vicky.9751 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) TBH i can see the OP's point.. Every meta event just turns into : stack under a boss and faceroll 1 button. However I don't run the metas unless i need masteries so..... -shrug- Edited December 10, 2021 by vicky.9751 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of them have “run away from the left foot, okay now run back to the left foot” mechanics. 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They go faster if you use your full rotation and you know, I generally want to be out of there faster. I mean AB you have four different mechanics before you can do anything to the "boss" but the real trick of it is killing all four sides at one time. Let's not lump all metas in together with the all you do is stack and press 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirius.4510 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 It does seem a bit silly - I'm not a huge fan of most of GW2's open-world bosses for this reason - but there aren't many good alternatives. A more sophisticated, interesting fight would look pretty similar to a raid. It takes a while to learn how to play raids well enough to beat them, and people will fail a lot at first - that's with a group of 10 people who are interested in learning and improving. When you switch to an open-world environment with 50+ players and no quality control, it's likely they will never be able to beat a raid-style boss because too many are just not playing well enough (for a variety of reasons). Unless you tone down the difficulty of the mechanics to be more forgiving, and then it generally winds up being more efficient to ignore them and facetank them by stacking and spamming boons (sound familiar?).
