Shattered Observatory Fractal Guide 

Thanks a lot either way, as always you realise again just how useful your guides are when one is missing :) Now the only problem is getting a group in a reasonable amount of time if you don't have a ton of kps...

You can make up for this by bringing me with your cm runs. Jk. Thanks for this!

Thanks dude. Discovered your guides when someone told me the npc was named after a RU-vidr. Really needed this one for that lnhb title. Now to find a group....... Btw curious, how long does it take you to do t4s and CMs? You seem to speed run so fast!

No need to apologise, it's not like we owe them from you. It's rather a favor you're doing the community tbh.

Yeah.. Track name please

Mesmer taking feedback would reduce quickness/alacrity uptime (depending on which well you take out ) so it's not that good imo. If you want safer option you could either : have a Scouge using Corrosive Poison Cloud to block Arkk's ball attack ( it's called Solar Fury I think ) since the CD will line up perfectly with permanent alacrity or tell everyone to use special action key to block that attack and spawn no red AoE on the ground.

For mesmers on Artsariiv, bringing feedback should (in my opinion) be mandatory. With the proper build and thus boon duration, the extra alacrity from the second well becomes a redundancy since the phases are over so quickly anyways. This opinion however will be contested by others believing that "more alacrity > safety" is a general rule. For Artsariiv reflects can be key in allowing especially weavers to stand still and focus solely on the rotations. For Arkk however I would not recommend bringing feedback. The group will be more clustered there and will thus gain more benefit from having the extra alacrity. Couple that with the fact that not all orbs can be reflected in time due to the CD on feedback being longer than Arkks attack rotation. Plus the special action key is a super easy deboof method. As for base warrior vs. spellbreaker: as far as I see it they are pretty much interchangeable UNLESS the fractal has the "no pain no gain" instability, to which spellbreaker should be mandatory. Personally I prefer playing spellbreaker over base warrior, but I believe the DPS potential for base warrior is slightly higher. TLDR: if boons = spellbreaker. If no boons = whichever you prefer. Hope this helps! Good luck and have fun getting to know the 100cm encounters :)

For ark u dont need feedback. SASkill is enough.

Would reccomend bringing a Dragonhunter with wall of reflection. That way you dont have to sacrifice alacrity. But definitely do bring feedback if you dont have a DH in your team if you want a safe run.

Would rather bring hollow ground to just ignore the knockbacks tbh

Stijn I actually noticed myself sayinh that in the edit, but couldn't get myself to re-record, and didn't know where to put an asterix "70%*" correction label on the screen, so I just left it in :P Also, thank you!

And also sadly RU-vid removed the ability to make annotation buttons, which was an awesome thing you used to have in the table of contents :( Nice vid dood

Skryah GW2 Yeah endcards in general has died off for me :( Right as RU-vid removed the use of annotations, I also swapped to a widescreen monitor which has a format that is not supported by RU-vids overlay features... FeelsBadMan

Yeah, that's the thing for streamers and content creators sadly, using a widescreen monitor has a lot of disadvantages, sad frog :(

The right gateway was supposed to have been a fourth boss that got cut due to its inclusion being too overambitious, I believe. Instead the area was replaced by a mini area where you can find the fractal cat, Simon, for your homeinstance :)

Deroir Thanks! :)

How do you save yourself with the floor tiles please ?

You can! As long as a party member with the neccessary level unlocked *opens* the instance, then you are free to join in :) Just be aware that, at level 100, a minimum of 150 agony resistance is kinda required, otherwise you will take immense damage from certain attacks (If you even have beloe 140 when you simply enter the instance you will die, lol).

@@DeroirGaming Thank you for the abrupt response. Yes, you are right that 150 AR is required for this, which is why I watched your Agony Guide before asking this question lol. Good stuff. :D

@@lunarinth9773 also note that the higher your personal level the better loot

Yup

This is CM

@@DeroirGaming o.O, you need to add it to the title :) Thank you for all you do guys!

Are you the same blaster that used to be in wipe?

guess:D Stopped playing gw2 for months. I am dutch tho
