How to kill GLINT

I couldn't find any strategy tips on how to kill Glint and complete the Bonus for Dragon's Lair until, I stumbled on a little trick last weekend and now have completed this Bonus on all 4 of my characters.

The trick is to ensure the group contains at least 1 Primary or Secondary Necro and that person has Spinal Shivers with them.

As well Warriors and Rangers should all carry an ICY weapon, I have done this with only 1 person having that ICY weapon but it is much tougher better to have at least 2 people carrying them.

I have found that this works everytime.

think about it...

its is easy as long as you have 2 ranger using savage shot when Glint is about to heal herself..

1 ranger with distracting shot (or any other interrupt) + 1 Tank Warrior + hench

My only real problem with Glint is that pesky Crystal Shard Skin or whatever it is... it's a stance, it seems, so it can't be interrupted. On top of that, it can really deal a lot of damage to those stupid henchmen who don't know when to not attack.

But aside from that, it's not really that hard. Just interrupt what you can, and a lot of problems are solved.

I don't have much knowledge on the skill you're talking about Tarot Ribos, but if it really is a stance use wildblow to knock her out of it.

Rangers strafe and main damage dealers, Everyone else run around like headless chickens? Lol. Can't really remember the difference between the time I killied Glint and the times we haven't. Apart from the fact that everyone was trying

I remember the first time I killed glint. I was going with a group as a battery necro, and as such had BIP on my skill bar. And of coursing, since I was doing dragon's lair, I carried along a cap sig. And naturally, I capped Grenth's balence on the way there. So now my skill bar has 2 elite, grenth's balence and BIP.

Now, I get to glint, proceed to repeat this combination:
1)BIP
2)BIP
3)BIP
4)Balence

do that over and over a few times. Glint died soooo quickly...

The beauty of having 2 elite skills....

Easest time I had was with a beastmaster/interupt ranger in the party. Interrupted the big skills and as everyone else stayed at range after the fighters accumulated excessive DP, glint was wailing soley on his pet. Pet died, he rezed and glint turned around again to agro the pet rather than pick on anyone else. Did it with hench monks too!

one person take her egg and strafe left right (much better if have grenth balance), the monk will heal/protect this egg guy.

everyone else attack her.

when glint is nearly dead, he will slow down this egg guy. so be ready for some nasty shit

I killed her with henches only, no inturrupts (I was a W/Mo). It did end up taking like 20 minutes though.

... to either interrupt her Crystal Hibernation (causes elemental dmg to actually heal her) or if interruption fails; not to attack with elemental dmg weapons/spells while she's under Crystal Hibernation.

The opposite goes for Jagged Crystal Skin. While she's in this stance, attack only with weapons/spells giving elemental damage.

Crystal Hibernation:
For 20 seconds, she gains 7 Health regeneration. Whenever she would take elemental damage, she gains an equal amount of Health instead.

Jagged Crystal Skin:
For 10 seconds, whenever she's hit by physical damage, nearby foes (you and your allies) take 100 damage.

This is how we did it:
2 tanks (one should be enough, but a backup tank for when the other one falls is nice) one holds egg and spams Glads Defence as much as posible (if he has it with him that is, since it's cap-able in Dragons Lair).
2 rangers interupt hybernations
The monks try to keep the tank with egg alive.
The rest try to do damage.
Don't attack when she uses Crystal Skin (VERY IMPORANT, this will get your tank killed quickly)
Don't cast spells when the energy draining skill is up. (or be exchausted for almost all your nrg)

just have a dominator or ranger interupt her important skills (haze, jagged skin and hibernation) and it's a simple free for all. monks heal. rest do dmg.... q is done.

any ranger or mesmer can make this easy with henchies, my count is up to 6 now. i doubt i will try again...the challenge is gone.

All you need is two rangers interrupting (pet interrupt for the added kick), and others to do damage and heal (warriors, eles, monks).
Necros can make the battle easier by things like Orders, SS and Disease.
