July 18th 2023 updates:
The Leaps and the "big boom" done by the boss are no longer dodgeable, so make sure you do the mechanics!
To complement, the "Leaps" (or should I call it Numbers?) mechanic only does 50% of your HP bar so don't panic and just heal up if you are low, but you can mitigate the damage with barrier/shroud or even block it with shield skills if your class has one.
My experience with a new Fractal:
1) Start at T1 to learn the mechanics and look up the Wiki to see what info is on there
2) Practice several times at lower tiers to make sure I understand the mechanics right
3) Finally ready to try a T4 but still nervous, worried I'll underperform and anger the rest of my group
4) Work up the courage to join a T4
5) No one else in the group has ever set foot in this Fractal and just jumped straight into Level 100 without looking anything up. Also one guy have 70 AR
why is this relatable
Additional tips:
1. You can "dismount" the zipline (arrow at the bottom left or dismount key) to have more maneuverability in the air. Helps with the achievement.
2. Another thing for the achievement: you can grapple the green crystals right after coming out of the windtube.
3. Closest entity to the boss is tanking! Boss does cleave attacks, that do hurt quite a bit.
4. Move into aother players beam at the 66 and 33% to get the add (healer stand in the middle so dps can get your add).
Hope it helps a bit.
Thank you very much! That 4th point will be very usefull. :)
A concise guide that also includes a shout out to the infamous Archi Pelago. What a madlad.
Don't get me wrong, I love fractals, I even have the legendary backpack, but I had anxiety about this new fractal not understanding at all what to do in these fights. This helped tremendously and now I know what to except when I dive on in. Thanks.
These are still some of the best walkthroughs I've seen in any game. Thanks, Mr. Muk
From video alone that jumping sequence at the beginning looks fun to do first few times and massive hurdle to do for 100th time.
it also looks like one of the things that if you mess it up in pugs, people will just votekick you or insult you without end
Exactly this. Just another bunch of throwaway mechanics no one's asking for. I'm glad I don't play fracs.
It's really not that hard tho.
I got my achieve on my second ever visit to the Fractal, since in the first one I specifically joined a Blind one to get more time in.
Being able to drop down a Zipline early is extremely important to get better aerial control.
A lot of those mechanics were a bit difficult to see, so I'll try turning down the fog next time, thanks!
Concise, to the point, and summarizes the fights (and questionable ungliding means of how to get to them)! 👌
I rarely comment, but I have to on this. For someone who is busy as hell, these are GOLDEN videos. No fluff and straight to the point.
Silent Surf was the Tier 3 daily rec yesterday. The group I was in via the LFG, who were all experienced fractal players, just refused to play this fractal and went straight to the Tier 2 daily rec. It will be interesting to see if this attitude to Silent Surf is (1) widespread, and (2) persists with guides like this now available.
I'm GUESSING the CM will skip the jumping puzzle, similar to sunqua. But we will see
The two times I have do this fractal, we sometimes haven't had the adds go to the side islands. They tether, disappear, then no marker appears for anyone saying where they went, so run a few laps incase the marker is bugged and boom...
That's sad, it's a pretty fun fractal and quite straightforward once people know what to do.
Woo-hoo a guide! Learned all this the hard way myself first time in. Unfortunately we had one person that never learned the eye mechanic. I think they ate it fully at least 15 times. Then people just left. Need to make watching this mandatory!
At last there is a guide thank you mukluk for this quick easy guide video ❤
you shout out archie pelago, but where is the shout out for my man dan tory?
You might have saved my life with the environment zone intensity, at some point something changed in my settings and I couldn't see shit anymore during the boss fight, being doing it almost blind for months
If I knew all of that the first time, I wouldn't have try it 10 times!, great tutorial, right to the point, I'll send my guild to this video, so next time there better not be excuses.
Honestly, most people that practice water sports are usually pretty quiet about it.
Fun watch with a sprinkle of knowledge. Thanks Global Icon
Thanks. Just what I needed to get through it to finish an achievement.
