Defeating Glint

Glint is, for the first half of her life, a rather easy opponent. Her attacks can be rather strong, but with the 8 characters you can bring in, there is ample oportunity to heal. THe problem with the battle isn't how mcuh life you have. It's how much time you have. When Glint's life comes low she uses a spell called crystalhibernation. Oddly enogh, it's rather easy to work around, but no one bothers to read it and/or listen to instructions. Crystal hibernation heals Glint everytime you use a non-phyical attack on her. Now, this is going to sound silly, but trust me, most poeple can't seem to figure this out. If non-physical attacks heal her...then use physical ones. Everyone fight for the first part, but when she casts the spell, make the mages fall back and only let people with noon magical weapons go in. And don't cast spells. Spells count as non-physical, just as truncheons, canes, staves, wands and all other similar things do. However, despite your brutish attacks, glint does still heal up some. An attack that absolutly works wonders is poison. Poison sucks her down just like everything else in its way. It an absolute must to bring with you.
So, all in all. Bring some poison attacks, a few warriors, a couple healers, and make sure to have the necessary people fall back at the right time.

Thanks  crazysheep1 on 07/25/05 09:56

Nice guide. Thank you for all those tips.

More spells that work  Cracker_Jed on 07/25/05 17:25
 
FYI, some Necro spells count as physical damage, such as Life Siphon, Life Transfer, and all spells that steal health (vampiric gaze/touch, shadow strike, etc).

all degen spells are ok in general just the biggest thing i can say is.... DONT NUKE! Probably the WORST thing you can do there!

Another Tip  Brutal_Mauler on 07/27/05 17:48

The best way to work around crystal hibernation is to make sure she doesn't cast it at all. This is where Rangers come in handy. Last time me and a guild mate deafeted Glint, we were both rangers, myself with poison arrow and dirupting shot and my guildie with disrupting shot. Everytime you see crystal hibernation pop up underneath Glints health bar we both used disrupting shot and she never got it off.

Wow  Subito on 07/28/05 02:39

I forgot about disrupting shot. Thanks for the add. That was a really good one. And, i'm not contradicting you, especially because things change so often...but i'm not sure if life siphon and them counted as physical. When i did it, she seemd to heal. But i'd be glad to be wrong. It'd be very nice to know that it's okay to use those attacks.

Necros are great for fighting Glint, ingoring the degenerations life stealing, curses etc, there still can do the majority of the damage to glint. getting your health low (100 or low works best), then casting Grenth's Balance can do over 300 damage in one hit. you can even do this when you have full health because of the difference in your max health.


Lvl 1 Protection to its Max  StarcraftGhost on 08/03/05 07:51

A noticed, if you avoid going near her (therefore avoid her attacking you), until the Crystal Breath wears off, it is highly possible to Tank her indefinately with 2 Monk and 1 Warrior (Most parties usually have this, if anything they have 1 human monk and Mhenlo). A Protection Spirit at any lvl decreases Glint's 100 damage to around 30-50. Also, Glint ONLY attacks the closest targets. If only 1 Warrior is in her face, she will ONLY attack that 1 warrior. So spamming Protection Spirit while another monk heals (and assuming both Monks are good), you can Tank her all day while other allies may attack unharmed. Please note you might not be able to pull this off as soon as Bonus starts since Crystal Breath is usually on Casters.

one hting is eles are no use here because if they cast area of effect with crystal hibvernation then you dead ur best off bringing 2monks,3 warriors,2necros and a mesmer with backfire this shud work effctivley

to make a good defense let a 55 monk take the damage thats what i did an my party just basshed in without taking damage that let the monks roam freely.
