Guild Wars 2

Fighting the Grub today, and he died in less than 5m. Usually, takes about an hour with a zerg of 100. I don’t know what happened, but I’m guessing the change in condition stacks caused this. I know a bunch of world bosses got their HP buffed. Please Buff the grub too. He is far too weak now.

Also, in addition to buffing the grub, I am still waiting for Grub mastery to be introduced. I asked for this a long time ago.

Anet pls buff grub grub 2 wek and die n 3 second

I second this, Grub definitely needs a buff.

Killed the grub in under 3 mins with a couple of us, it shows power creep in the game since the patch.

Well that grub was definitely bugged, but still died very fast compared to how it used to be.

Soloed grub once, it was before patch and it took me like 15 minutes on my condi thief.

IKR?! Grub is so casul that now I rather solo claw of jormags for a slight challenge.

I agree, I would like the grub to be like Tequatl, not this scrawny grubby thing that can be soloed on some classes / builds but takes a long time and is difficult, or can be done in a group of 3 people with ease.

this thing needs to have some actual meaning to it. When you accidentally pull the grub you should go “o kitten !!!” instead of meh, grub ….

bump. This issue warrants a response from ANET. It’s definitely game breaking and I can’t comprehend why this issue has not been resolved yet.

Are you guys really complaining about PvE in WvW?

Hipsters being ironic.

Guys even though I like this thread…don’t forget that ANet doesn’t understand sarcasm.
They will give you this kind of stuff. I mean it’s PvE…in a competitive mode…what could go wrong?

I was able to solo the grub in less than 8 minutes on condi warrior before the patch. My best time was ~5 minutes and I averaged around 7.

Grub needs a buff where it downs every player within 1500 range. HOWEVER the plus side will be it will drop mad loot. 20 WvW badges guaranteed. I believe that is the only way Grub will be made relevant again in WvW.

Although it may seem like a sarcastic thread. I actually 100% legit want them to buff the grub. Its mechanics are weak and boring and outdated. It has like two attacks and no condi clears. Even the tiny grubs he spawns should be bumped to at least veteran status. All the other world bosses got their health pool increased but they ignored this one?

They should have deleted it long ago. It makes no sense. It takes (took) too long and overall is just PvE in a competitive gamemode.

I’m predicting anet fixing the grub first before fixing the golem problems.
Pve>wvw since no one plays solely wvw. They must protect the pve aspect of wvw to keep drawing players in.
