Talk:Undead Prince Rurik
From Guild Wars Wiki
[edit] Easter Egg?
Just remembered...
In the cut-scene, you will always kill rurik with one hit of the weapon you wield, right?
Well, my friends and me tried out what happens if you enter the cut-scene without any weapon.
Believe it or not, but there seems to be a special character animation if you don't have one:
Your character will give rurik the rest with a punch. (at least it looked like that - and it sounded like broken bones...male Monks and Necros will strike out with their hand, female dervishes do the punch like one of their scythe attacks; when they turn around.) —Zerpha

- Yeah it known, Ascalon Refugee's attack the same way, adn back in the old days you could also attack without a weapon ~ SCobra

- yeah, i noticed that NPCs may do so, and already wondered why oneself cannot do so. Too bad this doesn't work these days anymore...no idea why this became removed. —Zerpha

- Used to be a bug (IIRC it involved removing a piece of armor, doing an emote, and then stopping the emote by moving and simultaneously re-equipping the armor piece, I guess because when the emote ends the game tries to redisplay your weapon, but gets sidetracked by you equipping your armor, and does that, forgetting about the weapon) that let you attack without a weapon. Looked so awesome! And yeah, I tried the "kill Rurik without a weapon" trick once too. Male rangers spin around for their maneuver. :P

You have the same during the cinematic of Zen Daijun (when you talk to Master Togo in Haiju Lagoon). I didn't equip a weapon, and my Assassin attacked the Afflicted thing with his fist. Strangely, the guy I attacked with my fist died faster than the one Togo attacked with his staff :D

I do not understand why this is called a spoiler alert thingy whatever. Could someone please tell me why. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:220.245.180.130 (talk).
- It's because not everyone knows the whole of the Prophecies storyline, like that you have to face an undead Rurik. 75.146.48.190 22:27, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
- Exactly. Between The Frost Gate and Hell's Precipice (a pretty huge chunk of the game) you're meant to believe Rurik died and that was the end of it. Some people may not want the storyline given away before they find it in game, hence the warning.
Although personally I'd have thought the articles title gives away enough that the rest should be fairly obvious, but there's not a lot that can be done about that. 86.133.85.17 11:08, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
I'm just going to throw this out there: I LOVED the fact that I got to kill this over-zealous aggro-loving pain in my ass. Kirenne Starfire [Kw] 23:25, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
