honestly I am disappointed with the new fractal it's easier compare to the previous ones because it took me only 2 attempts to clear it. But I hope the CM will be more challenging.
I'm am disappointed with the ending story and the map too... too short, too rushed... That expansion didn't give the amount and quality the passed expansions did.
yeahhhhh I previewed the Tier 2 obsidian and I'm not sure I'm going to do that and if it has as many hoops as you say... probably going to pass on that. The Tier2 doesn't look any different, just has floaty glowy bits... sooooo kinda eh...
It's kinda tedious if you already have your T1 set done, but not awful imo. If you are still working on T1 it's kinda free tho, as you can do both at once.
I agree,i remember going for obsidian heavy instead of envoy hoping the update gonna do something,but now that we know they just slapping Led light on the armor....the regret and disappointment man
@@joyboy6067 I've found out that the new dye channel on the T2 version actually make quite a difference (atleast for the medium armor I'm going for). Also, when you make a T2 piece you also get a slumbering skin that just has the extra dye channel and details but not the shiny runes and in combat animation, if you dislike those.
Tbh it''s been a while already since Anet took a course on making dpscheck golems instead of bosses, there's no mechanic that kills you if you fail it or anything. Just take 5 unkillable celestials healing/barriering each other and don't forget to bring a cup of tea with toasts because well, damage sponges. I honestly have no idea why anyone even plays these strikes and fractals, they are an insult to any gamer who's placed a bit higher than "type password for dps output" in the food chain. The only way to do them is like you do, with random challenges (soloing, or without gear, or without healers etc) because they are not fun by themselves.
I do wish that Anet shakes things up a bit before GW3. because GW2 started great (except for the story/lore, gw1 was way better), but with time the content is getting less and less exciting especially after EoD (again, eod story was a 15yo level writing) eod presented some good things, new area, mount, specs, gear, mechanics, boats, fishing, and other things. Soto on the other hand, I think the only good think was the weapon system, other than that, it's really bad, and the T2 legendary armour is just a pathetic and lazy thing. GW2 is my favourite mmorpg for many years and still, so it saddens me to see this. Anyway, luckily Lord Hizen is one of the good things with gw2, him and some other youtubers are doing better job for the game than Anet. Well done! : )
15:57 ohoh, he almost got you. almost, but not quite. amazing footwork, a build fit for kings and a presence on the battlefield as if you designed this place yourself. 👍
like i mentioned in the video, eparch mechanics require to move to pick up orbs almost all the time, and being a melee is a painful to deal with, so i switched to the mirage build to have the ability to DPS from range, CC, and teleport to pick orbs faster before boss starts consuming them. "dont pick all orbs"
You bug killed the fight? Lame. Not collecting Malice makes the boss hit himself, it applies condis to itself scaling with the amount of entities hit. The clones speed this up, as would necro minions. You can see the effect by the amount of conditions on the boss in this video.
Bold of you to assume I knew about this info on the day release, tho my focus was to collect gluttony orbs to stop the boss from healing itself, but this good to know about the malice orbs.
@@LordHizen didn't assume you knew about this (tho it was discovered day1 and it's weird that you didn't notice the condi counts) It's just what happens You can currently kill it without doing anything at all, the boss just kills itself.
E.g. you'd need ~40k sustained dps for your killtime, without including any blue orbs. Hard to gage, but i'd say with all the movement / build and collecting stuff you maybe did a third of that? Arc sadly doesn't tell, it just adds the extra dmg to players.
was pretty much my thoughts on it i had made all 3 sets and when i saw what i had to do for theses so so shinny versions i gave up not worth the time of effort at all kind of killed it for me to.
The build is the same one I linked in the description the only difference is that I changed Sigil of strength to sigil of absorption to steal the boss boons. The camera settings is normal just make the field view further
I was really hoping there would be some, you know, obsidian on the armor sets but alas! They just add more bloody particle effects to the visual clutter of this game :c
I have trouble soloing Eparch at tier 1 and you solo it tier 4... I have such a long road ahead of me. :'D I don't understand how you manage to burn is breakbar so quickly. I'm doing 2350 damage of hard cc on his breakbar it's still not down. I watched attentively your video, and counted 4 ambush dagger from you and your clones (4x4x100) and 1 pistol 5 (1x250) which means 1850 of hard cc (no malice globule effect on you). Is it the soft cc doing, I dont know, maybe 650 damage? Or did I miss something? Anyway, GG, that's freaking impressive.
Anet should study your combat capability, have AI study it, and make a boss, that is just impossible even for you. And when you finally group up to defeat it. The fanfares and trumpets will echo for ages.
I would have loved for the T2 armor to grow obsidian shards around it, like a second layer of armor (similar to Eureka but more elegant) But oh well...i'll just get the medium chest piece for now, i like that one at least
As seemingly effortless as ever, although it did look a bit of a challenge from here(?) My main is still my scourge, first gen Hizen build, I tried the later version, but this still works well enough for me. Mesmer is not a class I play a lot, but this gets me curious to try. Well done as always, you rock 🙏🙏🙏 would love to join your guild, but don't feel myself worthy😏
Trash fractal for sure. way too long and shockwave oneshotting you unless you can super it with dodge. Tho I got it completed with some randoms with only one who who could tell what to do it did not feel any fun at all.
16:58 Dang that mistlock trigger so close to the end at 2% .. were you scared when that happened or was it expected that the mistlock revive would need to come in play towards the end?
So safe to say that cele mirage is keeping up with cele vind right now? Love both of them but leaning heavily into mesmer due to support chrono and virt right now. Outplayed herald/vind to much.
What made you decide to use this older build instead of the more recent version with staff, cleansing sigils and relic of Akeem? Just wanted more dazes maybe?
Well now I know what to do if I'm bored! Btw, if I wanted to do CM Strikes or Raids for the legendary shoulders, are there any that can be solo'd or duo'd?
the cele builds that i make are meant for open world or solo play. if you going to join endgame content raids, strikes, or fractals you should bring a group build since there will be a healer, tank and dps support to cover everything for you.
The last time GW2 had any challenging endgame was back when raids where still a thing. Content has been out for less than 12 hours and someone has already soloed it. This game is a joke.
Each update is weaker than the previous one, I hope that the next expansion is decent and that they put this expansion at the corresponding price 50% off. 😂
Most players: Oh no, it's the Final Boss!
Final Bosses: Oh no, it's Lord Hizen!
ArenaNet: Oh no, he's at it again!
dont need a full fractal party, when you can just clone yourself to be the fractal party.
Areanet should introduce "Lord Hizen Mode" for every content hahaha
You mean if lord hizen joins he will automatically get a debuff of -200% of everything?
(And he will manage it anyway 😂 )
honestly I am disappointed with the new fractal it's easier compare to the previous ones because it took me only 2 attempts to clear it.
But I hope the CM will be more challenging.
I'm expecting the Deimos/Cerus encounter in CM would just be Deimos W4 normal raid encounter plus Cerus normal strike encounter lol.
I always think fractals is a different mode catering speedrunners.
انت مجنون😂😂😂
I'm am disappointed with the ending story and the map too... too short, too rushed... That expansion didn't give the amount and quality the passed expansions did.
Dude ur just a freaking monster. Nobody can solo this like u
as always, great job hizen. you deserve a npc in this game.
Would be so cool
In the next DLC, a white haired secret boss, based on a legendary commander, needs to be a group content, except for the man himself XD
yeahhhhh I previewed the Tier 2 obsidian and I'm not sure I'm going to do that and if it has as many hoops as you say... probably going to pass on that. The Tier2 doesn't look any different, just has floaty glowy bits... sooooo kinda eh...

