Who would win in a duel to the death? How and why would which win? Remember what their Monster Skills do, and compare. Discuss!



Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

Glint as she has her Hibernation healing spell and Kuunvang has no healing or way to interupt Glint.

Um... you forget that glint can see the future...
She can know exactly what the kuunavang will do when.

Damn, she'd be a good interrupter... too bad....

Considering that Kuunavang has skills that can rip Glint several new ones, I would say Kuunavang.
Then again, if you consider the lore (if wiki is correct), Glint would be too small for Kuunavang to find because Glint is hidden within a grain of sand in the desert. That and the fact that the gods created Glint... Lore-wise Glint would win, game-wise Kuunavang would win.
(Off-topic, but this is just like ninjas-vs-pirates: it wouldn't happen.)

It MIGHT happen. No one knows what will happen in Nightfall Joining into 12v12 Glint V Kuunavang battles would be awesome
(Like AB, but one team has Kuunavang on there side, the others have Glint )

lol 12v12 Glint V Kuunavang battles ftw!!!!!

picture this

you and 11 other guildies start out in your base with glint (I say glint because I like glint better)

other team has kuunavang and 12 people

you rush out to meet people and glint shoots fire and so does kuunavang.

then your team with glint wins!!!

Technically Kuunavang could be two-manned. A degen Necro and a good Monk = gg Kuunavang.

Then again, the same could probably work on Glint, so who knows?

(Besides, I've 8-manned Kuunavang in Unwaking Waters when the Kurzicks ragequit at the sight of my 7-hench team... )

I Beat Glint with 6 people earlier(me including), to my surprise really.(2 peeps left before reaching Glint)
Amazing really, since 2 of those 6 people noobs, and one was Alesia the healer henchman.

Heres proof:

And more:


My monks a cutie aint she. ^^
Anyway the point is, Glint was more easily defeated than Kuunavang.
Hence, my opinion is that, Kuunavang is stronger.

It's actually impossible to solo glint. Reason : Other team, if not real players, are henchys.

UNLESS you take real people, and the other teams real people and they leave. But then your screwed at the afflicted.

Kunnavang's attacks and spells do far more damage than Glint could ever hope to dish out. Corrupted Dragon Breath, Corrupted Dragon Scales, Corrupted Dragon Spores, Dark Chain Lightning, Renewing Corruption, all pwnage monster skills. Corrupted Dragon Scales/Spores would cause mass degen to Glint, while Dark Chain Lightning did 300 damage and knockdown to her. Renewing Corruption would cause Kunnavang to heal way faster than Glint would damage her, because when her dragon spores and scales die she gains a lot of health.

My conclusion:
Kunnavang>>>Glint

GLint use Crystal hibernation and when Kunnavag uses Chain lighting it is actually healing Glint.

I would have to say Glint would pwn Kunnavag. Everybody beats Kunnavag, not everyone beats Glint. Glint wins.

I don't know. Glint has some pretty handy healing spells to overcome the -10 degen. She has a +7 health regen spell plus some other heals. Plus, if the monster skills cost them energy, exhaustion on Kuunavang could become an issue.

Interesting topic. Dragons has been a hobby of mine for years and tend to favor Eastern world dragons (gothic and medieval) than the Far Eastern Dragons (orient).
Eastern dragons (Glint) were always considered as an evil power, terror-inspiring and warlike.

Far Eastern dragons (Kuunavang) were considered a source of wisdom and a beneficent creature.
Glint (considered god-like) was also created by the Gods of Tyria and the first of all creatures, which means Kuunavang is a child in comparison to Glint. I would not weigh too heavily on the skills you see Glint use in battle, because she also has eons of wisdom to aid her in battle and very well may have powers beyond our comprehension.

In my opinion, Glint will prevail.

Well Glint is really good at the healing aspect, but kuunavang can fly away then dive bomb. And i think the spores would do her in pretty fast as well. Its like tank vs SS, if the SS kites well enough, and the tank rushes SS(Kuunavang) wins. If tank plays it smart it would win.
As far as lore is concerned, neither can really die and both have centuries of expierance under them. Kuunavang has already died once, served the oldest of emporers and is just as smart if not more so then glint. Glint has size, age, and healing ability on her side, prophecy is helpful but she cant see past desicions ppl make, and can just see the general flow of things. thats why she didnt say an exact year, or date and names.
IMO Kuunavang has many more advantadges then glint and as thus would probably win.

After reviewing the skills, I'd say Kuunavang, since she'll just degen Glint to death.

On the other hand, I'm not taking into account Glint's normal attacks which hits pretty hard. But then again Kuunie's Dark Chain Lightning is armor-ignoring, so...

Another thing to consider is that Glint can conjure "Facets", which means Glint would have the advantage.

Facet of Light - Guardian, Shield of Regeneration (Elite), Signet of Devotion
Facet of Nature - Concussion Shot, Hunter's Shot, Melandru's Resilience (Elite), Pin Down
Facet of Chaos - Diversion, Ether Feast, Mantra of Recall (Elite), Shatter Hex
Facet of Darkness - Blood Renewal, Grenth's Balance (Elite), Parasitic Bond, Unholy Feast
Facet of Elements - Aftershock, Aura of Restoration, Crystal Wave, Lightning Surge (Elite), Shock
Facet of Strength - Gladiator's Defense (Elite), Healing Signet, Power Attack, Wild Blow
Glint's 6 Facets with a total of 28 skills (including Glint's known skills) would pretty much tear through the Kuunavang.

What makes you believe Glint can not fly? Did you not see the wings spread on her back, as she rises on her hind legs, after you pick up one of her eggs?

i saw that but man she is HUGE! lol a 500 lbs person can walk but can they run?
Glints facets would probably take a very VERY long time to create, and theres no proof that she can recreate them after theve been shattered.

Glint would destroy Kuunavang. Not just in terms of strength, but lore-wise, she's an ancient all-knowing creature, and the first creature on Tyria at that.

Plus, if she is capable of summoning facets, it would only make K's demise quicker.

Wow throw in summoning Facets and thats game over for Kuunie. Glint would beat Kuunie already. Just too much damage being done by Glint and not enough healing for Kuunie for Kuunie to win. Glint FTW.

I think glint would win... first of all: ALL the above reasons; second cause i would really love to see glint walking around with the newly dead kuunavang in his HUGE mouth as if she was a dog with a bone... Yes cause that mouth is big enough for 2 kuunavangs to fit in..

& other reason... Glint rules!

Can you imagine how long it would take to summon 1 facet? thats a completely whole creature capable of thought and magic as well as completely independant from glint. Worse then that the exhaustion after the cast would be like a year and a day long. Summon facet=1 day (thats a low assumption) and causes exhaustion +10. Kuunavang slaughter of the defenseless glint=12 hours (a high assumption unless Kuunavang decides to interupt or Glint runs away)
