Did you know that ... if you have account older than 2 year and you empty storage and delete all characters you have special bonus waiting for you when you create character: 1mil in storage and material storage filled with 250 of each material.

Anet made it to reward people who make comeback so that they can afford stuff.

Had friend try it but he messed up and left some materials in mat storage so he got nothing :-/

There was a time when 'the company' had me believe that the oo7's were on my end. Biggest UL ever, albeit not from ingame players, it's still a myth/UL.

People actually believe that Guild Wars has a better community than games such as World of Warcraft which have a monthly fee.

Those people need a lesson in Darwinism.

Can't beleive noone has mentioned this one:
They removed the Anti-Farm Code with loot scaling.
After running around 10 UW runs this week, people playing on alts always had more ecto drops than people playing their mains.

It doesn't randomly change with updates. Although I guess you could consider that a rumor which might become an urban legend.

So, what you said was false. Sorry. That's the way the cookie crumbles.

This thread is very lame. It makes me sad.

Every time you enter a area any unopened chest the last time remains in it's spot, so eventually all the chests will end up on other side of the map and to reset you have to go open them too.

Not sure if it's true, but I've seen back when I was wurm farming alot in desolation that after about 4-5 runs there would be 1-0 chests spawning on the remains side of the map, and untill I started on the other side of the map where the mission is there would be very few chests spawning. *Usually 1-4 chests on a run, down to 1-0 chests*
No, that is not true.

But ANET told us they removed it. Can't blame the players on this one.

That's pretty damn funny, but if I were your buddy I would have slapped you. Then again, they were stupid enough to fall for it.

Yeah, that makes it more a lie than an UL.

LoL. Sure the anti-farm code is gone.

It just so happens that by magic there are less and less mobs everytime I zone into Snake Dance to cap one of the Griffons.

Not really a UL but more a funny.

Anyway, I was playing TA with a friend of mine, he on his ranger and me on my ele. We found a monk and decided that the last spot should be filled up by a warrior. As we found the warrior, we asked him to ping his build so we could see it. He didn't know how to and only after telling him to ctrl+click his skill bar did he understand. He had skills from Axe mastery, hammer mastery AND swordsmanship in his bar, and his elite was "Charge!" with only 3 points in tactics.

Needless to say, I kicked him. He then walked up to me and asked in local what happened, so I told him what I did. He then asked why I kicked him and I said: "Well, what idiot wammo has skills from all three warrior weapon lines and Charge as an elite with only 3 points in tactics?". He didn't really get my point but everyone else in that district laughed their asses off.

What about the couple dozen UL about how to get up onto the inaccessible areas in Kamadan to get the unopened wintersday gifts that rained down last year. Employees' toons would get into the area and collect the gifts "to distribute to the region that missed the event" (which is probably also another UL).

This is more of a newb thing or inexperienced thing, but you can have an UNided sup vigor.

I got chewed out once in droks forge for trying to sell one. The person started calling me a scammer and just getting all on my case. Finally I explained the whole process and she said sorry and bought it XD.
But there are still people who think its a scam of some sort.


Also I to fell for the you can get into UW without favor via Lonar's Pass Q_Q So we tried it one day and got nowhere... and then America took halls as we stood there XD

I very politely refrained from pointing out that the mobs we were fighting were mesmers.
Some people have such a poor understanding of what a Mesmer is for that this one doesn't surprise me as much as it should.

walk around the fountain in LA exactly 50 times, then go to the merchant and all prices will be down 50%

If you go little less or more than 50, it won't work.

Travell all places in Tyria in alphabetical order, then do the last mission and undead rurik will appear as henchie.