You can't go wrong with Stormblood theme from FFXIV.
Regardless well done.
oh that's the music we are listening to?
To be fair… at this point I am waiting for GW3 While playing other games.
Tbh it''s been a while already since Anet took a course on making dpscheck golems instead of bosses, there's no mechanic that kills you if you fail it or anything.

Welp that was quick 😂
so like recycled raid mechanics into fracs is what theyre doing now?
I'd be dead in 5 seconds...
hahaha prolly me 2
OH my god he did it again
I do wish that Anet shakes things up a bit before GW3. because GW2 started great (except for the story/lore, gw1 was way better), but with time the content is getting less and less exciting

15:57 ohoh, he almost got you. almost, but not quite. amazing footwork, a build fit for kings and a presence on the battlefield as if you designed this place yourself. 👍
Awesome as always hizen, mind sharing the build* you using here?
i stopped playing cause of the redundency ad time wasted but Lord Hizen videos are always hilarious and cool.
need a Hizen Fractal... or Raid...
Wow, excellent as usual!!! How do you experience the difference between herald and mirage for solo content?
like i mentioned in the video, eparch mechanics require to move to pick up orbs almost all the time, and being a melee is a painful to deal with, so i switched to the mirage build to have the ability to DPS from range, CC, and teleport to pick orbs faster before boss starts consuming them. "dont pick all orbs"
How on earth did you the first part solo? For me it's impossible to repair the astral purifier nodes without any help ... permanent invisibility :P
You bug killed the fight?
Lame.
Not collecting Malice makes the boss hit himself, it applies condis to itself scaling with the amount of entities hit. The clones speed this up, as would necro minions. You can see the effect by the amount of conditions on the boss in this video.

