Twilight Arbor Blossoms - NERD RAGE
Those things are so freaking annoying, though my guild has done a couple of TA Explore runs that we’re somewhat used to nervously looking around all the time trying to keep them down. I think they need to increase the time between when the blossoms spawn to when they’re able to shoot out their poison cloud, maybe add another second would be nice.
Bring a gaurdian tell him to put his staff on and lead the way, problem solved. And btw there actually a god send, if you go down kill one your revive, pretty awesome
To new players they are definitely the most annoying part of the dungeon.
To TA vets, they are your saviour.
Honestly, the blossoms are just annoying. That’s all. Killing them for the rally – not the worthy tradeoff. Drastically reduce their spawn times. Or better yet remove them completely. What are they for – tab-targeting and range attacks just for the sake of it?
This goes under the “overhaul dungeon dynamics please, replace these cheap ones with some that are actually fun and worth seeing” rant I’ve been supporting all over the forums.
After running trough TA about 70 times now, I honestly don’t even care about the blossoms any more. In fact I quite like having them around for an easy rally.
Complaining about blossoms is so 2 weeks ago. They are present/respawn in set locations, just pull mobs to where there are no blossoms and stay there, simple. They also serve as a free rally.
“GW2’s PvE is almost as bad as the PvP.”
Blossoms are amazing to rally off
If TA didn’t have blossoms it would be an easier farm than pre-nerf Cof. Practice positioning, dedicate someone with an AoE or bouncing auto-attack to watch for blossoms. If there is anything in TA which I think needs a change is the fact that the wurm ranged ‘barrages’ aren’t affected by deflection abilities (feedback, wall of deflection etc)
I love blossoms for reasons stated. Forever a rally. I can solo through the first boss because of this. Giant worm? Tough luck when he can’t hit me in melee range! Spawn adds? Just rally whenever I do go down.
Yeah. I don’t know how I’d feel about TA if I wasn’t able to rally off the blossoms.
Those blossoms are a blessing in disguise.

Agreed… The first boss is just silly easy. With my ranger I can kill it without taking any damage, from the adds or the boss itself.
The only annoying part about shrooms is that projectile weapon (like staff on necro or rifle on warrior) is often bugged on them, and you get “Obstructed” or “Out of range” message.
