Thank Tala who came up with the information from the prime E-guide. It should all still be accurate because they keep the e-guides up to date.
where are Melandru's Cursed and Thul Boulderrain to be found? and... what's this i hear about a boss fix coming soon?

i have tried kiting him around. and in a second here i'm gonna do the item dropping technique.

so yeah that didn't work out.

2nd time out. i brought pin down and distracting shot this time. still no crippling from this guy. i used pin down and ran. got nothing. i got him extremely low life by using distracting shot against his troll unguent. still nothing. after about a 30 minute fight i just ended it.

My Conclusion after two 30min battles is he doesn't have it.
Remember common sence doesn't work on bosses all the time some bosses are bugged you got to try wierd stuff like switching weapons or dropping items and picking them up. Got to get really creative... I only wish I was joking this is getting kind of really really ****ing sad.

this begs me to ask the question what in the world does the Pine soul ranger have then?

also never heard of thul bulder rain most likley location would probabaly be tauls chaute or snakes dance.

I think Snakes Dance has been explored enough that people would of found him by now my guess is Thul spawns on the Left side of Tauls Chaute rarely past the mountain troll cave this is a guess eitehr that or hes in a new area.

also: is it just me or is it disappointing that the ranger Facet in Dragon's Lair seems to be the only one that doesn't have any elite skills? I think it's broken too. All he ever uses is pindown. You'd think since his area was the domain of slow or whatever that they'd at least have the decency to give him crippling shot.

and again... what's this I keep hearing about a boss fix

Actually Dragons Lair Nature Facet Dragon is not broken. I got skill from him not more than a day ago. Just have to spam SoC till you get it since its a stance(Melandrus Resilience). I spent my time poisoning him and crippling and he gave it up quickly enough. Dont know if that helps or not really tho.

As for boss fix... Supposedly they adding more bosses in other places with elite skills to make them more abundant.


EDIT: BTW, Where does Thul Boulderrain Spawn?

yeah, they apparently JUST released the patch. apparently Cripping Shot and Punishing Shot should be easier to find now.

# Assured that the skills Battle Rage, Crippling Shot, Defy Pain, Punishing Shot, and Warriors Endurance are now used more frequently by the boss monsters that carry the skills, to make them easier to capture.

The only assention warrior boss I didn't try once was the one at Dunes but that is because I can never find him but it shouldn't matter because they all share the same skill sets.

EDIT: I know the update that is why I tried again and I have to say they did a pretty bad job with warriors endurance... again.

Did you do anything special or did he just randomly use it? What kind of hp was he at? Did you have a mesmer in your group draining his energy?

EDIT: 12:20 two more attempts two more failures.

I hope the patch really does help though and it's not another anticlimax.

Please feedback to them if you guys come across anything that shouldn't be. I've already feedbacked on the issues with signet of capture.

He is a Tundra Giant. He Spawns in the same spots as the Giant for warrior elite Earth Shaker(Kor Stonewrath). Hes yellow for some odd reason but he still uses the skill Punishing Shot.

Pic...





And Crippling Shot is on Melandrus Cursed(Flesh Golem), Spawns in Perdition Rock. Posted a bit earlier.

Don't remember it being cited in the patch update, so I don't think they made any changes to this skill availability.

we had a dom mesmer but we didn't do anything special
just let him beat on us for a while and he did it eventually

i did nothing special but stood there and spamming SoC until he did it...
eventually he runs out energy when he keeps doing his skills i think
then he does endurance

I just got warrior's endurance off the custodian in Thirsty River. It took him a while to use it but he used it. I had the group back off of him and just dueled him. After getting him to around half life 7-8 minutes later we backed off completely and let him go back to spawn point because he hadn't used it yet.

The second fight about 2-3 minutes in he used it. Remember not to spam SoC too fast or else it cancels. Good luck to anyone going for it.

Managed to get 3 elites last night - Devastating Hammer, Defy Pain(finally) and Battle Rage. Also attempted to get Warriors Endurance but the boss kept spamming Hamstring, so everytime I tried to soc, I ended up trying to capture Hamstring. I'll be trying again, having now got Hamstring from Captain Osirik.

And the henchies are much better now against Mursaat.

Again... I think for the third time posted... Crippling Shot is on Melandrus Cursed(Flesh Golem) in Perdition Rock...

As for Bow Parry Elite Skill... Unless you mean Escape Elite or some other defensive skill like Whirling Defence, there is no such skill called Bow Parry.

Just because you never seen doesnt mean it doesnt exits. Should visit more often.
