What was your most movie-like moment from GuildWars?

during cutscenes it seems like the most movie-like time, lol

I healed myself in TA for a full minute for my team to respawn. We went on to get 17 wins ^^

the cinematic for the following:

1) when gwen showed up at the eye of the north
2) when jora wants to kill her brother

The answer to any question like this can be answered with Undead Prince Rurik.

Back in the beginning of Factions (when PVE Sin hate was at it's strongest) I got through all of Factions by having to start my own groups and when I was able to cap Barrage it went easier with the help of a Critcial Strikes Barrager build but then came the final mission. Through-out that experince I felt like an outcast that still came out top.

Then came the final mission where barrage had little to no use. I managed to find a group and at the very end Shiro bombed everyone with Meditation of the Reaper leacing me with 15 HP. I dived in for a final assault combo with Ride the Lightning with a finishiner of Jaged Strike. That was defenintly a movie moment.

when i first met livia in a cutscene during a GWEn quest

I do. Only in Proph and GW:EN though.

I love the part when Pyre shoots the charr in the throat! That's brilliant. Pyre definitely has all the best lines and the best personality out of all the heroes!

Pyre FTW

The Searing. I didn't read spoilers or game guides back then, so it was with shock and horror that I saw the sunny green world of my character's youth turned into a blasted wasteland.

Killing Murakai with only five people. Felt like the matrix.

Warrior (me)
Assassin (friend)
Two eles, both running fire
Paragon, running spear/restoration

that quest in the Battledepths were all the stone summit rush the dwarves. That was one of my favorite moments of this game. I was totally owning and holding the area and then it died down for a little and i thought to myself "wow awesome 15 minutes of straight awesome battle survived" then bam a bunch more come in, the epic battle music starts playing and i'm fighting for another 5-10 mins until i finally destroy them. I just felt so great during that battle.

When I Evisexecagon-spiked someone in RA, then /ranked their corpse.

Probably the best part in any Guild Wars game was when Prince Rurik's face gets a close-up, and the clouded sun is just above him in the pale orange sky and he says it's time to free ourselves from the Charr. I know it's a cinematic rather than a real time experience, but I just can't think of anything that screams "Movie!"

went up against the great destroyer in HM, entire team got wiped except me, the destroyer had about 2% health left. I was playing monk. Threw pain inverter on him as he used searing breath attack and he dropped before I did. Felt cool at the time

Me n alliance were doing..Great Northern Wall I believe and at the end when you have to rush to the gate and all that and if you stick around the hordes of charr come in..

Well..I was on my warrior and just for laughs, on vent I yelled "THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAAA" and then we nuke'ed them and lol'ed

I thought it was funny.

Busting into the mursat fortress through the front door in Ring of Fire hard mode, hordes of mursaat and jade pouring out, being nuked from all angles by ether seals, slowly but surely killing everyone of them, ahhhh good times

If by "shivery feeling" you mean "ecstatic at the prospect of finally beating the crud out of Rurik" then I concur!

I was moved to crying the manliest tears I ever cried in my life. No other game has woven an epic tapestry of tragedy and adventure such as this. I shall cherish the memories forever and pass down these tales to my children and grandchildren. The best part about these tales is that I was actually there!

Mine occurred last night while doing Ices Caves of Sorrow HM with hero/hench...

We pretty much breezed through it (including freeing the dwarf for the bonus part later on). I was like 'hey this is too easy' and didn't figure we'd have any trouble.

Until...

We came to the part where you free Evennia & Saidra. We engaged 3 mursaat eles and were doing fine, but then a group of 4 white mantle (mesmers and eles) quickly joined in - followed by a 2nd group of 4 white mantle with more mesmers and eles.

I could see it coming - nooo! Minions...dying...too...fast.... due to AoE spam. Which means - AoE will now be focused on - my group!

We tried to run - but to no avail.

Boom!

Just like that the good times turned horribly bad. Whole party wiped but myself during the retreat - and what's worse is: I had no rez skill equipped I even recently had purchased one of those new EotN rez scrolls - but (you guessed it) had left it in storage.

Was this the end?? Was there no hope for our intrepid heroes??

Well I guess that's ballgame! Better luck next time. GG and /fail.



But wait!!



Isn't there a cutscene when you rescue Evennia? Yes! If I can trigger that, then the whole party will auto-rez and we can continue! All is NOT lost!

One slight problem though - getting through that same wave of white mantle eles and mesmers who so easily had dispatched my entire group.

This was my moment, my chance to shine and be the hero - the one who saves the day!

Luckily, I'd brought the perfect tank build to counter these infidels. Despite not having a self heal - I methodically slayed each and every white mantle and did indeed trigger that cutscene (it was funny to see my arisen comrades' health bars initially be at 0 health; very lucky there were no enemies to attack at that point ).

So, DT saves the world, he and Evennia sail off into the sunset, yada yada yada. Just like in the movies {roll credits}
