Warrior - Shield block team dynamic

So my usual strategy, as a Warrior, for the AC path 1/3 lizard bosses is to use shield block to block the heavy damage scream projectile. The other day, I was doing this as a teammate was standing behind me and I noticed that he still went down even though I was in front of him blocking.

My suggestion is to have either a rectangular or conical region behind a warrior where other team members can stand when shield block is up to prevent damage. To keep things balanced, I would have it work the same way the guardian bubble does (prevents only projectile damage).

Warriors can also be specced to be fairly tanky, and this change would definitely reinforce that. Not to mention, it would take advantage of that sweet blocking animation. :P

Skipping Kholer. Not on.

Kholer is considered a bonus event that offers a chest and a central wp as a reward.

I personally skip him in all groups I play in (unless a troll pops up, because free chests are always nice) since, with the limited time I have to play every day, I’d rather have more time to do other dungeon speed runs and other dailies in general.

In fact, I tend to skip pretty much every group of monsters that is not required to proceed usually by running past them (including the spiders at the beginning). Our runs tend to take around 25-30 mins for all three paths.
