Guild Wars 2

This is a typical Commune SP challenge, with a veteran guarding it. So I kill the vet spider and his adds… Immediately, an even bigger vet cave spider spawns… And an event starts to kill it. But I think this things health is bugged — it’s got champion level HPs. Five minutes of kiting and it’s still above 50%. Eventually I just de-aggroed, summoned my flesh golem to distract it and grabbed the skill point while it was occupied.

Yeah, this thing is annoying. If you are alone and have no pets to tank it, there’s just no way to get it. Kited the spider for 10 minutes straight, didn’t get it below 70%. Then I got rootet and twoshotted.

It doesn’t seem like a bug, unless the bug is that the second veteran has the wrong label. It’s also not always there.

I’ve only fought it once, the warrior with me used Battle Standard 2 or 3 times which mean a fight duration of 8 to 12 minutes. Maybe more if he didn’t use it as soon as it was available each time.

Thanks for this tip. Otherwise I doubt I’d have gotten it.
