It's a Bonus at Dragon's Lair. Take her eggs at the end of the mission and you will end up fighting her.

Cause it gives you 1k Exp, duh.

I don't know why fight her really, I guess she gets pissed you took her egg and goe's momma dragon on your rump. Or, they just wanted you to kill a realy big dragon cause it looks kinda cool.

Losing the battle won't cost you the mission. So many people fights her for the extra 1k xp.

I didnt mean to fight her but accidentally clicked on the eges while running around. So I have to fought her and lost. Anyway completed the main mission and captured an elite. I'm happy with it.

You don't really kill her when you kill her.

Fought her about 5 times and never beat her (tho never gone with the intention of beating her so not too bothered...although 5-0 is a bit much :P) so I dont know what happens, but I assume she just gets back up and says "Oh u really are strong, u really are the chosen ones, just as it says in the prophecies blah blah blah grrr"

No, she dies and then her corpse lies on the ground. Most people take screenshots now and then you go to drognar and forget about it. There is nothing interesting, just the xp.

The key to win is: interrupt her.

Also: she attacks the one that holds the eggs -> so just protect him and fine

She's an Elementalist boss, right? Can you capture any elite skills from her?

Not sure if it's still true, but she was the highest level opponent in the game, so it's a fun challenge. I lost a couple times, but if you can get a warrior that is willing to run around with an egg and have some interupts she's pretty easy...

The last time we fought her the pick-up warrior kept saying, "can I drop the egg now, I want to hit her" over and over it was pretty funny...

Yeah inturrupts are the main key to killing her. That and stop trying to tank her! Hit and run, hit and run. I was dissapointed there wasn't more of a victory or anything when you beat her. It was a tough fight compared to a good portion of PvE.

It's kinda funny when you animate a bone horror and a tiny thing pops out of big ol' Glint.

Who says she is good? She led you into the clutches of the Lich. Her and the Seer manipulated you to destroy their enemies, the Mursaat, who it appears didn't pose a threat at all.

Interrupts are the Key. Also you must use physical damage weapons only. No magic enhanced weapons. No Firestorm, etc either.

I've only tried it twice on the spur of the moment, but both times I was massacred by Jagged Stone Skin.

I haven't tried this, but in theory you could just have a warrior hold the egg while a protection monk casts protective spirit/bond and the healing monks heals him while the rest of the team hits glint

If you have a ranger or mesmer interrupt her crystal hibernation skill, she falls pretty hard. Just gotta have a ranger pack an interrupt arrow or two and keep a close eye on Glint's skill use. Glint will focus on the egg holder, so the healers keep the holder healthy, while everyone else pounds away and the designated interrupter keeps Glint's skills locked down. 8v1, it's almost unfair . In all seriousness though, its a tough fight if everyone doesn't stick to the plan. If the interrupter misses with the interrupt arrow one too many times, Glint can be a real pain to take down.

The 1k exp doesn't really actor in much seeing as u can get tonnes of exp in UW/FOW

Me and my guildmates used to like killing glint just for the fun of it (Killing dragons is FUN!)

Of course we got bored after killing it for the XX time.......

Maybe they would have manipulated the Ascalon settlers to go back to their homeland and convince the king that the mantle were friends....or something.
