Meet Killroy!

This was the funniest mad dwarf I have seen. The funniest mission. Do not think about grabbing objects and casting prep. spell, THE GUY IS GONE! I had a lot of fun doing this quest.

Ûhm, I think Anet was trying to get some WoW elements, stealing the Leroy Jenkins Idea and putting it into a npc. Just look at the shout he uses and the speech buble above him and he starts to fight. Its really funny he rushes the entire way but dosnt die and nice fellow to accompy you.

Vicha · Sep 09, 2005, 05:15 PM // 17:15

Well, I had to do this mission 3 times cause, yes, he goes strait to suicide if you do not follow him closely. At one point, fighting near the crushing machines, the whole group attacked a bunch of foes on the right side while this crazy dwarf went left. I was laughing like crazy. Casting Fire Storm and attacking, and at the same time clicking like crazy on the compass! "Ding. Ding. Ding. Youhou, the mad dwarf is getting killed here!" It was too late. Funny nevertheless.

Well I followed the good dwarf with my heal monk friend whilst the npc where hanging in the back enjoying to watch us do the mission *evil slow-poke npc's*

killroy is one tough sob ... I ran with my monk and hardly ever needed to seed him or heal him ... I basically just threw Balthazaars on him and let him run rampant ... the npcs were no where to be found.

capitalist · Sep 09, 2005, 05:52 PM // 17:52

He is my new favorite character

I have to admit, Killroy is one of my favs of the update. I think its great that everyone in my guild was laughing the whole mission. We actually had a great time and really no problem with the mission.

Hats off to Anet for this small bit of humor in the update.

Also, how many of you would like that skill good ole Killroy kept casting on ya? NiOce!

Raz Silverwing · Sep 09, 2005, 07:07 PM // 19:07

Yeah i could cast 3 balthazar's auras on him in a minute because of that spell.

Maybe Anet should add it to warriors?

Final battle, Kilroy runs straight at a group of five casters. I run my War in to melee them while an Ele backs me up. Meanwhile, Kilroy has turned left and aggroed about five melees, including two enslaved ettins who make a beeline for me. And, still not satisfied, he runs to the final group where the boss he hates is and finally starts fighting the Priest of Sorrows.

At this point, I'm doing my best to stay alive so the Ettins and two remaining casters leave the Ele alone. I get lucky when one of the monks notices my plight and starts healing like a madman(or like Kilroy, maybe?

). We finally get the Ettins down and I run past the rest of the group, merrily hacking away at the melees, not noticing that Kilroy's all on his own. I help him finish off the caster just as the entire group turns their focus onto the boss.

BEST MISSION EVER.

Killroy houses Rurik's reincarnated kamikazee spirit.

TomD22 · Sep 09, 2005, 10:12 PM // 22:12

This was the best, funniest mission EVER. we nearly failed it at first, bcos we all stood around LOL-ing rather than chase him. and then the whole thing was a frantic rush from group to group, with his shout on us. Definitly the most fun and funny part of GW to date.

Killroooooy Stonekiiiin!

Glasswalker · Sep 09, 2005, 11:00 PM // 23:00

Oh, sure. It's funny when an NPC does it. This forum was full of warrior hate because noobs do exactly that. Some of them even scream out "LEEEEEEROOOOOOOY" as they do it.

Oh wait I thought this was KillJoy! Sorry...

Andy_M · Sep 09, 2005, 11:38 PM // 23:38

I like it when he does not go for the obvious group of mobs, but takes a turn and charges into another group leaving you to deal with two agro'd groups.

chris_nin00 · Sep 10, 2005, 01:25 AM // 01:25

I loved this mission. You guys probably know why

Kaospryx · Sep 10, 2005, 02:02 AM // 02:02

I thought this quest was a joke. You can prepare and wait for energy and health to regenerate, he doesn't actually aggro packs of monsters until a human player gets close to him. He just stands a few feet away from a mob. His shout made things ridiculously easy.

Shayul · Sep 10, 2005, 07:58 AM // 07:58

Easiest quest ever.

Seriously, his shout does everything for you. No one in my group even came close to dying...not even Killroy. (Of course, I was using henchies, so that might be why...)

spiritofcat · Sep 10, 2005, 01:10 PM // 13:10

Yeah, I did it with henchies, and he was kind enough to wait just before the next group of baddies until we were al ready.

Ednemak · Sep 10, 2005, 01:18 PM // 13:18

rofl sounds hilarious

Desthe · Sep 10, 2005, 03:12 PM // 15:12

The greatest part of that quest is the very beginning. It's kinda low-key (how anything in that quest can be low key is beyond me), but if you notice when he rushes ahead, he brings the aggro back to your group! I think that's an homage (insult?) to all those Aggro wranglers who like to bring everything to your party. :P
