This makes me sad.
+1.
Extremely disappointed in the direction Arenanet is taking here.
To those that argue there is skill involved – Enjoy your delusions.
The numbers are far too cooked in the NPC’s favor to suggest you have any reasonable chance based on skill. The fact that the NPC isn’t tied to the same rules that you are is proof enough of this. Oh, I can only use a special skill once in a match, but Adnul can do it as often as he likes? Yeah, its simply broken.
I love GW2, been playing every day since launch, and I enjoy hard content… but Arenanet isn’t infallible, and Adnul is a cheater beyond being broken.
We actually have a world boss event that FEELS like a world boss event and we get people who complain its too hard.
I’m sorry, maybe these people should learn to play as a team. Or maybe use their skills that block/reflect ranged attacks, and along with that learn to use them at the right time. Or use their invulnerability/blocks. Each profession has something to handle this.
If people would stop comparing this content to centaurs in kessex hills then they’d realize that they aren’t supposed to just rush in and unleash the heat so to speak.
For heavens sake, if its too hard for you then don’t go there, there are 20 other easy areas to play in. Leave the hard content for people who enjoy it or are willing to learn to best it.
This event is the most fun I’ve had in GW2 in a while. Bring on the challenges! Bring on zergs of mobs that will destroy a stupid player zerg!
I’ve died plenty of times to a barrage of karka hits or reefe riders, and you know what? Every time it was my own fault!
Keep it as it is.

I’m glad to hear this is a recent issue. I just did this story event today and after much difficulty/annoyance, I finally finished it. I was beside myself thinking that something that broken could have persisted since launch; I even stopped in the middle of the chaos and submitted a bug report on it.
It’s a skill given by the mad king costume.
Agreed.
I have my camera almost all the way to the left.
I never had a problem with the camera in the JP.
A small minority of players are “screaming.” And thats it. I see just as many people replying on these threads saying its fine the way it is. Besides, a few dozen people doth not a majority make.
I am sorry to hear the OP feels this way. Unfortunately this brings up the question of how to you make challenging content for the players that want challenging content while at the same time making it available to people with reflex related problems?
Holiday events are just like holidays, they come and they go. They can’t always stick around or they wouldn’t be memorable anymore. The epicness of it would be none existant.
ArenaNet has done an amazing job at bringing new content of all levels of difficulty for players. I think they are doing their best to make as many people happy as possible. There are soooo many other things to enjoy about the game, let alone the halloween festivities, try to see all the positives rather than let this one ruin everything.
I finished it 7 times across 5 characters, norn/asura/huma/sylvari – in the midst of a dozen other players of all sizes. You do it enough times and you start to feel when its time to jump regardless if you can see yourself or not.
Its like riding a bike. You might fall a few times (or in this case a couple hundred) but once you get the feel of it it is simple; almost trivial.
Nothing is wrong with the puzzle as is. /my 2c
Its not always about making money.
Why is it that ArenaNet is suddenly made the bad guy simply because they underestimated how popular a skin would be? Are there really no alternative reasons behind this whole debacle other then ArenaNet has become greedy? At one point does a company become responsible for customers who have rediculous expectations or poor lack of self control?
Am I the only one that ever planned out something I thought would be a “fun” only to have it turn out totally different?
/sigh
/nod – bugged
Hopefully everyone who hits it is submitting bug reports on it.
