Guild Wars 2

@Negrul I died constantly in this boss (the first 2 times I fighted it we left without completing the path, true that we didn’t know the boss and it was really late and we went to try), some days you are more lucky and some others not so much. It’s true that I’m talking this easy because I always go to Arah with my friends, we know each other, we help a lot each other, and it’s more easy that way because we also have TS.

But I also went to dungeons with people PUG, and what I don’t think is right is that you go to a dungeon with people that doesn’t heal/help/revive etc because if YOU die you can use the WP…. Is a good way for people like that to see that they are working with a group and they have to help that group not just kill/kill and don’t care for anything more.

That is why I really like this new system, and I find it more fun. That doesn’t mean I didn’t die other days, in other (more easy than Lupicus) dungeons.

I’m with what @haviz said to Negrul XD.

About what George Steel did or not… I don’t know, like I said I’m a total noob with Lupicus, so… no comments.

I did it before the patch enough times to say that we didn’t have any problem, the video from route 1 (going Melee) is from before the patch, and like you can see, yes one of our party members fell once but we revived it fast and in general it was really easy. It may be true that your team mates may have something to do with it being more difficult. I don’t know :S

I’m with you two @alemfi @haviz, I had (and I was down) more times in Phase 3 than in Phase 2, almost died when he went down, got lucky! XD.
But it was the stupid bubbles, I don’t remember him doing it so often, in one moment he threw at me 2 bubbles one after another (got lucky and survived the two times).

Like you I don’t know if something changed, but like I said I really like what they did with the patch the better the challenge the more fun we have (or so my friends and I think about this)

Difficult, really? We thought that he was difficult in route 3 because we didn’t do it right. Path 1 is really easy.

Melee be careful to heal if needed and no problem at all.

Until we saw how it worked in route three (the first round I was the last one standing and running like crazy until I killed it because I didn’t know how the AoE worked) But is really easy.

Even more easy if you are not the one targeted by the ice/earth AoE (in round 2, you can see it in the video I didn’t move at all) But in round 3 we have to work a little more (This time I really had to move T_T XD), but relatively easy (and like you can see I’m just an average player XD), and I found it good-easy:

What I really don’t like from Route 3 is the experimental Subject. I HATE that boss, is almost endless T_T Some tips for that boss? (something to make it possible to kill it faster?)

First of all sorry for my english (but I wanted to share this in the english forum as well)

With this video I only want to share or first experience with Lupicus after the patch with NO Waypoint.

So please, the people that will only comment saying what a bad/awful/crap etc elementalist I am… please, refrain from doing it and thanks. That doesn’t mean that any comment that will help me improve my ele will not be well received. You may think, what is she talking about? I’m saying this because I died A LOT (I don’t know but this boss for me is… T_T I don’t die this much usually) and also I was doing it S/F for the first time, to change and see if it’s better than with my staff (like you can see a lot of Out of range! :S).

In this video we are 4 (including me) friends of my clan with some random guy we found in front of the arah dungeon, what we didn’t know is that this guy only fighted Lupicus once and we have to explain it when we got there because when we asked first he didn’t say anything XD. He really did a great work ^^

We are not experts/pro or how you call it (like I said my english really needs some improvement XD), and we only did Arah, I think that 9 times before this one. And the first 2 times, we died constantly (we went to try, no people with experience in our party, the same one you see in the video except the random guy) and left without completing it (really late in the morning almost 4-5 am). But lately we completed it in the first try or after 2 o 3 times dying.

So when we read about the new patch where you CAN’T USE WP to get back to battle etc we were complaining about it, and yesterday night, when we decided to go try Lupicus we went with “Losing and death everywhere” in mind, and that we would have to leave without compliting the route.

So imagine our surprise when we fighted and killed it the first try, good team work, one fighting Lupicus while others doing ress etc, I was like: O_O Good one guys! And we have a lot of fun and found it a really great challenge. Maybe they made it more easy or something, I hope not, but we did it, and I’m happy

So with all this ramble what I want to say is that I find more fun and interesting and makes us work harder with the NO WP option if you die, and it will also be a good example for those parties/party members (I found a few ¬¬) that doesn’t even care to TRY to ress you or heal you because “Oh, pal go to the WP and come back fast” and more than one, some of them almost steping on me!!!!!, didn’t even bother to TRY to push F (or wathever button you have to revive) ¬¬ And I say this because I saw on the map chat a lot of people constantly complaining about this new change.

So I really like this new patch, more challenging, fun and a good lesson for those kind of people that unfortunately, not really a lot (thankfully) but they exist and I had the… misfortune to be in some of those parties in some dungeons and worst in some fractals than doesn’t understand about team work. I also have to say that is true that sometimes there are a bunch of people that doesn’t know how to play and constantly having to revive or help that person or group of person is… not really helpful and funny. But I’m talking about the others, those that only attack and attack and only cares about themself and doesn’t even bother to help other party members with the “come fast using WP” and let you die.

What I think they should change now, after the patch, is that in dungeons we should have back the option to ress completely dead party members with glyphs, because like you can see in the video we could do it, rise them completely dead but because it was phase 3 and one friend lured Lupicus and the others meanwhile revived them. But if that happens in phase 2 lol I think it’s really MORE difficult with all the AoE and those projectils.

So if you have to change something, please put back the option to revive completely dead party members with glyphs.

About other dungeons, yeah, we die sometimes, but we don’t have problems completing them. So I hope that because a group of people began to cry and complain about being more difficult, impossible etc with the No WP option if the party members are in combat… well, they will not change it because of them. Because if you really have a good team work, is really fun and a great challenge. And even more for those people that do dungeons constantly and daily and this way it will be like a new experience (depending on the party members they have XD) for them. Or so I think.

Thanks for taking the time to read and/or watch the video

I am usually one of the last party members standing with our guardian (I’m talking about the group of 5 in my guild and everyday we do 1 dungeon, or a fractal before going or own way, we are a Guardian, Warrior, Ranger, Mesmer and me-Ele) sometimes even in fractals (with low level of agony) we ended fighting the boss the two of us alone.

What I don’t understand then is comments about, Eles are kitten, they are a NO for dungeons and Fractals.

And I found people telling me “you USE this hability, DO this etc” every fight or boss you find in the dungeon, when I fighted it time again and again with my guild friends and we normally don’t die, or die few times, and you know you are not doing anything wrong, you’re the one dying less compared even to that person etc"

Ok. True I’m always open to constructive opinion if it helps me to improve my ele, no people bossing me around, that’s why when I find parties with people like that and all the time is calling other party members (be warrior, guardian, mesmes, ranger etc) names and insulting and saying their useless and fools is like ¬¬ Who do you think you are? I really want to leave the group, and sometimes I did. Because the most useless is THAT person because he thinks he’s the best and is just as bad as he’s saying about others,. and the funny part es when he dies and he blames those people instead of seeing the true, that he is the useless one. And I found that with guardians and warriors. They don’t know how to use them and is better to blame the Ele or that range or anyone else ¬¬ (XD)

So that’s why I think you should play the way you want, you will be better or worst than others, but thinking that “Well, I’ll go with those traits and those stats because that way people will find me useful and I’ll find more parties” I don’t know, all the builds I saw and the posts on forums I found, are totally different from my build, and they say that is perfect for pve or for pvp, but I don’t care, I like my ele, how I play it I have fun, you should do the same and pass doing dungeons and anything with that kind of people telling you that you are bad or not inviting you because you’re ele.

I’m only posting my opinion or my experience doing things with people outside my guild. And really, this is a game, is supossed to be something to play and have fun, or not?

Sorry for my english :S
