What do you think are the most interesting?

one of the most interesting that I’ve seen, is the conversation between two Sylvari in Brisban Wildlands, Thermaine and Brenalynn.

They are both found at the Watchful Source Waypoint in Brisban Wildlands, inside one of the buildings. Brenalynn is trying to understand Thermaine’s choice of becoming a Warrior and his passion for fighting, as she is a peaceful Sylvari ( i think she’s a gardener of some sort, i’ll need to go back and listen to the conversation again), and Thermaine’s explanation contains some of the coolest NPC lines I’ve heard in the game.

some of his quotes (not in order):

“I fight like a Sylvari. My blade flows and cuts like a cold wind in the forest.”
“I am no placid gardener, no gentle guardian. Thorns bite, vines choke, and I kill.”
“The singing of a sword is like a breeze through the trees.”
“I am a Warrior. Nature reveals the arts of war to me.”

another good one, is the Sylvari adventurer in The Grove who just came back from exploring the other Cities, and dislikes Hoelbrak because it is too kitten cold.

there is the whole conversation. but reading it doesn’t really do it justice, as Thermaine’s voice actor is fantastic.

The Sylvari in the same town the OP mentions, who are playing rock paper scissors and trying to figure it out :P

Also, it’s no a gardener, it’s a sylvari elementalist and a warrior talking to each other.

It’s only a line but I can’t help but be amused every time. The Judging Quaggan that hangs out in Jorand’s Sluice in Snowden.

“Where did you learn to swim? Did a rock teach you? Quaggan thinks it must have been a rock.”

And it’s not exactly ambient but two lines you get entering the explorable AC dungeon cracks me up every time:
Tzark: “See? This is why we need a cohesive plan. People just wander in here and get attacked.”
Detha : “No one’s arguing about the need for a plan. Your plan is just stupid and won’t work.”

Two asuran lovers in Desider Atum:

-"All muds are not equal my dear. You must take in consideration the metals and the biological materials in your sample. Something as common as an embedded fosil can throw of the entire equation. "
-“I love it when you talk dirt.”

Loved this Asuran joke since my first character was lvl 10ish.

The talk between the Sylvari and the Asura in the Grove by the gate, I don’t know the whole thing so here’s a sample:
“After that question about turtles in the desert you crossed its wires. I don’t know how you did it but you wierded out my golem!”

“Your golem? You created it? So does that make you the mother or the father?”

“Well I guess that makes me the- oh no, you’re not getting in my head…”

What’s even better (IMO) after that group of lines is the fact on the other side of the room is the Priory guy telling the people wandering in how the camp REALLY needs their help. :P

in Smokestead, 3 Charr are sitting around a roasting spit:

Iron Legion Soldier: Is it done yet, boss?
Blood Legion Soldier: No. Stop asking, or you’re next on the spit.
Ash Legion Soldier: I’m gonna be old, and my teeth are gonna fall off before this boar is done.
Blood Legion Soldier: More for me.
Iron Legion Soldier: I don’t know. I say it needs some more sauce.
Ash Legion Soldier: Take it off the fire. It’s done. I’m starving.
Blood Legion Soldier: It ain’t done. Shut up. I’ll tell you when it’s done.

Well, I’m not sure about ambient dialog, but my favorite line in the game has to be this one from the “Short Fuse” story from the Asuran PS.

Savant: “To the victor goes the spoils. And if we have to spoil your face to get them, so be it.”

Hayato: Here’s an idea: let’s knock on the humongous gate door, then hide and see what they do when they open up and no one’s there.
Caromi Scout: Please don’t talk to me for the remainder of the shift.
