Guild Wars 2

Best thread EVER!

Serophous.9085:

when you run down a candy cane bridge and start taking fall damage…

kitten!!!!

So this! Now I need to replicate it so that I can take a Screen!.

When you get your progression reset with no compensation or valid reason.

Seeing all above…
A great addition would be /facepalm… :P
Anet DevOps…please? XD

When you are dead on the ground and there is a lootbag next to your body.

Atlas.9704:

When that other Ranger knocks back the enemy and you lose range.

^^
This x100 was going to be mine too! Buff up, prepare that burst, unleash on mob… wtf, mob just kb’ed halfway across the screen… oh useless, longbow ranger used his skill 4 in the zerg…

FrouFrou.4958:

When you are dead on the ground and there is a lootbag next to your body.

When you run back there after respawn and find nothing.

You cried? I would have cried.

Dat wooden chest could have been a precursor. :O

when trenchcoats count as medium armor

Press n2 on mesmer staff in pvp and end up in a secret underwater level below the playfield. Multiple times.
Or press n2 on mesmer staff and get stuck in a rock.

Novuake.2691:

Wooden is only for rares, steel chests give precursors/exotics and ascended.

But indeed, needing to respawn after big fights on the other side of the map in wvw and leaving all those bags :S

Using ranger #1 and #2 sword leaps at inappropriate times…

Thanks! Didn’t know that!
Still hurts though.

When everyone forgets that not only rangers have knockbacks

Not being able to knockback a mob off a ledge #justgw2things

Mea.5491:

When you spend an hour on the character creation screen and you finally get ingame and notice you forgot to change one small thing on your character.

Oh my god this. I keep doing this. It drives me crazy!

When you buy an expensive mini, just to get it from the next present.

The day gw2 trolls you

“Steel Chest mechanic was introduced as part of the Flame and Frost: Prelude update.” – wiki

This SS was made before that, and before aoe-loot. Also had several stuck-in-mid-air lootbags at that time. Beauty of WvW, you never knew what you’ve left behind

When game lags every evening and thousands get massive packet loss and nothing gets fixed for over 3 months. #Justgw2things

A picture says more than a thousand words or angry forum posts.

when you’re fighting one of the new bosses and you’re well outside of the red circle but somehow get hit by it’s stun anyway…

When you use Light Dash and Assisted Leap together for the first time… <3

Garrisyl.7402:

A picture says more than a thousand words or angry forum posts.

oh my, that is so sad!

Zalladi.4652:

See the attachments; self-explanatory.

When your character gets stuck in animation and it turns out to be super pretty

When you get “Obstructed” even though there’s nothing in the way (stupid pvp maps…)

Neural.1824:

When “nearest target” is that random non-aggressive critter over there on the other side of the aggressive mob of monsters trying actively to kill you.

Omg this. Esp. if the random non-aggressive is surrounded by other random non-aggressives and you’re a staff fire ele and you hit the surrounding ones too. And they’re warthogs and your earth shield has just ended.

When you are in a small group “secretly” setting up trebs or catas to take that tower and that one guy brings the enemy zerg to your position.

When you wonder about a strange conversation and understand after getting a special item.

Plexxing.2978:

When you wonder about a strange conversation and understand after getting a special item.

What is dis? How do I not know of dis?

Looks like the enchanted treasure chest, its in the rare collections tab. Don’t worry Novuake, you’re not missing much from it.
When you spend as much time putting your outfit together as you do putting your build together. Gotta look amazing when you kill someone

This is for people I know:

When you discover a new armor combination and level a whole new character just to wear it.

When you have that one item you want to sell because you don’t want, but it is account bound.

When the sorroundings of a downed ally suddendly become a endless pool of deadly AoE.

When a flock of moa in Queensdale is more dangerous than Zhaitan…

welp might as well join this forum thread train

Lunacy Solacio.6514:

Omg yes! This is why I have two mesmers….

When the person who comes to rez you doesn’t know an invisible thief is stomping you.

When there are three rangers in the group and they keep slingshotting the target around.

When planning to disengage…Last Refuge procs in the middle of CnD animation.

Branden Gee.2150:

When you open a box to find another box.

When a dev thinks this is sad enough to make a joke about it, but it still happens.
(No offense, Brandon)

When you mistake a silver portrait for a bronze one.

Watching a world boss die a fraction of a second before you get in range.

Leveling a class to 80 only to deeply regret your choice of race.

Being unable to link poi/way points during daily events due to many many commander tags.

Dying often because you can’t move through characters in combat only to realize it’s optional.

When you get messages suppressed when trying to help people find stuff on a map. Usually right at this point: “you can find the event at this wp…” YOUR MESSAGE WAS SUPPRESSED (due to excessively trying to help people – usually new people who are totally lost – find things).

When you change your hair color to match your armor

When you disconnect and the world boss was at 5% health.

When Skyhammer pops, but you realize you are on your engineer.

Jazz.1870:

When you disconnect and the world boss was at 5% health.

I prefer to disconnect the second before he dies. It feels more meaningful then.

Shamelessly bumping a good thread on the forum…

When you get really excited about an expansion that doesn’t offer new gear tiers or new level cap and you actually sigh in relief.

When the Shatterer’s crippling neck injury gets him killed
When the big world boss golem is foiled by an easily removed box.

I’m still always surprised that those things have no been changed. :/

Hey, I call that a nod to realism. Have you met technology? We should be able to murder that thing with a few well placed buckets of water.

When you slip down an inch on a hill and take massive falling damage. And then, when you jump off a cliff and take almost no falling damage.

Also, when jumping puzzles and diving achievements have killed you more than PvE mobs and PvP players . . . combined.

We really should get back to the picture posting though.

Adds a bit extra!
