out you can't roll dice in the arena, so in the end we all just quit.

I'm so tired of seeing people being rude, bail at spawn if it's the "wrong" composition of the team, or who bail if the team hasn't won in three minutes, so it was real nice to see that there are friendly, sporting, people playing.

Respect to both my teammembers and the opposing team!

Most memorable moment for me...hmm theres several good ones but the funniest one. A little while back I decided to start a monk. No one else in my guilde had a pre char at the time so I was on my own. Didn't want to spend much time there so I only did the quests that gave me skills and got ready to leave. Got to the pvp part and saw the "xx joins game" for the other side...they had 4 real people while my team was me and henchies. I had stefan reyna and orion...fun. So I say in all chat...wow this kind of sucks I'm stuck by myself with henchies. The response I got was smiley faces alot of lol 's lmao's and this should be easy. I think I was lvl 3 maybe 4. They were all 5 and higher. So the fight starts and I ping targets use bane sig and flare (obviously i was monk/ele). Surprisingly I won. 6-1 the only reason I died is becuase I ran back out of thier mages firestorm and got pinned to the rez shrine by the henchies and then thier ele dropped fire storm again =0(. I died with 1 sec left on clock. Looking at all chat there were a bunch of sad faces and omg wtf happened...how did we loose? messages. I couldnt stop laughing for awhile. Sometimes you gotta love henchies...they know how to listen when you ping =0).

Frost Gate:
Finishing this mission with a pug while lying face down dead. The team was doing well, but people dropped out (quite early) until there were just 3 of us left. We decided to take the challenge and continue. After we activated the first of the 3 gate switch (last part of mission), a bad aggro left myself and another warrior dead. The remaining ranger couldn't res either of us as she had already used her res sig earlier on one of the droppers. The ranger asked about returning to the outpost and restarting with a new team, but we managed to persuade her to continue. One ranger against 10 summit drawves was a great sight to see. While she was doing hit and runs, us deads were cheering her on. After activating the final switch, the waiting for the cutscene was an intense, long wait, especially with more summit drawves running towards the ranger. It came and we all cheered.

Doppy:
Beating my Doppelganger with my mesmer but dropping dead at the last moment. The fight started, I threw Backfire and Empathy on doppy. And doppy did the same to me. I did nothing while doppy cast spells and fired arrows. The arrows were hurting me while my hexes hurt doppy. We both ended up with very low health. Doppy fired the last arrow killing itself, bonus Xp appears, arrow struck me, I die and get the 'Return to Outpost' message.

When i was with ym first character and was after searing and lvl 2

Philedius · Mar 16, 2006, 08:31 PM // 20:31

My most memorable GW moment must be when Prince Rurik died. I laughed so hard that day. :P

I think I took about 20 screenshots off him before he died!!

And of course the time I finished a mission without doing a thing, or almost. At the beginning of the mission I just rushed into some monster and the killed me, the others didn't want to res me because I aggroed alot of dudes :P

So I was dead until the mission was over. :P

Well this just happened to me yesterday. I've never farmed anything before, but just made a 55 Necro, so thought I'd practice a bit. I just tried various locations, and tried Iron Mines cause I read on here some people do it. Figure I'd die pretty quick, cause I'm not too familiar with 55'ing, but killed the first two groups in like two minutes. I get a gold drop from a Stone Summit, and it's a Superior Absorption!! Sure I died soon after that - but still...

MasterThrawn · Mar 16, 2006, 10:41 PM // 22:41

Oh - and first time doing Tombs with my guild. They helped me through since I'd never done it, but I got two greens on that trip!! That was nice.

Similar story here. Yesterday I tweaked an E/Me Earth/Inspiration farming build I found here (props to whoever came up with the original, I forget) and joined in the now-popular mass troll slayings. Not for cash, mind you. I am in serious need of EXP for skill points.

What did I get on the first run?

Black dye.

I was still in pre-searing and there was this girl who was always in a good mood. She would just skip around and play her flute while telling the most amazing stories of the other townsfolk.
Good times, good times.

Someone in my new guild asked if I could help them do some Yaks quests with my lvl20 wammo. He was a mesmer, so we got Alesia and headed out. We got through it pretty quickly, and I got a black and silver dye within 2 minutes of each other. I actually missed the silver(!) and he pointed it out. After getting the quests done and getting to the next town he thanked me and said he was only 50g away from getting his new armor. I gave him 1k because he was good luck and made my gold stash double.

My most noob moment was when I realized we needed Alesia because my wa/mo made it all the way up to the desert without having healing breeze.
