Now listen up, you primitive screwheads. See this? This... is my boomstick! The 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You *got* that?

Don't forget the original campaign has the Army of Darkness in UW/Fissure. I love the Ash references they've been putting in.

Oh yeah, any Ash reference fuels me!
Now, all we need is some Spaceballs references, and I'm set!

It's sort of ironic that the spell Judge's Insight doesn't help you one bit in the trial at the end of the preview. You'd think you could peer into the jury's skull and. . . You know, gather some insightful information?
And let us not forget Holy Haste. Go check out Healbot Blues for that one. (Not Twinkiemonk, damnit, my comic isn't cool. . . yet.)

I don't know if this is an inside joke or not but in the Flamingos quest (forget the name) where you are supposed to get them out of the fields, I tried all the things that had worked in the past, blocking their path, kind of pushing them in the direction they need to go, clicking on them etc. I then read the quest again and it said, "shoo the flamingo's out of the field". So I thought what the hell......so I did /shoo and it worked. Finally, a real use for emotes!

Some npc walks round Kamaden saying "I should have been a farmer" which I immediately thought was a reference to a-nets hate for farming.

I forget which area this was in... Was either Beknur Harbor or Kodlonu Hamlet...
All the Henchies are standing around a campfire. The first thing I thought of when I saw this screen was the Player select screen from Diablo II

The whole "holy haste" thing sounds like something from Monty Python's Holy Graile.
Giga Strike
there is a ritualist skill called "sight beyond sight". i think that's a thundercats reference.

Wonder if they'll bring in a new smiting monk skill - the Holy Handgrenade of Antioch would be nice...

anyone knows where the female paragon dance is from? i find it quite silly lol

I don't know if it has been mentioned but when you do emotes outside outposts your heroes respond accordingly (only your heroes, not henches or other player's heroes). For example, if you /dance they play an instrument or dance with you or clap their hands (/excited emoticon). If you /bowhead, they all /bowhead etc. Some times they start dancing or use another emoticon on their own.

Heh, nothing like Koss doing the pelvic thrust over the corpse of a vanquished beastie.

1. The hunter that Nehdukah is trying to impress (see quest "Hog Hunt") comments that he/she "can track a falcon on a cloudy day. I can find anyone." <line spoken by Buttercup refering to Prince Humperdink>
2. Sinni in the quest "A father's fate" has the following reward dialog:
"Thank you, hero. My father always said "Life is pain. Anyone who tells you different is selling something." <line spoken by Westly to Buttercup after her exclamation "You mock my pain!">
I say "more" because I'm sure the following three have been posted somewhere:
Lukas from Factions saying "I'm really left-handed"
The skill "Bonnetti's Defense"
The NPC "Farrah Cappo"

"Double Dog Dare" quest given from someone in Zehlon reach, had vague hints rather than direct instructions, fun quest, after following a dozen or so clues leads you to his greatest treasure....

I wanted to know what the ingame skill does.

Ebon Hawk. 10 Energy, 2 second cast, 15 second recharge. Send a projectile that strikes for 20...76 earth damage if it hits. If this Spell hits a moving foe, that foe suffers from Weakness for 5...13 seconds.

Ok, here's some interesting things (glitches, not really funny):
Obviously ANet didn't have time to make a real icon for it...
Hmm...that Sunspear Recruit looks awefully familiar...

Ashigun certainly had a subtle way of persuading one to go off in search of Bobo in "Double Dog Dare" - that quest did actually use an emote, too, as you have to "kneel" finally to unearth the beloved Bobo. Not the first teddy bear in the game, of course, there's one to be returned in Factions too...
