Guild Wars 2

There are a few fairly unforgiving mechanics in this fight that seem to be leading to discouragement among the fainthearted. Something that might help is the chance to practice when there isn’t so much going on. How about instead of the explosive fish everywhere before Teq appears:

- (10-15 mins before he appears) start randomly spawning waves for people to practice jumping
- let a bloated creeper or two walk up out of the sea for people to attack while jump/dodging waves
- pop a few fingers here and there

Not sure if this would help, but the thought occurred so I am offering it. Love the encounter, and thanks to the team that put so much effort into it already. Already looking forward to more complex encounters.

I think this is a good idea. It would also announce the Dragon which is nice because atm there is no pre-event so just spawns and it is harder/more annoying to prepare.

i find this idea amazing it would also add the vibe of something threatening nearby followed by “Theres something in the water!”

right now it feels like
