Guild Wars 2

i know how to do pretty everything about my role, but 2 things sound new to me:

- focus skill (#5 i guess) to lure hellstorms close to turret so the others kill faster
- port npc right after start ( wut? O__o)

are those things very necessary? i did runs without them effortlessly.
and i’d need a brief explaination about both, anyone can help?

They do cut down a considerably amount of time off your run, yes.

Luring hellstroms, as you mentioned, makes burning them a lot faster since your warriors can deal equal damage to all 3 at once instead of doing the same damage multiple times to multiple separate targets.

Also, the port of the NPC shaves off probably a good 30 seconds from your run, which is substantial when you’re doing multiple runs.

I mean, in the end, having people that cleared out their bags and don’t need to take frequent afks will always, always make a bigger difference (this usually matters more than the profession choice of your group), but when it comes to the run, a good mesmer who knows how to do more than just drop a few time warps and a portal will make a big difference.

Oh, as for an explanation, check out the vid Strife posted:

i’ll see the vid thx both
