Guild Wars 2

Just tried to skip mobs in Arah p1 from Lupicus to the last boss and I got almost to the Gorilla boss. Is it supposed to be possible? The warrior, guardian and mesmer all managed to do it. I tried using Spectral Walk, Signet of the Locust, Spectral Wall and Plague, but I didn’t lose any mobs so I just got slowed down and chilled or crippled.

Never specifically tried it on Arah, but I am generally very able of skipping mobs, even in areas where it is really challenging. Lots of movement speed stuff, plus the second you get hit with anything and lose your ooc speed, start dropping your stuff. Reaper’s mark, Spectral Wall, Chillblains, Scepter 2, Axe 3, whatever you have drop it, and drop it over time not all at once.

Hilariously, the bit including the gorilla boss had everyone but me unable to skip the mobs with ease last time I did it. Part of that was people not bringing the right skills, part of it was that I would just tank through the fireballs.

Still not entirely sure how the necro had the easiest time skipping that segment.

It’s been a while ago but when I did the Jotun path I could easily pass all mobs from the Lupicus up untill the last boss even past the spider room and I did it multiple times. I don’t think it should be too hard.

Quite easy to skip, just make sure to be the first one to go/ask the guys if you could get a little headstart since if they pull all the mobs onto you, no profession without long charges/blinks/stealth can run past any group of mobs in arah.

I’ve never had trouble skipping mobs as a necro, not even in Arah. Just use Spectral Walk as a speed boost, and if you get a condition on you like chilled, or crippled, drop a well of power and cleanse them all instantly. I might also drop a mark to fear enemies away that are chasing me. If all else fails, Death Shroud or Plague Form to get away.

Well of power is good for skipping. I tend to take spectral walk, well of power, locust signet and plague form. Shouldnt really need any of them except spectral if your careful. Also if you’ve been hit and are in combat, you may aswell dark path + doom a mob in front of you. It increases the gap from the mobs behind you and cc’s the mob you teleported to so its not hard to escape him aswell.

I use Flesh Wurm as a shadow step, locust, and walk. I use a lot of Scepter 2, astaff 3 and 5, and DS 3 when possible

Spectral walk, well of darkness, Spectrall wall, and if you continue to fail, use Plague 32323232323232323232, if you continue to fail, Unistal plz.

I personally wouldn’t use Flesh Wurm for running though. By the time you’ve finished casting, you’ve pretty much already reached the location of the flesh wurm, if you’re running while casting. Spectral Wall is great though. Nothing will follow you through that. Just drop it in front of you, so you get the protection, and you’ll easily lose pursuing baddies.

But Spectral Walk and DS are pretty much the only thing you need.

this, + remember yo can use plague just for the stability with bliding/creepling and if you got 10 points in curses you can get the trait that you chill when you blind.

Remember this for this class and anyone, ive guardian, mesmer, thief and necro, there isnt a standard ’’something’’ in you bar/traits, swap them for every situation you face.

like how i do on ara lupi on guardian, i use a hammer for worms, and staff for empowering mates, but when iknow its going to swith to phase 2, i go back, swap hammer for scepcer/shiel/focus and return the fight and faceroll lupi, play with every skill you got as utility everyone of them are there cause they ‘’have an utility for ’’something’’ ’’someday’’ ‘’in some situation’’.

Then get full soldier armor

I was doing Arah path 3 last night, and we had some issues with the chicken script stalling (probably because we ran ahead of the npc too fast, causing some scripts to not trigger). We eventually got it working by backtracking, but this meant running through corridors of enemies several times, including those spiders.

The first time around I got by with just Spectral Walk and a few dodges. They didn’t seem to target me, since I wasn’t the first one running in.

The second time around I got hit by a few cripples. Well of Power instantly cleansed those. And I used Death Shroud when some of the damage started ticking a bit too hard. Some spiders were still in pursuit, so I dropped a mark, and feared them to get some distance between us. Worked pretty simple.

sorry had to brag.