I love how it ends with “click these links”
My group would get outside demons during other random times in the fight. We thought killing those lowered his defiance bar stacks. Also, if you don't break CC. The next CC bar will be in the position of the last CC. So if you do 80% to the defiance bar. There will only be 20% left at the next one.
The 66% and 33% adds aren't random! They target the closest person to them with their orange beams, so that mechanic can be kited and baited. Other players can also steal the fixate from each other, so what my group has found is that right before those phases the dps can just run into the hit boxes of the adds around the arena to guarantee they get it. You can also pop open your special action key during that phase to know for sure if you have an add to go kill - if you don't, you won't have any charges, but if you do, you'll have 2 grappling hook charges. Just don't be like me and grapple over to an island but then get so eager to start attacking that you accidentally grapple AGAIN and launch yourself down into the pit underneath. BUT huge thanks for the environmental intensity setting tip, I'm already a blind old lady so seeing some of these was really difficult!
Just did this for first time tonight. I REALLY struggled at the last jumping sequence with the zips and mushroom etc. Next one will be better!
They finally did it! "Somehow, Kanaxai returned!"
Well technically the fractal takes place before you get to defeat Kanaxai in GW1.
sometimes the adds make a laser that oneshots me.. where does that come from? idk how to avoid it
Tip: if you're using action camera mode, it's almost impossible to hook to the island on the last boss, go back to point and click and zoom out so you can target the island easy.
thankyou for the guy I knew you have to kill the adds but I didn't know how the agro worked there
Okay i think you cant have your settings at the lowest for this fight because I did not see any beams or circles or blue bags whatsoever on my first try (during the week i can only use a old laptop to play)
good to know
Man this fractal is a long day huh
Thanks man!
u can take the ad away from healer if u want by standing in his orange link to the ad
Alright, getting back into fractals after two years, this is new, time to find out- ...skip today's dailies, got it.
I laughed 😂
Wish there was no body check during the JP part so it's easier to solo :/
Thank you!
So in otherwords, "silent surf day is your new day off from fractals". Thanks.
Why do i get instand killed by 2 or 3 adds+boss?
Its seems like a ray each add+boss is killing me.
Doubt I'll ever touch thia fractal at all since its been ages since I last did fractals and being just at 12-14, does limit which ones I can even join for.
But I do have 105 agony resistance for if I ever do feel like browsing for progression groups
Is condi or power better on this one?
Condi better imo virtuoso it melt the boss just my opinion 😀 but condi better
Does anyone know what part of the timeline this is? End bosses lines make me think just prior to Factions?
Well Dessa says something like "This can be weeks after the Jade Wind" so yeah before Factions/GW1.
LOL I appreciate the Archipleago refference
oh darn, it's a jp. I saw this fractal was a requirement for a mastery I need.
The part where you said other players can’t see the white beam that is connected to the mini platform that you jump on, does that mean each player has their own mini platform they need to jump on and kill their own mob?
Yes you get a red x on the mini map others cant see that.
And its random so if you miss to see the blue beam in the heat of the fight check the mini map I think first is around 66 % at the bossfight
no its random, 1-3 players will get chosen for add kill.
Thanks for this video.
Yaas Water Sports daddyy!!! slay that beast!!
you can hook the ground btw
thanks was wondering
'Evaristo para pooly, etsi ke eetsi, yasu kalimera, yasu kalinykta, yasu kalinoches!!'. I mean, your pronunciation is better than Gabrielle's 😁
Repeat the mechanic rotation on the boss a hundred times since it has an unnecessarily high amount of hp.
it takes around 5 mins in t4.... with normal players.
he has 27 million HP more than Slothasor with 18 Million with a 10 man raid and less opressive mechanics
When you break the defiance bar the boss gets a "Dread Defiance" that says his bloodlust increases, thought that means he gets stronger so we've been avoiding CCing the boss.
get a competent healer 🥺
@@critical-thinker666 We don't even use healers in fractals. lol
@@noelic6744 this one seems like no brainer to take healer,especialy with cm inc. 90% dont know mechanics yet.
