Guild Wars 2

So I have recently started to grind SE to get toughness gear and I can’t seem to run the first path efficiently enough. From what I understand you absolutely need a thief to AOE stealth the group to avoid the grenadier patrols. Furthermore, is it intended that the grenadiers patrols to keep spawning? The only way to do the first boss is to kill the patrol and leave one alive, then have one person kite the patrol while the other four kill the boss. Is the boss a dps race? are we suppose to kill it before the patrol spawns? And the second boss sometimes the patrols spawn and sometimes it does not. Are there any bugs in the path I should know about?

there are 15 patrols as far as I am aware.

If you hang out near the waypoint right after the asuran gate you can kill them much easier (more room to kite, can constantly and easily respawn as needed)

it’s a little bad TBH. I would prefer it if a patrol came by every time you killed a barrier, rather than just 15 patrols with 1 minute intervals.

There are 13 patrols and they don’t stop even after you kill the bosses. One method is to afk for 13 minutes after triggering the path… that one takes a while though.

Just finished this. We cheesed it by keeping one of the grenadiers alive. I have a feeling some of them are supposed to stay behind the first boss. Otherwise, the gate system feels silly.

All paths of Sorrow’s Embrace need a little nerf and more than 1 Waypoint…

Ascalon: Hard
Caudecu’s Manor: Easy
Twilight Arbor: Medium
Sorrow’s Embrace: Annoying
Citadel of Flame: Easy
Honor of the Waves: Easy
Crucible of Eternity: Hard
Arah: Almost Impossible

Where is the balance? o0’
