Guild Wars 2

so… I went to go get seer path done for a guildy of mine, my guild runs it consistently we down her pretty much every try before this recent patch. She seems to be transitioning phases whenever she feels like it now, and refuses to go into that final part where you can actually kill her. We got her down to 25%, ran in the sparks before she hit 40% then she’d pop out, we’d hit her twice, and she’d go back in. This didn’t happen just once… it happened 7 times. I’m wondering if anyone has completed it since the patch, or if me and my friends are just getting sloppy.

I’ve noticed this too. I ran a stop watch when fighting her last night. While it wasn’t started precisely in time with the Sparks lining up since I was on Spark wrangling, I got everything from 15 seconds to 25 seconds. And even then when trying to do a full reset, sometimes she’d randomly come out of stealth with only 80% health.

Well, i dont mind boss is not pug friendly, but i do mind that it need specific builds / classes to get her down. Before we could down her with 2 glass canon elems 1 thief glass and guardian + necro. Now with same setup, same group who downed it before patch few times, we failed.

Did it with pug couple days ago took couple tries wasn’t that painful. Had guardian, ele, engi, berserker thief and warrior so nothing special. Stealth’s were mby 15-20 sec apart only had few issues with with sparks deagroing other than that it seemed fine.

did you down it before or after the patch? The question was if she’s been bugged because of the patch.

Noticed this too.
Before the patch, I beat her three times.
When she got past 50%, she would always stay around for a specific amount of time, no matter how low you got her.

After the patch, this has been changed.
When I tried, we got her to 10% from 60% after she stayed around for about 60sec. We got the sparks into place and she came out about 35-40%. She literally stayed around for 20 seconds before disappear at about 20%. We got the sparks into place and she came out at about 45-50%. She stayed for like 5seconds and then disappeared at 40%.

I have never seen this happen before. It seems once she goes past 50%, the amount of time she sticks around decreases significantly every time she comes around.

Congratulations ANet, you made a DPS check even worse.

After last patch.

I’ve seen a lot of hit and miss stories in my forum research since the last patch. @Diviner, that was the problem I was having too.
