Guild Wars 2

Hello, looking for advice on path 3 of HOTW. The underwater boss, the zealot took us FOREVER to kill. At least 15 minutes.

Basically all we did was attack the boss. We ignored the jellyfish and the barracuddas.

One problem I noticed is that someone was always dead. The jellyfish explode and take 70% of life away and they are constantly spawned. Someone would die. It would take me a few minutes of kiting jellies/cuddas and attempts at rezzing to finally get the guy up, then someone else would go down. The team didnt seem to have enough heals to outheal the jellies. Even for a guardian I found a ton of close calls but I was able to stabalize quickly due to all my heals. Any suggestions?

Thanks guys/gals

Rally of the ‘cudas, rally off the Jelly bombs. Otherwise just hit him till he dies. It’s not difficult unless you’re all terribad theives.

I swear they buffed this guy just recently because I attempted this path with a group tonight and we got owned and I’ve never had much trouble with him before. Basically I noticed that he kept sinking me like every five seconds (which I’ve never noticed before) and then I kept bugging out in that if he sunk me while downed I wouldn’t be able to move so I’d just get blasted to death by jellys. That and, like every boss in HotW, he has a rediculously high health pool (Earth to Anet! This isn’t good design and whoever thought giving bosses such stupidly high HP should be slapped and then canned) so unless everyone is running a pure DPS build he takes at least ten minutes to whittle down.
