This is one of the “new” battle mechanics that they absolutely have to refine. It’s very clunky to fight using those crystals. So annoying.

Pretty sure everyone has said this, I know I did, but I’ll say it again.

You. Do. Not. Need. The. Crystals. At. All.

That seems to have changed. You 100% need them now. I tried repeating the story and spent 10 minutes without getting one blow to hit when he went into his shield.

Let me rephrase that. You do not need the crystals to jump to him at all. You always needed to grab the sun crystal to break through his shield. I was saying that in response to the complaints about the “need” to platform to fight him.

Which seems to be impossible for me now since he puts his shield up on the smallest platform in the area and pushes me back at least 2 times a second and throws grenades like crazy. I did beat did beat him 1 time after finding the ramp and that fight seemed much easier than it is now. I think anet made this fight harder with one of the updates.

I just tried this again and the same thing happens on platform. It does not seem like a bug to me. This fight is very much harder if not impossible now.

I finally killed Aerin the other morning but I’m trying to do story again and now it seems like Aerin is impossible to kill. He goes into his shield up on the platforms and will not let you get near him to break it. He pushes you back at least 2 times a second and throws his grenades just as fast.

I don’t guess I’ll be doing much of season 2 living story then because I have nothing but trouble with any jumping. Especially here with what seems like a dozen worms around.

I have tried this part 3 times and can get no farther than taking the shields off. After that it’s an endless battle with worms and no sign of Aerin at all.

The megaservers are nice. They make exploring less popular maps like Snowden Drifts and Brisban Wildlands much more fun. It is very nice seeing events on these maps actually get done now. However they don’t really need to be in the cities or in the more popular maps such as Queensdale or in Orr where the temples are.

Losing the spider really did not change the train on Queensdale very much. Our server now does the bandit instead.

This wont be fixed at least for 12 hours. It’s too late in the evening now.

I’m having the same problem now. Things worked fine for a while but suddenly quit. I tried to whisper someone and got message the they were not online but I saw them moving in the game.

Probably maps like Iron Marches and Timberline Falls. All the 1-15 maps should stay out of megaservers for now.

Those vistas are impossible now. I just tried 4 of them and cant get close. Jumping does no good.

That event is not possible right now. No matter how many people do this event those 3 workers just seem to vanish. And If you do happen to finish the event no credit is given.

The zerg on Borlis Pass can kill all 3 of the bosses with no problem. The Lich does take quite a while though. The Viscount died a good bit quicker than the Lich even though players in the zerg said he was harder to beat.

I just saw those 2 new bosses tonight and I thought the Lich was harder and took longer to kill.. I was staying well back from the Viscount with a GS Mesmer. Besides dying only 1 time when I got too close to him I was never really in any danger. The Lich killed me several times and I saw 10-15 defeated players when I first approached it.

I can’t reach the scoured plains either and I could not find the way there using the shipwreck. I tried the shipwreck before starting this thread. The entire Bakestone Cavern area and the plains are off limits to me and cant be reached.

I’ve looked everywhere and can not access this waypoint, or a huge part of this map.

Hm sad,I would argue that is because it is in the starting area but the same thing goes for the fire elemental.
They should also make him stronger AND give him more life. Also give the portals more life so that he can make some moves.

It is early though. I look for this to scale up this evening when more people are on and the chests reset. I Still don’t think he’ll ever be failed though.

Shadow Behomoth just came up on Borlis Pass and still dropped in less than 2 minutes. Saw now change to him except for the timer.

I know what button press but you have to be almost perfect to land where you want to. Spending 30 minutes trying to get to a vista in a low level area isn’t much fun.

This game needs jumping made easier or taken out except maybe for the jumping puzzles.

I have never had much trouble killing Doc Howler. And never had to change builds or weapons to deal with her either.

Yep it looks like a bug. Should be fixed later today.

How is this skillpoint reached?

How is this skillpoint reached?

This new wallet is great. It will certainly save me many trips to the bank meaning more time to play the game.

For me the class most fun to play is my Mesmer since I started using the greatsword. The least fun are my thief and my engineer. I just cant seem to find a good way to play them and have fun for some reason.

Is there another way to defeat the undead siege engines besides using the trebuchets. I cant figure out how to use them meaning I cant complete the mission.

