Guild Wars 2

So my group that I normally run dungeons with decided to attempt this path tonight. Never did it before, but just going in we immediately ran into what we felt was a bug.

I’ve looked into it a bit, and I understand that the part we’re have troubles with is a gauntlet event. However, I don’t feel that we were properly encountering the mobs. Are the mobs supposed to infinitely spawn, even during the boss fights? What exactly are you supposed to do?

Every time that we tried to run the grenadiers away from the boss, it would result in a reset so that wasn’t the solution. And fighting them at the same time as either of the first two bosses just felt ridiculous.

Mind you, my group has never really found any other dungeon incredibly difficult. This is the first, aside from Giganticus Lupicus, that we found to be hard.
Any help?

Thanks.

This needs to be fixed or they need to stop spawning at some point.

They stopped spawning after we died enough. Hope that isn’t counted as an exploit. =/

They’re supposed to stop spawning when you engage Nokk. But prior to the ‘patch’, people would just glitch out the first wave of Grenadiers to stop them from spawning entirely, easymoding the dungeon. It’s another one of many unintentional side effects.

You can work around it, though, it just requires a party split. Fight your way up to the golem miniboss as normal. Once it’s down, kill all but one grenadier. One person stays behind to kite/distract/etc this grenadier, everyone else goes to kill Nokk.

Some are more suited to Grenadier duty than others, though. As a tip: Mesmer players can literally afk against an entire wave of Grenadiers in nearly complete safety.
