Guild Wars 2

We should be happy. They made us a new falling puzzle that’s SO. MUCH. FUN. Even more fun than the joy of the EB campy one. I got to meet SO many people falling. Fell. Fallen. Funkytown.

I completely forgot about WvW for a night, after finding queues all around.

That would be like Liadri and Giganticus Lupicus having a kid who goes on to give Hitler public relations lessons.

Just... no. There’s evil, and then there’s EVIL.

I prefer my achievements to not be dependent on the performance of others.

Except in the bedroom.

I say we take off and nuke the entire site from Rata Sum. It’s the only way to be sure.

I like Trahearne. He’s very him. He just took a roundabout way of getting to his Wyld Hunt. Ok, our Story just about had to drag him kicking and screaming into finishing his Wyld Hunt.

We were the driving force behind that. Yep. That and a very large undead monster dragon beastie who wanted to kill everybody. Very driving. Very behind me in that running screaming way.

It ended well.

JudgeD.5673:

TC’s NA coverage has been noticeably lower today, most likely due to the pavilion/champ farms.

Achievement points are like M&Ms. Except they don’t melt in my mouth or my hands. And they don’t pop out of a little bag. Not very chocolaty either. Or colorful. Ok, not like M&Ms at all.

Sergo.2867:

No. Servers that scrap their way up to T2 do not simply get smacked back down. It is known.

Welcome, Dragonbrand. And hats off to you and FA...

One does not simply walk into Tier 2. Its borderland gates are guarded by more than just zergs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the forum trolls are ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very words you type are poisonous fumes. Hundreds of gamers could help you do this. And it’ll be fun.

WAAAAAAAAAAAGH?

FOR GREAT ACHIEVEMENT!

Sometimes I just like the repetition of running supply. Take supply. Hike/waypoint. Repair. Waypoint/hike. Take supply. Etc.

I don’t need a badge for that because I get badges on the inside. Warm and fuzzy internal badges. Or cookies. Cookies are nice.

The other voices in my head are telling me to ignore the new ones...

This won’t end well.

Whitebeard.5172:

Quick question sir. What do you consider a zerg?

A zerg is any group that I’m not a member of.

When I’m part of it, they should be referred to as a superior cohesive fighting force.

FenrirSlakt.3692:

So you’re basically telling us that doing things the way they’re meant to be done increases our chances to succeed at them?

Heh, nicely said. Tired of the glitch this/skip that crowd, true enough.

Mastruq.2463:

Newsflash, there are many forms of difficulty, cat herding is one of them, motivating your troops is another.

Herd me. Herd me hard.

I’ve always done it with Sparki out first. Key is whoever is the ooze person(s), at the moment, to be aware of that and move it to the oil spots.

Usagi.4835:

When life gives you lemons…

Vodka. Oh wait, I gave that up 603 days ago. Not that I’m counting. At all.

First we say too much Trahearne and now not enough Trahearne?

It really won’t end well, either way.

Finger! Moon! This is this matchup and our matchup, not their matchups or maybe our matchups to be matchedup with or without us later.

For some odd reason I now want mashed potatoes and ketchup.

PS My gods, it’s like alphabet soup in here.

Budg.3064:

I’m surprised no one’s said thieves taste like cheese yet.

Cheese would go well with the Forum ’13 wine?

Miroe.2054:

Asura with skimpy armor would be awkward. Who would want that?

Mmm… the magical and technical expertise demonstrated in superior protection while maintaining the illusion of vulnerability. Such intellect! Inquiry: concealed portable Skyhammer or excessively exuberant greeting?

Zacchary.6183:

No sex. Just a catalytic process between two synergistic temporal fields that vibrate each other until reality splits open and BOOM…

That sounds a lot like sex actually. Just sayin’.

Mif.3471:

Hey FA, yo Momma is so fat, she uses a Pack Dolyak to carry her lunch.

Yo Mom so fat, she uses a Pack Dolyak as her lunch.

Hickeroar.9734:

The Humanity!!!

What about the Sylvarity? Asuraty? Full frontal Nornity?

Yes! Give me purple! Or that blinding shiny white. That would be awesome. Maybe even pink. Or pewter. Go Buccaneers! Woo. Cry. Sob. Josh Freeman…

Look at it this way, she wasn’t the main character, but she was awesome. So we’re kinda like Ivanova from B5. We are the right hand of awesome.

