You could always check out Champions Online. I haven't played since it went f2p since they made all my characters unplayable unless you sub (f2p players can only have certain templates, not mix and match like sub characters). I seem to remember that it had an event system. It also has a design your nemesis feature where they and their henchmen can randomly pop up and attack you. Oh and it was made by the original group that did CoH.

This is your chance to roll out your Ranger and pop your mini-pets as this will be an All Ranger party*. Any build is fine and I'd like to get a variety of pets just to see how ridiculous we can look.
We'll meet up in SBI Borderlands Citadel Waypoint around 7:30pm EST (4:30pm PST). We'll start out in the Boderlands and maybe map hop depending on the situation of the match.
If you would like to come then just bring your ass to the event. No sign ups needed.
*I do welcome some guardians for stability and mesmers for veil/timewarp just to make this crazy idea work a little better.

The golems are vulerable to all forms of CC. Bring a hammer.

If I remember tonight I'll jump on with my Ranger and join the WvWvW fun.
using his guardian, right? The balls can be reflected, too.

I felt so squishy the couple of tries I gave it I didn't even think to give that a shot. Maybe I'll take another go later.
I had my Warrior. If Zeroth had been there with his Guardian for that one too, it never would have been a problem at all.
Ahhh, right. Well I'll draw from my warrior expertise then and give the following advice:

Just make a warrior already!
He did, it's just sitting at lv 1 being useless.
Not that I'm too fond of my own warrior either.
I read this and thought "whoah, maybe I should start solo'ing stuff for funsies and the challenge!" So I look up a mesmer solo video I find on reddit and hit play...
Nope. Not for me. I'm too impatient.
Bloodseeker will be seeking your blood shortly
At least the "no helm" creation option is pretty amazing.
Honestly I'm betting I feel about warriors the way I hear people talk about thieves.
I had the same thought, and based on the fun I've had the past week soloing the Living World stuff I might actually get into this. Though I'm sure I'll be better at it on my thief than my Mes or Ele. I'm not sure if I want any videos though, might just try my luck

It was this one, 24 minutes sped up to 12 minutes:

To be fair, it is a lvl 48 Mossman.

Healing Shout Support Warrior is best Warrior!
Even though mine is currently in his Zerk gear. Plan to change that back soon.

I remember joining a zerk Warrior farm of CoF back in the day with my Warrior. Someone stops in the middle of it:
"Did...did your shout just heal me?"
"Whaaaaa you crazy. I'm all zerk all the time. Gooooo damage!"
Hahaha oh wow, I'll never be getting into that level of challenge I'm sure.
I will quote that for truth. They are amazingly beneficial.
Unless they changed something, you can los the Asura deathballs at the columns in the back. So kite and kill the golems+asura at the columns.
Did you ever manage to solo Arah P2?
Nah, I still got stuck on Lupi. A couple of hours of practice and it should be no problem but don't really have an interest anymore.
Could be the ones that specifically made a thief because they're strong and then try to pick on people that're used to fighting thieves already since there're some players that've been thieves since day one or even the open beta sessions. A lot of the angry kids are thief players for some reason or another. I have my share of experiences and some screenshots of people to laugh at.
From my experience, the ones that run off and don't care are the ones that've been playing long enough for it to be something like "another day another kill." That or they're the folks who have lost faith in humanity a long time ago.

Good luck, Traveling Zoo!! Wish I was there with my warrior so I could help you so you would actually be able to kill someone.
My computer has been playing up again and has been running another Disk Check for over 4 hours so I think the HDD is reaaaaaally screwed. I can't really afford to replace it but I guess I'm going to have to at some point. Don't miss me too much while I'm not on
Good luck and have fun with the WvW event btw!

Just read about the safe spot police lol.... instead of actually fixing every area they deem a safe spot they gonna police players.
What's that?
One immediate example I can think of that kind of works is that one spot everyone stacks on for golem in Mount Maelstrom. Most attacks don't hit where people're stacked and you'll occasionally get knocked off but for the most part you won't get wrecked by the lightning fields.
I suppose instead of making those boxes/crates so you can't stand on them, you'll just get told off and maybe a mark on your account or something.

I follow the game pretty closely and even I can't recall exactly what the changes were. To the people who don't read the subreddit every day, it's still news.
You could save money if you don't buy it in the first place, that way you don't have to ask for a refund later.

I feel like "safe spots" are one of the last things in the game that they need to worry about reprimanding people for using. Patch the spots out as they come up, and leave people be in the meantime.
In other news, after the success of this morning's level 1 Fractal run, Zeroth was nice enough to entertain the idea of a level 19 Fractal duet. We completed a full run of Aquatic Ruins, Urban Battlegrounds, Cliffside, and Jade Maw together. So I want to thank him again for being such a great teammate in some very intense battles.

It does seem like the ones that flat out murder me never stick around for long.

I don't think I could ever fathom soloing a dungeon
Haha. Didn't someone jokingly suggest something along those lines? It seems a bit pointless considering how easy Mystic Salvage kits are to come by. Copper-Fed is a pretty good convenience item considering I get the salvage achievement a few times a day. I might buy a BL kit while on offer just in-case I run out.
Between the last Black Lion Key sale and getting them as Daily rewards every so often, I have something like 15 of 'em just sitting around, not counting ones I keep on my 80s. I really only use them for Exotics, I have Mystic Salvage kits for rares (and honestly, I've been selling my rares straight up lately since I'd rather have gold than another stack of ectos).
Love my Copper-fed salvage though, the convenience of that on my main has been great.
