Guild Wars 2

I’m with Kasmeer and Marjory and I’m at the point where they ask me to “Smash the Inquest thing” (its an arcane dampener) so they can get by, but i’ve tried over and over clicking on the gear thing that pops up when next to it, and nothing happens. I eventually die from the two Veteran Inquest Assasin’s attacking me. How do you “Smash” it?

How do you “Smash” it?

You have to kill the Inquest first, THEN you can smash it. Basically, it forces you to do this fight alone.

Thanks, just figured that out!

I cannot do this. You simply cannot beat down the 2 Inquest assassins solo. My two “friends” just sit down below while I get my kitten beaten. Playing as an Ele, I am just a pin cushion for them, and since they’re chained you can’t get one alone and take it down. As a clothie, they wade in and just beat you down before you can do anything.

Complete dead end.

Use Glyph of storms with earth enchantment, it will blind them almost constantly

If that’s not enough, use the lightning hammer auto-attack chain, the final attack blinds surrounding enemies. Use the glyph in earth attunement to give them an initial blind, summon the hammer then autoattack them (try to position yourself so you hit both). It is far from impossible, just practice a bit and you’ll nail it.

Thanks, guys. It took several tries and broke every piece of gear I had, but I got through it. I just needed another way of looking at the problem. On to the Master of Peace.

Thanks from me as well. Could not figure out how to beat that part and was getting frustrated. Worked perfectly!

Ok, what about some help for a guardian?? i cannot pass this step either… any suggestions?

That’s how I did it on my Ele. Earth Elemental to tank, then spam Sandstorm (+ Radiation Field when that runs out) and a whole bunch of other AoE’s on my location. Watch as the Inquest get melted by conditions. XD
