Guild Wars 2

Pinkey Flowery.7018:

If you leave the siege up in the middle the ballistas constantly knockback the Shaman. He then casts the ritual from where he gets knocked back to and will aggro one or, at most, two mobs which are significantly easier to deal with than the four that you normally have to deal with.

Just a minor correction, mobs come in group of three, not four.

I didn’t mean the number of adds in each group I meant the number of mobs in total. There are 4 groups that spawn. 5 actually but the last one doesn’t reach the Shaman in time.

Yes, completely legit. As expected.

I guess it would be in line with the old kegway in CM P2, or maybe even 1-4 in CoE P1. The game gives you the option to destroy or leave the siege. I guess a legit way to duo the path would be to attempt to permastealth the Shaman.

There’s a huge difference between making things easier and making things faster. Kegway obviously was an exploit (as it was fixed) but 1-4 doesn’t really make it any easier. If you can deal with the first wave then you can also repeat it for the other waves.

This is true. For me, my opinion has been that if it exists in the game world it’s fair game with the exception of things that completely prevent an enemy from fighting back or going through geometry. I concede how I did Ascalon isn’t exactly legitimate, but then nor do I believe stacking in Dredge or Cliffside to clump them all up and make their fights far easier considerably legitimate either.

Do you also jump over the first gate?

That edit…anyway, no I don’t even know what that is. I kill every mob in the fractal path upto the defend event.

I guess I have to try this.

1) Jump over the first gate
2) Kill Dulfy through the gate
3) Skip every enemy
4) Pull enemies away from the courtyard
5) Use above mentioned trick to reposition Shaman
6) CC enemies to protect Shaman (NPC’s probably won’t be around)
7) ???

I didn’t realize someone would get so mad over a fractal….

Are you serious?
