Guild Wars 2

So I’ve been doing HotW runs to get the armor and I’ve noticed that a lot of people (regardless of the path) go to the right of the stairs leading into the open area where all the icebrood are. Like everyone just huddles into that area and I’ve never understood that because from my personal experience doing that dungeon in EXP, it’s never made a difference to me being hidden or on the side of the stairs. So I don’t know, can someone tell me if it makes a difference or not?

Line of sight. It balls them up, its faster to cleave than it is to fight everything spread out. Since this part is easy, theres no need to spend time dodging around, spreading out your DPS and wasting time when they can be balled up, and burned down.

Learn this, as its used in any type of organized or even pug run.

In Aetherblade Retreat, if your group isnt stacking and “Hiding” for at least 4 pulls in that dungeon, your taking too long to kill.

Ah, I gotcha. The only reason I think I wasn’t seeing the difference because essentially you’re doing the fighting just in a smaller more grouped up fashion.
