Guild Wars 2

Unfortunately, I was not able to take part in the HoT Stress Test so this is based solely on second hand accounts.

After talking to someone who did participate in the Stress Test, reading the forum and checking out posted pictures I wondered. The new fire-breathing Wyvern looks quite dynamic, pro/reactive and seems to have superior AI/Strategies & Tactics as compared to our current Dragon Champions (i.e. Claw, Shatterer, Tequatl).

It strikes me as odd that a lower class of dragon or dragon-like creature (Wyvern) would be so energetically superior in vigorous play to an encounter with its Dragon Lieutenant cousins.

So I wonder, does this mean we might expect that our current Draco-bosses could wise up and alter their Immobilized/Repetitive interactivity with the HoT release or maybe even before?

Thoughts?

In an ideal world, but they did say they had the core world where they wanted it and HoT itself was their focus.

So no I don’t think we will see any changes, even if I think some bosses are desp for the changes (see similar thread on this subforum)

Yeah I did not want to compare to ALL the Boss mechanics just the dragon ones since the Wyvern and Dragon were so similar.

Teq is in a good position difficulty and mechanics wise.
He doesnt drop kitten most of the time, so there is no reason to rework the fight to make it harder.

The other dragons could really use an update tho, especially the kitten shatterer who is so easy that you basically cant get the achievement anymore.

Colin confirmed that they don’t want to spend time to redesign old content but make new one so no for old dragons revamp.

I do think when we go up against say Kralkatorrik, they will revamp Shatterer in the same way Teq was though.

He’s a bit…..embarrassing right now
