Guild Wars 2

What is this sudden fascination with skipping the champion hellstorm on the bridge in path 1? Before the patch, I’d never been in any group that wanted to skip him. Now after the patch where he actually drops 10s + chance of exotic/rare every group I find wants to skip him.

I’ve always held the principle that for pugs, your expectations can never be too low, but this? In what universe does this make sense?

It makes sense becouse the champion on the bridge doesn’t drop 10s,or at least it didn’t when I tryed it ( so a week ago )
People who already know that he doesn’t drop just skip it.

He does not drop the silver.

I always ask the group if they want to skip it or not. For me it’s not a as you generalise it. If the majority of people don’t want to skip it, then we don’t. If they do, then we do. it’s all about what the team wants.

I can see why people want to skip it, as he does not drop anything.

He doesn’t drop silver or bags.
Killing any mobs between the slave driver and the acolyte room would be a waste of time.
