Granted, it is not as it was in the heyday, but they even just added 15th Anniversary weapons and elite skills two years ago. We are now just in the 17th Anniversary celebration, and the bonus items are obtainable. Thousands of active players still doing everything, so come on!

guild wars 1 is a peculiar game. i consider it being the biggest forgotten game - seems like almost no one does videos on it. yet, it is one of the biggest PC games of all times when it comes to sold copies. i am always willing to watch more amazing ones like this one. it brings back memories. thank you, dude.

Awesome video! 55hp monk was so wild. I remember when it was discovered or "leaked" in late 2005. Guild mates and internet forums went crazy. Many chinese accounts with Monk mains sprang up overnight as 55hp builds were used to farm ecto/obby shards in FoW / UW and griffons outside Augury Rock, creating 'gold farms' where real money is traded for in-game money. This caused ecto/obby prices to plummet and Anet took notice; many accounts were banned that had knowingly purchased from or had sold in-game currency and items. In response, a March 2, 2006 update forever changed mob behavior, causing them to flee repeated AoE damage and mitigate easy kills. This update also affected Augury Rock farming; replacing the griffons with scarab foes that remove enchantments, easily countering 55hp monk builds.

[@Nora-transspire]

[@JackoBanon1]

After all this time you made me remember becoming a 55hp monk and grind the Underworld to death with this build more than 15 years ago. I was really good in it and made a lot of platin besides all the other rare materials I found. The fun thing is the only reason I actually started with a Monk as my second character was that my guild members told me that I should choose this class if I ALWAYS want to find a group to play with. (My first one was Warrior/Monk of course, haha) And so I took it as a challenge and later even mastered it in PVP.

[@17KL17]

Very fun video! Reminds me of the times when I was reading guildwikis more obscure pages

That was an awesome video ! Being a GW1 enjoyer since Prophecies came out, i didn't knew 50% of all of those easter eggs and this is amasing to discover niche things and lore from a game that i care so much about. By the way, the fact that even to this day we still discover new easter eggs is fascinating, this game is so great even in the troll part.

[@TheLazySage7]

Thanks! and Right!? I love GW1 so much. I wished it had a few more campaigns / expansions, by GWEN they where really getting good at the design. I enjoy GW2 but its nothing like GW1, GW1 is just this special game.

1h scepter was the thing Imo, had to have it to range 1shot the things that came out the ground in UW so they didn't dispel you. I don't recall anyone using a sword in UW. Anyway, if u did it right, u didn't need extra energy.

[@TheShattenjager]

I remember I used to farm Totem Axes in The Falls, which 55 Monks bought all the time because it has +5 energy and an enchantment +20% it's a really nice item. Even nowadays every so often I go try to farm some.

Gaile is actually a friend of our family - we met her in person at the ANET Party after the very first GW2 PAX event, but we also interacted with her a lot in GW1. Mum was one of the leaders of the Amazon Basin Guild at the time.

[@TheLazySage7]

Oh Thats cool beans!

[@Munchkin.Of.Pern09]

I actually have two separate GW2 NPCs named after me - a weaponsmith in Divinity’s Reach and a Vigil Warmaster. I was, like, no more than 8-9 years old that first PAX, and all of the ANET staff thought I was adorable, apparently. Won my own ticket to the party at the Guild Wars Trivia contest, though no doubt the guy running it purposefully gave me the easy questions lol.

[@TheLazySage7]

@@Munchkin.Of.Pern09 That's amazingly cool! I can only hope one day to find a simple NPC, named "Lazy Sage" or Jing Silverstone sense that's the name I used sense GW1. Either way to be referenced in my favorite video game series, no matter in what small way. Would be so cool!

[@ThisNameIsBanned]

Amazing game with lots of detail. I wish they would never stopped making Guild Wars 1 content, i keep coming back over and over to play a bit even today.

