Curse

Has anyone ever done this? I have tried a few times with random people, but I think I have a build that could take her down ... tell me what you think:

2 Prot Monks with Pacifism equipt .... Glint can't attack this way

2 Necro's with siphoning ability .... Pacifism ends if the target takes damage...

2 Rangers ... interrupting is always nice .... also a few trapps just in case

1 or 2 Healers..... I guess this could be optional.

1 Something ... probably a damage dealer to get through the rest of the quest...

I'm not sure if it'll work out how I'd like it to but this is about what I'd like it to do:
-someone grabs the egg

-Monk A cast Pacifism

-Necro A and B do stack as much life degen as possible (with curses and blood magic)

- Monk B cast pacifism whenever Monk A's Pacifism wears off .... (maybe time it with something?)

-Rangers are always on hold to interrupt if necessary

-basically "rinse-wash-and-repeat" until Glint dies.....

I've been wanting to try this out for a while now, but I can never get the right people. And seeing as comunication would be a huge thing maybe TS would be handy? Anyway I think that this would be a guild project, if any happens to try this out and it works let me know some how .... if it fails let me know that too

Use the egg trick

1. Tank holds the egg and stands next to Glint
2. MOnks focus healing on Tank
3. Rangers intterupt Glints skills.
4. Everyone else just hits Glint

Did it really easily the other day and the Ranger (me) and the Tank were inexperienced but it was still a breeze

try the ranger trapper trick

lay down, say 10000 traps while shes your ally, pick up an egg, skip scene, shes not yr ally anymore, traps instagib her, game over.

all you need is 1 prot monk with prot spirit and a ranger that can interrupt (the other 6 random). It's really easy.

One ranger with ignire arrows can bring Glint down easlily...

The key thing is interrupt, and don't hit her when the reverse elemental damage thingy or the melee spike skin is up.

henchs + interrupt

Nater · Feb 17, 2006, 07:11 PM // 19:11

Egg dodge is the easiest way...boring for the person holding the egg, but..

All you do is grab an egg, and sidestep back and forth, dodging her fireballs.

The other 7 ppl are free to pummel her...just make sure you have someone that can interrupt that one skill she has that gives her +7 regen and heals from elemental dmg.

You have to have the right interrupt...just any interrupts won't do. Her uber skill isn't a spell, so Mesmer interrupts like Power Leak and Power Spike won't work.

I believe it's an enchantment. That would make the most sense. And I'm fairly positive I've interrupted her before with those spells, but it was a long time ago and I could be wrong.

Nope I just tried it with both. Neither work. I'm thinking you have to use all-around skill interrupts, such as Disrupting Chop, Distracting Blow, Savage Slash, etc.

I bet Leech Signet would work, and I'm sure the Ranger line has a few good ones.

Maybe we should start making a list of what works..

*EDIT*
Ok here it is, ripped from Guildwiki:

Crystal Hibernation - Skill (monster only). For 20 seconds, gain 7 Health regeneration. Whenever you would take non-physical damage, gain an equal amount of Health instead.

So you need to use interrupts that aren't "spell only" in the description...meaning ones that interrupt a target foes current action. Interrupt Crystal Hibernation while someone egg dodges, and Glint is a powderpuff(did you just think of Puff The Magic Dragon too?).

ye well ranger interrupt :F

Dahnel · Feb 18, 2006, 09:51 PM // 21:51

how i did it -

me , a warrior/necro, ran around with glints egg and when i was nearly dead i used grenths balance one her for about 400dmg (and a full heal) ...rinse and repeat

Zilm · Feb 19, 2006, 06:58 AM // 06:58

Crystal Hybernation, interrupt that and its over.

Osi Ri S · Feb 20, 2006, 08:44 AM // 08:44

arrent all the elite skills that you can cap while playing the mission there to cap for a reason, just like Dahnel said, he used Grenths and it worked well. Im guessing if everyone capped a skill or used the ones in there it would be very easy.

Nater · Feb 20, 2006, 04:38 PM // 16:38

Does knockdown interrupt Glint?

Glints Bane · Feb 21, 2006, 03:19 AM // 03:19

Necro with grenths. Tell the necro to get his health low then cast Grenths balance it will easily do over 200 dmg if done right.

Ok I killed Glint and it was so-so. I wouldnt go with ranger interrupts just because you may miss if you dont have a fast flight time bow. Mesmer interrupts nearly instantaniously and that's how I beat her. You need monks to all have some kind of hex removal too or everyone will exhaust their e.

The thing is that you cant go with a "kill glint" build or you wont make it to her. Go with a regular quest set up but sub in a blood nec and a mesmer (or ranger if you are desperate). One prot monk with prot spirit and one healer - blood them now and then - glint dies. No big whoop.
