i would like to see cryptic do a "garunddar the vile" skirmish
lets see how much ppl will like this one and more important finish it!
this is by far the hardest skirmish out there seen so many ppl leave cause they cant kill the dragon.
would love to see the responses of ppl doing this skirmish event and finding out how hard it is.

    Never had any trouble with it on any of my characters, including doing it in multiple PuG's.

    The next one is battle for the bridge. It should be fun to see the fallout. Garunddar might be worse, depending on how they end up scaling the Mystics heals.

    Now that you can do Battle for the Bridge as a geared-out 60, it's not nearly as painful as it used to be. :) Should be fun to see how they scale it down for lowbies.

    I honestly think they've toned the adds in the final fight of Battle for the Bridge. Regardless, the thing with Garrundar is whether or not the party works together to deal with the adds, or at least has a CW who knows what to do. Repel the mystics and it's another faceroll skirmish. The last time I did it (a few days ago) I had to stand at the cliff and repeatedly tell the CW to throw them off. This was after kiting them away from the dragon long enough for everyone else to slay the beast.

    I imagine that overgeared 60s wouldn't have a problem with the skirmish as they will be able to throw everything on the dragon and burn it down. Less geared parties would be in the same boat as people doing the regular skirmish.

    Never had any issue with this one, provided there's a cleric in the group. No cleric is a bit harder, but the new design allowing any class to join without any restriction is a bit silly.

    When they do make this into the CTA, I hope they fix the bug where one of the lizards gets trapped underground occasionally and you can't kill it.

    I always skip skirmishes while leveling. I never done this. And it doesn't exist at 60...

    Can anyone tell me what area this is on?

    The Sky Pirates zone, the one that has the Pirate King dungeon. You can also look it up in your journal, where it lists all of the skirmishes under the second tab.

    I done Battle for the Bridge without a DC, a level 55 CW and 3 lowbie 60s (greens and blues) and I was asking myself, why? Fortunately I was on my GF so I just loaded up on the defensive gear, used Fighter's Recovery and dragged that sorry party through.
    PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.

    I just did it repeatedly with my mage alt. The tactics is, die and come back. Unlike a final dungeon boss fight, when you die there is no unvisible wall that will prevent you from coming back to the fight. Die, come back, die, come back, in the long run Garrundar will fall.

    A Skirmish that actually requires a basic grasp of tactics and use of your abilites instead of mindlessly AoE???

    CRYPTIC FIX THIS ASAP!!!

    I hated the Garrundar skirmish so much.

    Those god-awful net-throwing lizards. Ugh. Just... no. Just no. No no no no no. NO. NO.

    Battle for the Bridge, however, is going to be great fun. Especially for low-levels who don't yet understand what it means when literally the whole floor is covered in a sea of overlapping red.
