Guild Wars 2

So, doing the final fight in the HoT story, goes pretty smoothly until the second AoE attack… and no matter how many times I run to an updraft or how much I mash my jump key to deploy the glider, it doesn’t. I die.

Second try, same thing happens.

Third try, rift is opened in mid air, I have to die to reset. I have to die multiple times because Canach keeps picking me up (thanks for NPCs that actually help, btw, I do appreciate that).

Fourth try, I snuggle up with Braham because I figure his shield will protect me too, right? Wrong. Oh, this time Canach is content in watching me die at his feet. Knew I can’t trust sylvari.

Fifth time, glider finally deploys, halleluj- nevermind, knocked out of the sky and instantly die, because it took me three tries before it would deploy so I had no health.

Sixth time, finally get the glider to deploy, and… oh, rift is opened in mid air again.

Really enjoyed the story up until that point, shame I had to stop at such a sour note.

I cannot agree more. My wife, stepson, and I tried it 6 times before we all rage quit and decided to wait to do the final story until all bugs are fixed. This is a MAJOR issue that needs serious correcting.

By the way, the mods around here apparently have no idea what a spoiler is and will tag anything that remotely resembles anything close to something that could be in the game. You might want to drop a spoiler tag on your title or else they will throw this post into oblivion like they did mine.

Yeah, I think you’ve nailed it. The challenging content is not rage quitting due to all the bugs.

Pretty much nailed my experience.

Fair enough, tag added.

It’s ridiculous, I know.

I don’t see how anything he wrote could possibly be considered a spoiler, but I don’t doubt you’re right about people going crazy avoiding them.

Neither did I. Here’s what I got on a one-sentence question post I made:

“Your post in All of my party join me for the final fight? was infracted by a moderator:

Why can’t all members of my party join me for the final mordremoth fight?

Moderator Note:

Please do not post spoilers in the forums. We define spoilers as posting or discussing game information that may not be generally known by all players. If you intend to discuss subjects that are, or may be seen to be, spoilers, please show courtesy towards your fellow forum members by doing the following:

• Flag the subject line of a new thread with [Spoiler]. For example: “Discussion of Heart of Thorns Story [Spoilers]”
• Use the forum functionality that hides the spoiler content. This is done by using the word [spoiler] to open the spoiler section and then [/spoiler] to close it.

This infraction serves only a warning. Additional infractions may award Infraction Points which can negatively affect your account. Infraction points may cause loss of privileges, including forum suspension.

• The topic was moved.

This is an automated message generated by an infraction given by a human moderator. If you believe you have received this infraction in error or wish to make an appeal, please send an e-mail to forums@arena.net."

Why is that still in the game? wth …

It’s pretty appalling that fixing the bugs in the final encounter were not deemed top priority as soon as they came to light.

Below is the list from the last patch notes – Can anyone seriously justify spending time and effort on fixing any or all of those over ensuring that the climax to your release is working as intended?
