We already have a 'Stupid Moments that You've Seen' RA thread, but what about stuff that YOU have done? This thread is specifically for moments where either you trolled really hard or actually did something to help someone else out.

For instance, I was playing just yesterday as a Monk and I was on a team with another Monk (can't remember the other two), and we had started off really well, won a few matches, and finally hit another 2-monk team. Neither of us were willing to give up, and the match dragged out longer and longer. Finally, we got a kill, but they got a kill right afterwards, so it was still a draw, and nearing about 1 minute now. As there were about 15 seconds left on the clock with no signs of damage coming in, the mesmer on the other team decides to throw Backfire and VoR on me. Knowing that if someone didn't die both teams would end in a draw, I decide, 'what the hell,' and start spamming my spells as fast as I can, and immediately got down to about 100 hp, where the other monk started healing me. I pushed the self-destruct buttons even faster, and just as I die, the screen pops up and says "Congratulations to the [other] team!" GG's.

And then there was the time when some trolls in the waiting room inspired me to join them. So I roll a ranger, and fit my skills, and hop straight into RA. Matches would start, I'd run forward, throw up Frozen Soil in a covered place, and then proceed to run from everyone the whole match (with a pretty damn good running build, tbh). Several times I got the timer to run out (mostly in D'Alessio and Crypt areas where it was big enough to run around in), with much dancing and taunting involved. I got lots of 'go bak to pve nub' and 'thanks for the frozen soil dumbass' and simply proceeded to tell them that their troll food was wonderfully tasty.

What about you?

Timer's about to hit 8... Monk is low hp retreating, me and derv manages to get him stuck..

8:02, hes stuck
8:01, i get ready to kill him
8:00, oops... killed him a sec early O.o

he gets rezzed, and some how we get rolled. lose 2 glads...

Later i think back and its prob cuz im used to spiking in 3,2,1, where you use ur spike skill at 1... was thinking the timer as the spike caller in vent.

D'oh... too much power in ma builds...

I was doing RA once with a crappy monk build. (didn't had any selfhealing.) We had a healer rt, a sin and a thumper.

The counter was 2 times at zero with no deaths. In 1 match the opposit monk left with 3 sec on the clock. we got 10 wins

Mo/W
13+1 healing prayers
12 +1 divine favor
skills: Mending, Frenzy.
Equipment: Random stuff, on weapon: 20vsHex, and some other crappy stuff.
What happened: I chose to annoy some people and see what they would do. I went in with that build, Frenzy mender, and I pinged them the build. I asked them to stay back and let me pwn, and my team started killing. Bam! 3 dmg. Critical@#$ 5dmg! ... We won 8 times. Lol.

Some time in RA a while back my team wipped and I 4v1'd the other team (who was out of resses) on my melshot ranger. Given the other team's fail excuse for builds it wasn't that hard to do, but it was still satisfying none the less.

seriously, who cares at all?

Spamming Blood is Power in the beginning of the match so i die before the match evenstarts... Extreme Flaming, but it was fun for the last 10 minutes of the day.

I was playing a thumper in RA once. My 3 team members were all monks, and all of them raged. So it was me vs 4 enemies. As I had no chance to win the game, I started to run around in circles for some reason. 2 enemies got bored and raged the game. That left them with an assassin and a monk. That monk thought it was a good idea to go afk for a minute, so I was up against an assassin, which I killed easily.
Monks don't bring res sigs ofc and I even managed to kill him, so I won the game.

This. RA tales are about as interesting as PvE tales tbh.

Referred to as 12+1+1. But yeah, kinda dumb to bother pointing out. /wastingtimeftw

Winning 10 RA matches and 3 TA matches without a monk on my cripshower warrior. We did have a spear Rt/P though, so that + meteor shower is pretty strong.

Any match you win because of poison degen from moving to the poison marsh is a good match.

I think if you stay on a 2monk team you are failing and deserve to hit another lame 2 monk team.

I got an epic story to tell.

So I'm trapping in RA, and we end up on the ring of fire map. I ping my build and 2 of them leave straight away. I tell my ally just to sit back and watch me solo it (Didn't really see it happening but always good to talk the talk). So the enemy team sees me trapping and even with a monk they are too scared to go into it, so the timer starts getting low. One of them decides to run through the traps, and the others follow behind very closely. Bam 4 kills and the timer hits 0!

Got some screenies of it on my other comp, was still one of the coolest RA moments I've had.

Zquest RA Day. I've always been a fan of necros myself, so i created a necro (pvp, obv) and loaded up a waeken knees build. I love snaring too, but i thought it was too hallsy but meh. Went in, and got an SF ele, a r11 zrank and r10 monk with a trim, an earthshaker, and me. I pretty much just snared all day and spamed while rechargin. We had a 16 win streak (6 in TA ofc) and then lost to a shovespike (i think it was some spike like that, but gimmicky nontheless). Most epic day i'd had, and a nice amount of zcoins too!

im not sure why but for some reason i was under the impression that useless RA story threads were delete fodder around here

Once i ran around for 4 hours before the other team just gave up and left the game, i've still got the screen somewhere along with my 3 hour HA game.

Since they added the timer RA has gone downhill.