Susan Ivanova: Who am I? I am Susan Ivanova, Commander. Daughter of Andre and Sophie Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance and the boot that is going to kick your sorry [donkey] all the way back to Earth, sweetheart! I am death incarnate, and the last living thing that you will ever see. God sent me.

Rackhir Tanelorn.9123:

Numbers are always subjective and hard to confirm...

Best Captain Jack Sparrow impersonation - "Thief."

And that’s why I’m in a guild of me! Way subjective and way objective but the numbers in my case is a confirmed one. And I was easy. To confirm. Mostly thief.

I will say that TC’s WvW map chat seems very sparse and focused. I only saw one negative comment in 2 hours and only those involved knew what the context of that was. Even the furry guild recruitment thing seemed to get glossed over quickly.

Mostly it was use max info, min typing. Gods know I need lessons with that. And learning the names. Green lakey campy thing.

PS Empty out your guild bank if you’re a guild of one before you transfer. Many rares died for this information. Not that they weren’t going to die in the Mystic Forge eventually, but still...

Karykarywook.2481:

Glad to see some civility on this forum

DB, FA, TC – Group hugging so hard that loot bags drop! YaY!

Sariel V.7024:

“I fought Liadri and all I got was this lousy Title”

Alex Trebek: And the answer is: This movie title is taken from the name of the book “Gone With The Wind.” Mr. Sean Connery.

Sean Connery: Dolly Parton!

Alex Trebek: Titles, Mr. Connery…

I think FA recognized me at Hero’s tonight. 10 of them really tried to kill me for a couple minutes. I’d love to give hugs to that skelk that helped me to rally in the water under that bridge. Or I would if I didn’t flip a diving knife between its eyes. And a toast to that poor mosquito that let me C&D it to finally break clear.

I had to jump in and out of the lake twice for them to lose the scent. Which was rosy. What else would sylvari smell like, right?

I LOVE BEING A LEAFY THIEFY! A running, screaming leaf on the wind.

It gets a lot more exciting PvE when you hit Orr. There will be running, screaming, things covered in blood. Yes. Much more exciting.

I agree with your statement that the trait is powerful, and yes, Vigor makes it even stronger. However, you have to consider cost in addition to its risk/reward.

Thief survivability depends on not getting hit, either using stealth or evades. If you trait for Feline Grace, you can only get one GM trait outside of Acrobatics. The more you set up for defense, the less traits you have for offense. Thief have two traits to get Vigor. One is an Acrobatics Adept and the other is a Trickery Master on-steal.

I don’t agree with your take on the trait and wanting to see it be more "active". There’s a huge difference between spamming dodges and having the experience/skill to use them to deliberately evade certain moves while staying in to deal your damage. It can’t get more active than that.

I’m not that good. When I see someone who is, it makes me want to learn to play better.

Excalibur.9748:

Opinions differ. Those “true thieves” you are talking about…

There are no “true thieves”. I’m merely a sylvari between jobs at the moment. Thief is such a harsh word. I’m just good at lost-n-found. The finding bit, really.

This won’t end well.

I can play without wearing underwear, using any class, if it makes you happy?

It is like a finger pointing a way to the moon, do not look at the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory!

Less details, more play.

You could make an argument that norn mesmers have an advantage with their larger illusions being a bigger smokescreen to hide behind.

Darkbattlemage.9612:

If this is true they could be similar to the Orks of Warhammer 40k...

WAAAGH!

I’m da hand of Gork and Mork, dey sent me to rouse up da boyz to crush and kill ‘cos da boyz forgot what dere ‘ere for. I woz one of da boyz till da godz smashed me in da ‘ead an’ I ‘membered dat Orks is meant to conquer and make slaves of everyfing they don’t kill.

I’m da profit of da Waaagh an’ whole worlds burn in my boot prints. On Armour-Geddem, I led da boyz through da fire deserts and smashed da humies’ metal cities to scrap. I fought Yarik, old one-eye at Tarturus, an’ he fought good but we smashed iz city too.

I’m death to anyfing dat walks or crawls, where I go nothin’ stands in my way. We crushed da stunties on Golgotha, an’ we caught old one-eye when da speed freeks blew da humies’ big tanks ta bits. I let ‘im go ‘cause good enemies iz ‘ard to find, an Orks need enemies ta fight like they need meat ta eat an’ grog ta drink.

