The Gulid Wars Bucket List of Eccentricities

Im going to have to admit ive actually explored the catacombs in pre sear - was my first chr in prophs and keeping up with my outstanding ability of being unable to go from A to B without getting lost - i got lost many times and went round the whole place and daftly enough i eventually found the exit to the estate which was what i was after.

Yes my amazing ability of going A to B has failed me many times like first time going to toa - i ended up in beetletrun and next attempt i ended up in kessex peak.

Most of us have done it. The true challange is to kill the army and run just in time to speak with the Wall guard to complete the mission with one character.

PURE EPICNESS


Been blind 5 straight years not seeing the TRUE CHALLENGES IN DA GAME!

Done this on my ssin, not too long ago, was a cakewalk imo.. She killed me a couple times but UA hero ftw^^

I would say: Complete DoA HM naked, but that one is easy.. I know someone who does it a lot lol..

My alliance recently did a run like this. No heroes, no cons, no armor. It all adds up to BOOTY-FOW!

DONE THEM ALL cept i Power Locked cry of frustration and disrupting throwed savage shot on purpose only to rupt the next skill enemy was gonna use, of course no one really knows what an aopponent is gonna do so...its all about hope
i have screens here:

Or just use Signet of Illusions as the elite, with 14 Illusion Magic and 13 Fast Casting. Also, for PvE, I would get Smooth Criminal instead of Resurrection Signet. It's just more fun :P

Lol I've done every one of these... I'd say that pretty much all of them are too easy to be on the list actually.


I'd also like to add one of my own:

Beat a HM dungeon (or all HM dungeons and elite areas... whatever) using a team comprised only of warriors and paragons. (This used to be called "Yellow-way" because all the skills you'd use were yellow)

Mine aren't meant to be XXXtremeChallengeIntense HMx9000 Hard. Mine are just to bring people back to some of the things that really made this game fun and exciting.

No where in the OP does it say that the list must be tough. In fact, the OP put have a dance party with Abaddon (obviously this isnt tough).

New possible addition (I'm sorry its not hard):

Complete FoW or UW (in HM if you want) with 2 monks or less and 6 characters with only Ursan equipped.

THe poinjt is bringing only copy-speall skills, and no skills that support them, just like Blobby.

I already added Smooth Criminal to the PvE version.

Got a few more to add:

"Parental Blessing~ The True Nature of Love"
-Bring only Gwen and Keiran into UW with you and successfully kill Dhuum.
(actually, is that even possible?)

"Haruhiite"
-Beat all campaigns with only Females in your party.

"Narutoad"
-Beat all dungeons with only Assassins in your party.
(cheers to SCer's!)

"I'm a Loser"
-Beat a campaign entirely with Discordway
(oh wait, haven't most of us already done that? ;P)

-Beating all of DoA by ONLY flagging AI? You have to kill yourself, of course. Could call it "Blind Belief~Religion/Science" or something.

-Beating DoA with only Ursan on 7/8 party members, one monk- call it "Overbearing Truth"!

-"Patience is a Virtue"-Vanquish Flame Temple Corridor with a 4 man party that only consists of casters, with you and your heroes ONLY having one attribute of skills equipped. All those skills HAVE to be spells or 'ruptable by Power Block as well.

-"Filthy Victory"-Beat Frostmaw's with just yourself and your AI, HM. WITH NO Hex Removal.

...Oh, I'm straying a little too far away from the point of the post... things to do before leaving GW?

-Beat Unwaking Waters (HM or NM), in under 3 minutes.
-Go through all of Sorrow's Furnace. It's the most beautiful dungeon IMO in the game.
-

I don't think the Parental Blessing one is technically possible. I really like the flagging AI one, I would call it something like 'Divine Hand' myself. And the Unwaking Waters one is very easy, with a h/h party you can manage sub 1.5 min runs by killing Kuunavang while she's flying around the vortex.

- "Making It Last"
-- Let Shiro Tagachi use Impossible Odds a minimum six times, then defeat him in Imperial Sanctum.

- "Enduring Hell"
-- Complete Hell's Precipice in Hard Mode using a party of three or less.

- "Fear Our Godly Wrath"
-- Defeat Abaddon using a party of three or less. The party must have the same primary class.

- "Dwarven Smash!"
-- Complete the mission Thunderhead Keep using only Warriors, Assassins and Dervishes.

- "Pet Is Everything"
-- Defeat the Great Destroyer with a party of four or less with a pet in your party. The pet must not die.

