any reports from people who have been in the underworld and fissure of woe? Arena.net has said that there are some skills that can only be found when our region has Favor.

I made a run in the desert one .. Fissure ? Ran around till the tower, and didn't see any boss... :/

But IIRC (from the beta), in the other one, there was a boss, goal of the first quest you get from the human ghosts there.

You can get Marksman's Wager from one of the Custodian bosses from Elona's Ranch.. I can't remember the name even though I just got it like 5 minutes ago.

Ok, I want Poison Arrow, but I have no idea where Witman's Folly is. Heck, I don't even know how to get this SoC skill that everyone talks about. I just entered Yak's End if that helps. Thanks!

Don't worry you haven't missed anything, these areas are for those that have already hit level20. And you can't buy SoC's that early in the game either.

Spiteful Spirit - (Talus Chute:Nighh SpineChill[Shadow])
Plague Signet - (Witman's Folly:Karobo Dimdim[Grawl])

Posion Arrow - (Witman's Folly:Salani Pippip[Grawl])

Peace and Harmony - (Snake Dance:Marnta Doomspeaker[])
Signet of Judgement - (Snake Dance:Fawl Driftstalker[Shadow])

Illusionary Weaponry - (Snake Dance: Didn Hopestealer[Shadow])

Mist Form - (Snake Dance:Sala Chillbringer[Shadow])
Mist Form - (Talus Chute:Brrrr Windburn[Shadow])
Glimmering Mark - (Witman's Folly:Alana Pekpek[Grawl])

Still haven't found Word of Healing in these areas, guess I should go back to Elona and River

I cant Remember the name of the boss but Eviscerate is from the Warrior Titan Boss at the Three Portals within the Hells Precipice mission(Final Ring of Fire Mission, hell THE last mission).

I wish i had SoC with me when he used it, cause im not looking forward to going through all that again :/

Blood is Power- (Snake Dance:Cry Darkday[Shadow])

I believe Power Block is on a Mursaat boss in Abaddon's Mouth. I'll have a look sometime when I'm feeling brave and find a good party to see if I can be sure of this and get the bosses name.

The best places I've seen to look for skills are some of the Shiverpeak EA's(Snake Dance has like 12+ bosses), and the later Mursaat missions, where some of the bosses appear to have mulitple elite skills(cheaters!). The hard ones to find will be stances and situational skills- stances don't show up under the skill bar, and things like Martyr can be difficult to satisfy the conditions to trigger the boss to use it.

Anyone seen backbreaker yet? I imagine that one would be hard to miss after having spent 4 seconds flat on your back.

Good idea, try to check it out

Mmmh.. I didn't knew stances didn't appear on skill bar, thought they would flash...

So probably half the high-level bosses that don't seem to have elites have in fact elite stances... So might be worth trying to capture; if you have all the other skills he seems to be using...

To capture skills, you need to find a boss that has the skill you want, and as soon as he uses it, you use your Signet of Capture.

The SoC can be obtained by doing a fairly easy (but annoying) quest from Lion's Arch.

You don't need to quest for an SoC. They can be purchased as normal once you get to Denravi and beyond.

Also, capturing stances is a pain. About the only way to do it is to just spam your SoC and keep canceling it by pressing ESC and hoping that you catch the stance you're looking for. Fortunately, only Warriors, Rangers, and Mesmers have to deal with thta and they don't have many elite stances between them to worry about. But still, it's not easy.

Anyhow, nice going so far. Keep up the good work, guys.

Heard it was easier if you had all the skill the boss was using already, except the stance. That SoC would then pick the stance more easily, instead of the skill before/after.

Could anyone confirm or elaborate ?

It takes out the cancelling process out of the mix from what Rex says, because you can't take any other skill from him, but you'll still have to time it right while your getting whacked. It's definately "easier", but the time consuming part isn't getting shorter.

if you use a stance breaker(IE: wild blow) they usually cast the stance again right away.

Right, that can work (actually, I thought I had made mention of that, you just keep rapidly clicking through the chaff, if it's something you already have it doesn't matter, if it's something you don't, you can press ESC and cancel out of it, and you keep doing that - and, you know, survive - until you get your stance), as has been said, to make it a bit easier. But it presupposes you'll have unlocked all the other skills first and that's something you can't always count on. Either way, you just have to keep slamming the SoC button and hope for the best.

As for Wild Blow, yes, but Wild Blow will only cancel a stance if it's evaded or blocked, unless something's changed and I don't know about it, and that means it's not very useful for getting something like Warrior's Endurance.

Just to add there is an Azure boss in Snake dance that also has Signer of Judgement.

I can't remember the name

I think its a random generated boss though.
