Sadgrad.7489 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I play the Labyrinth a lot when there's practically no one else in there. In the past years, if I was somehow not paying attention and accidentally wound up in the Horror's path, I had a decent chance with the speed boosts and stealth in my build to get away from him. Not so much this year. Every time I encounter him, it's instant death. I have no idea if he's been sped up a bit this year because mounts are now allowed in the Labyrinth (which I'm NOT a fan of (different thread)), but what used to be an enjoyable time in the Labyrinth is now just painful and no fun. I'm incredibly sad with whatever caused this change with the Horror. Extremely disappointed. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyokku.5412 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I don't instant die on the horror on glass mesmer. I take a hit and I have a bit of life so I can heal up but also alot of active defense like evades invulnerable aegis blocks and constant heals and condi cleanses so I do okay. Playing HoT or PoF should be enough preparation to not find any content in Halloween to be difficult tbh. For example if you play a Daredevil I'm pretty sure you have enough evades to avoid him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadgrad.7489 Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'm playing the exact same Ranger build I've played for the last three years. I literally only come back to play Guild Wars 2 during this Halloween event and a bit at Christmas. Nothing's changed with my build. I'm sure it's fine with a mob, but I'm hardly ever in game the same time as the Labyrinth trains so, on my own, I'm getting slaughtered by the stupid Horror and that's never happened before.

Oglaf.1074 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Yes that mob is stupidly powerful. If it spawns in the path of the race event, you pretty much cannot complete it because of how it will just insta-rip you off the mount and kill you.

There is even a mastery that will make you invincible while using this sand port ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffball.8307 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 The skimmer special action turns it into --just guessing-- a like 65% uptime on evades. Flying a skimmer through a warzone is like driving a Caddy on a freshly paved boulevard with no traffic and Frank Sinatra comforting your ears.

Khisanth.2948 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I had no problem running from it on foot several times. Make sure you have things to deal with all the cripple and immobilize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
