Guild Wars 2

So lately I’ve noticed a lot of people switching alts at the last boss when the boss is at 15% and below at path 1. I’ve had on multiple occasions of 2 people switching to an alt at final boss without any warning beforehand. What would be the best strategy if 2 people leave at final boss to go on their alt? Should 1 person take out the crystals while the other 2 dps boss? Does this work also for parties with poor dps?

A better scenario is for someone to hold the cutscene all the way while they swap. (They can leave as the boss dies/after/or when the boss is at 2% health.)

If they, however, insist on switching at 25%, the best strategy is to keep dpsing with all your members. If his health isn’t going down, THEN take out crystals. (If nobody is taking out crystals, you can have the Mesmer, if he’s still there, swap to Crystals while the boss has >5 crystal buffs on him, to maintain him at 5, but have him swap back to DPS when it gets to 5ish). Why 5? It’s easy to outdps and killing all of them takes too long. The reason why you want the mes to take them out is, theoretically, he can use iZerker + Spatial Surge to take out 2 crystals in a short period of time. As a Warrior, you’d have to either go melee on them or use a rifle.

Okay, thank you

you should kick them if they change without asking permission.

They should really be mentioning that at the beginning if they are going to swap. If you are worried about it ask in the beginning is nobody mentions it.
