Guild Wars 2

I was doing Crucible of Eternity path 1 with a group of friends, we struggled against the subject alpha and his infernal areas but then after that came this boss called Bjarl, it’s a cool looking boss but the thing is that we damaged him with 0’s, 50’s and luckily sometimes 100’s plus the life he has is extremely high. In my opinion i think it is stupid and moronic to put a boss which takes a millenium years to take down, i mean what if i don’t have the time enough to finish it? I am sure people don’t have like 2 hours to kill a boss maybe even more than that. We took like 45 minutes to take his life down to maybe possibly a 85% after that we decided to quit and we wasted all of our time. Arenanet, i ask you to please overlook this because it’s way too ridiculous, if anyone else has an opinion about this please i would gladly love to read it, thank you

That fight is actually bugged last time I checked. How you’re supposed to kill him is to lure him into those electrical poles so that he gets knocked down, which removes his Scales of Jormag buff. Then you can do normal damage to him instead of single-digit damage. However, he doesn’t always get knocked down by the poles, which is the bugged part of the encounter.

He’s bugged at the moment, you can kill him through conditions damage mostly. Before he was bugged, you were supposed to get rid of his buff by making him charge at an obstacle.

Ohh i see, that makes a lot of sense now, thank you

Bugged and has been for over a week now……….

I guess I’ll just keep waiting for a fix……………….or just move on.

I guess CoF 1 is the new Arah 1. The latter one’s been bugged for over a month and still no signs of a fix.

Hahahaha! Me and my guildies killed him yesterday in his bugged version. 90 minutes…

DIVA

@Robert Hrouda, – thanks again for the reply! any idea when the next patch will be? hope i didn’t miss anything.

last time we fought Bkarl, he actually bugged out even more and was just running in spot, not moving. most of our team put on auto attack with conditions and went AFK. O___o came back 30 mins later and he was dead. haha sigh. we had a stubborn group! not as stubborn as DIVA’s though! 90mins!

I kill him every day, it takes less than 30 min. Just get some rampager dps.

what I don’t understand is why the hell does anet keep putting these patches on that create more bugs of the instances. Revert whatever it is you put into the game that is causing the bugs, not leave it there until you figure out how to unbreak your game. A perfect example of this is the Hatchery quest. Very early after the first week where the bug was noted someone made a fix for the bug, HOWEVER, anet decided to do something with some sound files which made the fix unusable. They added in the new sound files, keeping the bug, instead of removing the bug before putting in new sound files.

Sometimes I just don’t understand why some things happen the way they do but it’s what we have to live with…

When somethings bugged this badly, you should just temp close the path or something so people don’t accidently choose it and find out the hard way (and get angry/sad)

Robert Hrouda.1327:

sorry about that, but he is currently bugged. Will be fixed in the next patch.

Looking forward to it, i love that boss
