SoA - how to do skip after 2nd boss?

Hey guys,
As the question says…
After Ventunax, you fight the helion. Then you go right up the stairs to skip the pack of 3. At the top of the stairs there is another pack of 3. Is it possible to skip these by jumping over the wall just before them on the right? It seems you can’t invis them. I always seem to mess it up… :grimacing:

Yes, you can jump up the wall - warlock gates or door of Shadows can help get you up there. My female undead is too short to be able to jump up, so actual short races will also be too short. You can jump onto a taller friend’s two person mount if they stand on top of the wall.

if you realy have a problem skipping these then you can just carry an invis pot with you, normal ivisibility/ stealth effect may not work but invis pot will, just make sure you are topped up and you dont have a dot on you and you ll be fine

DH Tanks can prison the right most mob, venthyrs can tp, locks can gate, etc.

There are plentys of ways to get around this pack.

Skips like these shouldn’t be a thing…

Agree. Causes more stress than time saved…

Clearly you don’t know which pack we are talking about or you wouldn’t say that lol.

That group is rather nasty, so it’s better to be skipped.

Sounds like it doesn’t go exactly to plan though right?

Thanks all! I’ll give the jumping a few more gos. This is still necessary even if the DH imprisons the rightmost mob, right?

Failing that, will break out the invis potion

Reminds me a bit of Court of Stars in Legion where all groups would jump over a canal to avoid a nasty mob on the bridge but my little female undead was too small to make the jump… Pretty sure we spent more time trying to get me out of the canal than we would have spent killing the mob! :sweat_smile:

On the wall skip I can warlock gate, but need to remember to dismiss my pet first as otherwise he pulls everything anyway… Yep, been in so many groups where skips don’t go to plan!

I think there was one in Warlords in The Everbloom, where people would use their mammoth multiseater mount to get people up to the other side… I was always failing it :rofl:

You can come way closer and make your jump easier if the mob is imprisoned.

If you invis pot you should be able to go next to the mob no problem afaik.

Oh god, don’t remind me of that one… It’s one of the only dungeons I’ve ever left in the middle of - the whole group jumped up and ran off without me as (again as a female undead) I was unable to get up the slope… I jumped around frantically for a few minutes then quit the dungeon from sheer embarrassment… I didn’t do dungeons much when I first started! :sweat_smile:

You can jump to the platform on the right from the stairs without pulling them, though it’s obviously a lot easier if you just cc the right-most mob so that you don’t accidentally pull it while doing this (it is possible without cc but then accidents do happen).

I’ve never tried invisibility skipping these mobs, I’m assuming they have stealth detection, though is it only the sentinel? If so, you should be even more able to get past them by going to the right since you can also invis while doing the skip. Last resort: pull them and invis after, it should reset the pack. Given that they don’t aggro anyone else in your group.
