I was bodyblocked in red base on Warriors Isle on the stairway (was playing RC). They were holding me for timer, which was going to be coming up shortly. I don't have a doublevamp set or minus health anything, so it looked pretty grim. I didn't cast anything, and was just hoping that someone would make a mistake and kill me so I could base res.

I was at the top of the stairs, but one of our midliners decided to try the catapult anyway. The cat landed right as the timer turned.

Everyone who was bodyblocking me on the stairs was killed. Right after time.

Half of their team was just gone, and I survived.

I was on a sliver of health, so I ROF'ed and ran. They didn't finish me off, and they got steamrolled immediately afterward.

Me + 3 friends, EoE bombing AB.

Seeing every single person die, LITERALLY every single one, every time they spawned, was hilarious. Then they tried to kill us first, with our team mates (other 2 teams, whatever) trying to help them (lolwut?) which made them angrier and deader.

Hahahahahahaa

Mmmm, I remember last time they did a double hb points weekend (the only time I ever hb) I was actually winning more frequently than I expected. So everyone always asks to roll, I always say no. This one guy, after I say nty, starting in about how he's rank100 in hb, he's gonna kick my ass etc etc. The entire time. As I recall, we both rushed the npc shrine and fought over it. Took about a minute for me to kill his monk hero and take the shrine, then I parked everyone there and went around solo capping. Within a couple minutes I had all the shrines, with him running after me trying to retake them. Less than halfway through the match, he had maybe 3 points, I had like 12 or 15, he literally said 'wtf am I doing, I'm supposed to be tanking this game not fighting. Lol you got lucky' then he leaves. Normally I never respond to any of that stuff, but I had to pm him and be like 'dude, if you're gonna talk crap like that you better have more to back it up, lol rank100 my ass' So he starts pming me saying he's r10 hero, r8 glad, r6 champ, and r8 commander he'll show me his title etc etc. LOLWTF.

Probably that time when I posted the high RBR score that held through the first Friday that the game was released and seeing it hold top 100 through the weekend.

The day after the AI scatter mechanism was introduced, i didnt know about it, and went to do a quick troll run with my 55....... that was a more serious wtf moment

The first time I rubberbanded. I was running someone, and I went through the portal to get to the next zone...I kept on going into a snowy area(it was in shiverpeaks) for like 20 seconds...when I suddenly shot back into a group of Mountain Trolls...and my SF ran out half a second later. D:

Mine would have to be when I first got Nightfall and Eye of The North, I was completely new to the whole idea of heros and didn't realise that you could change their skills or weapons.

Then, I went into the account part and saw Hero Battles and thought I would give it a try, needless to say I got completely slaughtered ^^.

It wasn't untill a friend who plays took the time to explain how they work,that I realised, and now it really is LOLWTF.

More recently, it would have to be using the wrong salvage kit on my newly bought Destroyer Spear, /facepalm.

This was a few months after I just got GW and tried PvP

So I was in RA when I got stuck on the staircase. I was floating in the air and wondering how I was losing health?

I eventually realized that apparently even though I was stuck, I still could be attacked. So yeah I died by a staircase bug...

During a fun GvG night we played Byob (this was in the old vod days, with the npc's and the lord walking to the flagstand).
We played on the opp map (isle of solitude iirc) against a normal balanced team. We had at least 3 lone sins, a sig of illusion skill steal mesmer, and some random monks who played builds including swordattacks.
I am sure the opponent had as much fun as we did, they seemed to enjoy it, but the biggest wtf was when we managed to win the battle after vod. I think we had serveral 60dp'ed on our side, but what wonders restore life did!
Never had so much fun in a gimmick GvG and still kudo's to the opp team for playing and not resigning. But winning it was really the topping on the icecream.

a buddy of mine first time ever in ha, i figuered i'd give him a good headstart, he was unranked, unexperienced, but was playing the game for long enough to understand all the basic playstyle concepts and perfectly understood the game mechanics, so, let him in on a r10+ group, he goes "protective was koalai" and stands there, holding onto the glorious party heal that it was as he should have been, and then sees everyone getting pressured, doesn't pay attention to the fact that the enemy team was using soul bind, bye bye.

