Guild Wars 2

Have an epic Marionette success story to tell? Let’s hear it!

Here’s mine. Early this morning on a Blackgate overflow we failed Chain 2 once and then Chain 3 three times – leaving us with like <5% left on the Aethercannon energy bar.

At that point there’s no chance, right? Wrong! Somehow we completed the last 3 chains and succeeded! (Despite the fact at the end we were literally one-champ away from filling up the cannon energy bar o.o)

The elation of everyone at the end-chest afterwards was really awesome to see and be a part of – definitely made that a very memorable fight

So – what’s your story?

Once we had the Aethercannon at 90% and we were fighting the phase 4 champions, the dogs. I am in one of the platforms with 4 more random players. It was one of our first attempts and we didn’t know what to expect, so we dodged the orange areas and suddenly… we all 5 die. None of us noticed that blue area is what really hurts, not orange ones. It was about to be a fail, all other rooms were doing ok except mine. Lucky for me I am a warrior.

I told the group to not stand in the blue areas, I did revive with vengeance, used the banner of war, it did Revived all the 4 players and then i died 10 seconds later. The 4 guys in my group managed to kill the champion, they destroyed the generator with 4 seconds on the timer and the chain was broken. Later on the marionette died and we won the event.

I never felt more needed than that. Someone from the other rooms told them that a warrior sacrificed herself to rez the other 4 guys and it made me smile. A couple of players were saying “that’s our hero! build her a statue!” and stuff like that.

That’s a war story that i’ll never forget ^^
