Things that just crack me up

POTD especially when you are close to a chest and some caster burst runs to click on it first. Is it just in case you don't click it right?
I just find it hilarious and always laugh.
Are there other things y'all have noticed as a regular occurence that just crack you up? Please share

Caster party being wiped by a silencing trap. Always get a kick out of it

Doesn't happen often but when someone dies while disconnecting then their internet catches up and they slide across the ground while dead for some reason.

Apkallu attacking by vomiting a sardine at you.

I just love it in POTD when everyone races for the chest and it's a bomb and 3/4 ppl die. The 4th person survives because he knows you don't need more than 1 person to open a chest.

I's more on a sad side, though, since they can purchase Echo Drops in Foundation/AH(MB)/etc.

I've learned not to trust anyone with the chests. Way too many times I've seen someone standing right on top of the chest, assumed they've got it handled, then checked the map two rooms later to see they left it closed.

Labyrinth of the Ancients > Phlegathon > Ancient Flare Wipes.

Labyrinth of the Ancients > Bone Dragon > Skeleton wipe from rush to kill dragon as quickly as possible

I love it when someone checks a chest in PotD and it's an item that you can't take because you're already at the limit for, but then everybody else keeps checking the same chest over and over after the message already displayed.

I just hope people will stop moving around while fighting, and eventually trigger a trap. It's not like you need to do positional attacks in PotD.

It's the only way I can remember how Brd was before WM. Every arrow needs to be shot from a different location to confuse da mobs!!

a specific moment that is a run of LoTA back in 2.4 to King Behemoth, u herd the MT's team telling him to hide in chat he then notices starts to move realises he wont make it & just turns back to boss right as he dies probably saying "well f*%k", personally any moments like that make me laugh as long as its got funny pretence & in the end it doesn't really matter victory wise... or the time I held all the Mobs in Diadeam as mass party's MT from 5 WAR's & 4 DRK's as my lowly PLD (10+ mobs both our healers were needed to keep me alive... herd it devolved into a shambled mess when I had to leave as no-one took my place as MT), the fact that I as the declared "Weekest" Tank was holding arrgo (even saw 3 of them go Tank stance & try to take a few) was the funny part "The mobs are mine u hear me MINE!!"

Comedy be it for good or bad always makes me laugh

Yeah, even when I'm not on caster, so I can at least despell the healer's silence.
That actually IS something that cracks me up usually - the utter disbelief with which most players I use them on go:
"Huh? I can still cast? How?! Why? This makes no sense! It must be a bug!" xD

This should probably be in the DF thread, but this seriously made me laugh my ass off. It's when someone says to ignore a mechanic, and then dies to it.

I'll put what actually happened in the DF thread.

I think I should start carrying Smelling Salts for those floors with the Sleep spam. You know who I refer to.

^^^^^^ THIS.

Omg it happened to me in 10S this week and my dead body apparently slid in zig zags across the arena because when I realized I was disconnecting I spammed my directional keys because I was so pissed off. I'm pretty sure everyone in my group peed.

people are so gung ho for those chests. I stopped opening them. Let them eat the explosions/mimic curses.

When healers flame the tank for not keeping aggro when he has full aggro and everyone died by an AOE they didn't dodge.

People not getting Thordan to 69% in current gear...or not even doing that with 20% echo.

Back in t7 pug long time back. someone continually fcked up the look away mechanic, despite it being explained several times. in the end someone snapped at them and said how are they failing it every single time all they have to do is not look at the boss

the reply...
"sorry I thought you meant irl"

Sounds like a troll there.

Everyone does this. It's maddening. Like I wasn't going to open it?

Even worse is when they trigger a trap....and now not just one person gets hit, but everyone who decided to huddle around the chest and see who could click it first.

At some point somebody is going to have to explain to me what the secret prize is for opening the most chests, I assume there is one because people race me for them all the time. I just back off now, no point in both of us taking an explosion in the face. I give bonus humour points if they open chests with 50% health and kill themselves doing it.

The thing that cracks me up the most though is wiping in Castrum Meridianum, it takes an epic level of fail to do it at this stage of the game so it's nice to see we can still manage it as a player base.

No, nothing beats wiping on floor 51, which may as well be floor 1, in the palace of the dead.

1. Zantetsuken.

2. The adamantoise flying animation.

3. That time I fought Odin and he was me of all people when the last time I had done the fate I was a healer.

What I find funny is that despite playing for 3 years or so I just learned in PotD that you can use potions like that on other people. Honestly assumed they were all self-use but then while watching the tank, tripped the trap and used it to remove it from myself, removes his. Was certainly an "Ah...." moment. As for the chests, that is why I always stay far away from them just in case, seen way to many instances of people racing to open (even mid fight) only to trip a lure trap or cause an explosion.

I remember a shining gem of a Castrum run, where the entire crew got into the spirit and we spent more than half the time dancing, Mandervilling, and silly-emoting through the run, and the fights. That was a great time.
