Guild Wars 2

I parked my broom out infront of stonemist castle, chained it up on the broom rack and went inside. I said hi to the lord and made my way to the third floor to make use of the mystic forge. I desperately had to convert my jute cloth into wool during large-scale siege warfare and it just couldn’t wait.

I came back down and went to the broom rack and freaking thief stole my broom.

Hello Lobsters, I’m sorry to hear about your broom.

For potential nerfs please submit to this thread.

But was he a Thief before he stole your broom?

I’m sorry, but that’s what you get for leaving a valuable asset like that unattended in a war zone.
Several scenarios could have occurred.
1) A roaming enemy thief could have found your broom and made off with it (war trophy).
2) An enemy zerg targeted your broom and destroyed it (my condolences)
3) A friendly ally decided that your broom could better suit the war effort at another strategic location without checking with other team members (i.e. the Golem shuffle, or “Dude, where’s my golem?”)
4) Anet decided that unattended brooms are a type of siege, and so it de-spawned while you were at the forge.

All plausible.

Edit – Was this a sanctioned broom from the Black Lion Trading Company? Did you make all your payments?
Evon Gnashblade is not above sending out Repo men if you default on one of his deals.

Dude, this is an epidemic of biblical proportions. I talked to my friend from India, who also uses a broom to get around the borderlands. He said on his way from Quentin Lake a group of thieves jumped out and mugged him at gunpoint! They ganked his broom from him and all three of them rode off on it laughing!

And my neighbor, Mister kitten Smiley, was also a victim of this heinous robbing spree! He said to me on the telephone, while choking back his tears, that he and his girlfriend were enjoying a day of herb picking near Speldan and when they came back to their brooms to go home… GONE! All the brooms are gone!

This is a crime spree the likes Tyria has never seen before! Them thieves… they… they just jacking all the brooms, yo!

I’m sure he will be having a garage sale where you can buy back your broom.

Don’t fear though! We’re getting a MASSSIVE nerf to choking gas…
(33% was a MASSIVE buff. 5→3 seconds is 40% nerf, so it’s a MASSIVE nerf)

I think we should just sweep this one under the rug…..oh wait.

In a situation like this we need at least 1 PvP Dev, 1 WvW Dev, 1 PvE Dev and 1 PR to come here and open a meeting immediately.

This Thief if caught he must be banned from the game and all of his fortune will give away and share between every warriors in the game, period.

I suggest the whole staff come to this meeting.

Then we can nick their brooms.

no it was a ele who wanted to use RTL with a broom so it’d look like a real witch

Sorry bro, you won’t have it back.

I went to the court today, to explain my case to the court people. They had to recess three times because I kept crying and they couldn’t understand what I was trying to tell them.

Then some guy with a long torch for lighting the tall lamps on the wall came in and all I could see was some thief carrying my tortured broom and setting it on fire.

I was so distraught, I actually feinted.

I have a reoccurring nightmare about Thieves stealing all the Brooms in Tyria. It was almost as bad as fighting Zaitan end movie was.

PLEASE STOP STEALING ALL THE BROOMS THIEF!

Im now laughing all the way to the bank hahahaha :P

Not even the mayor would help me.

There has to be some kind of conspiracy afoot to steal all the brooms in Tyria.

You immediately blame Thief? It coulda been a warrior that snatched it and insta-ran away with all his mobility skills or a Mesmer who stealth snatched it.

I wish I could steal Brooms. If I stole from you I woulda gota frozen Popsicle

Brooms, now there’s a few creative ways you can get by using brooms to fix all these big bad Invisible OP thieves.

It wasn’t a thief.

I was quiet for the most part to let you blame someone else, but alas, my conscience is killing me!

I’m a Mesmer. It was noon, we were one floor above you in the carpeted hallway, and I was conversing with my phantasm regarding her behavior in a fight we had this morning against a fierce facerolling hammer warrior. I expressed my concerns, reviewed the tactics she used, and next-time expectations to my phantasm and so forth.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the lobby, one of the clones apparently jealous of the attention the phantasm was getting went renegade and decided to run away, planning a Tyria-roadtrip and stole your broom! Yes – It wasn’t me! I assure you – clone stole your broom!

Realizing what had happened, I looked out the window and saw the fleeting clone with the broom. I shattered, and the broom fell to the ground safe and in one piece.

If I were you I’d hurry. While the broom is whole and working, it fell just by a skritt hole. Luckily, your broom is not considered by any stretch “shiny” so might even still be there.

I still mourn the phantasm though, she was a good one :’-(

Every shatter we lose some of ourselves. So sad.

This just made my day.

I told that Mesmer teacher that whole story and gave them your name. She looked in her computer database for your Mesmer Permit and she said you never passed your final exam.

In fact, she drug up a whole laundry list of criminal notifications on you. And on further inspection, we came to an agreement that somebody this lowly must surely be a thief.

THIEF STOLE MY BROOM! HELP!

then gf dumped me cuz ladder,
all is vein

(btw nice try mister Mesmer and very well worded and thought out. You completerly ruined my ploy though. And yet… secretly you played right into my hands. Totally worth the 10 minutes a day lol. Thanks!)
