Rofl at a wamo
Grasping Darkness
it has been very entertaing to me for some time now the mentality of most people that play wa/mo's. i want to see what stories of wierd wamo behavior you have seen. ok the strangest i think are all the trading district wamos who think theyre the best to have the newest 15k so they look tough while calling others noobs.
Aera
So what's the point of this thread?

Hmmm...A thread meant to encourage negative sterotypes of people who play W/Mo. I smell a flame fest coming.

I like the fissure-helm wammos with 15k glads and a black FoW helmet. The gladiator's armour is too revealing and the helm is too small so they look even fatter and more disproportionate. They claim to have umpteen stacks of ectos and Crystalline Swords, Serpent Axes, Dwarvens and so on and will want an Elemental Sword because its NF's Fiery Dragon Sword.
I usually Screenshot a good fissure-helm wammo so I might make a collage and post it >_>

I play warrior, often times /monk for rebirth........So i rezemble that remark, 
Anyway i do have a funny wammo story, I'm 55 monking gates of kryta. I come back to town to sell my items, and i get an invite. i reject it, invite agian, reject it, invite agian. So i join group, say in team chat" hey i'm farming" they beg me to help them. Being a nice guy and the fact that i can template to quickchange i diside to help them. But i allso disided to finish of the witchs brews and other stuff wile monking for them. Now for the funny part, we go for the bonus there are 3 wammos one 20 one 14 one 12, the lvl 14 was a big time noob, they stop in fights to grab drops, over agro, all the classics, anyway, the chest with the tablet pops open XXXX the distroyer lvl 14 wammo picks up tablet. we head back toward the town. Says XXXX "why does it say Drop Item on my screen?" I was talking on vent and figured someone would wisper her to tell her, But no ,next group of enemys pops up she hits frenzy, dashs right up next to the wraith takes a hit uses heal sig and drops like a shot...................in chat lines its says XXXX the distroyer has dropped the tablet shards................i about fell out of my chair laughing

Yes, I play a W/Mo and I am an extremely large noob who brings mending into GvG.

If Anet made rebirth an any class skill you would see FAR FEWER wamos. I prefer w/e but when in a pug .. time to bust out the rebirth to rez. There are just as many moronic casters as there are "wamos". Most of these horrible "wamos" are the sucky casters that think cast range works better if they stand on the enemy. Would you be happier if those of us packing rebirth to save the party after a leroy caster double agros stopped bringing rebirth or rez period? After 18 months of "wamo" posts I think every negative comment must have been said by now.

The FoW Helm + other armor is pretty classic. Of course you have the FDS and other uber sword people.
But we all know what makes a wammo a wammo, really--HH and Mending.

That being said, in every online game I have ever played the least intellegent players are drawn to the big burly mellee characters regardless of how difficult the class is to play and master. Mending is like a dead give away in guildwars.

My favorite Wa/Mo armour setup was a guy who had all the FoW pieces except for the leggings. Which were Drok's and he had dyed silver. So it kinda looked like he was wearing his underwear outside of his pants.
It looked pretty funny. I went on several FoW runs with him in his attempt to make it to the Forgemaster for the last piece but we always had PuGs with lots of quitters and couldn't make it.
The last time he was just devastated, as all we had left to do was the spider cave and we were done, but a bunch of people quit and we couldn't do it.
He was actually a very good warrior, able to hold aggro and kept us fairly safe while we worked our way through this part of the game.

I prefer no wars in my groups, but guildies always insist on 2 wammos, wth.
Rera
I'd like to point out that there is a difference in written usage between "W/Mo" and "wammo". This thread is most likely talking about the latter, meaning all of the sensitive, politically-correct W/Mo players can stop getting their panties in a bunch about class stereotyping.
/ragequit if any player in the party uses Healing Breeze.

I saw a wammo with lifebond in RA, I saw another Wammo in RA who used blessed signet to get energy back from his mending.

