The skill point to the southwest, near the grenth’s statue, needs reworking. One of these issues would make it challenging, two would make it hard, and three very tough, but all of them together make it literally impossible to do without at LEAST two people (or using some sort of bugging)

1) The drakes surrounding the skillpoint are too close together.. Which shouldn’t be an issue, except for 2 and 3.
2) The drakes knock you back on a relatively small island, meaning they will constantly knock you off the ledge into the water. This means that the drake will now become invulnerable and you cant hit him and have to start the fight over again (a bug).. Which wouldnt be a big deal except for 3.
3) The drakes respawn WAYYY too fast. Even if I am not knocked off and they are reset, I can only kill 3 drakes before another comes spawning behind me.
4) There is a veteran surrounding the skillpoint. Again, not an issue if not for the other things.
5) the statue does massive damage to you and cannot be stopped, making killing even one drake then retreating difficult.
6) You are being shot at by some unknown enemy from a distance extremely far away. Very aggravating because it does a ton of damage on top of the massive damage the statue already does to you, and makes it so that you HAVE to retreat from the whole area to heal.
7) The area is right smack dab in the middle of 3 champions spawn, so if you retreat into the water you will get killed by a champion.

I attempted this for an hour before I just gave up and waited till help could come. Me and my partner still barely did it.. He (a mesmer) had to kite the mobs in a circle while fleeing so I could grab the skillpoint, and I had to do the same for him. I don’t like to “cheese” the game but in this case I had to.
