Done something moronic lately?

Ok. Today (yesterday, whatever), I not only blasphemed the class of ranger, I did something completely moronic and inexcusable. Why was it so stupid? It was the second time I did the same thing

Well, the said incident occured in Fort Ranik. Right near the end. I was leveling my new Ranger, and we had just killed all the charr down in the valley with the trebuchet. Yes, the giant machine that catapults flaming whatnot of doom onto the target. Well, my two allies (one had already dropped) started rushing for the loot, and I decided I had enough time to fire the trebuchet again (I love flying objects and explosions). And my allies had just gotten to the target area (not even enough time to pick up the loot), and the catapult reduced them to a bloody pulp. No items, death, and then, of course, I received threats and insults (none that bad; understandably they were mad). I didn't even bring a rezz signet . So, I ended up redoing the mission with the same people (don't ask; I also did a quest in Frontier Gate with them as well), and we finished the thing the second time (no catapult for me).

The worst thing is; this same thing happened to me when I was leveling my monk, only I was able to rezz and my other allies were just as stupid and didn't know what had occured

Note: Yes, I am sorry I add to the anti-ranger hostility. I can't resist stupidity

you sir, are my hero. this is brilliant, i want to do it myself! Come on, there is nothing more fun then killing your own annoying teammember that was whining about you being a ranger. I tought it was unpossible to killl your own teammate, but you prove me wrong .

As for moronic things....
Well yesterday I really goofed up once. We found a few bone dragons, and I just wanted a screenshot of them badly. So while I was watching the bone dragon closely and yelled 'watch the birdy' in chat and made the shot, my teammates were killed by other roaming creatures. I was the monk of the group. Thank god they laughed about it and forgave me, since I pulled them though some hotspots allready, but it was embarressing as hell.

I'm trying to feel sorry for the catapult victims, but I'm laughing too hard. Comedy platinum.

Nice work rangers getting even a worse name than B4 . LOL I too can just sit there and shoot that damed thing forever its awsome LOL. I killed my GF and buddy and some of the henchman doing that the first time through kinda thought it woulda been like a firestorm spell group friendly . OOOPS.

mandarth

Do what i do for the Fort Ranik mission; used henchmen. They're dumb enough to stay behind and won't run unless (well) your at the target spot. By the way, i love that catapult. Instant destruction when it hit the target.

I loved the catapult when the char it killed would still drop loot.

Yea, I had a similar experience the first time I did it with my R/Me, only I killed my ENTIRE team in one shot. I however was not reamed as I always have Res Signet and was smart enough to res the monk.
Side note, I laughed so hard I was in tears

hey im going to try this tommorow

Im going to use the catapult and see if i can kill myself (thats right, by myself) It would be hard to fight through all the charrs again but i'll get the catapult, pull it and sprint to the target area and see if i die!

Once im done with Fort Ranik, can i go back again?

Yes

i mean the mission with the catapult. If the answer is yes than, good news, i'll kill my character tommorow.

If the answer is no, than i'll build a new character and wait till then to try it!

To my knowledge, you can redo completed missions...

Good luck getting to the blast radius in time...

oh wow, that is awesome I would've been cracking up too, classic comedy moment!

lol, I've not had this happen to me.. (doing the killing or being on the receiving end), but it always gives me a good laugh hearing about it. (especially in guild chat, hahaha)

I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky :P

I did this mission solo with my monk, and I used my henchmen to act as tanks to gather in the area so I could catapult the Charr -- and my henchmen, lol. My henchmen realized what was going to happen though, so they tried to follow me, trailing Charr who beat them down to death. Then the Charr happily gathered around the fire to rejoice over their accomplishment, then I launched the catapult. Mwa ha ha.

Guilty - just can't seem to get the timing right on that darn catapult.
Side note: my character, was a ranger too, thank god I had res.....hehehe

the other day, I was in The Granite Citadel, about to buy the dragon boots for my partially completed dragon set for my warrior. I already had chest piece, helm, and leggings. I even had a guild mate lend me 100gp to get me to 15,000.

For some unexplainable reason, I clicked leggings instead of boots.

That was pretty moronic.

The other night I accidentally casted Backfire on a Charr Axe Warrior. Though my henchmen didn't say anything, I could tell they would be laughing at me when they got back to Ascalon.

I got the brilliant idea to start from Yak's Bend to do Althea's Ashes so I could have a party of six. I was using henchmen. I hadn't been in Grendich Courthouse yet and happened to come across it and went in without thinking. My party of six was instantly changed to a party of four. Oh well...