W/Mo for Rebirth and Mend Ailment. Why bring Mend Ailment? Because of all the noob Mo/XX that don't bring condition removal. Tanks can't do anything when they're blinded.
Clawdius_Talonious
I prefer W/N, but rebirth is useful at times, my Prophy W/N was my first character so he's appropriately W/anything now...
I fought a Wammo, 1v1, and he managed to kill my shutdown W build (an impressive feat except no self heals and the fact that it's meant for casters typically, but the build will still wipe the floor with most Wammo's). I promptly thrashed him with a different character, and then he refused to fight anything but another Warrior build. So, I swapped my W to an illusionary weaponry build and promptly tore him a new one again. Mending + Bonetti's + HH FTL!

If we're going to stereotype professions, let's not discriminate and be (un)fair to everyone!!!
Wammos: Think that with frenzy and Healing breeze, they can take on every enemy on the map all at once.
Monks: Prima-donnas that are soley responsible for people dying in combat, and will rage quit at the slightest provocation.
Mesmers: Can't contribute to a PvE party to save their lives and no one knows how to play one.
Elementalists: Only know how to cast Meteor Shower and complain about AoE nerfs.
Rangers: Tree-hugging loners who prefer the company of their pet over other players (real or AI).
Necros: Only good as MMs or Orders. Played by a bunch of goths.
Assassin: There is no such thing as a good one.
Ritualist: I don't get Rits, they're all weird.
Dervish*: Only played by Wammos in disguise.
Paragon*: Have a "Holier than thou" attitude and get upset if they get their pretty white outfits soiled.
*Professions too new to have established a stereotype, but I know that they're all the same somehow!
Edit: To avoid any misunderstanding, I agree 100% with Contempt:

So we go outside, (only us 2) And he goes right up to the Foes, starts casting Pheonix and Inferno and such, And I'm behind him, spawning minnions. We get to Reed bog, and, no Sruprise, he drops like a stone.
He then Says "Lets restart, we have DP" And I say "Um, so what?" "I will die faster" "Dude, you're not supposed to go all the way up to them" He then places me on ignore, calls me a noob and says he can kick my ass, then invites me to his guild.
So, I jump on my faithfull Ghial Farming Wammo, Go into the scrimmage. He drops me down to about half health, (Bleeding and fire) Before one of his enchantments drops, and Then so does he.
Then he calls me a "nub pussy coward" Because of the healing Spells (Healing hands and mending.) (HELLO, you're a Ele/ME' you could easily have stripped me, No excuse there) And way to go to calling all 55s and Monks "nubs".
nub != noob
nub = Nuh' b = tub
Good job Eric The Deadly.
ACreator

I found Plauge Touch to be best for getting rid of conditions since monks can't do everything.
Thats why I play Wa/N for pve. So yeha i like making fun of Wammo's.

So far I havn't had to much trouble with them. As far as the all monk secondarys, well they were most likey different once, but I get tired of hexes. Perma rezes are nice to.

He was being Sarcastic. EI, not being serious. Those are stereotypes, parodies if you will.

Phantom, sweetie, Kook *was* joking and pointing out how all professions could be stereotyped by someone who has nothing better to do than sit around and whine. If you'd read the quote he added at the bottom more closely, he/she said he agreed that the morons who (equal opportunity) stereotype a profession are stupid.......

and what's the big deal with obsidian helmets? if you see any other class running round with their FoW helmet you don't shout 'omg noob' at them do you? what's wrong with liking some certain armour? sure, some people think it's 'big' to call others noobs because they are poor, wise with their money or don't care what other's think.
to be honest, i wish everyone would just lay off of us Whammo's, (<< see, we even get a nickname), for that matter, why don't we all take the piss out of W/E's because alot of them use shock? give them the nickname 'Wellies', or laugh at Mo/Me's 'Mommies', or R/Mo's, Rammo's, or Conjure Assassin's, A/E's, Assimentalists, what is the big deal with JUST US? either piss off everybody or leave everybody alone, it makes me sick.

My personal fave 'wammo' was a W/E that ran into a mob in Grenth's Footprint, cast phoenix, then ran back to the casters and started spamming Flare.
and yes, I also have a W/Mo and take no offense at peeps telling 'wammo' stories. X/Xx can be a 'wammo'.
