Guild Wars 2

There are a huge host of other problems with this fight like the god awful camera or the completely random orbs but the biggest flaw to me seems giving the boss an almost perma-cripple in the phase where her AoE doubles in size.

Two my utility skills are already taken up just surviving Phase 1 meaning I only have one space left for a condition removal skill. It has a forty second cooldown. I have to rebuild all my traits to get even a single extra condition remove which leaves me much weaker than it seems I need to be to complete it within the time limit.

For people with only one level 80 character, I ask you PLEASE change this as it is making what should be a challenging but rewarding fight near impossible and incredibly frustrating. I’m ok with a challenge but when the reason I lose is because of negligence for class balance in design, it makes me want to stop playing the game.

You can dodge it

I finally beat her on my engi haver 70+ tries and yes if you don’t have a good class at removing conditions then you are screwed by that cripple on top of that dodging can only help so much without endurance buffs as well.

I say next time the Queen’s Jubilee or this Gauntlet comes around Anet should make a Regular gauntlet and a heroic gauntlet that adds a few skills and other things that make the fights more challenging. Both could offer a unique reward for completing them and it would ease players into the gauntlet a lot better for those who struggled with it. Plus with gambits on top of that and the amount of time Anet has to learn before the next Jubilee they could really do some interesting stuff with the concept.

They also need to design the arena’s better so the camera is not an issue. Repair costs an dying need to go away i don’t mind the falling threw the floor when you run out of time but their is no need to die and have to pay repairs for a event that’s supposed to be fun. Less downtime in between each arena would be nice too maybe make it keep going till you fail. Walking back after each arena fail was just annoying and made the gauntlet itself less appealing overall.

That being said liara could use some balancing for all classes though and the fact that her orbs and lights are random spawns isn’t good as that makes luck a bigger factor than it should be(unless of course i missed something non random about them).

You can dodge it

There is a literal limit to how much I can dodge more than half the room being covered in AoE, multiple one hit kill adds and now perma-cripple.

There is a pattern to how the aoe works it rotates sections of the room u can outrun it

If you’re having issues with her Cripple, then use a Bowl Lemongrass Poultry Soup.

Yes but because of cripple, dodging a boss, killing orbs and trying to avoid one hit kill adds, it’s not always possible to get to the safe zone on time.

Then, you have to dodge and as soon as you have to start dodging, the whole thing falls apart because you’re vulnerable to perma-cripple.

Every class has a way to remove cripple, use it.
