Undaunted; vet spindleclutch

Hi,
Had some troubles with the first boss, the bloodspawn.
Went at it on two sepperate occasions, and when he was almost at the end of his life bar,
Boulders started falling and everybody is dead in seconds ..
So any of you guys know how to handle it ?
And considering I didn't get past the first boss, is the second and final boss even harder to kill ?

IIRC, Bloodspawn is a DPS race. You simply need to burn him down before he gets to that state.

EDIT: I say "If I recall correctly" because I've never seen him actually execute the wipe.

The next boss is much harder. It's waves of enemies before a really nasty wraith fight that can one hit any player that's asleep at the switch.

The final boss is a cakewalk, comparatively.

That's the gargoyle, right? That fight is a DPS check. You have to be able to burn him down fast enough to avoid being crushed by the boulders. Once he starts smashing the ground and boulders start falling the available space in the room starts getting smaller, as the outer edges collapse. You just need to cause enough damage to him fast enough to avoid getting crushed.

He is a DPS check. There is a timer and if you can't get him dead in that time, the boulders will kill you.

The second (or third if you don't skip the zombie one) is a PitA. Several waves of mobs and some one-shot mechanics that take some getting used to.

Everything after that is pretty straightforward. For a vet dungeon.

So I would need a decent group for that I presume ?
Goodluck finding that with the group finder ..
First time I went in, there were 4 fighting based Dk's

Bloodspawn can probably be dealt with in a PUG. What's'isname is probably not happening with a pug. My money is on one of the randoms flipping out on the second wipe... blaming everyone else, and leaving, but you never know.

All of the vet dungeons have much higher difficulty than the non-vet versions, so you're always going to have much more trouble with a PUG in them than you would with a non-vet dungeon. Your best bet is to do them with friends and guildies if you're in a decent guild (and if you're not, you should probably try to find a decent guild). Don't give up on doing it with a PUG though. You'll always run the risk of having a group that's not very good, but try to take that opportunity to help each other get better. Plus, there will be times when you end up with one or more players who are great.

Well its a concentric circle cave in.

The circles keep getting larger and larger until after the 4th one it caves in the entire room and you are dead.

There is little need for a tank in the fight, make sure you stay out of his swipe range and dodge the leap and you can go 3 dps and 1 healer.

It's all about the burn and killing him before that 5th pound.

19-20k DPS will clear it no problem.

Are you talking about the one with the healer adds and the circle of death that surrounds someone? Yeah, I could imagine that fight causing some folks to rage-quit. Having a patient group where the members are willing to help each other learn the mechanics and get better at working as part of a team makes such a huge difference, and you can never rely on that with a PUG, but you may luck out.

Yes. Praxin.

When I run normal, I always make sure to kick him, to make up for the pain he is in vet.

It's better now that I know the dance, but my first incursion there was such a pain...

Yeah. "What'sisname" was a snarky spoiler tag, but since AliniamE already named him...
