I had a conversation between me and one of my friends about how WoW dungeons were cool in Burning Crusade.

“- Do you remember Shattered Halls?
- Yeah man, that was crazy. Crazy pulls.
- We had to mark every single targets for maximum CC.
- Yeah, the hunter had the blue square, the druid had the green circle, the mage had the star, etc..
- Imagine two seconds if we had this feature in Guild Wars 2? "

We already use the target to mark, but imagine if we could have the same amount of symbols like WoW. Elementalist, you take the star, Ranger, you take the circle, I will take the skull and the X, the other, make sure everybody stand in the combo field. What do you think

If you are in a group and all of you are targetting different mobs…you will die. And you will fail miserably.

So the only way is to AoE everything down?

Focus em down 1 by 1 while controlling the rest.

This thread is more about the potential CCs a group can have.

Different targets will help in a couple months. The collective intelligence will raise.

The difference is that you can’t really control 1 mob an entire fight by yourself like you could with sheeps or traps.

Oh yeah, I know. But I’m sure we can do better with CC’s

I’m sure the game is more than just “AoE comdo fields” everything.

You probably haven’t done much content. There are plenty of places where it’s beneficial to have one or two people keeping one enemy busy while the others deal with some group in a specific order.

Or situations where you want to mark one enemy as the “target” and another as “do not hit this one”, and then change one of the two marks mid-fight.

And there’s no reason why Arena Net can’t add, in the future, encounters where 5 players are supposed to handle 5 different enemies.

Multiple marks would be quite useful.

I don’t see how it’s harder to say ‘Feedback the left hunter, I’ll feedback the targeted one’ Instead of using the different types of targets and saying ‘You feedback star, I’ll feedback circle’ same thing really?