[@1969Johnsilver]

I can add trivia. In the Shiverpeaks where you entered a cave with odd magical orbs you have to kill many Ice Imps. If your are one lucky son of a gun.. The imps can drop a Icy Fire Sword. So it is the same Model as the regular Fire Swords buy instead of a red orange burn color.. It is Ice (Blue) and deals, of course,.. Frost damage ))

[@flightyrisky1282]

Alot of nostalgia here. and i remember most if not everything here. i had the best time playing this game from 2005 to 2008ish. alot of hours and have never had a better timer playing a game even today.

[@TheLazySage7]

Yeah GW1 is a gem. I enjoy GW2 but it's definitely no sequel. GW1 is just made different.

Yeah I always loved how GW1 had these things just left around with little explanation. It's super cool!

[@lofiuwu]

Thank you for this video. I've played since 2005 (on and off since gw2 release though). This brought back a LOT of memories I had forgotten about, and I learned a ton as well. I am always impressed with the guild wars (1 and 2) community and I'm so glad this is the game I fell in love with as a teen. As depressingly lonely as it is at times thinking about the old guilds I was in and friends. I sure wish Discord was a thing back then.

[@lofiuwu]

Also, if you ever get time, you should do a deep dive on Bahltek. There's a huge mystery surrounding him, and I think it eventually leads to the human's home world. Anet staff has discussed him in wiki talk pages and he's also been referenced directly in guild wars 2, because one of his books is somewhere.

[@dragonmaster391]

/wings also works for the wings. across several years, the timer was broken. normally the emote can only be used every 30s, but at some point the emote switched to checking the timer for the zrank emote, meaning the wings could be spammed so many forgotten memories unlocked

Sorry to tell you, I am the guy who discovered Cynn's thong. At least, one of them. I remember telling everyone about it for so long... months, even after years, lots of people didn't know. I discovered it accidentally and here's how: I was standing at the north area of Ascalon near where Prince Rurik is - this is Pre-Searing. There's that battle that's going on outside which you can watch, but cannot interact with. Anyway, I was trying to see if I could somehow get closer via clipping and mouse POV. So, Cynn is standing there by the arch, and my POV clipped under her clothes. And that's how I discovered it. So, thank the Charr :) To the best of my knowledge, though, they have not removed it like you said in the video. I think it's still there.

[@luckyboy7294]

I'd like to add some: Amthur Arena: On Nightfall's map, near Ahdashim, there is this square-like shape on the map which many people theorized to be the treasure room of the Hidden City of Ahdashim, turns out it was Amthur Arena, a prototype arena that never made it to the final game (themed like Ahdashim) but was pulled out by accident in the Random Arena pool, therefore allowing access to the arena itself and exploration points Margonites being sterile: When you do the sidequest questline: The Oddbodies (favourite sidequests of the whole game), you'll see a friendly Margonite: "The Lost", when you talk to him, he has 2 lines of dialogue, saying that margonites don't have children and that slowly but surely, they are going extinct. That basically means that, according to the game, each margonite you kill brings them one step closer to extinction Hidden treasures: spread all over nightfall exploration areas are some treasures you can dig to get rewards, but some, like in Bahdok Cavern's are actually traps or Forum Highlands Koss is actually the son of a wealthy family and got disowned for joining the sunspears Mehluh Anchorage: It's believed to be that island you never get to see, located east of Chahbek and North of Mehtani Keys

[@Palundrium]

18:20 There was also a character model embedded in a bridge pillar somewhere in the Eye of the North Far Shiverpeaks. Can’t remember which map exactly and I think it was removed in an update, but ANet said it was a way of getting a sense of scale when designing a map.

