Believe I've found the problem with Valley of Blades.

I was just running my fourth character through Valley of Blades and I think I've determined the source of most people's frustrations with this fight.

It's bugged to high Hate, Just for starters, and as a result, I think this belongs in CS. If not, you can move it. I'm also /bugging this in game because it needs fixed. Badly.

I've been filming my boss battles for my characters for educational purposes, mostly, and hosting them on YouTube. These three clips that I took today will also be going up, and I'll include links when they're up.

I've found that if you die at all during this fight, it doesn't reset properly. The mobs that killed you reset to their positions, but eventually, the first boss will respawn.

After killing Divad Hunding, I died on the next two. Great, no problem. Revive. Kill them one at a time, mage then dragonknight. Ra Adia reset because he ran out to the hallway while I was trying to get the hell out of his way.

Next three spawn. Oh hey look, number 4! Who's that? DIVAD HUNDING.

Die, kill Divad by himself. Pull last of the three that I didn't kill from the wave that killed me. Win.

This wonky crap after a wipe I'm pretty sure is the cause of at least 90% of the problems in this fight.

Video 2 shows my build because I usually toss that in there when I do these and I forgot to do it in the first one.

    Apparently after the v1.1.3 patch at least monsters won't get stuck during this quest anymore...
    Because that was a problem? Uuuuhhh...

    This is an incredibly annoying bug, I've experienced this both times doing the quest.

    Yup, have had Master Hunding respawn on me after killing him with two alts on the trot now, and as usual your companions are about as useful as chocolate teapot.

    Hey guys, this should have been fixed with today's patch. Can you let us know if you're still experiencing the same problem?

    @ZOS_GinaBruno‌ , patch worked.

    I didn't have any problems with this fight the last time I ran it.

    Video is still processing but it's up.

    Wow, the respawns weren't intentional design? I assumed they were to make sure you efficiently took care of the last two bosses before the first two respawned. I mean, they were undead already so i figured they were just being re-animated by Mannimarco. Now I feel kinda l33t for being able to handle this quest back when I did it, haha.

    Definately NOT fixed with the 1.1.3 patch!!! Hunding STILL reappears in the middle of the fight, at least if you wipe during the fight (which is pretty much obligatory considering that these "level 35" bosses one-hit you!)!!!!!!

    I just did it, and Hunding did not reappear. It seems like some of you haven't figured out the "trick" in this one, it's all about the stairs. Stay on top of the stairs and distance shot the CRAP out of them. If they come up after you, knock them over with silver arrows and jump off the top of the stairs. They won't jump after you, and you just walk around to the bottom and start bombing them while they fight the NPC's some more. When that one goes down, run back up. Tres easy if you do that.

    HAHA I killed them each 3 times!!!!!!!

    Thank God I'm a templar tank loaded with magicka pots!

    I did find it somewhat weird that this encounter was more difficult than Molag Bal or Mannimarco though.............
