I hear that pressing Alt + F4 at the same time gives you 100k...

And deleting your System32 folder gives you unlimited ectos...

Following your logic, before anybody had reached the Crystal Desert (for example) it was impossible to get there.

Someone told me I had to get a run from Ascalon to get to the desert when I had been on GW for a week. They also said they went there to go farming. I was utterly confused about how a desolate area can grow profitable plantation... @_@
PRESSING ALT+F4 GIVES YOU 10K FACTION QUICK BEFORE ANET FIXES THIS GLITCH
*half the Luxon team disappears*
Ohhh how fun that was.

If anyone tries the Alt-F4 in a pug im in ..I always reply "it just took a screenshot" you would be surprised at the number of disconnections you get back!!

Another urban legend I may be able to think of is that jade/amber weapons have a chance of salvaging into jade, or amber. Its never happened to me though, but I think its a rumor anyway.

After helping a noob player out in PvE a looong time ago, he kept PMing me to chat and to ask for advice etc.
At some point he proudly declared that his mother had eBayed a million gold for him. He had spent a fair chunk of that already by buying 5 superior absorption runes at the then current price of 100K each, to put on all his armor pieces. He was somewhat disappointed when I told him the rune has a global effect that doesn't stack.

Once a guy told me he would take his heroes into an instanced area and let them fight by themselves (he would just stand there doing nothing). That way, his heroes would get more experience points...

oh and did you hear about the zaishen master cartographer title?
RedNova88
The urban legend that any W/Mo is a loser and always carries mending and thinks they're an uber tank that could take on anything solo... Actually I find this to be true in many cases... *cough*
Oh and I'm surprised I haven't heard this one mentioned yet... r7-8 (max damage) weapons don't drop anymore. I hear it a lot =/ I've never gotten one myself but I'm fairly certain I've seen a friend of mine get one while we were in a group.

Aerial Assault
How about this ridiculous urban legend...
-You dont open the 1st chest in FoW after completing Rastigan's quest "Tower of Courage" because (get this) it makes subsequent enemy loot better.
superstition ftl.
Or, I dont know whether to call it urban legend or just widespread retardation...
-You must be level 20 to enter FoW or UW.
I understand most groups want you to be level 20, but you dont HAVE to be.
Ive offered to pay 5k+cost of entry and forfeit my drops as lvl 17-18 to many groups so that I could get experience boosts from quests completed... only to be rejected for the above reason.

You can't do Destructions Depths with just heroes and henches. <- I've done it with 5 different characters so far
Killing a boss in a certain spot increases the chance that he'll drop his green item
<- I seen a boss drop stuff when killed at the same area.. coinsidence?

what about the legend... where if something kills u... it will drop better stuff? ive heard that a few times.... "everyone go die to this boss, so we can kill him and get a better drop"....
wolfwing
I remember in my old days of prophecies thinking that who ever killed the mob got the drop *I was a ranger* as it seemed my henchmen were usually getting the final hit on the enemy and I was getting very few drops.
creelie
LOL wolfwing, I used to think the same thing! Early on I thought you only got experience and loot if you personally struck the killing blow.
wolfwing
Not sure if this is a myth or not...:> THough it seems true and something I've never proved but.
Every time you enter a area any unopened chest the last time remains in it's spot, so eventually all the chests will end up on other side of the map and to reset you have to go open them too.
Not sure if it's true, but I've seen back when I was wurm farming alot in desolation that after about 4-5 runs there would be 1-0 chests spawning on the remains side of the map, and untill I started on the other side of the map where the mission is there would be very few chests spawning. *Usually 1-4 chests on a run, down to 1-0 chests*

If you place in the top 100 THIS time in rollerbeetle, you'll get a mini Greased Lightning.
Somehow that one persists through every weekend that they open Rollerbeetle races...

killing the boss last results in a better green drop rate.
killing the boss first results in a better green drop rate.
