    Nothing super major here than second-guessing on whether I should purchase something in the CashShop ... Deciding to purchase some items, only to have it go on sale for half price the next day. Sometimes, I get too anxious.

    i had the same thing!
    i was trying to use spirit to lvl my genie but i used xp instead
    i had 99.9% and was going to grind the last bit on foxwings
    i sat there adding xp when i thought i was adding sp
    went to grind on foxwings and i killed 10 and wonder why i didnt lvl yet look at xp bar and saw 1.3% b:cry

    zhenning FTW b:victory

    MagicZ what a fail lol
    i sold my panda for 40mil and a zuriels to my friend
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    When I did my fb70, I told the whole squad 1000 times I wanted all the molds. They agreed on it, so we begin. At the final 2 bosses, our BM couldnt tank, we needed a barb. So he left, barb came in. Of course I am all nervous because that bosses were so scarey b:shocked and I didnt told the barb about the molds. And yes, the 10 million Tauran Chiefwhatever cape dropped, of course the barb got it by random distribution, and he didn't gave it back to me as I hadnt told him I wanted all molds.

And only when this ordeal is finally overcome, will my soul at last be allowed to leave my physical body. Then let us test it. Whether I..no. Whether my spirit can become a lance... capable of piercing through every one of you. We'll see if I am truly such a weak human being!

    The other day I wanted to sell my Shade Skymanta.
    After saying it in WC, I got two responses with pretty low offers.
    So I thought I'd try to have a mini auction with the two.
    Turns out they knew each other, and one was just trying to help his friend get the fly mount.
    I was so busted. b:surrender

    Ended up selling to her for 500k xD

    Just when the new Sunshine fashion was released I saw someone selling a black one for 200K in Catshop. I bought it right away!

    Well, it was 2 mil, not 200K, and when i turned my gamma up I noticed it was grey and not black.


    Another time I was doing WQ and one of those darn flying mobs above Sanctuary followed me all the way to Thousand Streams. Of course I didn't notice that until much later since I was AFK the whole time. He ticked over half my Gold HP Charm.

    LOL! This happened to me today... I was afk flying from Sanc, picked up one of the little guys apparently, and he ate the rest of my charm and killed me! Elite or not, they shouldn't follow you that far... lol

    Sad thing is, once I picked one up when I wasn't afk, so I played with the little guy and wanted to see how far he'd follow. He went with me to Merchant Chin by 1k Streams, and back to the WQ NPC in Arch. I descended too fast and he finally left me at Arch. I'm pretty sure he would have followed me until I killed him had I not broken aggro. If I had thought about that this time, I would have waited 'til I was clear of the little buggers before I went AFK. lol At least there wasn't too much left on my charm... ^^

    Sold my fb19 tabs to NPC. When I started to play I only wanted to solo and no interaction with other players. Quest needs squad? Don't want that kind of quest. And sold for 100 coins. Only at lvl25 understood what I have done.

    ah ok some classy selling goin on out there..
    BUT
    C'mon "epic fail" how gamers say this.. and just "fail" on its own, its real ****. "Fail" used in the context you guys put it in, its begging for an **** kicking. not dissing you wiz, but the word.

    Anyway one thing i did to really mess up was infuse 60% of my own exp into my genie when i was 10% from leveling.. i thought i was using Sp b:shocked
    this wasnt long ago :s so lost alot of hours grinding

    I was lvl 18 when i fell into the river near the firecrag grotto. I wasnt paying attention and got out on the wrong side of the river into a lvl 90 zone where i was promptly killed and teleported not to timberfield but to avalanche village :/ It took me two weeks of mob dodging all the way to thousand streams to teleport to archosaur (not having the brains to maybe call a gm and had no idea of cash shop teleports and no one was nice enough to escort me T_T)
    I wanna reach lvl 90 if only to go beat the snot out of them <<

    also

    i used to buy ragged fur and lime stone thinking it was worth something D:

    Selling about 10 copper dragon orders for 25k total instead of 25k each...i was a noob and the AH confused me.

    Newest fail:

    One of my friends wanted a kowlin pet egg so yesterday i camped a spot and there was a veno there with like -21% channeling gear. I was like **** that but i tried anyway. So it spawned and i used the tame skill at like 50% and it said failed...so i was like qq. Then today i went back with the friend who wanted it and i checked my invo because i was bored and i see 6 eggs in there, and i only had 5 snow hare eggs and the last one is the kowlin, but we tried to catch it again for me but failed. Anyway pets are fun...but i swore it said failed...idk..
    not really an epic fail, but it did make me feel pretty dumb

    I have a new one..

    Trying to explain to Lyndura how the "damage system" worked.
    Explaining that your total damage output had everything to do with your final damage on the target.. And that if someone had lower damage on the stats, it would be lower than someone with higher damage. :S

    I was helping a LVL 20 do an FB 19, and died. And I came back, and again.
    Took me twice to realize my heiro was out. D=

    OH, and at lvl 30, after finally getting my flying mount, I remember being all hyped up and some noob ran up to me saying OMG OMG WHERE IS TIMBERFIELD? So I said I'd get him there, being all totally proud about my new sword. "I'll fly you there!!" ....I'm a chick, so I click embrace and then spend 10 minutes apologizing and leading him there by foot.

    I got my tab at level 19 and discovered the quest was too hard to do at that level (my group was easily wiped out by the boss) so I sold my tab to an NPC for 100 coins too. I thought I would be able to get another tab from the NPC that gave me the first one when I was ready to do the quest, but it turns out that is not the way that it works. It was no big deal really since you get the weapon from a different quest. The tab just gives you an extra quest when you use it on the pillar inside the dungeon. I just went on someone else's FB run when I was level 25 and was able to finish the quest and get my FB19 weapon. I got blood too since it was not my tab that was used.

    This was back in September when the game first opened and this whole "tabber keeps drops" thing was never used. You were glad to get any help you could get and whoever was lucky enough to get the drops got to keep them. With that in mind, selling my FB19 tab was not a fail at all since the only difference between using your tab and using someone else's is that you get blood if you use someone else's. Being the tabber actually puts you at a disadvantage (unless you are giving the tabber all the drops) since the tabber is the only one that gets no blood.

    Did you ever finish the actual FB19 quest (not the little 10 hour quest that needs a tab to activate but the real quest that was given to you in town)? That is all you need to do to get your FB19 weapon so if you did that I would not say you failed at all. I still have my tabs from about half my FB's since I figured if I was going to only do an FB once I at least wanted to get some blood out of it in addition to completing the quest so I just went in on other people's. Now that people are following the "tabber keeps drops" philosophy of play I am so high in level for those FB's I still have tabs for that all the drops would be coins anyway.

    I finished the quest later without any problems, but that weapon was useless for me as I got a better one already, so I just get rid of it. When I started to play, then FB advertisments wasn't popular yet and at that time I didn't know that FB is the same Call of Duty.
    As for blood - I haven't met a person who might need it for a long time. I simply drop it out at boss or sell to NPC as well. I run FBs for fun, not for drops, exp, spirit or rep :)

    Besides - selling your fb19 tab is fail. It is your first FB, first real group killing party and you simply get rid of it.
