Glint is lvl 31, the Lich is lvl 30 (I think). But the strongest creature in the game? If you use lvl to determine that, then Glint wins. But the Kuunavang i'd say can kill and monster one on one.

Long time Glint was the strongest single thing in Guildwars, no doubt. But with Factions and now the introduction of the slighty improved Rotscale some time ago I'm not sure of that anymore.

The Lich Lord is a pansy. The only thing that makes the fight with him interesting are the Titans spawning in the lava around him. Any of the other Big Guys would tear him to pieces, we're talking about a very different dimension of damage dealing capacity here. Kuunavang or Shiro vs. Glint? Not sure. My money in all of this would be on Rotscale. That one doesn't have any fancy special skills, but an insane ammount of health and both the bonus features from Tyrian and Canthan bosses (hexes and conditions last only for half their stated duration, and it's skills deal double damage and cast and recharge twice as fast).

Oh, there's one more we almost forgot: Zu Hanuku, the kraken from Boreas Seabed mission isn't to be underestimated either - well, as long as you don't deny it's Jade Fury skill. I haven't met Urgoz or Kanaxai in person yet, but they probably should be mentioned here, too.

Jagged Crystal Skin, Glint wins. Or how about Crystal Shackles where you can't do anything, Crystal Haze causing exhaustion on skill use... go ahead and spam spells Rotscale...

Let's not forget that bad boy Maw the Mountain Heart. He may not have the fancy monster-only skills of the big bosses, but he's easily their equal when it comes to the "Holy GOREDENGINE, ruuuun!" factor!

Kuunavang >all other monsters

Kuunavang owns all the oter beasties ingame. Celestial skils FTW

Shiro is remarkably weak for a lvl 31 char, I can go against him solo, and he cant kill me, but I cant kill him either(with a w/n build).

Rotcalse isnt really that hard, its the all the other dragons that spawn around her that cause the problems.

It would be Shiro'ken vs Titans, because you know how those two characters are. They run fast when it gets hot

Where does Kuunie actually use celestial skills? Sure, she gives them to players, but I yet have to see her use one of them herself. The only time where she uses any skills is during Unwaking Waters, and that is a set of "corrupted" skills. Granted, those are pretty bad, too.

Jagged Crystal Skin only triggers on physical damage and only damages adjacent opponents. Bad for Shiro, yes, but no threat for Rotscale.
Crystal Bonds inhibit enchantments and movement. Rotscale doesn't use enchantments and is a ranged attacker.
Crystal Hibernation heals on non-physical damage. Would be interesting to see if Rotscale can outperform that with damage. We can only guess.
Crystal Haze may be a problem. But so far I have only seen Glint use that skill once or twice at the very beginning of a fight, never later. Rotscale would suffer from massive exhaustion for a while, but due to her huge health outlast that easily. After that, spam away!

True, but consider that Glint (to my knowledge) is a melee attacker. Give her a couple of seconds to move in and use Jagged Crystal Skin. If ever Rotscale does attack her at that range, the damage will still apply. Physical damage, be it ranged or melee, is still physical damage.

Glint attacks ranged with fireballs from her mouth as a standard attack and with I believe tail swipes and claws for melee range.

I consider glint the biggest pain in the arse to kill more than shiro, kunnavag, and rotscales. The reason being is because groups always forget to strip her stance and enchantments so not alot of people succeed at the first try. Shiro is easy to kill even with an all wammo group. The rotscales are being farmed like crazy so everyone knows how to kill them, my guild has even tried 5-man rotscale. Glint, however is hard to kill she cannot be done with the groups stated earlier.

Maw The Mountain Heart - coward!!! Keeps hiding underground. If it weren't for that, no problems killing him/her/it.

Lich, if you take him away from that circle of stone, he cannot die (according to the story). Otherwise, yes, he seems to have no powers (other than teleporting you away) that is of any consequence.

Shiro? Meditation Stance - do massive damage to him, or he'll do it to you. Again, sending you away is annoyance.

I still say Glint over Kuunaveng.
