I’m actually asking/suggesting and wondering at the same time here….

Are there any plans for a future underwater world boss? and I’m wondering how many players here would actually like to see one.
As far as GW2 goes Underwater feels like a whole new world, though it’s not that popular i don’t see much complaints about it either, so is there anyone else who thinks an underwater world boss would be a good idea?

There is one in Orr already, a king crab. But it gives no daily chest. I bet Anet forgot about it.

Don’t think I’d consider it a WB but there is also the jellyfish in the underwater fractal.

I know there are underwater champions and events, But i’m talking a real world boss, on a scale of Tequatl/Shatterer/Jormag’s breath

In all honesty i do think most World bosses need a revamp to make them more like how teq and triple trouble is done, but that aside going from land to water just seems like a great change

There used to be one in Caledon Forest during Beta. It was an undead crab by Morgan’s Spiral. It’s still there, just not an active event.

There was one in beta, in Caledon Forest. You can still see the icon for it at http://gw2.mmorpg-life.com/group-event-defeat-the-monstrous-corrupted-crab/3430/ but the actual event is gone, replaced by the corrupted Hylek event. And this seriously was a world boss, it took full DPS from everyone on the map for a good 10 minutes to take down, kind of like the original FE, didn’t attack much though, you mostly had to deal with the mobs.

No thanks the underwater combat is still unfinished.. as a thief I don’t even have access to 1 of my classes mechanics.

It’s even more boring to spam 2 underwater than it is 1 on land

Particle effect slider would be ‘too confusing’

I hope the game will see in the future a bigger world boss revamp patch, that also introduces more new World Bosses, including those old one from beta with new achievements ect.

In regard of underwater qworld bosse,s I’d love to see somethign like a huge KRAKEN in Orr or so.

Personally I like the idea behind sub classes ~ quoted from Chris Whiteside

Problem about UW combat :

  • hitboxes are messed up. As an ele, you cannot hit your target reliably with Air AA.
  • Lack of internal and profession balance in UW combat
  • Crowd control is wonky
  • AoE do not have red circle/spheres to help us dodge.

All in all, UW combat is unfinished. Before adding new UW content, let’s just fix what is currently broken.

Any player who faced the undead shark in curse shore will tell you that it is impossible to predict his charge move that OHK you. So you stay at range and spam #1 while drinking coffee. Interesting gameplay isn’kitten

The only MMO so far where i thought underwater combat is not totally bad was Champions Online, and even there most people avoided the underwater zone like the plague.

Not that there aren’t beautiful places here underwater .. but fighting .. no thanks.
I would indeed be for removing all aggro mobs from underwater, so that i could
just explore without having to bother with fighting

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.
