What was the dumbest thing you did as a noob?

Hahahaha, same here!

I though that pre-Searing was all that Guild Wars had.
I was quite happy with just pre-Searing. by the way.

But that was only during the first week.

Then I walked into Old Ascalon... and deleted the character and made another one in pre-Searing, XDDDD.

The impact of looking at such a horrible landscape was too much, XD.

W/N Minion Master, always wondered why the energy ran out so quickly
Sold a black dye at the merch (that's a classic )

i logged onto Guru, and read a thread where JR said healing breeze was bad. i logged into the game, promptly took healing breeze off of my presearing monk/warrior, went into the catacombs, and died repeatedly.

my conclusion at the time: JR doesn't know what he's talking about.

my conclusion now: JR STILL doesn't know what he's talking about

LOL! Epic! <3 this comment. Go Moriz! QFT QFT QFT. You can't take it back now.

Well when i was a newbie (as a ele) i said ''omg i wanna dominate the 4 elements yay!!'' so whidout thinking i put stats on fire, water, air and eath but i didn't put any point to energy storage.
So then doing some missions with henchies i wondered why did i always made so little damage and my energy got out very fast.
And also i didnt know that i could change my attibutes how ever i wanted so i though that i permanently screwed it up and it was gonna be imposible to advance until i bought factions and created a character there, did the tutorial and when i saw that attribute thing... omg...

just when i started GW ran out of town and wondered why there wsn't anybody else and i kept spamming "hello any1 there?" for about 10 min lol

When I was a newbie, I thought this was a great build for my ele:

Deleting my full 15k luxon and 15k kurzick few months b4 the huge storage update.

DAMN you all anet!!! XD

Finishing pre and thought i buggered my character and account....good times!

Thought I could have 2 Elites and I remember saying it in Ember Light Camp on my monk after a skill cap run + I had captured many elites before that.

Bought a piece of 15K armor (chest piece), dyed black when it was expensive, not getting the rest of it and salvaged it months later.

remake my 15k Hydromancer armor after they change from AR: 60 +15 vs Cold to AR: 60 +10 vs Ele +10 vs Cold and few days later new patch change old armor to new mods >.<

merchant all green wands with +3^50 and buy Amulet of the Mist to exchange to the new one with +5^50 and same story few days later new patch .....

dye ing all my armor gray when the gray dye can be bhought at the merchant

Well this topic appears to be from when you were a noob but i think even now we make noobie mistakes...

Example:

I was never into farming in my whole time of playing Guild Wars, then one day i decided to try it. The thing is i started farming after the nerf and loot scaling.... >_< (started farming like a month ago)

I realized that i could actually identify items and salvage stuff, when i was playing Hells Precipice! (Was long into the game there ^^)

I thought all along that unidentified just meant that it was úber cool and rare!

Not getting a run to Lions arch was probably the dumbest thing.

I could never get out of the shiver peaks, it was like a maze I always ended up in circles and when I did get somewhere, I had to log out...forgot where I went and went in circles all over again.

Not to mention putting the skills

Animate minions, charm animal, animate vampiric horror, vampiric gaze, debilitating shot whirling defense and ressurection signet on my bar >.>

Got to Lion's Arch by fighting through explorable areas instead of missions on my first character :\

Noobiest thing I ever did was make and play my first character XD

She was a ranger with too few points in expertise and a bar filled with 10 energy skills + fire storm. A friend helped me get from Ascalon to Kryta, but sadly he was just as noob as I was. When we got to Yak's Bend we never noticed that from there on out the party size went up to 6, so up until Lion's Arch we just kept using Little Thom and Alesia and we kept wondering why all of a sudden the game had gotten so dang hard, I mean really...took us ages to get to LA

Still those were the days, those were the days...

Dyed my pouch black, but now i use it on my "lvl 16 presearing going for LDoA" mesmer.

"Hi alesia, how do you get your real name to show up like that? Also can I join the henchman guild? I have no experience but I can learn fast "
