Never did anything else but run, he barely even attacked...

I was playing as war and was seriously bored so I went War/R with favorable winds, practiced stance, and apply poison + some sword attacks. Was it lame, yes it really was. That has been the dumbest thing I had ever done other than use a premade paladin in gvg...and win 2-3 rounds with it.

N: claiming to be healer with all nec skills
Mo: nothing. monks are perfect and can do anything

Yeah, when I have Dunham in my party, he keep spamming Distortion when there is even no enemy there.
Back to topic :
Warrior : Using Fire Storm or Meteor Shower. Dumb ? No, he had Harmstring, so foe can't run.
Ranger : Apply Poison with Barrage. Wow, this combo rocks, it owns 6 foes at same time.
Mesmer : Use Backfire on caster and immediately Shatter Delusion it. Big damage, right ? And casting Guilt on monks and Shame on other casters. I'm sure that many mesmers still think these are "seem" same skills.

ahaha. Ya, Dunham is pretty dumb, but sometimes he whips out an empathy at some pretty good moments. What I've been trying to figure out is, what is that staff he's carrying? Looks like a curses staff, but I can't figure it out.

To be fair the only reason Dunham totally spams Distortion is becuase its 5seconds cooldown. Cynn/Orion spam Fire Attunement (or is it Aura of Restoration) everytime its available too. I'm sure he stops using it actually in battle though
Looking forward to the Domination henchman though, that guy pwnd. He was a 1337 interrupting machine.

I had a bad naming too. When I first created my necro, I 1) Was planning on going MM, but the game doesn't give you good MM skills early so I never really got around to it. 2) Choose the name, but got the quote wrong, so it doesn't even work. It was supposed to be a reference to "Cry Havoc and let loose the dogs of war", but I didn't remember it right, and now my Necro is named "The Dogs of Hell" :/

And what's up with warriors who don't fight? I grouped quite a bit over the weekend, and in quite a number of groups, there was at least one warrior who did nothing unless he was attacked. I've gotten used to monks who don't heal, but this is a new one.
Para
No offense to mesmer persons, but in tombs when I player Necro. I get things like Empathy and Spirit of failure on me 0o and otherwise Humility on Warriors 0o.. Or even drain warriors *sigh*

A low level E/Mo ran by himself to Piken (impressive!). Paid a runner from Piken to Yaks for 500g. Paid a runner from Yaks to Beacons for 2k. Paid a runner from Beacon to Drok's for 3k.
Bought Drok's Set for 7,500 (not including the items required for the set).
Paid a runner from Beacons to Lions Arch for 2k. Paid a runner from LA to Sanctum Cay for 5k. Paid a runner from Sanctum Cay to Amnoon Oasis for 1k. Paid a runner from Amnoon to Augury for 1k. Paid 3k for Desert Run (500 each town/outpost). Paid a runner in Elona for 1k. Paid a runner in Thirsty River for 5k. Paid a runner in Dunes for 3k.
Then the low level E/Mo is ready to ascend after paying 26.5k for run only to find out that his characters cannot beat his mirror. Now he is already level 12 and covered almost all the maps that he missed and he hasnt beat his mirror yet.
Hey, don't look at me. It wasn't me, promise!

That's why his other stop to pay for should have been a bit of quick power leveling outside of droks.

In Thunderhead Keep, Monks were tight so we basically took anything we could get. We took in a M/R level 19, our team was fine with it. When we started the mission, we realized he had a pet and a bow... And fought instead of healed.

OH NO wait .. he had no shield.. he had a FLAME ARTIFACT... then to top it all off he used the skill frenzy and tried to heal sig a few seconds later....
i asked if he was joking .. he got pissed and said he dosent play the game nonstop like some people... then quit... i added him to my friends list so i would never forget the single dumbest (yet funny) moment i had ever seen

Even nukers can make good temp tanks. I do it often when I suddenly get mobbed. You trust your monks and then you aoe. A gathered mob, regardless of who they are gathered on, is like christmas to a nuker.
It drives me nuts to see agro switch from one character to the other and then the new target spend all his time running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Take the hits for a short time (of course there are exceptions) and let your team kill the mob. A gathered mob is better than a scattered one.