@@critical-thinker666 Well, I'm not really playing with those 90% since I only play fractals with my friends. But yea, so far we haven't been able to do this one without a healer. Maybe someday.
@@noelic6744 theres too much condi spam for no heal run and any failed dodge costs half hp... so in pug its not viable and in premade its not worth the effort 🙂
Is arc dps allowed again?
At this time it is allowed
F- this Fractal, F- this Fractal so much.
Honestly; me and a friend did it with 1 Reaper and 1 Tempest xD
lol
Question: I only play fotm with my wife, so is possible to progress through this with just 2 people (talking about the parts where you have stand to trigger events)? Is 2 people enough to trigger those parts? Thank you.
@@gustavmetal it took 2 tries, the first time we did it with my quickness firebrand, and his tempest but wasnt able to beat it that way... It didnt go so well. When I switched to my reaper and he switched to a bit more support with alacrity (not much but it was something) it was soo much easier. However it did take like 20 minutes. But it worked out. All I have to say is this was easier than Sunqua Peak on normal mode. It wasnt easy but it wasnt impossible either. It just required alot of patience.
@@gustavmetal The Level 25 one can be done with 2 people.
Higher Tiers need more people to trigger the events through the JP part with 4 people max in T4.
Yass more GW2 content
not rly a fan of this style of fractals, pointless 4 mins of jumping and than whole ONE BOSS after 2 years.
much wow. first we skipping whole sanqua and than this.
What, you can't solo the level 100 version of that fractal like Lord Hizen a week ago? 😂
This one seems more difficult than your average fractal, interesting
EDIT : Aaaaaand I read in the comments that it is the lvl 25/50/75/100, fair enough lol
thanks :D
so we putting raids in fractals now lol
More like a low quality meta event
3:33 Ah! found "Archi-pelago" joke :D
First time I tried this fractal, ''raged quit'' Huge ''SORRY'' to the team. Now this is done thx to you. THANK YOU'&'Bless you, Mukluk
1:23 i dunno this sentence kinda applies to alot of things
Archipelago... I swear you do it on purpose.
Very useful guide as usual though.
Who is Archie Pelago? Is that the one from the comics?
A chain of islands is called archipelago. You're welcome.
Some of these mechanic remind me of some in FFXIV which i think is a very good thing. I know they want to distinguish themselves from other MMOs BUT taking cues and tips from a formula thats been known to work, i think is a very good direction to go for, cant wait to see what they release next!
Yeah dealing with special adds and the look away mechanic reminded me a lot of ffxiv. One of my favorite fractals with the unique platforming and challenging boss fight that is more than stack and fight.
Not doing really a lot of HP
If I am a f2p player, can I make the new fractal?
Archipelago mispronunciation is back baby!
nice guide but looking at it its too much hasstle to do it
One complaint I've seen in a couple of random T4 runs is that this boss has too much HP, which would be a valid point if they knew how to boon strip on No Pain, No Gain days. God forbid we have to actually keep up a rotation.
The jumping jumping prior to the boss is the actual showstopper here. The boss is not hard.
i like fractals, but the have too many jump sections, puzzles, minigames and skips and very little actual combat 😢
I really liked this platforming level. The first run you get to explore and learn the movement abilities and the following runs you optimize and it's such a breeze as you cross big distances and maneuver quickly. Although if you don't like platforming at all then yeah this would suck, but I think it's still better than the fractals where you have to nail like 10 consecutive jumps or start over.
Clicking the links is Man-DAN-tory
He Forgets to mention this boss HAS A LOT of Hp on Master Rank.. and if ppl just suck by playing with our toons.. well you will be there like 1 hour to kill it lmao
I know Muk knows already. but, it's Ach-e-peloton
Sorry for strong words, but I fucking hate this fractal; Jumping puzzles are abomination, what is this, Super Mario?