@@LordHizen didn't assume you knew about this (tho it was discovered day1 and it's weird that you didn't notice the condi counts)
It's just what happens
You can currently kill it without doing anything at all, the boss just kills itself.
E.g. you'd need ~40k sustained dps for your killtime, without including any blue orbs. Hard to gage, but i'd say with all the movement / build and collecting stuff you maybe did a third of that? Arc sadly doesn't tell, it just adds the extra dmg to players.
People stacking minions currently get 100k dps, it's really substantial. Having clones was really lucky there, saved you a lot of time
Now mirage better than vindicator/herald in solo?
Lord Hizen, need new tier list, please😊
This one looks like raid, people should try this one on T1-4 before starting raids if they are afraid from raids.
that's the best Mirage playstyle i saw since i started playing that game .. Gj man
Solo Convergences CM when??
was pretty much my thoughts on it i had made all 3 sets and when i saw what i had to do for theses so so shinny versions i gave up not worth the time of effort at all kind of killed it for me to.
How is this build for open world champs and bounty solo?
Just built different tbh
KROOF!! MY LOVE
Does this build still exist after the dagger nerf?
Sitting next to my coworker who knows nothing about GW2 and saw this video and told him about you and what you do. You’re a legend. Absolute madlad
Is anyone else waiting to see what he does with the new spears??
Oh man, I need to find your build on the mesmer... love it. Great video as always, cheers :)
check the description
What's the deal with all the condies on the boss?
Where is the same build of this clip ?And can i see your camera position in the settings somewhere? Thank you.
The build is the same one I linked in the description the only difference is that I changed Sigil of strength to sigil of absorption to steal the boss boons.
The camera settings is normal just make the field view further

Another content for mesmers only
Your "Build video" doesn't include a herald build my man..

I have trouble soloing Eparch at tier 1 and you solo it tier 4... I have such a long road ahead of me. :'D

Hizen بطل و استاذ
My man you're literally the GOAT of GW2! Don't ever let ANet win one brother!
Music from FF LOL
How'd you get past the astral purifier nodes? I kept getting knocked off by the things before finishing them?
stability mantra
@@LordHizen thanks a bunch!
Fantastic!! Are there any other builds you would've been willing to try this on?
My man! Once again they try to hold our guild leader down and once again he slaps them around like their a lil tiny babbby. Love it keep it going.
While a fractal player crying about the new fractal, lord hizen show that everyone can be better at the game and can just have fun
they should add cool title for skilled player who clear group content like fractal or strike mission solo
What's the song?
0:30 so this is the final version of the legendary armor? :-) or another tier 3 is coming out sometime in the future?
Just for record; you can change color of the floating things, they follow the 4th slot as color
Nevjerovatno, svaka čast! Upravo gledam Muk-a i ekipu kako ne uspijevaju nikako.
You are apsolutly;
🙌👑🙌The King of GW2🙌👑🙌
Share gears and traits for mirage pleasd
check description
did this one solo too yesterday, was super easy compared to the old 100 cm solo xD
The music, is this Leviathan in FF XVI rising tide song?
Incoming Mesmer nerfs.
Next fractal boss needs to be Lord Hizen himself!
Man this feels even better that Mesmer is my main
So safe to say that cele mirage is keeping up with cele vind right now? Love both of them but leaning heavily into mesmer due to support chrono and virt right now. Outplayed herald/vind to much.
both mirage and vindi are good but the new fractal boss makes melee fight more stressful, so any range DPS will have an advantage.
Hizen is just too good to be calling this easy lol
Meanwhile my pug needed two healers lmao
What made you decide to use this older build instead of the more recent version with staff, cleansing sigils and relic of Akeem? Just wanted more dazes maybe?
the dagger pistol has more damage than staff because of the midnight king relic, check the video in the description
good job! those perfectly time dodge and no teleport utility , i wish i could do that too
hello hizen, great content as always
herald is fun to watch and have the ability to deal with many mechanics but this one wasnt on herald favor
He fought midnight during daylight
What's the build?
in the video description
Poor Devs just making a cool fractal and this man crushing their work in hours
Cool? Lazy dews just do trash, nobrain aoe spam cover all area, thats realy cool gameplay, yes.
Please link the build
in the video description
As always great content! and your gw2 comment speak for many in the game 👍🏼
hello hizen,How do you deprive your enemies of their buffs?
sigil of absorption instead of strength sigil to steal their boons when i interrupt
💀💀💀💀💀
This music genuinely reminds me of the melody used in "Cascada - Everytime we touch" and it makes the vibes so weird
pretty sure its the wii home screen music
Lol not the meme intro part, but during the fight
Well now I know what to do if I'm bored!
Btw, if I wanted to do CM Strikes or Raids for the legendary shoulders, are there any that can be solo'd or duo'd?
Fractals - all of the if you have time and the skill
Strikes - none cause they have a timer
CM is not possible, lets say you can avoid mechanics but the enrage timer will kill you.
Well, that was faster than i thought
Is this really tier 2 ? There is going to be a tier 3 armor, right ?
but this is the final part of the expa? 🤷🏾♂️
oh man, it's intense
Are your cele builds good for this kind of content, or it's better go full damage if you do it with pugs
for Pugs you usually have a Healer, so you can go full dmg. Cele is more for solo since it increases survivability a lot.
the cele builds that i make are meant for open world or solo play.
if you going to join endgame content raids, strikes, or fractals you should bring a group build since there will be a healer, tank and dps support to cover everything for you.