- "The Walking Dead"
-- Complete the mission Arborstone with at least three minions under the control of any player.

- "Rhea's Challenge"
-- Vanquish Rhea's Crater in under 40 minutes.

- "Zhed's Challenge"
-- Complete the mission Kodonur Crossroads with no Monks or Ritualists.

- "Forest Crossing"
-- Complete the mission The Wilds solo with the bonus objective completed also.

"Wait, Is this Map Upside Down?"
Completely explore every level of every dungeon

"This. Is. SPARTA!"
Using only warriors and paragons, stem the tide of demons in the Stygian Vale

"Disco Inferno"
While on fire, get your whole party of the same profession to dance(6 or more)

"Look! No Hands!"
Complete all the camaigns without equipping a weapon

"Slow but Steady"
Using only degen skills, vanquish an area

"Animal Cruelty"
Kill every charmable animal in the game

"Hell Just Froze Over"
Clear the Burning Forest with only cold elemental skills in FoW and EoTN

"New Sheriff"
Kill all Corsair bosses

Can't think of a clever title but...

Kill X number of bosses while wielding the unique weapon they drop.

(i.e. defeating Arbor Earthcall with Arbor's Staff, defeating Molotov Rocktail with Rocktail's Stinger, etc...)

Just seems like a fun concept.

This is rather fun...

"Healers? Who needs them?"
* Beat 25 missions in HM without any party member using a skill on an another ally, or skills that provide healing, extra health or or health regeneration to allies.
(That is, the only heals allowed are self-heals. Party-wide hex and condition removals are fine as long as they don't heal also, but not targeted hex or condition removal)

"Absolute Parry"
Using skills that end after blocking one attack, block 10 consecutive attacks in PvP. (And piss off someone in the process )
Examples of valid skills:
* Auspicious Parry
* Deadly Riposte
* Riposte
* Shield Bash
* Shield Guardian
* Burning Shield
* Shield of Force

"Medic!"
* Prevent the death of an ally 100 times in PvP.
Examples of skills that count for this:
* Angelic Bond
* Divine Intervention
* Judge's Intervention

"The Drunken Brawler"
* Finish Kilroy Stonekin's quest in Sorrow's Furnace in HM with a party of 8 warriors that are drunk during the whole quest and equipped with the following build:
Drunken Blow
Desperation Blow
Drunken Master
Dwarven Stability
Feel No Pain
Shove (Elite)
<Healing Signet of Lion's Comfort>
<Any Tactics non-elite shout>
(Order of skills and attribute points to player's discretion)
You can zone to SF without being drunk, but before anyone talks to Kilroy Inside, everyone must be drunk.

"Don't stop me now"
* Run 33% faster while under the effects of crippling.

"It's a good day to dye"
* Use 1000 vials of dye. Gray dye doesn't count.

"Can't eat a cake and use it later"
* Fight 1000 consecutive hours with only customized weapons"
(You can equipe them and try them out, but you can't use a skill while having a non-customized weapon equipped, or the timer resets. Off-hands would count only if ANet ever adds any benefit for off-hand customization, and let weaponsmiths customize them)

"The Golden Army"
* Have all heroes unlocked, leveled up to level 20, and fully equipped with armor upgrades and rare (gold) weapons.
That is, each of their pieces of armor with the rune and insignia slots filled, and each of them with two handed weapons or one handed weapons+offhands, all of them maxed, req 9 and with maxed upgrades.
The runes don't have to be rare, but the weapons must be rare.

"Elona, Land of Treasures"
Obtain a ruby or a sapphire from a salvaging each of the following items: a Geode, a Roaring Ether Heart, each of the Djinn essence, an Ancient Lodestone, and a bag of Pillaged Goods. Also get one from opening a Treasure.

What about:
"Die By Your Own Weapon!"

>* "Reap the Reaper".
>Defeat Dhuum with a party composed of 8 Dervishes.

This needs to be done and made into a youtube video.

that's not difficult at all.
arcane orders healers, ebon dust aura with volley, vow of strength dervs

it would be really fun

Anyone who hasn't done it, must do it. Dead serious.
Fondest mission memories are this.
I remember being a new player in 05, and my pug team and I for some reason not being able to outrun the bastards. So I told them all I'd stay back and fight them...
I went out in style.

Came back a month after Factions release with an assassin and killed them all, no mercy.

I'd say go from one end of the map in GvG to another with shadow of haste and cancel it...but you can't do that anymore. Those were the days.