I would rank this one similar to underwater ruins really dont like this "jumping" sh*t
I'm too old to try this Fractal. LOL
Great Value Kanaxai
And yep i still have no idea why we need to kill the adds on the islands xD
its ending phase and cancels out boss aoe atk.
@@critical-thinker666 yea i mean so its a "If you do it the fight is slightly faster" mechanic. Cause you could simply wait and Dodge the AoE lel
@@Myror.7521 ye its prob bug,but it shoud save quite alot of time since add takes like 2 sec to kill and phase last like 30 sec.
@@critical-thinker666 Probably a preparation for CM. Can't imagine you'll be able to dodge that attack then ^^
i think... i think i love you
Coming from XIV I got the hang of it quickly, my party... Not so much lol
I know it sounds really mean, but the average IQ of a gw2 player is on the lower side. It takes so long to teach them even the simplest mechanics it's kinda nuts. What's really nuts is when the ones failing mechanics are playing something truly brain dead like reaper or mechanist. And by god there's so many of them.
@@crimsonpotemkin i remember being in complete shock when people described boneskinner as one of the hardest strikes and the literal only mechanic is walking to the left and sometimes slotting a projectile reflect when the supports cant figure out how to do that
@@blasagna1892 I know right, it took me an entire second to register what I had to do and I never even got to make that mistake. The one time that the attack got me was way later when I unlocked the mastery to do the hadouken attack. It animation locks you, so you gotta be careful. Other than that the fight is legit braindead. Even if you're doing a full revenant rotation and mantaining a ventari bubble it's still too fucking easy. Blows my mind.
@@crimsonpotemkin Omg you're such a pro gamer you mom must be really proud of your mechanics dude!!!
But nobody asked
@@TohnR then why are you commenting and upvoting your own comment? Butthurt much? Anything I do anyone with an average level of intelligence can do. The game isn't difficult by any means. The fact that you get so offended and call it "pro gamer" indicates on which side of the iq destribution you exist 😂😂
I swear, 90% of gw2 playerbase can't fucking figure out that they need to turn away when the eye mechanic happens. And I bet you're one of them.
Boss has a stupid amount of health points.
Lord hizan just solo ed this one on the 1st day 😭
It doesn't count 'cause he's from another planet..... :)
The boss doesn't hit hard, AND his main high damage mechanic can be straight up dodged/cheesed.
Given enough time and a half decent sustain build, most streamers can indeed just solo him.
Did Hizen need to get other people to be able to get to the fight, or does challenge mode not have the jumping puzzle with the forced "have x people stand here" spots?
It means a chain of islands, but it is pronounced like : ark-e-pel-ago (or ark-ih-pel-ago), not how it is spelled which is archipelago.
But then this is the Mucker who intentionally mispronounces Kaineng and SO many other words I assume you're just being quirky and fun.
"We'll help him in a second." 😅 womp womp
Mandantory humor
I'm stuck at 0:50, thanks for the guide though, will try not to ragequit next time when I try to replicate what you did...
you are supposed to use grapling hook on those stalagmites on top and than use gliding to touch middle shroom. you dont have to use skill 3 ever.
Thanks mukluk!
Kanaxai from gw1?!?!?!?!? Nani?!
FURST!
Baggy Waggy
ok i dont normally play fractels but this one looks like fun
This fractal is straight up the shittiest thing ever added to GW2 in its life cycle, I dont do fractals to do stupid jumping puzzles.
Ze hook
I don't like this Silent Surf Fractals
benis :-DDD XDD
thirsty
Or just be tanky 😁
I seriously expected to start this guide with " hey so heres the guide for all eod and beyond content... just open gw1 and watch how good the content was before they twisted it in some weird gw2 shit so they can ask for money for an expansion thats has so little content you can see it as a bugfix"
First❤
R E D _ C I R C L E S _ A R E _ B A D......
mmmmkay?
Ze Hoookh!
