Guild Wars 2

This skill point is ridiculous, I don’t know what game designer deiced to add Condition damage plus insane direct damage from THREE mobs that pretty much guarantee 3 deaths to finish!

Some skill points are so out of whack you guys really need to go back and adjust them, this is one of them.

Is this the one where ya have ta jump down onta the platform surrounded by lava an’ fight off the endlessly spawnin’ mobs while also fightin’ the monsters summoned for the skill point?

I died like 5 times doin’ this one.

I wanna report this Skill Challenge for griefin’ me.

Don’t see the problem. I was able to solo this on my Mesmer and Warrior, who’ve both completed the map.

As for the skillpoint (which is in Fireheart Rise) Jack of Tears is talking about, that one isn’t all that difficult either as long as you hurry and get out of there before the entire map is after you.

Soloed it on my engineer with no serious difficulty.

Why would you automatically assume the issue is with the challenge itself?

The only skill points that are ‘’out of whack’’ are the ones that can’t be completed due to a bug, if you ask me.

Just completed this one on my Elementalist (who is still using lvl 46 gear and even lower jewels). It’s not the easiest skill challenge, but it’s definitely doable.

If you can’t solo it, just bring a guildmember, a friend, or a random player from /MAP chat.

Apparently we got there at the wrong time ah day, then, because we weren’ given 30 seconds without another wave ah Charr rushin’ up the ramps to swarm me an my friend what did the challenge with me. I don’ mind hard, but whatever set this one inta overdrive last night was makin’ it insane.

You all seem to be talking about the wrong skill point.
The OP is talking about Emberclaw and his two imp minions on top of a boulder.
It’s insanely difficult because of the lack of free movement and the fact that all 3 hit really hard.

I died twice before I figured out you have to take down the two imps first, one at a time, jumping down after each to recover (they won’t follow you).
Once the two imps are gone, Emberclaw on his own is relatively easy

Did this yesterday on my Thief, must say he was probably the hardest class I have done this SP with so far but he managed to pull it off without dying.

Contiguous.1345 is def right about taking the adds out first (which is usually the case anyways except if the boss info says “summons allies” or what not).

Hey, I can see my younger self from here!

Just give a shout in map chat, if it’s not a dead time of day someone will come give you a hand; especially, if it’s someone else having trouble.

There is a group DE that spawns in the same area. Sounds like you got involved with that.
