Guild Wars 2

I did it.
It took about 20 minutes but I did it.

I don’t get it. I’m not familiar with what you’re doing either.

Were you trying to die or dodge roll?

It took me twenty minutes to successfully die.

And is this a good or a bad thing?

Question is which level you were.

Couldn’t you just go to downed state and not heal? I guess I still don’t get it haha.
Nevermind, I checked the spot out. I thought it put you into downed state. It just deals 1 damage each time.

That’s.. actually kind of impressive. XD

It’s the little accomplishments in life that make it worth living. ^^

Congrats on your death (if that’s the right thing to say).

Ogden Nash poem.

I’m guessing the OP did the same thing I tried – dodge roll into the center of the training circle and then just switch auto-run on so you’re constantly hitting the red ring and don’t dodge at all to see what happens.

When I tried it though I got bounced around a lot and eventually it threw me out of the outer circle and my character started running off.

It’s much easier to die via falling damage quicker than 20 minutes. All you need to do is go east of Divinity’s Reach into the Shaemoor graveyard and climb the fence to drop down that cliff.

Also possible to die quickly if you go out of the Black Citadel to Barradin’s Tomb. Almost as quick.

Last, but not least, it is incredibly simple to die in Rata Sum via falling down the central infinite pit. Probably within ten minutes if you skip all cutscenes and dialogue.

I think a few people are missing the point.

Is there a point?

. . . okay, level with me, because I’m not getting it. What’s the point here?

No, I did it on the outer ring and I rolled into the middle ring at the end so that the person who was trying to stop me from dying wouldn’t be in the screenshot, but they still followed me.

Because reading titles is hard.

I recently rerolled a norn warrior, and with the NPE the default Warrior healing skill has been changed from Healing Surge to Heal Signet. In the first Personal Story instance that you get at level 10 the Sons of Svanir opponents were unable to outdamage the passive heal from the signet.

The point is the dodge tutorial doesn’t kill you and it’s very hard to die in it, because it throws you out. He’s not trying to say something bad about the game or anything. The OP is showing off after an accomplishment.

I wouldn’t have had that patience.

It’s just a fun thing to do. Good job, OP. lol

DrAntagonist.8623:

Yes, the title “I died in 20 minutes” tells me exactly what I need to know. Oh, and the screenshot shows me something but . . . I had no idea what that was smart-aleck.

So, if you’re going to snark about me not looking at the image? Sure, fine, I’ll cop to that.

But . . . the title?

Get some better material.

See, here I thought it was just trying to see if you could still die quickly. All the talk lately about how the NPE is “babying” new players, figured it was about ‘they can’t die’.

I made the same assumption at first. You’re not alone in that.

Fair enough, I suppose it is your right to self-define.

Tobias Trueflight.8350:

Self-define what? You aren’t even making any sense.

DrAntagonist.8623:

And it isn’t “I died in 20 minutes” it’s “It took me 20 minutes to die”, so yeah.

On my screen the title is, “I died in 20 minutes,” not, “it took me 20 minutes to die.”

This thread is like looking at a still picture of an Abbott and Costello routine painted by Salvador Dali.

I had the same thing typed out. I just didn’t think it was worth posting haha.

No you legitimately don’t make any sense. You can’t read basic English and you can’t speak it either, then you make a big fuss when people don’t understand your random cacophony of words.

Please, go on. I’m delighted to hear what you have to say and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

So, the title is suddenly just as confusing as your rant to “read the title dumbkitty”.

I don’t know if that’s ironic, or if irony needs to be redefined again.

An admin changed it, for no reason. And in the admin’s doing so, started an argument.

Who’s arguing now? I’m too busy laughing.

Lol. I honestly thought you were a complete moron when you said ‘Because reading titles is hard’ when all the title said was ‘I died in 20 minutes’.
I’m really sorry for that, you have my apologies. Whoever changed the title did a really bad job here, even though the arising argument probably wasn’t intended.

Yeah, exactly. I thought you were morons because I was sure the title explained it, and you thought I was a moron because the title was a sentence from the thread. It’s not my fault, it’s not your fault, it’s random admin’s fault.

New title is funny though.

Hi everyone,

Since this thread couldn’t stay constructive, we’ll now close it.

Thank you for your understanding.
