Hmm I remember a necromancer in Barradin's Estate offering me seven starter swords for all of my dyes. I figured the dyes were worth only one gold each, and swords would at least be useful to me.

when i started with playing i had a necro and my build was absolute crap
didn't use soul reaping
also
i still had starter armor from the very beginning
i got tired of playing gw cuz of dying all the time until my friend said i had to buy new max armor so i would stop dying all the time
that's when i bought ascalon necro armor wich was the most uglies piece of sh*t
after that i got my sh*t together and started saving for luxon elite armor
that was when i stopped acting noob

Tried to double up on runes and wondering why they didn't stack (on a warrior). Then on my first Necromancer, I ran a sup Curses and sup Death. Tried to so SS and MM at the same time. I was always dead, imagine that. No HP due to -150 from runes and only +30 from a minor vigor to offset that.

Well, I am still a noob, so I am still doing dumb things (2 year playing BTW)

Sold my first Ecto to merchant, for 100g.

When I finaly found out about traders, and Ecto was 12k.

1) Mistook Dust for Black Dye..

2) Traded a Kuunavang +12k for a Totem Axe..

well,back at newb days I got a old school black dye in the stinger quest cave,and I remember I merched the dye black dye...I was like..wow.1g for a dye...

My first character was a warrior who I put a major rune of axe mastery on pretty early in his development. It was one of those old -50 major runes. It wasn't until after Nightfall was out that I realized major runes had been changed to -35. I felt pretty silly I'd been keeping that old -50 on him for so long.

My first character was a Ranger in Prophecies. I never used henchmen because I was so used to playing single-player games that I never even noticed them to begin with. I considered Great Northern Wall very hard (I was level 6 at the time) until someone asked me why I would solo that mission at the level I'm at.

Thus, this is how I discovered that henchmen were important.

I had a e/r with a pet....... found out pets are not tanks
goodbye fluffy

the noobest thing i ever did, besides the fact of refusing help bc i was scared to be called a noob ^_^, had to be either never selling my thing to the merchant (so i just dropped them and picked up w/e dropped), or when ectos were 10k i traded a guy it for 10 gold but from that i learned to actually look at what his offer was lol... but i miss my noob days thats when the game was a lot of fun since everything was new to me.

Good, because that's typically illegal.

made a "Dragon Warrior" E/w with PBAoE and sword attacks

rofl, i owned the first mission of factions with it!!



my friend gave me a sup abosorbtion rune for my warrior, then i found 1.
so i used both!!!

So I have been playing for almost three years I have all the campaigns logged many hours of play time. But just last week I was bitten by the n00b bug.

I decided that I wanted a change of pace and that I would delete a char on my alt account and start over in presear and relive the good ol days of Tyria. I logged into the account picked the char to delete and deleted him. I created my new presear necro and was off and playing happily. About an hour later I thought oooh I have some cools stuff on another char that she could use here in presear.

By now you are all laughing knowing what I did. Thats right I picked the char to delete, yet didn't check his inventory first. I had not played that account in a while so I had forgot who was who and what stuff I had but what I remember having that must have been on the deleted char was;

2 Charr Bags
50+ dye of various color
collector materials
purple weapons from char farming
chocolate bunnies

I hung my head and a little voice in the back of my mind said "N00B!"

Not GW, still new to the game.

But, the first day I started WoW, I fell off of Teldrassil. Didn't think spirit rez, didn't even remember the tool tip about the hearth...I swam. After trying to recover my corpse four times.

If you know WoW, you know Teldrassil and how much of my time that took up.


I can't wait for the interactive world of GW2. I will be suicide jumping off of every cliff I can find again.

When I started HA I equipped my monk with glyph of concentation and restore life.

When I first used lightning surge, I took inspired hex to remove it off my foe so I could use it again.

I used to epidemic my conjure phantasm for a couple of weeks untill I learnt what conditions were.

The first time I sold something I also gave the buyer the amount of gold i was selling it for, thinking I was setting its price.

I merched my first ruby.

I was a noob and had someone take a copy of prophecies for me from an electronics store

it was all downhill from there, dumb dumb game
