Guild Wars 2

Warmaster Grast does not put up his bubble. Instead he spends the whole fight trying to do his super slow hammer attack. Please fix.

Yep, spawns bubble when everybody is allready downed by bosses seismic attack.

I can confirm this. We tried for one hour to beat that boss, but it’s impossible if the NPC doesn’t out up the bubble, or if he dies early during the fight.

At least in path 1 the fire works if the npc is dead. (then we could kill him and the bubble would time right cuz he’s not trying to attack) Why not have a similar mechanic? As it stands right now, you pretty much have to go full dps and hope that the bubble works once on the first try (stealth revive warmaster between tries, probably take you 5+ tries) and that you can dps him down before you need 2 bubbles. That’s how we finished it the one and only time. You cant even strip the defiant fast enough to keep him from doing it. I was a initiative specced thief and when i threw on offhand pistol (and scorp wire) to strip the defiants I couldn’t even keep up. Once we gave the other thief an offhand pistol it helped some, but you should not need 2+ thieves with a certain weapon to defeat a boss.

TLDR Make the npc ALWAYS do the bubble at the right time. Atm his reflexes are lacking
