Q:

1st, excuse my english.

So, yesterday i was in a pug doing Arah Explorable. It’s was incredible fun, ALL of it.
Discovering things and try to figure it how we need to proceed (without checking youtube) was amazing.
We did the Yissa path. It was relative easy till the last boss. Was impossible for us, so, after 10 tries, we give up, and leave. Here my questions:

  • At the end, I ended with a balance of -20 Silver(i did’t die a lot, only with last boss). The money reward, is going to be fixed in some way?
  • I got 0 tokens in the dungeons. Only the last boss give them? Is that going to change? Because… we spend about 2 hours doing the dungeons. It’s was a lot of fun, but, 0 tokens?
  • The loot, in all the dungeon i got only Blues… not even a yellow/green. Is that the DR system? Is that going to be fixed?

Many thanks! and sorry if this questions were answered a lot before.

A:

What was the last boss? Was it Lupicus? It sounds like Lupicus, this is not the last boss. The last boss for Yissa I think was some boss in a forcefield? I cant remember who Yissa is, but generally all the end boss of all the paths arent that hard. So Im assuming your talking about Lupicus.

Now to answer your questions.

1-If you finish the whole dungeon, and its not your first time, you will usualy have a + in silver after you get the reward xp, silver, tokens + sell all the junks you get.

2-Yes, you only get tokens once you finish the Dungeon. This was a new update Anet put in to stop the excessive Token farming practice that was going on including certain groups of players exploiting the previous token system.

3.The loots generally are junk, but if you sell them all it makes a couple silver. Also, it is possible to get yellow and exotic items in dungeons, just not every run. This is also an anti exploit system to stop players from speed running dungeons just to get an exotic every round. If an exploit was to be found to speed complete a dungeon, it would risk the GW2 economy etc etc.

I hope this answered your question. Just keep in mind, the first time is when you die most.

So Lupicus is just the fist boss? xD Holy kittens!

But appeared after 2 hours of full trash! and there was a lot of “champions” giving chest with cool mechanics before. I thought that they were bosses too :-S

Yeah the Arah Dungeon takes about 2-5hours to complete. Depending on your team. Yes Lupicus is only the midway boss. After Lupicus, a whole new path opens up depending on which path you chose. At the end you will find out a bit more information about the Lores of Tyria, which may be interesting to some. At the same time you will be rewarded for finding the lost secrets hidden in Arah.

There is 2-3 more boss events after Lupicus btw so…I would assume in total there is…7-9 boss events in 1 full Arah dungeon? Including puzzles etc. Might be more, not sure havnt counted.

Its worth beating Lupicus tbh, the Arah Dungeon holds a lot of secrets to unlock, plus its fun^^
