Heibi.4251 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Did the new strike mission and here are a few observations:Little to no mechanics. We were able to almost stand there and DPS with no repercussions.Easier than both the first two strike missions in Bjora.Ways to improve:Make the mechanics mean somethingUp the difficulty a littleThis is for strike missions overall - If the strike missions are supposed to be harder with each addition then care needs to be done to make sure that that happens. Don't go over the top and make them Raid Wing style, but at least try to make them challenging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 The belief is it is bugged. Given the comments on Guild Chat, this mission doesn't line up at all with the things they said. I expect a patch soon to fix itThe others are perfect - I don't want to see those touched except medal rewards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragi.7291 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I really hope it's buggy because on my fight, the boss jumped twice in the fight it lasted 1min+ and that's it.It was supposed to be the most difficult according to the developers, limit I thought hitting the training golem, it almost didn't move and did nothing.Very deceived.

LucianDK.8615 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Definitely an underwhelming fight, the easiest of the 3. Only missed gold on first fight due to people being unable to pay attention to the torches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our fight was straight dps and a couple of cc breaksDidnt you see the torches around the fight arena? The tooltip said that the boneskinner would be hindered by them, and it would regularilly send shadows out to extinguish them, and you had to relight them. Quite alike the Shadow of the Dragon fight in the final ls2 episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crepuscular.9047 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 yeah, it's so stupidly easy, even an Awakened Canid was more difficult than it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucianDK.8615 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I can only believe they flubbed it and its bugged. Just like the world boneskinner was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrilana.1396 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Fixes/changes are planned for the boneskinner but nothing more about when that will be. Since they tend to pool together all non-critical updates, we likely won't see a fix until the 17th at the earliest.On another note, firebrand and renegade can duo it.

Quite alike the Shadow of the Dragon fight in the final ls2 episode.If that existed it never came up. It died after about a minute/90 seconds of pounding. Saw no torches at all.The idea sounds cool though, so Im guessing broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's listed under Fractals, Dungeons and Raids.Ye I know its not clear where strikes fall under so I put it at dungeon/fractal and raid as other topics bout strikes were there and its also instanced boss content (and a training thing for raids according anet). Seemed only logical ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysty Meadows.1425 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Boring. Plain and simple. How it was let out of testing escapes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
