Guild Wars 2

I have tried 4 times now to get this one, and have been nowhere near successful. It seems whenever I hit one of those rotten fish, every single enemy inside the labyrinth, giant, ravager and subjegator alike, pathfind to me and kill me(I would go so far to say that this is a glitch). Now, if i don’t hit the fish, I stand against two subjegators, one veteran, and the spectral guard itself, which wouldn’t be so bad if the fish didn’t spew it’s juice all over the ground, pulsating damage and poison on me.

I am an staff elementalist, relying mostly on dealing damge, but not a full out glass cannon(30/0/10/10/20). I can summon two earth elementals, both of which die together with me within 6 seconds. Nobody is interested in helping me, and most of my guild is asleep. Which makes me wonder, how do you go about soloing this skillpoint? Honestly, I could probably wait until morning when it dawns across more timezones, but I’m curious if you have any idea as how to solo this?

Thanks in advance.

I handled it the same way I handle most multi-mob situations. Start by throwing down Frozen Ground, switch to fire and use lava font then meteor storm (use Arcane Shield while channeling if taking heavy damage), then Lava Font again. Switch to earth and use Eruption + Magnetic Aura. That should have been enough to kill / near kill most enemies.

If you still have trouble you could use healing fields in water, stuns, pushback, mistform to wait out attunement recharges safely, and condition removal via.

Best thing about an Ele is that we have multiple answers to every problem.

As a last resort you could just throw down FGS and demolish everything, swirling through them as they get close.

I do it the way I also do. Run in and dodge a few times, hope my clones take aggro. Mid-commune I’ll hit Mirror Images and then F4 shatter for 3-4s of invuln and finish.

the only time i did it solo it was with a ranger i had to use a revival orb.
though by the time i did it the fish wouldn’t call all the aggro in the labyrinth.
pay attention if you succed killing those mobs because the skill point is a fight, if you are to slow all the mobs you just kill will respawn very soon

use ash legion spy kit o kitten i just realized the one you mean ;c yea that one sucks. i have no helpful insight, i just got lucky with killing mos when i downed

Yah, if you attract all that aggro, I would use ash legion spy kits and try to work my way to the skill point. It doesn’t help completely if the creatures are hitting your area with AOE, but it’s worth having them as a back up method to drop aggro.

Keep in mind the skill poimt is not a commune.

The spy kit sounds like an ingenious plan, hatched by the smartest and most well-educated people in all of Tyria!

Would try it out, but as of yet the area where you can get those is unexplored by me so far. I might just dash to it and get it, though. I’ll see when I’m well rested.

In the meantime, keep up the suggestions, it might help other players just as much as it already has to me

Note, I play a Ranger. I had a somewhat worse time due to my pet running off now and then until I set it to “Heel”. Very slowly and very carefully moving forward and laying waste to anything in the way helped. At the end, there is a spot where you can get waylaid by Risen unintentionally by aggroing them through the walls.

The trick is knowing how fast you might be able to kill that boss from the point. If you can burn something down quick, just lure off those Risen and rush back there to get it down fast.

If you can’t burn it down fast, take those Risen and shave them down to something manageable then go for the point.

Above all? Don’t worry about an exit strategy, the Risen have you covered.

My warrior simply walked in and killed everything so I can’t be of much help

Okay, managed with the help of another warrior. Still, when we hit the rotten fish, everything within the labyrinth went straight for us. This didn’t only happen inside the labyrinth, but also outside. If i were to hit a fish, all risen within a substantial radius would charge me, whereas hitting the risen themselves would not.

Thanks heavens for jolly co-operation.

I’ve only done this 3 times but … what rotten fish? O_o
I am assuming it’s this http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Winterknell_Labyrinth

Rotmouths…those stationary fish-like turret things.

Oh … I was thinking of actual rotten fish like the ones that sometimes show up on the beach to the west of that SP.
