Have to say I was stunned when I completed Hells Precipice with 7 henchies as a warrior/mesmer.

I had been on many full groups that had failed that mission.

My greatest achievment is This
I killed everything except what you see in the picture with a R/Mo solo. That is the Fissure of Woe: Wailing Lord's Forest. My second greatest achievement will be to finish writing the guide on how to do it.

This was fun to think about and my answer surprised me.

At first I was sure that it was finally getting FOW armor for my warrior. Then I realized that the process of getting the armor - the trading and farming and hoping - was more fun than actually having the armor.

So that process is one answer for me.

But I discovered an even bigger achievement as I thought about all that.

My most amazing achievement has been in getting nearly 7 months of enjoyment for one low priced purchase. This game is an enormous bargain.

Hmm i guess mine would be: -

When in Uw whole team died while being attacked by 3 squids. I ran away but was followed and could not escape so I had to fight them. I won and resurected the team.

1.4 Million Xp on my Warrior

Inventing a new build for farming grifs with a warrior using a sword which was not influenced or similar to any other build.

And getting more gold than i know what to do with.

or you could do it the real easy way, and take 2 monks a warrior/tank only, and trappers or whatever else you want to take out the enimies. all you gotta do to beat this mission is have the tank grab a torch, stand by the drarf dood. he'll end up taking all the hits, and monks are there to keep him alive. the trappers trap (or another character that can kill ) simple as that. cant loose.

Like some people, I've never gotten that far into HoH, hardly do PvP, much less be a part of a guild that does well in such battles, does not have Fissure armor, or have gotten those items of very high value.

I have, however, gotten some nice greens from SF, like Drago's Sundering Flatbow and Morgriff's Staff. I have saved people's butt from total defeat in PvE missions, and I had a 20-win streak in the Snowball Arena over the last Holiday season.

mine would probably have to be getting halfway through the black curtain, losing all but 3 other people and finishing the villany of galrath on max death penalty. (this was before the reward was boosted to 4000 exp and before the difficulty was watered down to a kids playland).

my greatest GW achievements...

1. getting 4 chars through the whole game (still working on last 2 to have done all 6 primaries...)
2. managed to get 4 co-worker / friends, and 2 of their spouses to play guild wars (it was a joke at work that i moonlight as a sales rep for GW)
3. managed to win an "honorable mention" in the Name the Boss contest...

using a r/w(NOT IWAY) and fighting with a smite monk. defeated a solid looking team 2 (us) to 4 (them). they even killed the monk but couldnt get a killl on me.

the run down of the match. we just won 3 matches in a row. 2 people drop as soon as we enter the crag. me and the monk are like eh wtf lets go have fun. we end up beating the 4 man team. i killed 2 of their warriors and they killed my monk. score was 2 to 1. i think that after 9 or so months of playing GW every day i might be ready to try a PuG in tombs instead of hoping to find a guild that actually pvps.

ok This

Its me (centre blue monk) and a few of the many members of XU. I'm most proud of finding a guild that is as full of great people. I'm sure there are other great guilds out there so no disrespect, but I think many of you know what i mean when I say i'd rather spend 2 hours doing guild missions with us all on TS over finding ANY rare.

However in the pure gaming sense of the post I'd say beating Torlin the Rogue boss near Ranik with my just out of pre beastmaster. I solo'd the quest which required some difficult work just to get there but the main problem was getting round Torlin's healing signet. So after about 15mins of him hammering my poor wolf Baz and Baz biting Torlin to pieces the fight was going no where cus i could tank my pet with my secondary monk skills/comfort animal and he had healing signet. So i pulled back and started again and with careful timing with Bane signet/banish and symbol of wrath i backed him into a corner he could not run from the aoe from and killed him. It took me ages to get him shephard him there and was well chuffed when i got him. Yeah i know, its a bit lame in the scheme of things but it meant something to me.
