Guild Wars 2

The Observatory has a ton of issues.

• The eye mechanic only works part of the time (note: I use action cam, so this could be partly an interaction issue with that). You can look away and still take the fear or conditions.

• Jumping over the black rings only sometimes works. Even if it does not apparently hit you it can still sometimes apply agony and other statuses.

• Solar blooms do not move logically if close to you. You can hit them one way and they will go a completely different way.

• Gladiator and golem attacks apply damage and conditions even if not apparently hitting or dodged.

• Instant kill radius for the beam does not match visuals.

• Possible to fall out of the vortexes during the shaman fight and die.

• Containment skull will attach/stay attached to downed or dead characters.

• Timing to avoid full aoes after the CC fazes of Virrastra fight is too particular.

• Arrk’s defiance bar is too big for most parties.

• During gladiator, the timing of the mesmer blades with the black rings is such that it is nearly impossible to doge both, since you are still in the animation from dodging the mesmer blades when the ring arrives.

• Virrastra fight is too much about covering everything with AOEs and tanking it for lower-defense classes to avoid going down repeatedly.

Problem 1 and 2: might be cause from high latency.
Problem 3: might be cause from multiple ppl attacking at once. Or if you are too close to it and hit it from a wierd side.
Problem 4: is a disgn choice i believe. It promote condi cleansing after you avoid the flat dmg.
Problem 5: i have never noticed but idk might be true.
Problem 7: is an issue yes.
Problem 8: Use special action key when she does the big aoe and the position to avoid the beam and the smallers ones.
Problem 9: Every one on the party has the special action key which is a cc.
Problem 10: unless you got a long evaid then you are better of moving out of other ppls blades and jumping. You will still get the dmg but its not much and its better than getting cc’ed.
Problem 11: u can use special action key to move around or jump over the aoes and staying close to a healer makes it far more easy to deal with.

Problem 6: no idea which part of the fractal this is.
