Thread: You might be addicted to your warden when...

When did you realize you were a warden addict? When was that special moment in your life when you realized that you needed to find yourself in the middle of overwhelming odds to get your thrills? At what moment in life did you realize that you like fighting 18 things at once just because you can? If a warden is your main then an addiction will soon set in. You might be addicted to your warden when....

For me i found out i was addicted to my warden when i couldnt log in for a week and had a dream that i WAS my warden! It was a rather cool dream to have shield and spear in hand and run up to a group of orcs just because i could

I have a couple pieces of pvc pipe with the ends wrapped in saran-wrap and a cardboard shield for downtime. Strangely enough when I go to Walmart to slay orcs they seem uninterested liked they'd seen it before.

Sometimes, when I'm listening to a boring conversation in real life, I start thinking...312324 334 312324 4 21324 23124 21214 334 312324 4 23234...

+ rep to you Sir you made my day OMG )))))))

When I'm playing an alt and can't figure out why battle prep, my masteries, and gambits are not firing off.

When I re-mapped the macro's & shortcuts of the applications I use at work to match my Warden's key mapping so I can practise rotations whilst manipulating , saving, cut and pasting etc at work.

Thinking my Minstrel sucks when he dies after aggroing 10 - 12 mobs +2 lvls in the landscape

Suggesting a Fancy Dress Party themed on Xena / 300 etc so I can play with my Spear and Shield and Not get strange looks from the neighbour's.

... when I look at your post and actually see gambits rather than numbers :P

"Where the heck are my muster skills? Oh great Turbine broke something else with their shoddy programming skills! Damn you Turbine! Can't you do anything right? Your product is so full of bugs that...oh wait I'm on my minnie."

When you have 7 alts, all wardens, traited and geared for different situations xD

when your toon is named High Warden Warden Warden, Warden and in kinship Warden

He he, I always find my left hand naturally sitting either on the WASD or 1-2-3-4 keys while I am at work. I tell ya, one of these days my programs at work will let me fire off some Gambits and make my life easier. He he.

As awesome as that would be to see... isn't your Warden's name Dolu?

lol yep, but i did see a warden once named High Warden Waden Warden, Warden one time, or something close to it, and thats when i knew that my appreciation for the class was but a tiny hill compared to that persons mountain

Ha ha, yup. I've seen someone on BW with a name like that before. I just use the "Friend to the Wardens" as my title.

I knew I was addicted to my warden when one day i logged onto my champ and got wierded out when i didnt see gambits or masteries on my skill bar

I knew I was addicted to my warden when I logged into my champ and logged out instead of dealing with more than one row of skills. Plus... attacking... felt... so... slow.

When I get fed up with a cluttered UI on alts. Good God, why have all your skills out on display like that? Indecent!

When I miss musters from alts very, very badly.

When I decide to run through and pull a bunch of mobs before fighting rather than pulling them in order, because I can, and because I love the rush of all those glorious AoE leeches and DoT's. Nothing quite like being surrounded by mobs, knowing they are all slowly dieing just to keep you kicking.

My son had his school sports carnival and had to throw javelin.
He told everyone he was channeling his Warden
He did well.

Today at lunch I went to play dodge ball in the gym, i noticed that no one was throwing anything at me so i got into a crouched position holding a dodge ball as i looked at someone, i threw the ball at him which (laughingly enough) stunned him for 5 seconds (lol) and gave me enough time to run up to him and hit him in the back with another dodge ball, i then proceded to parry and evade all the balls that were thrown at me while thinking to my self "lol i have capped parry/evade nubs". yes this actually happened

I got this crazy thing where I build gambits through sounds. I have 1 ear phone in my ear and watching TV and I'm able to build gambits with about 95% accuracy by listening to the sounds while watching TV.

fist sound = aaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrr
spear = tissh
shield = doomb

EoB = aaarr tish doomb arrr doomb

This is actually quite helpful in lag/latency as my muscle memory doesn't hit the next builder until it's heard the correct sound in the sequence.

Very much this!

I love my minstrel, but now that I've finally got the warden to level cap and into group play I find I'm having a hard time logging in the minstrel, because there's always something the warden still needs to do that's too much fun to miss .

I sound gambit all the time. But it's usually so I can change setting, inspect people's gear randomly, look around, eat dinner, etc. doomb tish doomb tish doomb swep
doomb tish doomb tish shiiiiu
doomb tish doomb fwap
doomb tish...

You might be addicted to your warden when you've commented on every thread on the warden forum. IE, if almost every thread has a green arrow next to it, you need help. I've been there as many here have been.



Is one the answer for the other?
