Guild Wars 2

I have a serious issue with this boss. It is possible, and certainly can feel rewarding if you finish it (sometimes) but one of it’s skills is completely unreasonable.

The insta meteor shower, with no visual queue needs to be changed. It should do something, like raise it’s hand or something to let player’s know what to expect. The shower does a good amount, and it isn’t avoidable by any normal means (aegis then dodge the only one atm). Give his meteor shower a visual queue like the rest of his skills.

The rest of the fight is pretty simple as long as you’re watching it. The insta aoe is too strong imo. Even increase the damage of it if you must, but it should be visible b4 hand.

It is, if you’re paying attention you’ll notice the red ring, and it’s quite easy to dodge out of it once you see it. This is probably the least challenging mechanic of the shaman.

The red ring and the damage appear simultaneously, it isn’t avoidable. Also it can use it whenever including when it is moving (or flying) about. It’s like a switch it just turns off and on with no way to avoid aside from aegis. I have no issue leaving the circle, it’s predicting where it will be placed. 3-4k slips through but that can be the difference between being downed or kiting a bit longer. Arrow is incredibly easy to avoid, his melee range AoE is also obvious. His insta aoe has nothing hinting it’s about to appear.
