Guild Wars 2

Boss Blitz in the Queen’s Pavilion is an AMAZING example of what bosses in GW2 can/SHOULD be like.

Each boss with various abilities and things the zerg needs to do blows away EVERY world boss (fight alone, not counting the prereq).

Think of the Boss Blitz and simply update world bosses with the same type features!

Covington Keep

Pre is a GREAT event, but when Taidha Covington comes out, the zerg literally blasts away AFK managing inventory not doing anything..

Simply giving her the Boom Boom and Wiggin abilities makes this fight AWESOME. It’s so simple and already programmed into the game.. the zone alone already has pirates on cannons thus it just makes sense! (also fix her death bug please)

Megadestroyer

Give it the abilities of Pyroxis or even new ones.. again people just blast it from the lava shore.

Dungeon Bosses

Apply same logic.

I could go on and on, but it’s simple to make world bosses and dungeon bosses amazing because Boss Blitz is amazing.. so I know you have the imagination and technology..

Can we please eliminate the ability for zergs to just sit there not doing anything but have their ranged weapon auto-firing skill #1? Too many are like this..

..list goes on..

TL;DR – Give world bosses and dungeon bosses Boss Blitz style fun.

Not everyone is to one boss blitz fun.

Only if it comes with a SUBSTANTIAL reward increase.

I agree that most world bosses need something, but just giving them the Pavilion bosses’ attacks won’t be enough, IMO. Each world boss has its own issues (Megadestroyer should be immune to immobilize for example), and can be improved in ways unique to themselves.

Fights like at the end of Molten Facility (remember those two guys?) was AWESOME. Until one figures out how to speedkill it, the same goes for the Giganticus Lupicus. It would be neat if each boss had its own design on par to these.

If the rewards were actually worth the time investment I would agree. But compared to the pavilion last time, this is twice the work for garbage rewards. The boss mechanics on the other hand are interesting. We can only hope people figure out how to split and defeat each boss at the same time instead of one at a time. As it is, those who know the strategy are just being punished by the mob mentality of the rest. People often complain that GW2 is a one button game, but that’s often all they learn how to do. It needs more incentive to work together to do things the right way. The way Anet is going I’m just starting to dread when other players show up to “help”. That’s not how it should be.
