I Remember When...

Good week that (100k Rock Moulders) bought a ton at 50k each resold for 90-100+10e each then they nerfed them lol ah *memories*

I don't know if this was said earlier but...
I remember when:

- There was only Prophecies
- There were alot of people playing
- There were no such thing as Assassins, Dervishes etc.
- Shadow Stepping was non-existent
- Factions was non-existent thus there was none of the relentless trash talking about other people in other factions
- AoE
- How Boon-Prot was such an effective cookie-cutter build that 'everyone' was a good monk
- Less rants on Forums about Anerfs
- There were less Trolls and there were nicer people

I remember when I was a noob and getting a dye drop was the best feeling in the world D:

omfg
/agree with all.<3

Silver dye = 3-5k
Black dye = 10k+

And this..

"How do you make white dye?"

I remember...

my first PvP event in prophecies when going post searing. Had no idea what was going on and didn't attack anyone.

Was such a noob I ended up at fort ranik (post searing) still in starter armor.

got my first black dye.

ele fire skills were da bomb literally. AoE wasn't nerfed.

Everyone was a noob.

your characters stood outside a campfire... wish I had a screen of that still. the original log in screen is still my fav.

I remember the pre-made PvP "builds" /shudder
lol Skull Crack MEsmer

Paladins
Abominable Snowmen
Them fire ranger things

Ahhh, them were some great builds.

I remember when droks run was still a good money maker.

I remember when I always took mending on my bar, wondering why my energy was so low.

I remember when having 1 ecto was only something I could imagine.

When people didn't ask you to ping your build before the start of every mission.

When I thought the 55 monk was the most awsome thing ever.

And when I was clueless on how to get the crafting materials needed for my first set of armor out of pre-searing in old ascalon (the monsters never drop the stuff the crafter needs.......)

i rember when white dyes were 60k

I remember when I first started playing GW (Prophecies) and I did a lot of stupid crap with my original warrior. I had things on my bar like Frenzy and Blood Renewal and trying to be a MM with my warrior... Lol... So dumb.

I remember first time I realized there are other places I haven't visited even after beating the final mission a few times.
I remember fighting through the snows and monsters with a nice pug team, and finally reached granite citadel, loaded with money and material for my first set of 15K armor.
I remember granite citadel's music as my favorite.
I remember I made a lot of friends when playing prophecies, and how I lost them after factions and nightfall.

people keep mentioning refund points but i cant remember them. how old are they?

I Remember When i thought droks armor was expensive.

I Remember When getting to lvl 20 meant i was done with the game.

I Remember When i thought the game had a breakdown after i entered the academy (really wtf if you had no clue it was going to happen would you of expected that to happen..)

I Remember When my war was lvl 16 in pre because i didnt know how to leave >.<

I Remember When pve was fun and hoh didnt require titles i dont like titles...

I rememember when names like Yak's bend and Lion's Arch had a mysterious, exotic aura about them (before I made it to those places the first time, way back when)

I remember when Fire Storm was a decent PvE skill.

I remember when my first Ranger met his end - Eaten by his own pet bear! (hyperphasia FTL!)

I remember when NO ONE would take a Mesmer in their group. (They're learning )

I remember taking my second Ranger through Prophecies doing Mission & Bonus all the way through just for the sake of doing it (pre-titles)

I remember doing the torch trick in THK and making jokes while all the baddies were beating on me and all my party was beating on them!

When almost no one would let rangers into a party.

Being called a noob when I didn't have all the skills the party leader requested my first time in HA.

Getting my first sup Absorption drop from an Ettin, back when they were around 60-70k-ish.

The rollback of 06.

Being excited when I got that deer emote.

Farming Drakes outside Elona's reach

Waiting almost a year and a half for my first max damage Fellblade to drop (dropped in Elona of all places, but was purple, max, q9 and at that point, totally worthless).

I also remember when Balthazar Aura was stackable... Farming godliness.

Im Remember Griffon Farming 2k per 2 min with 3 golds ftw!

also i remember hale staff heads +30 being sold for 60k

I remember runes of adrenal fury...

I remember:

Feeling lost in pre-searing ascalon.

Feeling awestruck (and lost) when seeing the whole post map (i thought you could explore it ALL)

Going out SOLO with my lvl 6 E/Me, with the skill bar a total mess (7 different attributes - see my first ever screenshot)

Not knowing you can shift your secondary as many times as you want and stayed as an E/Me for AGES because of it.

Thinking that soloing lvl 8 centaurs with my lvl 13 war was leet (had mending of course).

My first valuable drop (sup prot prayers rune, worth approx 12-14k at the time)

When we were the only heroes and had only henchies to go 'round with.

When sup abs and vigor were insanely expensive. then when I dropped one, they were already going down.

On a side note: Anet, if you're watching this thread, realize how good old times were, and try to bring some of those things back. If you cannot/will not/whatever, DON'T DO THE SAME THINGS WITH GW2!!!

WOW ... nobody brought up when we had to cap elites while the boss was alive and using the skill. That I dont miss=p
