Not sure if anyone got it, but Drooburt, If that IS indeed his real name, is actually a shady drifter who probably came to this bandit town to take advantage of suckers who think every quaggan is good.

Well… At least with the money given to him by rubes, Drooburt was probably too smashed to feel anything when the vines got him. :P

Now he’s dead and no more shall you need to moisten him….until he’s buried underground and we can plant flowers on his grave, then we just need to water the flowers.

Quaggans lead a hard life – there is still someone in frostgorge putting mines in the sea and trying to prevent their guild mission migration for example.

….and those jellyfish are cruel.

Perhaps he drank the water of life and is meditating in a near death state to become – Poo-a-D’ib, leader of the desert Quaggans – the voice from the outer world.

He scammed money from us so its actually satisfying that he got killed, made it worth the gold we gave him.

I laughed loudly when I saw him hanging up there, while a fellow party member expressed her horror at the sight of it. We all suspected it would happen, but hearing the reactions on Team Speak is priceless.

Possible that we didn’t give him enough gold to save him from death…

Slow clap for Peter Fries. He trolled everyone hard with Drooburt and it was kitten funny. When he was talking about how he wrote Drooburt into Prosperity, I laughed as hard as I could. If you haven’t seen the 3rd episode Points of Interest interview, it’s pretty funny. The Drooburt talk starts somewhere around 9 minutes in.

Edit: I’m not that lazy. Here’s where the Drooburt talk starts https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=8GCAPujp6yM#t=470

I hope Drool-burt will return as a legendary plantified mob in future episodes, and the only way to defeat it is to shoot asuran coin-operated ray gun at it, whose firepower depends on amount being fed: 1 copper = pea shot; 1 silver = normal rifle shot, but meh; 1 gold = SUPERHYPERMEGADEATHRAYPEWPEWPEW laser

Personally I hope he will get a proper grave, I would laugh hard though if he got a rich ornamented marble grave/tomb though.

R.I.P. Drooburt
How you gathered your fortune is unknown, but may you rest in it for all eternity.
or
A grave in honour of your great fortune, obviously brought about by great decision making, if only you were still alive to teach us

Obviously a Heroes Elixir would spawn and the base of his grave

The Drooburt bit was awesome sauce. Nicely done and a lot of fun. The interview with Peter Fries was even more icing on the cake. +1 here for a bit well done. What makes Easter Eggs fun is finding them, Drooburt collecting money would have been to obvious, when in fact his death was the Easter Egg in of itself. Good hunting!

If the devs ever wonder why players think they’re not listening, then this is a perfect example. In the points of intrest youtube movie, Peter Fries laughs about how he added Drooburt just to see how much gold the players would waste on him. He apparently finds it very funny that we spent all our hard earned cash on an npc that doesn’t do anything.

Talk about insulting. With this type of people making the game, no wonder everything is bugged and unfinished. And to think we’re paying that guy’s salary…just to be used for his own personal amusement.

Maybe I should get a job at ArenaNet. I’d get to pester people all day, do a barely passable job, and get paid for it? Sounds like a sweet deal…

If you can read this then it is proof that ArenaNet’s moderators just, kind and fair.

Um… I just interpreted it as a guy who decided to play a little trick. It was kinda funny actually. Apparently for you that means the entire ANet is a hive of sloth and wickedness…

As a social experiment/joke, I totally found it funny. I had to reassess my expectations when I was feeding this drunk quaggan gold. Gold! At some point I did reach a conclusion that was unique to this experience….“Wait. Wait. Nope! Not getting my money back…” I learned a valuable lesson that day.

I hated to see him die but I always start with a few coppers. When there is no response. I walk away. Not the games fault if you give gold and get nothing in return. Hard life lesson. Don’t trust panhandlers and beggars. A fool and their money is soon parted. Le
