Done that meta a couple of times now and have never seen that boss do jumps....too much visual effects and all players around boss make it hard to see anything. The only thing I have noticed is when ground turns into "hot lava" and there are some laser beams boss are using. OP if you have issues with this fight, then take a look where will find two large stone object to hide behind (those spawn during fight and respawn after boss have destroyed them). During that phase when boss will do high damage there will be a white AoE behind those two stones to mark where to stand. Use ranged weapons and skills if possible and/or use teleport/movement skills when this phase will start to move behind those stones in time. Don't try to fight boss for too long time in melee range, so you can get to hide in time. You can't use mount (Skyscale) to stay in air or use any other skills that can block, use Aegis, dodge or any other mitigation here as you need to stand in white AoE to avoid to get hit with a very high damage spike from boss.

The problem OP most likely has isn't the mechanic itself, but the frequency of it. Have done the meta several times now and have this same issue with it. The boss is already a damage sponge; having him go into an invuln phase every 5% just makes the encounter feel worse. Nothing about the encounter is hard, it's just unnecessarily long... Which makes it incredibly tedious.... 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he doesn't do this attack on percentile health intervals, but timed, making the fight last extremely long when dps is bad because of all the extra invulnerability periods compounding things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To clarify: I did not mean he does it specifically at 5% intervals, just that he does it enough that it might as well be every 5%. It's way too frequent, in any event, that it makes the encounter unfun. Especially when you factor in how often the meta occurs.

He does, though. The shockwave from which we are hiding is him slamming into the ground. Whether he is jumping per se or porting away I can't say for sure (as you stated correctly, there are tons of effects covering him).

AliamRationem.5172 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Yeah, I'm really struggling with the lack of creativity. I can only assume it's a consequence of too few resources being devoted to content. Is it asking too much to have a little more inspired encounter design? I guess at this point in the game's life cycle it really is. Disappointing. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugrakarma.9416 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 the atack is on a rotation, for a slower dps zerg is worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trejgon.9367 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) with my runs so far I would say there is definitelly a specific attack pattern he is repeating there. Edited November 12, 2023 by Lord Trejgon.2809 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatihso.7258 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 While you are at it, I’m sure this boss could use a better greatsword than Dragonbash festival one, give him a twilight or something, it’s not like you have to craft to give him Anet. Just do it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even think it's timed, I think it's random. So sometimes you get a lot more than others, even if the dps is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I fight the fellow, he is doing same 3-4 attacks in exact same pattern with the vindicator jump->hide behind the rocks being the last attack in the chain, repeating every chain. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
