About me

I've been playing Guild Wars 2 since launch and the original Guild Wars since 2005. I primarily play PvE though I dabble a bit in PvP and WvW sometimes. Major hoarder. Proud to main ranger since 2005. Some of my affiliations include:

• Officer of Vintage Gaming [VG] on Jade Quarry.
• Commander in Attuned [Att]. We used to regularly complete Triple Trouble Wurm and do world boss speed clears.
• Participant and theorycrafter in Project Probalt. We decapped Cobalt with 14 players, Crimson with 14 players, and Amber with 25 players. We phased Tequatl in 47 seconds with 15 players, and we collaborated with Attuned to tie the then-world record kill time with 47 players.
• Former organizer and webmaster of the Jade Quarry Tequatl Alliance.

Past projects
