Guild Wars 2

So 100+ tries and I’m getting close guys – had her down to 25% on a couple occasions.

Any good tips for phase two?? Is there anything concrete on that phase or is there some RNG that just can’t be avoided? (like orb pulls – that doomed me one time qq).

I’m running Mesmer btw.

In phase 2 the Shadowfall AoE always covers up the arena like an hourglass. However, it will never strike the same place twice (so the safe spot is where the AoE just hit and the danger spot is where the AoE just missed). So just kite the boss in a small to medium size circle (easier to reach a safe spot the smaller the circle, but harder to kite the bombs). The orbs are random but take ~5 seconds to pull you, so just kill them within that time period (or bring stability so that window increases).

Stay near the center of the dome. This makes walking to the safe area so much easier.
Try to kite her as much as possible with simply just auto attacking and using your illusion.

Orb pulls aren’t random, they happen at set times during the boss fight. And there’s only so many spawns locations.
If you manage to play via a pattern, you should have them spawn at exactly the same situation every time where you can easily take it out.

^Does anyone have a vid showing the above strategy?? And like do you melee her down with this method – if so what about the one-shot clones??

There’s plenty of them on youtube

And no, you don’t melee you should just stick to your GS, perhaps switch to sword when you need to evade.

Oh and what Mesmer elite is recommended? I don’t see anything that really looks too appealing tbh.

Yeah you don’t really need it, perhaps use some racial ones to make it a tad bit easier but mesmer’s elite skills are mostly built around team compositions.

You forgot about moa!

YEEESSSS!! Finally did it!! (only 140+ tickets or so lol!)

And forget what I said about bad orb-pulls. An orb pull there actually SAVED me lol – pulled me right out of trouble

And yes I did use moa!
