The eye seriously needs a speed boost, everything is spaced too far away.

not to forget the fact that the trait is in the blood magic line.

You forgot Reaper. But they are kind of low damage, but very good for open world content and personal story.

Gone as well.

dont worry about it. You get the skimmer and springer fairly fast in the pof story. And jackal doesnt take too much time to unlock. Though the griffon is pretty much the only outlier. And skyscale have only been added to the later mountpacks.

Also, you can buy choice mount licenses, allowing you pick the one you want. But is more expensive than the random one.

As I see it, the Eye of the North's -only- benefit is fast access to strikes

I cant imagine that all the coniviences once built will be fairly close to each other, but spread out among the huge room. Which already is a chore to traverse due to lack of mounts. If anything, enabling the speedboost from the capitals would go a long way at minimizing that.

Why did the bland Suns refuge get a portal scroll when the eye didnt? Mindboggling, since the eye is a place they clearly want people to return to. Plus its quite easy to overlook on the worldmap, the map being quite tiny.

So far I think the VIP area in divinitys reachs or the mistlock is far superior with everything close together. The later can even send you back to where you were.

Regarding the Skyscale, it is a long term goal to aquire one. The griffon is arguably much easier to get, but require a more front up gold payment of 250g spread over several collections.

Yeah, that was what I unintentionally did to kill him. Very confusing fight. I wonder if other lifesteal effects can hurt Canach despite his imunity.

> I've already read that in other threads, but I don't think thats the problem with me, because, normally, even if you don't complete the story, when you join the instance it changes according to the things that you have to do inside the instance, but my personal story keeps telling me to go to Scrying Pool, even though I'm already inside the instance...

And so it did for me. It did not update until the end, where Bangar came to talk with the warband. It is the same problem.

It is hard when people doesnt understand what to do. But definitely one of the more difficult strike bosses. Maybe too difficult given the sheer time it takes to reach it.

Its not bugged, the strike is the story instance. The thing is that the story only progresses when you go upwards after looting the chests. Then Bangar will appear and talk to the warband. Then it completes. Very unintuitive.

done it four times, 3 was fast successes. But the fourth? Horrid and exactly as the op describes. A constant overload of enemies and low health tank

> you are talking about forged steel achivement right ? i got the same problem

No, what I were talking about is the story step Forged Steel, that needed to finish the strike. But unintuitive how to complete it properly, having to go further for a dialogue post chest loot.

I am a necromancer and couldnt figure out how to damage him. But when I got downed, I noticed that my lifeleech downstate skill could damage him, and eventually finished the encounter by lifestealling him down.

Yep, absolutely not intuitive.

after the chests, move further up. Bangar will come and talk to the group. Only -then- it completes.

might help if you actually said what the problem is.

Seems the problem was waiting for dialogue -post- getting the reward chests unintuitive.

Ive done the Forging Steel strike two times now, its still not progressing

......thats facepalm worthy...

Bypassed everything at the time, thanks to a mesmer portaling ppl.

Mounts makes hot completely trivial. Especially the skyscale. And it seriously doesnt take that long to unlock all masteries. Especially if youve kept up to date on living world episodes that adds a huge load.

The mount is a prestige mount. You can complete the game without it. You can get everywere with existing mounts. Its a long term goal, and you only need to do it once. Newcomers should experience the world in the proper way, instead of just ignoring every obstacle.

Considering the jade sea turned back into water again, there might not be a lore reason for a return of it.

Wishlisting is whislisting and clickbait.

Ritualist is the most obvious thing to come.
