Guild Wars 2

Anet…is it so ifficult to see that adnul is broken? it continuosly spam signature. You cannot fake once the game start…it takes so little damage….what should we do??…stay 5 hours for stupid 10 achievement points?…

TL;DR: no, it’s just no fun. I’m sure it feels great if you are lucky enough to win.

I’ve loved this month’s content, except for Adnul. Although I have tried many many times, thinking I’d get lucky, it’s been totally frustrating. Some claim the minigame is working as designed, but the only way I could make sense of that would be to assume that the developer wanted people to hate GW2.

Answer – No

He’s not broken. Just hard. Players with skill and knowledge of the game’s mechanics have won.

I would hardly call it “skill” at this point. The fact that he can constantly spam his special skill is annoying, I’ve come close to beating him, I’ve even “tied” with him, but no matter what, he’s just spams that skill way to much.

The fact that most of the people that I know who beat him had to use a regen booster is pretty telling of how hard he is. I think he shouldn’t be easy, but at this point he’s a little overtuned.

If I flip a coin and get heads 10 times in a row, I have skill at coin flipping in the same way I have skill at beating Adnul.

Forced to use regen booster. Yes, FORCED!

Answer – No

He’s not broken. Just hard. Players with skill and knowledge of the game’s buffs and consumables like warrior banners, rejuv boosters and Box o’ Fun have won.

There, fixed that for ya!

PS: Box won it for me. I tried, oh how I tried. Beat all the others including Poyaqui on the 1st or 2nd attempt. This guy was unbeatable. Has all the bugs others have pointed out in other threads and if he was beaten without cheats it was RNG luck, not skill.

You know… I have beaten Adnul on my 3rd try. No banners, tonics, box of fun, anything. I have beaten him.

I saw crying on the forum that he is impossible, and all it takes is luck.

OK. I went back to Hoelbrak in a few days and I beat him again, this time around on my 2nd try.

Let me be the first who outright says:

L2P

There is some luck of the draw included in him I think. Intended or not, I dunno. I managed to beat him my first time using the usual method that a lot of people post and is on Dulfy (No silly food buffs/boosters here – didn’t even know about it till after I finished him).

It was also the game I got the achievement for winning by one drink. I was pretty much dead, but low health belch is op.

I tried him again after that though, after I saw so many people complaining about him (this was before the initial “fix”) and I lost the first time, using the same exact method as when I beat him. /shrug

There is no L2P with him sometimes, he can straight up kill you no matter what you do if he decides to do certain combos. Try dealing with his skill 4 times in a row with only 1 round breathing room in between each CD. I have beaten him and there are things that will help you increase your chances beating him but he can still just killer combo you to death if he feels like doing it.

The irony I just got the achievement for punishing bluffers 10 times with him with getting the last punish I need off him lol. I planned to go do the the asura since she spams bluff but I was waiting in Hoelbrak for something so decide to try him out again and got it when attempting him the first time lol.
