Guild Wars 2

Seriously, this is horrid.

im on my guardian spamming 1k sceptre attacks, which most dont even land because eir is out range, so just me running around in circles. jumping over fire, slowly chiseling away, in order to defeat eir and pale tree is pretty much the same thing. both of which takes an unreasonable amount of time imo.

finally get to mord and the game yells for me to take to the skies….but you cant jump off platform. its some updraft that you can barely even see, let alone recognize that
the draft is somewhere on the floor.

this is story chapter is horrendous and stupendously awful in terms of it design. apparently im not supposed to play melee in this game, at least thats my interpretation.

im all for challenging content but this pathetic.

not to mention that my armor is broken after the first down and i cant even portal to repair it unless i log off in order to get out of the chapter.

there, ive ranted. now will someone, at least, please tell me how to waypoint out of there?

ps. otherwise enjoying the game.

The fight is bugged in someway but it not that bad and why the hell you using scepter in that fight ? Seriously i completed that mission with my guardian/DH more easier than any other class in my family.

For the updraft there’s alway an updraft at our allies shielding ( braham’s blue dome ) location, if you don’t know where are those draft at just run to braham, there is alway a draft at him.

I had the same problem in the first time i do that quest too on my rev, the updraft phase caused me a bit trouble but then i found a way to avoid rocks etc everything much easier.

you have to kill eirs wolf then attack her when she runs to him
it seems like you just didnt bother to read (i think one of the npcs tells you to attack the wolf) or look at mechanics if you couldnt find that out…

and the updrafts are clearly visible to me

there are a few bugs (like platforms not lifting up fast enough after failure but that can easily be avoided by waiting 10 sec before reentering) and some classes may have advantages over others but i think it is definitly doable

and if you need help with pale tree fight for example why dont you ask a friend/guildie or just make a lfg so someone helps you with these fights?
shouldnt be a problem then

I’ve not gotten to this phase yet so your comments will be helpful to me. I read the script and listen to the NPCs when they say things because there is always some direction noted. It took me a while to catch on to that and then I had that “slap forehead” moment.

But, as for seeing updrafts, they are not always visible on my screen…I find it difficult to see unless I set my graphics to adjust for that and then my fps lag kicks in.

But I do feel a lot of small things in the HoT stories could have been designed a bit better and definitely Anet’t Q&A team needed to actually test it on real server instead of test server. Makes a world of difference when trying to catch any bugs.
