How many players needed to confront World Bosses in Wrothgar?

Caroloces · February 2016

I know the answer varies depending upon player levels and skills, so I guess what's the typical group size for confronting these bosses?

Depends on the world boss. Beat some with 2 but more the merrier

Shunravi · February 2016

1 flawless conqueror
Or
2 stormproof
Or
4 boethia's sythes/deadlands explorers
Or
5-15 pugs

ostrapz · February 2016

I've beaten some weaker 1s with 3 and some work. Some like the dragon can take about 8 people

xerasia · February 2016

I've found 4-6 to be adequate.

I usually wind up with one other player running along side me when I head into taking down a World boss in Wrothgar.Although there are a few that has a ton of minions that are rough to remove alone.At least two dungeons are rough enough to take a pal with you,..or two.

Dito.

I know a few people who have solo'd them, but that's pretty rare. I can normally two man them with a mate, but it's hard. The more the merrier I say.

I think it depends on the boss mechanics. I've never seen Zandodunaz go down with less than 6-8 people. As long as you have 1 or 2 people taking care of those portals, everyone else should be dps. Same with Old Snagara, the riekr king, and the ice ogre guy, I forget the names. In those cases, the adds can get nasty, so the more the merrier as said above.

The others though, the dwarven centurion guy and the hagraven guy (omg why can't I remember their damn names) I've done with just myself and one other player. Good times.

6 is usually plenty when you're doing them with people from zone chat unless they're all new. Goes a little faster with more.

Nadar · June 2016

I prefer doing them as a team of 2. Presents a good challenge that is difficult to find elsewhere. Best thing doing them with just 2 is that it helps hone some skills and penalizes you if you get sloppy (although when the LAG boss decides to join in, you have little backup so you feel it).

UD is usually the hardest as you are getting chased by the suicide sappers while avoiding the mass of AOE.
EDU can give it a good run in difficulty but only because of the lag introduced as it is so close to a zone border (the city) although that seems to be much better now.
Poacher and MAD are fine as long as you take out the healers quickly
NYZ is frustrating only because of the reflecting shield that can cause it to be slow to complete.
NB is probably the easiest.

4-6 Good Player
10-12 Pugs

emily3989 · June 2016

4 decent, but not necessarily optimized people can kill any WB in any DLC. Better players can do with less, but a 4 man pug should be sufficient, unless someone really sucks. I have killed them all with three other random people that were standing around at the time (no idea who they were). Wrothgar there is usually a pug raid chain killing them, you can just piggy back on one of those as well.

Personally I'd rank them from easiest to hardest as NB -> NYZ -> EDU -> POA -> MAD -> UD. A group of four coordinated people can probably get them done but the more the merrier. Pugs tend to get slammed by AOE, though, or not knowing that they do actually have mechanics (like Nyzchaleft's projectile shield). MAD and UD are a mess of adds and AOE, and EDU/POA have some surprise heavy hitters. NB and NYZ are basically "don't stand in stupid".

lol thank you. stoopid memory.

Nestor · June 2016

I have Duo'd a couple World Bosses, Unfinished Dolmen being one of them, although a 3rd person showed up towards the end of the fight.

They can be solo'd for the most part, if your willing to invest 15 to 20 minutes to running a pattern and rotation precisely during that time. However, that is not an accomplishment I find to be all that much fun.

I think 4 to 6 people in a Pug, is about the right amount for most the WB's in Wrothgar. The Pirate Captain in Hew's Bane, that is another story. Anyway, 4 to 6 for Wrothgar gives a nice challenge. If your with a good established group, the number needed can go down from 4 to 6, depending.

TrueGreenSmoker · June 2016

Depends on peoples build me (Mag Sorc shields OP) and my friend (Mag Temp with HoD S&B) did most world bosses with us 2 only for the daily quest for motifs etc the only one thats pretty hard is the unfinished dolman with the AoEs and the deadric portals and suicidal banekins but we have beat it with 3 people some random guy who was waiting there lol

pcar944 · June 2016

done some with 4-7

Elfbait · August 2016

It really depends on all kinds of things, not just level, but situational awareness and how team-focused you are. The first time I faced that ice ogre in Wrothgar, it was just me (CP 130) and two others, one was level 41 (obv battle leveled to 150/160) and the other was CP 113. It was a tough fight, but we beat the dang thing. The second time I was with two random CP 501s, and it was just fail after fail.

ForsakenSin · August 2016

2 people for all of them and its heaps of fun ( that is without no lag)

I have StamSorc in experimental stage and Temp and my buddy has Temp and NB so we just keep on doing daily's sharing the quest and killing World Bosses.
