Guild Wars 2

Sooo angry I had to post!!!!

Just finished the Lev 64 story (rescuing the Asura Archaeologists – then fighting the Wraith Boss, the one what likes to stun you all the time)
After a very hard fight (Necro) I finally managed to beat him and what happens in the cut scene…

‘Traherne you did it’ !! ’Trahearne’s leadership won the battle’ or words to that effect…

Trahearne did nothing apart from die – it was ME who saved the archaeologists, it was ME who defeated the champ wraith…
Not once does Trahearne say ‘thanks for your praise but it was this young hero here (points at me) who saved the day and saved all your lives’

He corrects the charr by saying “The Pact did it. Our combined efforts made this happen.” Your character is part of the Pact.

Again, Trahearne and the pact all died, leaving me alone to save the day…
I was the hero, not the pact…
When a soldier performs above and beyond the call of duty (as I did) then that deserves special recognition – especially as it is my story.

No. The Pact lay dead at the feet of the mobs. I was the only one left standing.

And you are part of the pact. Not to mention if nothing else they were cannon fodder which bought you a little time without being the sole target for a while. That is team work if you ask me

Lots of NPCs have goofy AI and fall over repeatedly in combat. It doesn’t mean they’ve really died. Story-wise, everyone survived and worked together to kill the wraith. And Trahearne, rather than glory-hogging as people like to accuse him of doing, actually does give everyone involved (including the PC) credit for it.

It would be nice if story NPC AI was improved though, so the story and what actually happens in combat match up a bit better.

The point I’m getting at is I should have been singled out by Trahearne as I single handedly saved the pact from the Wrath.

Trahearne should have said something like ‘Yes a great victory for the pact and for a special member (me) who showed us the heart an determination we all need to show in the face of Zaitan’

I ceased being part of the pact the moment the story focused on Trahearne and left me in the dust.
