Guild Wars 2

So name which NPCs you’ve seen in the personal story who are just plain crazy.

My vote goes to Magistrate Seiran who, despite being an elementlist, has no cooldown on her Ride the Lightning, has a Mist Form that lasts a day, and; oh yeah, can use freakin Portal.

Tybalt

At the moment where he sacrificed himself out of the blue for you and Mr. Bland Salad to escape the blandness of Claw Island.
How the hell was Tybalt supposed to hold the undead off? He’s a OoW agent, the guys that hide during the day and backstab their enemies while they’re taking a kitten . And I was supposed to believe Tybalt’s last stand somehow made a difference? He’d be torn limb from limb in seconds! One of the most forced moments of the PS.

Countess Anise!

She spawned all 10 of those phantasms at once! (Yes, there are ten! The two in front of Serpentine are hard to see.)

How about Trahearne that spawned like 10 Flesh Golems at once?

I just wanted to say Countess Anise isn’t known for summoning Phantasm’s. I’m not sure if those are supposed to be there by Anise or if it was just a bug/glitch. Anise is only special for enchantments/shields. She mostly makes defensive spells. Illusionary swordsman are not her thing. I think what you just experienced is just a slight glitch!

While Anise and Sieran can do some impressive things they don’t really come close to the force of insanity and destruction that is Kilroy Stonekin.

When foreigners think of Dwarves, most picture a stereotypical image of a drunken brawler, rushing headlong into battle, screaming a strange battle cry and fighting to the death over age-old grudges, uncollected debts, or ancestral vendettas. Kilroy Stonekin is that Dwarf.

Kudu is clearly an engineer, yet he wears light armor.

(No, I will never let this go.)

Yeah. Though what I find most ridiculous about it is that there was no reason to make him a Martyr in the first place. And I’m not just talking about the fact that an Engineer is always more useful on the OTHER SIDE of a door when trying to hold it up against a Seige.. ….WHY? SO WE COULD TROT 40FT BEHIND US to some get-away ship? We’ve already covered this one in Sanctum Cay… you don’t have to kill EVERYTHING that’s coming for your boat unless you don’t know how to do the Bonus the easy way. * rolls eyes *

I mean just look at his depressed puppydog Features… he was a walking martyr already… That sad cubicle prisoner that is also implied to have blown up his own warband as a failed Engineer. You don’t need to remove that kind of element from the story to make people feel MORE sorry for him. Just having him around in your sights day in day out does it 10x better. IE: he’d make a much better Martyr simply by retiring to our home instance and rambling sadly & incoherently about apples like Fadden.

I really feel like they took it too far here with a character we already felt pretty sorry for and it just works against them by NOT having him be a daily presence in our instances. As we see later: even corrupted vessels can have their Ghosts somewhere else in the map while a dragon controls their bodies. So maybe Anet has a chance for redemption here beyond an insanely expensive Ascended Accessory. But as long as they keep doing this Living-Salesy distraction stuff instead, they’ll never bother to set things right with this poor SOB.
