When I get a bunch of rare skins I go 'woah'. Until I see they're white, with no mods.

White magmas shield, and storm bow today. Also a white requirement 8 focus, +12 energy.

I'll have to go with nice PUGgers as well, had a great party from Ring of Fire - Hell's Precipice today.

Hooked scythe, dyed blue - nice muted glowing effect.

Torment Scythe - didn't realize how good they looked until up close.

Destroyer Spear + Asuran Focus - nice looking casting combo on a monk.

When I turned on the high resulotion textures for player models in town WOAH what a difference, this needs to be an option in the graphics settings I cant believe how some of the armors look in high res which id never get to see unless I was wearing it. Theres a mod out there that forces high res textures if anyones interested i recommend it.

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guide..._graphics_mods


heres a link for the mod, it has some UT sounds mod in it too which thankfully doesnt work so you can ignore that, just put 2 files in youre GW directory, if anyone has the same type of mod thats clean and safe please share.

edit:

fixed link

Interesting colors or combos of player armor impress me. So does talented and friendly PUGs (I had a great one and we did Unwaking Waters, but then we all agreed to keep going to the end. It was AMAZING.).

My biggest wow tends to be scenery. I LOVE lots of places in Vabbi. The town in Tihark Orchids, Resplendent Makuun, Garden of Seborhin, etc.

Basically the only thing that really makes me go 'whoa' is when someone has a really cool set of skills that I never thought of...can't tell you how many times I have been in RA with a monk full FoW with the blindfold and all, and their voltaic spear and torm shield...everyone on our team is like OMG WE WILL OWN WE GOT THIS AMAZING MONK...quite the opposite really, most people with expensive items suck at PvP...it just shows that they spent more time farming than thinking over their builds.

The only thaing that has really made me WHOA is once in TA I was with a couple HcH guys running their Famine build and I used [skill]Anurism[/skill] on a RtL Ele for 272 Dmg, and he died.

It's the most dmg I've ever done in one "hit"

I aslo go to AB and attack the Base Defender for the occasional "WHOA that was cool death. Somestimes in HA/GvG/TA when you are facing a spike team and that first spike is epicaly clean and i/teammate die I'm like WHOA

Sometimes I WHOA when Im about 90% through with a big vanquish with just me and the H/H and I'm totally not really paying attention and bored and Gold items drops, it's so much a WHOA cause what happened was awsome, but because I was really not paying attention and that woke me up.

When the frenzy+healsig+flare warrior is wearing Obsidian Armor and carrying Tormented weapons. That's around the time I'm pressing M and going back to the outpost to do the mission H/H, because that's usually the guy who complains that I don't heal him when he's out of aggro circle...

Best "woah!" experience was in Shing Jea D1 where a bunch of people were ego talking, flashing emotes, swapping elite armors sets, popping mini pets, and flashing titles....

....then this level 2 sin in blue starter armor with no title just walks in front of everyone and throws a pheonix out over the whole group. Everyone just sat there dumbstuck. Ninja rank ftw.

5) People wanting to group for things instead of playing the game like it's a single player RPG all the time instead of a MMO
