The shatter gargoyles always cast imagined burden on me, and remove hex isn't very useful against 3 of them at the same time!!

Help me.

Use a run skill when the burden wears off, before they can recast it.
You could also try killing them. They tend not to cast that on you after they are dead

I did it with my lvl 12 r/w. Just avoid the gargoyles.

There's no need to go through the gargoyles on that run. Take the turn off before you get to them.

I have a running Mo/R and i make it past the gargoyls

Tip: Watch them move, try to go in front of all of em.

When they cast imagined burden on you keep moving, wait until it starts flashing then use a run skill as soon as it drops. At that point the gargoyles are attacking you from a ranged distance, when you use the run skill they should brake off (unless they cast imagined burden right away afterwards)

but I guess since I'm a Mo/R healing breeze makes the difference in this case.

If your a Mo/R i would suggest you use holy vail
or spell breaker.

or setup mending and healing breeze and walk the rest of the way.

I just love runing from nolani acadmy and trying to goto the courthouse.
walking the whole way seince theres 40 or so flash gorgoyls behind me... doing -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -2 -1 -1.... you would think armor has some sort of durability...

Is it possible for this guy to make a thread that doesn't start
with 'Damn?'

It's annoying.

It's annoying. Is it possible, (not to be rude) for you to not care?

I found it just as fast to kill them as it was to try and run past them. Other then running around them all together... for some reason I died trying to run through them... yet kept full health when I killed them... weird...

EDIT: Perhaps you meant, Hex Breaker?

if you are running then you will almost definately have spell breaker.

anyway there is a way around them. can't really describe it but there is a way.

I can run from Ascalon to Beacons Perch fairly easily. When I come to the shatter gargoyles i just carry on as normal but my char is a W/R so i have Sprint, Storm Chaser and Dodge so i can carry on running at least +25% above normal running pace. When i finally get Charge!{E} or Escape{E} then i'll be able to run it even quicker.

Well when I run up there i have the same problem smite hex purge conditions comes in handy.I still have to stop and fight them off.The charrs necro and mesmers are no problem only the gargoyals.When starting off doing this you don't have charge or spell breaker.