My two biggest "OMG" moments in guild wars were one after the other, and were minutes after I joined ZoS. I was in the guild hopping business and I happened to play with a ZoS member in RA, who I thought was pretty cool and we got along well (Funny Story: turns out the guy leaves 1 week after I join). But anyway, I asked if I could join, he says sure, just apply on the site. I applied on the site, was interviewed on vent, and accepted. The first thing I do is say hello to all of my new guildies. Care to take a guess who the first person to reply was? Gaile Grey. Needless to say that was pretty unexpected, and I was stunned. A few minutes later, I switch to the alliance tab in the guild window only to find that our alliance members were all top-20 GvG guilds, and was again left speechless. It was pretty awesome going to [rawr], [dR], [mkay], [baby] et. al's guild hall after watching them on Observer mode for as long as I've played guildwars. Not to menton getting emote spiked by a handful of people from [rawr], I have a screenshot of it lying around on a different computer.

When I was mapping the bonus area of Dunes of Despair I eventually died. Fortunately the henchies came to rez me, but there was no possible way for them to reach me. They just teleported towards me.

...

Most times when my pet or one of the heroes / henchies were stuck at a shrine. (And I of course did not notice until I was far away...)

my only wtf moment i can remember was about the early days in gw and one of the first fow pugs i ever did
we had a good mixed team with different builds what they normally used but it worked great
we had a w/mo and when we where at the forest
we where fighting a mob
and after the fight we noticed the warrior was gone
according to the party window he got killed but his body wasn't there
and because he didn't say anything we continued the quest for forge
when we got at the gates his body was there and appearently he tried to solo tank those shadows with us at the other side of the map^^
doesn't goes well with only banish and some newb axe skills
ah well long time ago i had a wtf moment

Reading all these posts reminded me of another lolwtf GW's moment from over 2 years ago. I was in a great guild called Americaz Most Wanted[AmW] and we recruited a guy called Bill who was really into farming/buying/selling Sorrow's Furnace green weapons. He usually kept to himself but one time he took us guildies on a SF farming run. We killed Bortak and he drops not one, but two green items (the wand and offhand) which was extremely rare. Even more unlikely, they both dropped for me! Bill mutters something like "do you know how long I've been trying to get those damn things to drop?", and the next day he had quit the guild. I can't help thinking it was because of me lol.

I can't think of my best but I remember one that happened recently.

Yesterday i learned how to do HFFF, and I decided to do it myself on my ranger. I checked my hero list and realized I didn't have an Assassin hero. I thought I would run to Gunner's Hold really quick a grab Anton (you may notice at this point my mistake

). I had done some RA ealier and GWs was running fine. I arrived at Gunner's hold and proceded to do the Norn Fighting Tourny (have you found it yet

). After going through the tourney once and no Anton, I went back to Gunner's Hold and experienced the worst lag of my 2 years of Guild Wars. It was terrible. less than 1 fps, 100k average ping (or something like that). I had no idea what its problem was. Plus, it continued like this for an hour as I struggled through the tourny, looking for Anton. I eventually gave up and mapped to Kamadan to get Zenmai. My lag was mostly gone by this point. Half way through the quest i realized Zenmai wasn't max level, and at this time I really didn't want to level her up. I went on wiki to check out both heroes and smacked myself when I realized Anton wasn't one of the heroes you get from the tourny.

1 hour of RA, and another hour of horrible lag trying to accomplish an impossible goal. I laughed much that night

I have had many, but mostly have forgotten them.

The most recent was doing some lame SS/LB point farming with my henchies.

I got to the sapphires as soon as my HH were finishing them off. Low and behold, drop: Gold Fellblade, i pick it up, req 9 and woot inscribable. I have played all of GW hard areas as well for 3 years and I get my best drop ridin' the wurms. LOLZ.

Just did DoA Foundry with a physical based group. We were down to the last few Dementias on the first snake, then we got down to 1 (with the Monks and one of the Assassins alive). As soon as the Dementia dies, he also uses Mystic Sandstorm while conveniently places next to a Monk with res scrolls that dies at the exact same time as the last kill.

Back when Factions came out I rushed it with my new necro in 2 days for the rest of the weeks i was farming Ghials Staff nvr got the drop must have solo'd him 100+ times. A week later I'm taking my buddy through the game we go and kill Ghial cause hes a necro and needs Flesh Golem and low and behold he gets Ghials Staff... I was so pissed I actually stopped playing my necro for awhile.

I also was farming trolls one time back before factions and I got a R8 max damage Gold fellblade ( unfortunatly I forgot you could swap mods) unknowingly id'd it got a Fellblade of Pruning and I totally salvaged it.. 15^50% too...

If I could kick myself in the balls.. I totally would, some good came of it I found a clean R8 fellblade shortly after no inscription but I put a furious/fortitude combo on it and i still have it to this day!
