That is to say, if you could modify Guild Wars in a certain way that it would cause unspeakable frustration to general players and give you immense amusement watching it, what would you change/add?

I might add a little randomly triggered knock-down on any moving players. Basically, if a player's character is moving, they have a chance to randomly get knocked down.

I also think having random spawn of mobs using Ursan Blessing and Zaishen emote on deach characters would be quite amusing.

Edit: Also, make a character drop all his/her gold upon death and also place a chance for him/her to drop their equipped weapon.

Make everyone look like stickmen again, and remove Ursan and Protective Spirit from the game.

I think removing all pvp titles would do a pretty good job at starting a riot in gw.

Oh and for the heck of it i would also get rid of ursan and let decent builds come back again.

You can only use Ursan Blessing in Jade Quarry.

Monk spells cost 25 energy each.

make ursan stronger
make shadow form last for 45 seconds at 0 shadow arts, the full 60 seconds at 16
make cons free to make, just mats

/end sarcasm

on a serious note, I'd make ecto never drop anymore so that people would bitch about it constantly for like a week. would be hilarious:

"I HAVENT GOTTEN AN ECTO IN A WEEK ON MY PERMA SHADOW FORM!! WTF!!!"

Heh i think youd be pissing quite a lot of people off who got their R12 hero title, or anything in between.

but removing titles doesnt hurt people enough, ah wait i know, revert the storage to 1 tab and no materials page. there might be a sudden interest in char slots for mules, which is more money for anet lol.

close all portals

And make a message when trying to enter one come in as
"Sorry *insert racial slur* your kinds not allowed"

For pvp buttons and mission buttons it would say

"Insert 25c to continue" and play the ol arcade game over sounds

and change all the music to numa numa

and then roll back the servers all the way back to factions.

But remove all prophecy skills.

Then give everyone pink armor, except for the women characters who have all been deleted because girls don't play games anyways so they were a waste of data.

then make the weekend event loose all items.
Whenever you kill a monster you lose an item from your inventory.

And make every monster except for the ones at shin je monestary have 9000 hp and attack for 2000 damage nearby aoe that enchant strips on each attack (before damage is factored) and remove weapon spells including all the monsters in pre-searing.

Oh and delete the monk and warrior profession

Do I win?

I would buff it to add 50 damage every attack. Then make all mobs have five Ursans, one Imbagon, and two healer's boon monks.

Then people might realize why PvE skills are overpowered...

Ursan in PVP, remove the energy degen. Double the damage of 1 and 2 on the ursan bar, make the 33%speed boost 50% and permanent, make ursan roar instant recharge, and cause KD and weakness, and make all ursan skills 1 sec recharge, and have ursan rage cause 3 sec KD. DDD. Oh but it doesn't end there. I will create two more modes, super easy, and super hard mode. As the name implies, they are super version of NM and HM yeaaaaa

Eliminate all res shrines except ones near zones

Add PlayNC coins to online store to purchase all weapons armor or upgrades in game.

Add to Online store for purchase with PlayNC coins a cost to use PVE only skills for "X" amount of minutes.

When WTS, or WTB is used in all chat auto ban takes effect and account banned for 6 hours.

Add to online store PlayNC coin cost of "X" amount to remove 1 hour of ban.

I think that would cause a stir :P

Erase all accounts and make everyone start from scratch. Everything is reset to when prophecies first came out. The current nerfs are still in place, but no one has any money, weapons, titles, pets, nothing.

Random rick rolls and pop-ups during any explorable, mission, quest, etc.

Change everyone's weapon skins to candy cane or starter skins.

Remove all titles from the game.

Have stacks and stacks of ecto drop in all outposts every few minutes for a week.

Replace all monsters in all elite areas with lvl 1 mudkips.

Change max damage to all weapons to 0-0.

Change the skins and AL of all armor to that of common starter armor.

Free mini panda, beetle, ghostly, naga, vizu, yeti, oni, gwen, etc. handouts to everyone on their first day birthday.

Ursan is now a PvP skill and all of it's skills instantly kill target foe and all of that foe's party members. While under Ursan Blessing, you gain +10 energy regeneration.

Instead of GvG matches and guild halls there will now be diplomat halls. When guilds are paired up they are placed in a diplomat hall and sit at a round table. Here the guilds discuss how they can work out a truce and resolve their differences in a kind and peaceful manner with a binding contract.

You can now join a party for RA.

Newbie PvP arenas now allow lvl 20's.

Remove all dye and runes from the game.

All monsters in PvE are now lvl 100, have 1,000,000 health, 1000 energy, and run the newly buffed Ursan Blessing.

Roll all characters back to lvl 1.

Remove elite skills from the game.

All skills are now unlinked and require no energy and their effects are very minimal.

When using a signet of capture on a boss, you die instantly, err7, your character is deleted, and GW uninstalls while your computer explodes.

Instead of missions, the game plays rick rolls for an hour.

Consumable use results in an effect similar to the use of signet of captures.

No Regular or Hard modes - just Hardcore mode - When you die, you can never play that character again.

In addition: Make all towns open PvP.

"-decreased shadow form duration from to 10 seconds"
"-protective spirit is a monster skill now"
"-FoW armor means nothing now, so everyone has one for free when starting a character"(sarcasm)
-added new dance effects
"-now, when assassins do the robot dance, they gain 1000 armor and backfires damage back to enemies"
"-when an male elementalist dances, party member get their mind blown, which causes bleeding and deep wound"
"-mesmers loose 1000 armor and virility while dancing"
weapon updates
"-Ball hammers now add +20 to balls, which is great for warrior/monks"
"-storm bows now have a chance to kill players and party members when entering in contact with water"
"-candy cane weapons and all sugar items now have an expiration date"
"-if players drink too much alcohol in towns, town guardians may spawn and ban them for 2 days"

-added a new dungeon to the guildwars prophecies.

Gwmaster's Inferno

new challenges await players entering this dungeon,new items, such as The Gmaster's blade, which kills every foe in the radar zone everytime your character blinks his eyes.
New epic boss to defeat, the Gwmaster, when facing him watch for female characters, since he may charm them make them their sexy slaves of hell.
-When fighting him, male characters cant gain morale from items or foes,they loose all virility and become female characters...
-if you die or become a female character, that character belongs to the gwmaster and looses all items, player must then start a new character.
