Ghishzor is cheesable

Dimentiza · October 30

Ghishzor the new world boss on phase 2 of the event is cheesable.

You can just pull him off to the side of the spawn area which enables you to skip the incoming wall of damage which is a major mechanics of the boss.
I find it really disappointing on top of this lackluster event.
Event content is already very easy and mob mechanics are very simple and skippable with damage burn.
I crave for bit more challenge and this could be easily fixed by restricting his taunt area.

New World failed because it was a new IP.

ESO is only still going because of peoples love for Elder Scrolls at this point.

i am glad Ghiszhor does not seem impossible, but that indeed is hardly a challenge

Depends how you look at it. For me this boss being cheesable is a direct result of the devs not caring enough to even test the boss, make sure the mechanics work, make sure any of it works. They just slapped it in, and hit the on switch. The quality of ESO is going down each content patch.

It all ties in together, both were very similar so it’s fair to compare the two of them.

If I was the Studio Lead over there at ZOS, I would be doing everything in my power to take the best parts of New World, like bosses that actually work, and try to build a house for all of us refugees.

I think the problem with the wall is that sometimes you can roll through it, other times not.

I did it yesterday twice. First time I could roll through the wall every time and we killed it first try.

Second time rolling through the wall still hit me, pretty much every time. The only way to survive the roll was to have Major Resolve and then heal from a few hundred health. There were 20+ players and we wiped 2-3 times to the wall and the boss reset itself. So it wasn't just me messing up the roll, it was everyone.

So I don't know what you are supposed to do there. Maybe roll? Doesn't work always so I am not sure which one was the fluke, the first try or the second. Perhaps go away from the area and go around it? Seems odd if you have to leave the area to avoid something.

Kill the blob that spawns together with the wall. It will leave a safe zone upon death. Simply stand inside it and the wall will do no damage to you.

Edit: spelling

Makes sense. I saw the dome. That means the first time I did the wb, the wall was bugging out and did not do the damage it was supposed to do.

I thought it was the second time when it bugged out.
