Guild Wars 2

how onearth are you suppose to get this guy with a pug

i tryed it like alot and always failed wtf is this for event that even cant be beaten up by pugs its forgot sake a normal event of the chain lol plz nerf this guy down i nead my item from him for my glints bastion dangit

I just got this HP with a PUG. The Alpha will focus concentrations of players. The way to win is to spread out and range. I saw a group of heavies try to melee and use timed CC. They got a pretty good hammering. The light and medium armors carried the fight by staying clear and spread out.

I think the issue may be that he gets scaled up so much. Has anyone tried it with like 10 people?

The vinetooth target message reads or used to read something like; “Punishes grouping too closely together.” That’s a pretty clear hint.

oke so ranged i heared condi dmg is good but not sure

Makes a big difference if you manage to break his bar a couple times. I saw him go down today, but we had something like 30-40 people from the look of it and it was pretty close. We broke his bar 1 or 2 times.

wel i just made it rofl we broke the bar like 3 times and we made it nice nice nice in finaly done with this event its realy hard but fun =)

Really annoying, I know that during his green cc phase if he kills someone then the breakbar goes back. Problem is he always seems to go for me and I’m not sure why! I’m a druid. I thought maybe it was because the person furthest away he’ll target, so I tried staying close. Still killed me, I tried going far – still killed me. I tried using skill 3 on staff as he’s going after me, somehow he still managed to kill me! It got to the point that when it was nearing the green bar I’d run across to the other side of the room to get out of combat so he wouldn’t target me and then run forward once his initial ‘run’ is done. I’m not sure why he’s always targeting me but it’s becoming really annoying. Any thoughts or ideas on how this can be avoided? Or is there a trick I’m missing?
