Seriously, we are already going into a new dragon which is cool and all. But Zhaitan still hasn’t had a proper fight for closure… Is any dev even working on this? I believe Colin himself said somewhere that it was on a list of things to come. The only thing I imagine is this has something to do with Tequatl, but they even confirmed Zhaitan dead. I’ve heard nothing more on this and to this day it really bothers me.

Word on Zhaitan was that he looks the coolest, you only see him for a few seconds, and then you shoot stuff at him while not being able to be harmed, as he sits on a mountain while you win the game by spamming 1 button. That’s still the word.

how can anyone be hyped for another dragon fight when this was unfinished and that we still have no idea what a legit Elder dragon fight should be like?

It’s the number 2 key-and don’t you dare forget it; ‘2’ is mvp. I think they want to just sweep Zhaitan under the rug and pretend it didn’t happen. I just hope Mordy isn’t a disappointment. Granted I’m not particularly wowed by the idea to reveal the ‘secret’ dragon immediately after Zhaitan rather than involving the other dragons everyone knows about but meh.

What are you talking about? It is finished. Highly disappointing, but finished.

As for reason to be ‘hyped’, well…precisely because the first one was underwhelming. A new dragon is a second chance of sorts you see-a chance to wipe the slate if you will.

Zhaitan wasn’t meant to be a boss fight. It was meant to be a story. You start fighting Zhaitan at level 70 and systematically weaken him, until the asuran technology made specifically to be anti-dragon magic finishes him. It all works as a story.

But I hate most boss fights anyway. Matter of personal taste, obviously.

They will change the Zhaitan fight by placing the new dragon on the other side of the mountain and making you alternate your attacks between number 2 and number 3 to defeat both simultaneously.

I think they would redo the Zhaitan fight if they had the time for it. I doubt they have, since there is tons of stuff to work on with the 2-weekly schedule of the living story (which I like).

Hmm… y’know I never thought of it but a living story update where we return to Orr and find a wounded Zhaitan scrawling to survive and maintain some control of his armies, and then have a REAL final battle against him sounds pretty freaking awesome. Much better than revamping the awful existing fight.

But, cool as it would be, it would be really lame as LS content because it would only be temporary. Cheating players out of the true conclusion to their personal story would probably be ANets worst decision to date.

Conncept I already said they stated HES DEAD. DEAD IS DEAD. ITS OVER.
I refuse to call that fight finished. Epic fight with Zhaitan should at least last like 30 minutes of well thought out strategy. Elder Dragons are one of the main reasons I bought this game. Then I found out we don’t fight all six at launch, the continent itself wasn’t even finished, and so much lore mysteries aren’t even answered yet and its been almost two years now. The newer smaller boss fights put up a better challenge. oh and just to add on they remodeled zhaitan, and his original model was the size we would’ve expected out of an elder dragon.