I iz more cunnin’ than a grot an’ more killy than a dread, da boyz dat follow me can’t be beat. On kitten enah we jumped da marine-boyz an’ our bosspoles was covered in da helmets we took from da dead ‘uns. We burned dere port an’ killed dere bosses an’ left nothin’ but ruins behind. I’m Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka an’ I speak wiv da word of da gods. We iz gonna stomp da ‘ooniverse flat an’ kill anyfing that fights back. We iz gonna do this coz’ we’re Orks an’ we was made ta fight an’ win!

-Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka

TC BL is SO thick with TC defenders. I almost cried when I reported that I couldn’t touch yaks because it looked like you had guilds on escort duty. Someone said "it seemed like something TC would do".

I wish I had a joke to go along with that, but I think it doesn’t need one, with you guys being the green team and all.

Badges and bags and all. Ha! What is best in life?!

To crush your enemies, see them driven from your Tier, and to hear the lamentation on the forum.

Failing that, cookies, pie, and cake. Or using that stuff for more seige. But I’d rather have the nomnom goodness.

Titan.3472:

...loosing again XD

loose - verb - set free; release.

lose - verb - fail to win (a game or contest).

It is like a one finger salute pointing a way to the word cop.

Sovereign.1093:

In the business world, being an employee represents the whole company.

In the gaming world, they can ban you but we can’t fire people. For better or worse.

Keep in mind that Body Shot, for all its shortcomings, is a 100% Projectile Finisher. YaY!

That Champ Bunny escaped the Fractal!

To me, the Trinity will always be Big Daddy, Junior and the Spook.

I’m goin’ to Hell in a Black Lion Chest.

Woogie.9127:

I can’t help but think about the following ridiculous things…

ref. Fugly rats from the blender, skinless chickenmorph, ghost pokemon…
SO FUNNY! Thanks, that’s a day maker right there.

ref. Why on earth would an agent of Grenth wear a tiara and a frilly robe?
Because if you got the body and confident attitude to pull it off, you should.

ref. Why should I take cooking?
Have you ever tried raw forum troll?

ref. “I am a necromancer! BRINGER OF DEA… Way to kill the mood…
I majored in pain with a minor in suffering.

FA just blew my necro into the south inner SMC gate. I mean into some lil crack on the side. I was alive for the whole painful process. Someone get a squeegee on a stick to get me out please.

All things have a right to grow. The blossom is brother to the weed.
From the smallest blade of grass to the largest mountain, where life goes—so, too, should you.
- Ventari’s Tablet

I’m not sure your idea of greatness is great. I wouldn’t want to be master over my brother. Or sister. Or even that cute little ferny hound. But totally don’t think it’s such a great thing.

The whole master thing just leads to hassles when people don’t agree. Go where life goes, but don’t drag other people’s lives with you. If they want to follow, they will. If not, then keep going while they go their way.

And hope there’s pie!

There’s something wonderful about that magic moment in a crowd where you actually get Epidemic to hit someone with 25 stacks of bleed with other conditions on too.

SO. MUCH. FUN.

Doomdesire.9365:

But be warned I run the most annoying P/D thief build and people hate that

The one where we get to stop and smell the flowers? But I love that.

PAGamer.4072:

At last, I’m all back in WvW!

YaY!

So, let me see if I get this. People thought things sucked when the Tiers never changed. And now that they changed, you’re unhappy with the shake out. Silly people. Less ponder, more play. FINGER! MOON!

Niko.8901:

Clockradio.3257:

TC, hang in there. The longer you fight us two, the more people will consider transferring over for some T1 wvw.

/(._______________.)\

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of our favorite things

We also enjoy the zombies, toast, beer, cookies, dolyak parades, making fun of the drama, making fun with drama, llamas, bookahs, and pointing a way to the moon.

Did I mention the toast? Lick it, learn it, love it, LIVE it!

Jski.6180:

…old meaning…zergling

I still swear if they make a Starcraft MMORPG I am SO totally going to be the cutest rabid lil crackling EVER!

Solkard.5136:

2) No krewe wants them and they end up joining the Inquest.

That explains a lot…