Finally got this skillpoint. Thanks for the pics.

I think I found where to jump but still can only get this close to that skillpoint.

I have looked everywhere and cannot find any way to reach this skillpoint.

It did finally complete after trying 2 more times. It’s probably not a repeatable problem but only a minor glitch.

I finally got it to complete after trying again 2 times. Before then it would stop after the 2nd part of the contest was over. All I got was cheering for about 2 mins. The 3rd contestant would not be introduced.

The drinking contest will not go to the 3rd round and thus the mission cant be completed.

I love the greatsword. Without it I’d probably delete my Mesmer, but with it I love her. It makes archers much easier for me to deal with and can cause damage to melee enemies before they get close up on me.

For one thing the Norn and Charr missions are too hard and need to be toned down. I haven’t tried Asura or Sylvari yet and am scared to. I’ve took 8 human characters through the level 1-30 section of the story without too many problems, but have had to delete a Charr and a Norm because of impossible to complete missions. The Charr at level 8 and my Norn at level 22.

Just saw a video of the mission being done by a guy SIX levels above the recommend level 22 and was a guardian and he had trouble with this mission. To me that means the mission is extremely unbalanced. Going to delete this character too since these missions are so impossible to complete. The charr and norm missions are way too hard at this time and i’ll not be making any more of them.

This mission is impossible for my level 22 Mesmer to complete with the weapons and armor up to date. I’m using a greatsword and a sword and pistol combo. The problem is at the end after you find the weapon and have to kill the dredge. They spawn like crazy there and kill my only ally right off leaving me to face 6-7 dredge including the powerful mining suit alone. The end of this mission needs to be toned WAY WAY WAY down.

I’m not sure but I may have had 1 or 2 pieces of armor from those karma vendors. I do know that later in the game completing the hearts is vital. I’ve picked up many armor pieces and great weapons that way.

I was a level 8 thief and was using a dagger and pistol. I had not bought any armor and was using only what I picked up in battle. After meeting Gnarl Snagtooth I had trouble with the flame legion waves that come out. The first wave comes out without any kind of warning and knocks me back taking most of my health before I can get a single blow in. The fire imps are especially strong and at one point it was just me and 7-8 enemies. You have no chance to revive allies.

It was even worse at the end trying to kill the boss. He is hard enough alone, but always had 5-6 fire imps around and it seemed like more of them spawned as that battle went on. Of course by the time I got to the boss my armor was gone because I had been defeated so many times earlier. Your allies fall quickly here too and you have no chance of ever reviving them.

Character deleted. Tried mission again and getting nowhere. Never will make another charr either.

Any hints on how to do this. Right now it is impossible for my thief to do it. Got killed 10 times at first part and then find the second part to be even harder so I gave up and quit. The waves need to be toned WAY DOWN in this mission.

I’m a warrior and am level 30. I finally did beat him by the slimmest of margins by actually staying fairly close up to him.

Can anyone give me some tips for this. The guy at the end of this is impossible for me to kill. I have tried this over 10 times and also cant get anyone in the game to help me with it.

I went back and found the stairs again but there is simply not a way across. I tried jumping but just ended back on the ground every time. It’s unreachable for me even if I had help.

I think I found the stairs before I made the post above but have no clue about any of the jumping puzzles so this one skillpoint I’ll never get.

I’ve spent 30 minutes trying to reach this skillpoint but cant find it or the viewing area.

I just completed the “Rescue the villigers and defeat harpy kidnappers” event with someone and at least expected the bronze reward since I rescued 2 of the prisoners and killed many harpies there but got nothing.

I’m sorry about this thread but I was upset when I made it after playing my Mesmer for hours yesterday and not being able to make much progress with it. I didn’t know about using the 2 handed sword which has done so much for me since I equipped one last night. That sword has changed things dramatically and made my Mesmer much easier and fun to play. I’ve got her up to lvl 30 now and so far things are going much better being able to start fights with my 2 handed sword and then changing to my sword and pistol when things get in close.

I’ve got my Mesmer up to lvl 23 now and just realized that I could equip her with a 2 handed great sword and get the skills I’ve been looking for. Can finally deal with archers and can stand back out of the fight. Guess maybe I need to look at the wiki more often.
