Guild Wars 2

As it stands right now with Jormag’s Lieutenant, The Shatter, and the “undead one” (forgot the name) in Sparkfly Den… the dragons are just way too easy to kill. There should be dead bodies littering all over the place, but really… only a few people die at most and it’s almost laughably easy to kill these monstrous beasts. I did The Shatterer a few days ago and no one even went into the down state.

Agreed, and I think the scaling could use some work. One thing I don’t like is that people will ignore the turrets on Sunqatl or the ice pillars on the Claw and just bash against the dragon, and it works. It shouldn’t. Encourage players to play it smart.

Most people do not find it fun to die repeatedly. So unless you are volunteering yourself to be dead for 90% of a fight every single dragon fight… then suggets minor tweaks.

Jormag’s Lieutenant is not an easy fight if you are melee focused. Even ranged will get ripped up unless you play like a wuss and hide in a pack of players or hang far back so the champs don’t target you.

Teakettle (the undead one’s name always fails me) is one that should be tweaked. Honestly I would increase the radius that the scuicider minions he drops release their poison. Heck make the poison fromt hem like the grenth alter…it is perminant unless you leave the area, would foster more co-operation as then no one could stand and just whack away the entire fight.

dragons are meant to be easy when you have 40+ players attacking them.

try fighting them with less than 10 players.

this is working as intended.

dun fix what is not broken.

Increase scaling so theyre not easy with just a mass of players and problem will be solved I think.

I talk about ways ta make the Dragons “more difficult” in my topic here::

Jormag is fine, you can’t approach him easily as melee but there should be more ranged moves to “scare” off ranged from sitting still spamming 1. Tequiti is easy since you got a super laser that he never really approaches. His fight should be about protecting the laser by doing enough dmg to back him off b4 it smashes it to bits. Shatterer is just a joke however and needs to be stronger on offence. He is very easy to dodge, predictable, and for radiating electricity is not that scary. bump

Zitan was the biggest letdown ever.

Im sorry Anet but I feel that way. I love the game but fighting an elder dragon should not consist of running around for 30 mins killing gorrillas, and undead things and then stand there and spam fire a cannon at Zitan…

Hope the other elder dragon fights are better then this…

I had more fun fighting the Claw of Jormag..

MAKE ALL BOSSES/LARGE ENCOUNTERS HARDER….game is a snoozefest

Try fighting the Claw of Jormag when a bunch of people constantly tell people not to attack the dragon so they can farm the elementals. And then proclaim in chat that they are going afk and hoping it will take us a long time to kill the dragon. And they do nothing except come to loot the chest when we finally manage to kill him after 50 minutes!

So the dragons are hard enough as-is when ‘farmers’ are around that offer no assistance whatsoever just to spite the ones that want to play the event as intended in my humble (if somewhat agitated) opinion.
