Talk:A Kindness Repaid
In reference to the "bugs" noted in the X-T 3R-M1N-8 achievement section, I can verify:
1. Players CAN be targeted despite being stealthed.
2. The "bogus" boon that is applied definitely DOES NOT do anything.
3. The lack of bundles being dropped by the power golems was not seen. To the contrary, as soon as it becomes apparent the player is on course to beat the 3 minute timer, the power golems start to spawn at a much increased rate - apparently in order to slow down the fight significantly. At times as many as 10-12 of the ley energy packets were laying around the area, none of which I was able to pick up due to already holding the maximun.
4. The "embiggening" effect in the final 1/3 of the fight IS NOT a bug. Of the 11 times I've done this fight, not once has it not happened. Clearly another ploy to slow down the fight.

I removed the paragraph whining about how difficult this fight is because my experience was the opposite but I almost didn't try it because that writeup was so discouraging (and I generally suck at GW2 so if I can do it YOU can do it!). I found the Scruffy fight at the end of part one to be MUCH more difficult and annoying than this one where you can't die and the mechanic is actually quite simple and the fight is shorter than some.
