If you give Gwen her broken flute, she will take you to a secret 7 levels dungeon and you can get the ultimate ultimate weapons from the end chest.
see what i got
but first you must get the flute in Hard Mode outside Sardilac Sanitarium,
happy days! and have fun.

way back in 2005, i saw a lvl 20 in pre-sear. i asked how he did it and he told me that after you beat the game, you can go to the underworld in tombs and there was a portal to take you back there. (dont forget this was back when hero's acent was in tombs and the first map is called the underworld)
and i ruined countless groups trying to find the portal.
/sigh... i miss them good ole' noob days.

-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 be a "real" SS without Arcane Echo.

being the one who does the 'killing blow' will net you the drop from that enemy....(and being the one who does the killing blow on the boss will net YOU the green item).....
meh.

i use to farm Zelnehlun Fastfoot a lot (still do durring event's, great run to get event drops fast) and when loot scaling came out, alot of people quit because they couldn't make 1k in a 5 min run off the whites.. then people started saying that if you killed each monster one at a time, you got just as many drops as before loot scaling.
i actually heard this so much i went in and did an hour of killing the group quickly as a whole, then an hour of killing them one at a time, and recorded all of my drops - and low and behold i got the exact same number of items, of each rareity level both times.
even after showing my data i couldn't get people to believe that you get three times the items per run when you kill them one at a time, because it takes you three times as long to do each run.. - in the end they are the same.

Just wandering if anyone ever hear about this?
that if there are a lot of ice imp outside the cave, icy dragon swords will most likely not drop, and if alot of the ice imp are located inside the case the icy dragon swords' drop chance are higher? or vice versa, i couldn't remember but is that true?
also just wandering, has anyone try giving the broken flute to gwen in HoM?

I remember someone telling me that the ascalon armor conferred a +20 armor bonus against charr.
Oh man, I loved my first week of GW. I didn't know squat.

I remember doing 'The great Northern Wall' when I was just so so new to the game.
A lvl20 in the out post said he would walk us thru......
Everything was going fine, he was even pointing out the enemies, and what they did...
When it came to the part where you run for your life from the charr army, he said " Just face them with me, if you kill them all, you get a gold item drop for everyone on the team...I have been farming this for weeks."
heh...you know what happened next.
bless us all, we were all noobs at one time...

well, its sort of like the OP, but when i had a run around the desert i had a strange elementalist who was also getting a run, and he said he was the son of abbadon and he wields the sword of 5 gods, or something along those lines. but then he proceeded to say he was indestructable and could simply be ressurected by dwayna, guess the game got too much into his head.

Did you know that ... if you have account older than 2 year and you empty storage and delete all characters you have special bonus waiting for you when you create character: 1mil in storage and material storage filled with 250 of each material.
Anet made it to reward people who make comeback so that they can afford stuff.
Had friend try it but he messed up and left some materials in mat storage so he got nothing :-/

There was a time when 'the company' had me believe that the oo7's were on my end. Biggest UL ever, albeit not from ingame players, it's still a myth/UL.

People actually believe that Guild Wars has a better community than games such as World of Warcraft which have a monthly fee.
Those people need a lesson in Darwinism.

Can't beleive noone has mentioned this one:
They removed the Anti-Farm Code with loot scaling.
After running around 10 UW runs this week, people playing on alts always had more ecto drops than people playing their mains.

It doesn't randomly change with updates. Although I guess you could consider that a rumor which might become an urban legend.
So, what you said was false. Sorry. That's the way the cookie crumbles. |

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* |

LoL. Sure the anti-farm code is gone.
It just so happens that by magic there are less and less mobs everytime I zone into Snake Dance to cap one of the Griffons.

Not really a UL but more a funny.
Anyway, I was playing TA with a friend of mine, he on his ranger and me on my ele. We found a monk and decided that the last spot should be filled up by a warrior. As we found the warrior, we asked him to ping his build so we could see it. He didn't know how to and only after telling him to ctrl+click his skill bar did he understand. He had skills from Axe mastery, hammer mastery AND swordsmanship in his bar, and his elite was "Charge!" with only 3 points in tactics.
Needless to say, I kicked him. He then walked up to me and asked in local what happened, so I told him what I did. He then asked why I kicked him and I said: "Well, what idiot wammo has skills from all three warrior weapon lines and Charge as an elite with only 3 points in tactics?". He didn't really get my point but everyone else in that district laughed their asses off.

What about the couple dozen UL about how to get up onto the inaccessible areas in Kamadan to get the unopened wintersday gifts that rained down last year. Employees' toons would get into the area and collect the gifts "to distribute to the region that missed the event" (which is probably also another UL).

This is more of a newb thing or inexperienced thing, but you can have an UNided sup vigor.
I got chewed out once in droks forge for trying to sell one. The person started calling me a scammer and just getting all on my case. Finally I explained the whole process and she said sorry and bought it XD.
But there are still people who think its a scam of some sort.
Also I to fell for the you can get into UW without favor via Lonar's Pass Q_Q So we tried it one day and got nowhere... and then America took halls as we stood there XD

walk around the fountain in LA exactly 50 times, then go to the merchant and all prices will be down 50%
If you go little less or more than 50, it won't work.

Travell all places in Tyria in alphabetical order, then do the last mission and undead rurik will appear as henchie.
