Epic-Dungeon: Castle Never

Hello Com
I wanted to ask you if anyone of you defeated the last boss of the epic-dungeon castle never.
Our setup was: 1x GF - 2x GWF - 1x DC - 1x CW
Trash was hard and the third boss hard to kite, but killable. But the last boss ... no sun.
Any hints or help here at the forum or pm would be great.
It can't be serious that you need like 2x dc and 3x cw and just kick around the whole time
Regards

you don't need x2 DC, but is easier.
In the year 2025 DC astral will no longer stack... this has been reported since beta months ago.
The answer can't be to let 3 people of your party reroll their characters.
Also where is the sense of a guardian fighter if you don't really need a "tank"
double astral, cws black hole+push adds, tr solos every boss
summary of t2
Devs need to look into reducing the bonus GS that GFs get from their feats. It really throws people off, think their characters are ready for things they are not.
Also, because of the way ALL skills stack, going with 2 DCs or 2 GFs is pretty crazy right now. Into the Fray, which doubles your parties run speed and action point gain, stacks, as does Knights Valor, which reduces everyones damage by 50% but sends it to the GF (with 2 running tho, it is AGAIN reduced by 50% including the damage that goes to the GF), and Villain's Menace stacks as well (reduces damage taken, increases damage dealt and increases size).
I've personally found the best setup to be 1 DC 2 CW and 2 GF. Your cleric will be able to throw 3 or 4 Hallowed Grounds down at a time, your CW's can constantly chain black whole over and over, everyone's run speed is tripled, no one in the party will ever take damage, and the GFs will maul the dracolich.
and stacking every spell just so i can use my Daily Power about 3-4 times realy fast can't be intended
I highly doubt it is.
Again, tho, if your GF is conq specced especially, he probably has a highly inflated gear score. A conq specced GF should be at least 11.5 GS for t3s. The bonus to Power is always active as long as your shield bar is full, so it's extremely difficult to discern what your "real" gear score is.
2x CW 1x TR 2x DC
1x CW 2x TR 2x DC
I've killed it with the 1x CW setup, me as the CW, you could probably bring a GWF or a GF in place of one of the TR's, but it would take forever. Unfortunately, with the game the way it stands, GWF and GF are irrelevant classes in PvE.
/sigh this stupid nonsense again. Its been cleared with all classes including GWF and GF, thier are working builds for Both check out the forums for GF who do 30mil damage in never (after Valient set bug) or GWF topping dam in Never, you prob need x2 DC if your pugging, with smart player's 1 DC is enough even better because you have more DPS I have cleared Never as a GF,DC & CW without 2/another DC.
.
There are countless videos of groups of all compositions (including no TR and no CW) beating this dungeon on youtube.
Stop repeating everything you hear on the interwebs, it makes you look stupid.
Show me then please, i didn't found one with a setup like ours.
It's possible but most of them use the exploit. Confirmed the exploit has not been fixed despite being reported countless times since beginning of May. It was still not fixed as of this morning.

Well, the sad truth is that you can't really expect to beat an endgame dungeon with the same ease if you're not optimizing your party makeup. Right now a GF or GWF is not optimal. You can probably carry 1 or even 2 of them through Castle Never, but 3 is ridiculous.

This is false, you do not need any zen items to beat him.
My group has killed it with 1 CW, 1 TR, 1 GF, 2 DC several times now.
Knocking off adds isn't exploiting. What else are knockbacks good for? Is it exploiting to knock off adds in Temple of the Spider too? Or Spellplague? If the devs didn't want people to use knockbacks, they would place the boss fight in an enclosed arena like Karrundax or Frozen Heart, but no, the dracolich is surrounded by a bottomless pit for a reason.

I spent 3hrs+ in there just for crappy item drops. One dumb enchantment SHARD, not even a bloody full enchantment and a silly epic from each boss. Waste of time.
The dracolich is ridiculous. We have 2 rotating CW that knock mobs off the edge and still got overwhelmed at 30% hp left. The intensity of the fight and mind focus required is insane. My head still hurts after the failed fight.
I had enough of neverwinter silly dungeons. The whole game is a MESS.
Broken boss fight
Broken dungeon finder
Broken AH
Broken pvp
Broken powers/feats
Exploits EVERWHERE.
Just did Spellplague in a PUG with a wizard that forgot to get repell and couldn't buy a respec token before the AH/Trade was taken down. Me, the wizard and cleric just DPSed down the adds while two rogues were on the boss. Guess what, it worked just fine, and we often had time to spare between add waves. Just by killing them. IN A PUG, with only me and the rogue with anything higher than t1 gear. Now I don't know about the dracolich since I haven't done it yet, but seriously this "You MUST do this or you will fail! I say so!" mentality is getting old.
