Guild Wars 2

Who would win? The Grand High Viscount of Candy Corn from the Mad King doors or the Legendary Skeletal Lich from the Bloody Prince doors?

My money is on the Viscount in 1v1. Lich has Life Steal, Retaliation and Protection but can only spawn one skeleton in this scenario. However, Viscount has tons of armor/HP along with waves and waves of knockbacks. Additionally, the Viscount can summon minions of its own, though not of the buffed kind that the Lich can summon.

I think the Lich would win mostly because it can heal itself.

That’s a good point, the Lich could outheal the damage. The Lich may get heals from the Viscount’s minions as well, so there is that factor in favor of Lich. But the Lich’s heals are based on the number of targets it hits and the skeletons it consumes, which would still be limited by the low amount of foes in one-on-one between the two.

Even still, I believe that the Viscount could still interrupt the heals after going through defiant stacks and put enough damage to still win the fight, while tanking the Lich’s damage since it has tons of hp and armor.

I can solo the Viscount easily.

The lich would win imo.

Do you use reflects when you solo Viscount? I do not believe the Lich has reflects.

I’ve easily solo’ed the viscount too. I don’t have any reflects on my bar, but i don’t need them to reflect his attacks since Candy Coated does that just fine.

Both viscount and lich can be soloed pretty easily. Lich has less health but is able to heal if enemies don’t counter the skeletal summon attack (you can keep reflects up and dodge or block his skeletal summoning attack easily and just range him). Viscount has much more health and is very easy to range.

The lich heals from the number of allies around, draining their health into its own.
The viscount has more than enough health to soak a few hits from retaliation.

The lich summons less skeletons when it’s facing less enemies, so if it was a 1 vs 1, lich would definitely lose due to lack of healing ability.

If the viscount counted as one of the lich’s allies somehow, the lich could kill it in one hit from the health siphon move (I’ve seen the lich 1-shot the lab horror accidentally when it siphoned all its health instantly to heal itself.)

Viscount would win 1 v 1 unless it counts as an ally creature to the lich.

Funny thing, I’ve seen the Lich decimate the Horror in half a second. So fun to watch xD
