Guild Wars 2

The end boss clockwork in the aether path is clearly way to easy to kill due to less health of the boss. It dies too fast. I managed to kill it with a first timer party on the second try and i even let myself die so we would fail, but instead I failed to make the kill fail. Does anyone share my opinion? or is the the boss hard enough the way it is. I hope arenanet gives the boss more health or resistance to damage when without aether shield.

Or not to easy. That is the question.

it shares the same learning curvature as liadri. Once learned properly, you can kill liadri 100 times in a row with little effort. However, killing her for the first time might take you 50 or more tries.

Clockheart shares that. Once learned it becomes easy, until that it can be a nightmare.

Thats true but i am not sure that works for the guardian class. I managed to kill her once (toughness/power build, greatsword) and killing her a second time with the same character is still a great challenge although i know how it works. well anyways would you consider clockwork being able to kill it solo if there werent any electric floors?

uhm? i soloed clockheart like 30 times. The electricity only appears on each tier 30, which can be easily stopped if you just kill a hologram near the boss and the explosion hit him while it’s tiering up. If you miss that by chance you will get a 25% of the room electrified (minimap counter clockwise), and that electricity can be easily removed if you just nuke an hologram near bosss even if he’s not tiering up.

Soloing clockheart is easy, and extremely fun ranged with a low character, took me 20 minutes once just for the fun i was having, i didn’t kill it fast xD

thought so
last boss in aether path solo-able, well i guess that proves it, it needs to be made more powerful

if you can solo the last boss obviously the last boss won’t be hard with 4 more newbie.

I think the boss is quite difficult for a group of newbie actually, at least I think it’s the hardest dungeon boss for newbie group. So if you want to complain, you might as well complain about every boss in this game.

I wouldn’t say that it couldn’t be more difficult with a group of newbies. You’d be surprised by the number of ways that they manage to mess things up. For example, they can destroy the hologram before it reaches the boss. There’s also the rest of the path.

Same as lupicus. They share a hard learning process, but once you learnt how to dodge or avoid every single attack, they are just easy.

However, both will be hard for newbies. Let’s say a boss being easy it’s just your reward because you finally learnt how to kill it. As i said before this happens also in Liadri, and if you don’t have a problem with her, u shouldn’t either with clockheart.

’This boss is too easy
give it more health!"
With a mindset like that, you could work for Anet!
High HP is NOT what makes a boss difficult or fun.

• Adding more HP is the worst balance option ever.
• The more ppl you have in your team not knowing what to do , the harder it gets.
  Try it with a pantasm gs mesmer,
  or; try it with a bear/drake ranger,
  or; try it with anyone with high survivality, aggroing the boss to the opposite direction from the holos, but denying to die after the 30stack effect.

It’s easy if you send your teammates to die in spinning sprockets, then you solo it.

With more hp it would only get boring. Luckily this one dungeon path is not boring.

Oh, by the way, Sparki & Slick part is duo-able, why not make them stronger? /sarcasm

actually i soloed clockheart with GS mesmer, and even in groups i take GS for interrupt and push.
i want to see sparki slick duo, i wont believe it’s duoable until i see

I’m pretty sure Sparki & Slick is soloable. I tried it once and did pretty good, was just really tired from researching enemies to gw2dungeons.

Can you record sometime?
Btw. gw2dungeons still doesn’t work for me :/ and I don’t really have access to my router setup.

I can try it tonight but no promises.

No idea about gw2dungeons as Dulfy has to deal with the support.

I think this boss is fine the way that it is atm. Giving him more HP doesn’t seem necessary and it has some pretty cool attacks that make the encounter more interesting than most.

You want a “boss” that’s too easy? Legendary Jotun Skygazer.

He’s the hardest. His “fight” hypnotizes you into sleep, then bam – fire under your feet.

Hahaha this is so true
