The strangest thing happened to me today (still does)

I'm trying to interrupt Corrupted Dragon Scales (unwakening waters mission), tried Cry. See @#%$, but no interrupt.

Tried Leech and Power Drain, get energy, no interrupt.

Is this suppost to work that way?
I know dragon is hard to interrupt, but this is crazy....

She has a slight immunity to interrupts because they fail 50% of the time.

Then I don't understand the 'cry' and energy return.
It looks like the interrupt works, but not really.

Well, don't mind to much, 30 net energy return on 2 'interrupts' on one spell gives me enough for other spells.

I think the cry just pissses her off, then interrupt her again and she'll come right :P... hey, why are the dragons always females?

Anet does have a facination with the female gender...

At least ive noticed that Mesmers are becoming more preferrable as interrupters in two of the Luxon Missions that I know of.

Who the hell do the dragons even... you know, reproduce with if they're all female?

Judging by the voice acting, I'd say Prince Rurik, but you never know...

anyways it takes several interrupts to actually interrupt, from what it seems like.

With my ranger I had to use 3 interrupts each time to actually interrupt it, I think it's the same for a mesmer...

I used PD on the scaly thing, I had no problem interrupting it ... Can someone confirm it ?

I thing it s the shutdown thing on PD that interrupt, but it can be luck.

I know my Ranger skills were able to interupt the Dragon. I tried with my N/Me to interupt and I failed each time. At least 30% of the time I failed because I was to slow to interupt.

If what you people say is true, then maybe it wasn't all my fault in failing to interupt.

spinal shivers, winter/gc, broad head arrow, concussion shot can all make this easier. she is resistant to interrupts, the NPC in town tells you so.

Psychic Distraction let the Dragon to cast almost all... but get interrupt at the end. The Ranger can use Broad Head arrow because Kuunavang use mostly spells (except Dark Chain Lightning and Corrupted Breath). You need like 3 interrupt to stop a skill except PD.
