    You should do an edition about people who do anything but fighting during fights. A friend of mine discovered that Malacath Wrathful axe trophy or whatever it's called that makes you raise a giant axe, yell and engulf in flames and he's been using it yesterday in vWGT instead of potions...boss fight, hear his char yell, see him engulf in flames then die. Worth it XD We laughed so hard lol.

    Me, I'm much less fun, I just love changing skills midfight and typing. Typing midfight kills me a LOT lol

    Next up: failed boss mechanics?

    - 3 people attacking different chain guys in vet Fungal, letting the 4th man die;
    - people not moving away from each other when they have the blue ray during the same fight;
    - failing to close portals during planar inhibitor in WGT and dying to 10 million adds;
    - being run over by the planar inhibitor in his blue phase;
    - taking the adjudicator's lightning bolts in the face in WGT... multiple times;
    - letting the atros enrage in the flesh sculptor fight in ICP;
    - failing to go in portals/dropping in portals by accident during the lord warden fight in ICP;
    - failing to block/dodge valkyn's fireballs in CoA;
    - failing to clear the debuff from the bubble during the Rilis fight in vBC (extra points for dying to debuff after the fight is over);
    - dying to the explosion after you kill one of molag kena's adds;
    - getting thrown against the back wall by kena's jumps...

    The possibilities are endless and often hilarious :lol:

    -Dying to Praxin's pink circle of death.
    -Dying to Praxin's pink circle of death *after* Praxin is defeated. (bonus points)

    You can also die to first CoH boss ring of death(that's the one with 2 healers that everyone skips, yes) after he's dead, too. Moreover I think(at least it used to be so) after he dies the ring becomes invisible but stays there and does damage...

    Oh and absolute best is running onto the bridge to Valkyn in CoA before it fully assembles and falling down into lava. You get bonus points for doing than on a no death/speed run, a friend of mine did that :tongue:
    Another friend of mine jumped off the waterfall in CoA and managed to die. He wanted no death so we were like "restart?" he was like "nah, gonna die more, let's just practice". It was of course the only death we had that run...

    There's also always doing normal mode instead of hard and only realizing this after boss is dead...

    Excellent stuff! Putting the FUN back into gaming.

    My wife has just discovered the game. It's the first time she has played anything other than candy crush or patience so you can imagine there is a HUGE learning curve, just watching her try to move around can be painful at times. She has just reached level 9, my son and I (v8 and v10) now find ourselves queuing for time on the game. I'm wondering how long to leave it before putting together another gaming pc and setting her up with her own esol account.

    Look forward to seeing future vids.

    Remember red = dead and a dead dd deals no dps.

    My recommendation would be sooner than later. Do it before she is invested too much in a character on your account! You can always justify it by building a new gaming PC for yourself and giving her your current one if you think there's a chance that she may not stick with it. :)

    Plus with the added bonus of being able to play with you makes all the difference in the world in my opinion. My wife and I decided years ago if we were going to invest time in a hobby like this, it would be something we can do together.

    I think it is great for couples to play the game together.

    Anyways, I love these videos.

    And as I didn't know that Episode 4 was out, one belated comment. Rapids is a curse sometimes.

    PVPer 1: We have got to get to Ash from Rayles. Let's go. *approaches Chorral*
    PVPer 2: *casts rapids*
    PVPer 1 and 3: Lava *both die*

    Seconded. I'm the wife is a husband/wife duo. He's been playing online games since Ultima, but ESO is my first MMO. It's been challenging for me to learn the mechanics well enough to play with others. I've mainly played the single player ES games up to this point, so ESO was perfect for us.

    Though, as a wife that usually gets the computer hand me down business, I would suggest you build HER a computer instead of handing yours down. We wives like new computers, too. :wink:

    Already promised the current gaming rig to my 14yo son (also ESOL fan), so just ordered an i7 gaming laptop for her and set her up with her own account yesterday that my son is now grinding up to roughly where she is.
