The Ancient Seer needs to be fixed so he doesn't die or move mob spawns away from him. It gets annoying to get to him and die.

thx

ectos taste nasty

Btw, the ancient seer has always been like this. If he dies, you must be failing pretty hard.

Kill the surrounding monsters and heal him. You Win! (you know you can target allies and make heros heal them?)

Methinks seer needs glasses. Apparently he cannot see mobs attacking him.

And yes, it's always been like that. Sometimes it happens. But Seer will live long enough for your one of your monks to reach it.

It's pretty easy to do....just use common sense, and run towards him and heal.

I think what everyone's saying is that it's been a problem since the beginning and if it's not "fixed" yet, it's probably not gonna be. Lots of missions have things like this (Rurik's leeroy impersonation, Leah Stone of the snail's pace etc etc)

The real question is... why is everyone calling the Seer a him? I could have sworn it was a chain smoking old woman..... Correct me if I am wrong.

Ya we did use common sense, but it wasn't just 1 monster attacking him this time like it usally is. It was 6 monsters and we couldn't get to him in time to heal him.

Since when is it common sense for a Healing Monk to run into a mob?

LOL!

Seriously though, he is right.

I've seen some bad monks, and I've seen some /fail monks.

Standing in aggro circle = standard isue PvE monk.

If it wasn't for Malice I still wouldn't understood your message.

But I've never experienced a Monk rushing into a mob, because I'm always the Monk in a pug.

God knows mercy and has shown you it. Try not playing a monk at some point and me not monking for you. Have fun.

Eh.. it has been fixed already. They changed it to be immune to burning and have some armor or something like that...
That mission is a joke in HM, I made it a long time ago and the Titans felt the same like in NM, XD.

The problem could be the way you get to the Seer.
Usually, I take the 'coast route' and I don't recall a spawn where there was more than 1 titan very close to the Seer.
As long as the team stays away far enough the Seer will not mess with that titan.

The only problem I know about was fixed and that problem was that the Seer died too fast in Hard Mode.

Saving the Seer is easy, just kill the mob before him faster and you will be fine.

The Titan near the Seer doesn't attack, if you stay far away. Just pull the group before you approach the Seer to a safe distance. No need to charge through them.

So normally there's only 1 monster attacking the seer, this time more attacked him/her/it. Never seen this happen, out of 10 times doing this mission, so this won't be happening very often. So what needs to be fixed again?

This method ^ works.

There is no need to 'fix' anything. Many have done it and then there are those that fail.

I've done this mission twice, got bonus both times on my first attempt. It isnt broken, yiou just need to kill the monsters, healing the seer while you do so. It isnt that hard.