[@dragonmaster391]

a "naked" man in the bridge in gunnars hold. there used to be videos of it on KZbin. I believe there were a few more cases, but all known ones got removed. they did claim it was just a kinda standard measurement thing they did and missed

@@TheLazySage7 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZSXo5akeJp4ea8 _A new chapter in Tyria’s story begins August 22 with the launch of Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure™, our newest expansion._ _The Wizard’s Tower and its creator are some of Tyria’s best-kept secrets. Dating back to the original Guild Wars®, it’s taken up residence on the Tyrian horizon since the beginning. All Tyria knew was that it was supposedly owned by a wizard named Isgarren-although he’s never been physically seen-and that a few individuals had tried to breach its walls (looking at you, Galrath). During the Guild Wars 2 era, it rested above the hamlet of Garenhoff until we plucked it out of the sky in the June 27 update. Aside from a couple of teasers over the years, we’ve shielded the truth about Isgarren and his mysterious tower… until now._ _The Wizard’s Tower provided the perfect canvas to tell a very different story-one that spans thousands of years. Focusing on Isgarren, the Wizard’s Tower, and the Astral Ward allowed us to dive into some of the deepest crevices of our lore-we’re talking ancient beings, whispers of long-ago wars, and buried secrets. We’ll be fighting an entirely new enemy faction only subtly teased in content in the past._ _It’s a story that lit a flame under the development team, too. Over the years, almost every team wanted to utilize the Wizard’s Tower-from raids and fractals to story. But no single idea landed where we wanted to take it. Giving the Wizard’s Tower an entire expansion felt like the best way to honor what is now a multigame mystery._ _With the dragon story bookmarked at Aurene’s temporary departure, the team was eager to let off some steam and work on something a little wild. The Wizard’s Tower was just as exciting to us as it has been for the community to speculate about all these years. When we managed to wiggle it in to just about every pitch we had for the fourth expansion, we knew we had our topic._

[@TheLazySage7]

How do you get to UW with out being ascended? The Scrolls?

[@SACRUM_VOTUM]

@@TheLazySage7 After leaving pre-searing. Pay someone to run your character all the way to temple of ages. Then ask/pay for a speed clear eternal forgemaster.

[@TheLazySage7]

@@SACRUM_VOTUM But I thought you couldn't go unless you where ascended or whe-no-su. At least it was long ago

[@ashley6595]

@@TheLazySage7 Think people either used factions with a glitch to get to that mission for ascension run that voila, but I also think you can do it easy as well on proph forgot which mission but i am sure that’s not hard way either it was about paying someone to do all the hard work. I know I have a lv 2 char was in Obby but was hacked by Lynie who just took anything of value & salvage value like all my obbys on 10 toons. I kinda quit not long after that.

[@TheGUARDIANOFFOR]

type /kneel near the god statue the avatar of that god will spawn and grant you a boon. Thats the main reason of the statues

[@TheLazySage7]

lore reasons. i know the mechanical reason. lol

[@ashley6595]

You missed one big story my man but nice iceberg the story you missed was a player called Divine Lynie whom hijacker’s players account via a loophole he found with customer support he actually attacked my account an stripped all players luckily my rare pets an ectos & armbraces was always kept on a alt account for such a thing happening where as there was a player whom had loads stolen easily $20,000 worth of stuff as he had a lot of them henchman tonics he even got gaile grays account an used her mod commands it went to court it’s a big story you missed maybe do some research an it’ll be some nice content for you think it’ll be nice for the people that have always loved guild wars 1 to know. Sadly I quit easily 6-8yrs ago sold my assets when was becoming a father but I still have my main account Mini Rizla which I have thought coming back an also playing GW2. Again nice vid just I was like expecting you to have that in there I was like it’s anytime now I am gonna see him say “Divine Lynie”. 😂

[@TheLazySage7]

Yeah I heard about the story after the fact. Must of happened after I stopped playing GW1. Unreal. shits crazy!

[@samanthascheinecker1524]

did you ever kneel at the statues?

[@TheLazySage7]

Yeah! Summons the gods representative for buffs/ teleports to elite areas. I know how they function in game, I'm more curious on the lore behind it. The mystery of why its there.

[@Gruboria]

Still the best game, love you all 90's, late 80's born peeps. We're all old now. Even older then Rurik when he got axed.

[@TheLazySage7]
