User:The Lone Warrior/Hero

The Lone Warrior is one of the Heroes (customizable party NPCs) available in Guild Wars. An interesting man, Lone is quite a character.

Lore
Legendary Hero
 * "And you thought I couldn't do it..."

Origin: Unkown Age: Indeterminable Profession: Warrior


 * "And he awoke, somehow surviving the fires, a new man. No longer was he the spiritual Dervish he had grown to be, but a lone warrior bent on nothing but revenge and destruction. Soon, he traveled across mountains to find a land charred beyond repair. Once there, he joined the Vanguard, but refused to swear allegiance to the King, nor the Prince."
 * "Having fulfilled his role in the Flameseeker Prophecies, vanquished the Deceiver, and struck down a god, he spoke with the great dragon and discovered that those from his past still lived. And thus he set out to find them."
 * ''"Having saved many lives, and rediscovered those he loved, he had nothing left to accomplish in his life. As such, he set out to roam Tyria, helping those in need as he finds them."

~Excerpts from Scriptures of The Lownage''

Recruitment
He can be randomly found in any Mission or Explorable Area. Killing a total of 50 enemies while he is in your radar will unlock him. The counter does not seem to resent each time you see him.

Location

 * He has been spoted anywhere and everywhere on each continent.
 * He can usually be found standing off to the side in End Game areas.

Armor
The Lone Warrior starts with Warrior Primeval armor, which includes a Radiant Cuirass of Clarity, Radiant Leggings of Vigor, Stonefist Gauntlets of Minor Tactics, and Survivor Boots of Minor Strength, all labeled as Lone's Primeval Armor. Unlike most heroes, his headgear is not hidden. His armor has +20 armor vs physical damage and an armor rating of 80. His Helmet is always a Dreadnoughts Helm. However, by clicking on it, you may switch it between a +1 strength and a +4 of each attribute. Equipping weapons is also different for this Hero. By clicking on his weapon of offhand, you may equip him with any of the Weapons and Shields listed on THIS PAGE. Beyond those, he may be equipped with a max, requirement 9 offhand, with a "Master of my Domain" inscription, and a Focus Core of Fortitude for the attribute selected.

The appearance of his armor cannot be upgraded like most Heroes.

He CAN use any PvE skills unlocked on your character. The game will base them off of your titles.

Dialogue
If found in explorable area:
 * "Prove your worth, or lack thereof, and I shall join you."

If found in Mission:
 * "I was also called here to help. I guess I might help you."

In end game areas:
 * "You did well, its an honor to know I fought by your side."

Idle Quotes

 * "Humans are quite fickle, sometimes I wish I wasn't one of them."
 * "Oh, how I long for those from my past..."
 * "Quiet is alright, but I hate this silence!"
 * "When we get to the next town, I'm taking a leak."
 * "Are you still alive?"
 * "Death to evil!" This quote will be followed by him running in a random direction. This is NOT a bug, but an attempt to make him aggro onto you. Apparently, he doesn't like AFKers.
 * "Does this skirt make my butt look big? HA! I got your attention. Now lets go kill something."
 * "I'm an excelent cook, maybe I should make you some cookies."
 * "I think my name makes a fine battle cry. "Koss!" What do you think?"
 * "I'm wielding a [he will actually insert whatever he is wielding]! Hows about you?"
 * "I remember this place... I liked it for some reason."

Sometimes he will announce "We're in hard mode!" while others he says "Why AREN'T we in hard mode?"

Battle Quotes

 * "I like it when the red water comes out... Bleed for me!"
 * "Fool! You know not who you face!"
 * "Well, you actually hit me, to bad it didn't hurt!!"
 * "Have no fear! The Lownage is here!"
 * "Here I stand! Get a good glimpse, for next time I see you, you WONT see me!."
 * "This power... I feel like... like... KILLING!!!"
 * "I will snap you like a twig!"
 * "I hope you're ready to get tea bagged!"
 * "My weapon, it thirsts for blood..."
 * "Remember my name when you see the gods! Tell them who owned you!"
 * "This move always impresses the noobs!"
 * "You can always rely on my strength, both inner and outer"
 * "You should pay attention. You might learn something! Then again, so might I..."
 * "No regrets, no remorse. I fought for revenge, now... I fight to destroy all things evil!!!" NOTE: This quote will be followed by an environmental effect called "Frenzy of The Lownage" to appear on him, and him only, for about 10 seconds. It will cause a 100% attack speed buff, a 50% movement speed buff, an additional 10 life steal per attack, an additional 25% armor penetration, a 50% damage reduction, a 100% chance to crit while attacking, attacks interrupt foes using skills, +20 health regeneration, +20 energy regeneration, a 50% casting time reduction of all skills, and a 50% recharging time reduction of all skills. Also, one time use skills will be recharged, and while he has this effect on him, they recharge automatically when used. This quote is quite rare, and seems to be triggered by certain conditions to be met that are only met in dire situations.
 * "I can't die, I ain't done havin fun yet!" NOTE: this quote tends to appear when he is at approximately 5% health remaining. It will give him an environmental effect called "Near Death Experience" which will give +100 health regeneration, 50% damage reduction, and 25% increased attack speed.
