This must be the most useless thread ever, and it will be flamed tons of times, i know.
But seriously, please, please tell me im not the only one to want to kill her three, four, five times in a row, with a bl**** BLUNT SPOON >:3
Leah Stone is the girl you have to liberate from the ether seal and escort throughout of the whole of the mission map of Abaddon's Mouth in Prophecies... either you do the "normal way" which mean you clear the whole map (takes more or less 40min) then run back and unlock her, or you follow her around, but she takes the most stupid routes available, and aggros half the continent of Tyria at the same time.
And THEN (i rly need to vent my anger) she stupidly repeats "This place is slowly draining my soul's remaining energy. We must hurry. I will not last long."
Yeah baby, then why do you walk as fast as a siege turtle? AND she's a mesmer!!!
Please, please, Anet, organise a special "Kill Leah Stone" weekend, where all GW players can vent their anger on the most stupid npc there is?
Go on, flame all you like, now ive said it -_-'
WHO doesnt hate Leah Stone?

Freeing her is an optional requirement.

She shouldn't be on a set path with set velocities at certain points. When you talk to her, she should be added to your party and follow you and your party's pacing. I agree that it takes so damn long for her to get to her bonus spot and it really shouldn't, especially after you've cleared the way first.

Maybe anet cna make costume-brawl event with characters disguised as hated NPCs.
Leah would surely be candidate for female mesmer.

Don't hate her, she is only annoying when playing H&H.
Otherwise, clear fort, free her, clear path while she is slow, have one member return to her to make sure she keeps moving and you should be fine.

All quest/mission NPCs should be:
- They should always follow the NPCs, unless they are guiding you to somewhere.
- If they are following the party or moving around in PvE, they should have body-block DISABLED always.
- If keeping the NPC alive it's not part of the objective, it should auto-resurrect as long as there are no enemies around, and after some time even if there are anemies around.
- If keeping them alive is part of the objective, they should always appear in the ally list.
In the particual case of Leah stone, she should 'detect' that there are no enemies in the fort and run to the door.

The only problem with the idea of editing Leah to be smart and follow the party at a normal pace is that Anet is being n00bish on the idea that they messed something up in one of their earlier games and refuses to go back and fix it to make the game play better.

FIX LEAH!!11!one!
Not sarcasm.

Hm... that's true.
They could change that mission to show the place to bring leah after talking to her in the map, as an icon.
The map icons are a great thing. In the same way they added shrines and collectors, they could add mission icons inside Prophecies and Factions icons.
Why not shop the Riverside Province towers, the Aurora Glade teleport stands, the door you have to run to in The Wall...
There are a lot of places in Prophecies to add the icons, and would make those mission have a 'refreshed' feeling.

Weither it helps or not someone mentioned that a pargon skill does make her move faster, its mentioned in the thread of little known GW facts.
Esprit
I don't hate Leah Stone.
zwei2stein
They did some bits ... like adding choisen ones to party list (still does not help you saving them, sigh)
Ressurectable noncritical NPCs, Critical NPCs in party list, map markers. There is alots of stuff they can do, agreed.

You should try Blacktide Den (3rd mission in Nightfall). This mission will also piss you off too. Difference is, you HAVE to follow the NPC because it's not an optional bonus... and you get to kill the stupid NPC at the end.
DarkWasp
Anyone remember when it used to be the dwarf in THK?
I swear, theres a rule in MMOs, sort of a NPC protect piss-off quota.

Not to be a downer....but Abaddon's is kind of like, you know, near to the end of the game. Isn't it supposed to be slightly hard?
Also, pretty sure I did that bonus with my mesmer + all hench so....don't complain.
Hench+mes = the suck.

It's not hard, just time consumming.

I hate her. Freaking slow ghost can go die... again x]. The mission isn't hard, but she's slow... >_>.
Alex Morningstar
She's not that bad. If you clear out everything and go back to get her, nothing to aggro. She walks slow up until a point, and then she'll start running. I can think of more annoying things.
Like Willa. Willa, she's a bitch. Now she should get a hate thread. RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing bitch.

Now you know why most players don't like MESMERS teehee.
Bryant Again
Isn't she the slow walking ghost? It's been awhile since I've done that quest. Maybe I just killed all the enemies ahead of her, went to the summit, and /danced.
I really can't remember, it's been some time. Are there any pop-ups that piss you off? Because I really remember not having an annoying time with her.

She does walk slowly but that bonus is pretty easy, especially if you clear the path beforehand.
The Riven
Yes the bonus is simple but...
She is annoyingly slow.
I cant help thinking if she moved a bit faster she wouldnt have ended up as a ghost in the first place.

i luv Leah, i can get a cup of coffee while she's "hurrying" her butt toward the bonus spot

I don't, she doesn't bother me in the least.

it doesn't take 40mins, it takes like 10mins top to kill everything.
All you do is kill everything up to the two bosses and then free her and clear the path while she walks zzz

You only need to do this twice, once fo NM, oncce for HM, both times its rly easy. Just go take a poo, wash your hands, brush teeth while shes walking and whwn you come back it will be done.
