Awayne.5783 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I went into the chapter 16 living story solo and was going to do it. I made 1 mistake 30 minutes later and died and the WHOLE thing reset. Usually in a LS if you die it lets you spawn and take over where you left off ( just with damaged armor). Why did LS HOT Ch 16 hearts and minds do that to me? :( I was pretty ticked about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconReaper.5719 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Its not an issue, that was before there was no checkpoints. But if you mean dying in one of the 3 fights and the fight resets? That's on purpose, to make it hard. Its solo-able but its hard if you don't have the right build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReaverKane.7598 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Well, when you die all boss fights usually reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn't true in more recent storyline episodes and even some open world bosses (PoF bounties, for example). I expect this was ANet's way of designing more challenging encounters without making it impossible to complete for less skilled players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And really, bounties don't reset when everyone wipes? I know it isn't. I was replying to your comment: "Well, when you die all boss fights usually reset." Perhaps the expectation of checkpoints or bosses not resetting came from more recent content? And yes, PoF bounty bosses do not reset their health bar when there are no players left alive. You can die and run back as much as you like. However, you only have 10 minutes to defeat these bosses before they despawn and the bounty goes on cooldown.

I guess i misspoke on my first post, should have been "when you die most bosses usually reset" instead of "all". TBH i wasn't even really aware that they don't reset in recent story modes... Never needed it, and always worked under the assumption that they did. Also, the only time i think i died on a story boss recently (the Devourer of souls i think he's called? That guy you have to fight in order to return to life after Balth kills you) he did reset. Never realized that bounties don't reset... Nice!

Kilamanjaro.2705 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 This story chapter is just like everything else in the game. Run a ranged condi in trailblazer gear of any class/ Otherwise, get in a party with one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
