Yeah I always have the same idea! 4 hours of gameplay is nothing but demoralizing to me :(

I wanna pop in because I want to try playing with "fields":
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Combo

So, for example, an engineer can drop a Fire Bomb, creating a Fire Field.  He can then drop a Big Ol' Bomb in it to create a blast effect within the field that results in all friendlies in the area getting Might.


Or a Ranger can set a Frost Trap, which creates an Ice Field, and then a guardian can do a Whirling Wrath while standing in it add a Chill effect to all of his bolts.

These combos aren't really given much of a highlight that I could see in the game, so I never think to mess with them much.  I knew I could drop a fire wall and then shoot through it to add burning attacks to my bullets but there's a lot of fields and things you can do with them and some aren't very obvious.  I want to take a closer look at the fields I can create and see what effects I can maybe get some real use out of.
Crush your enemies; see them driven before you; hear the lamentations of their women.
