How to complete Colicoid War Games

Stage 1- Stage one is the turrets, the best way we found to do this is to have your healer stay off of the turrets and heal the group while your two best turret gunners pick up the slack on the free side. There are also some robot mobs in a overhead passage way, use crowd control if you are at minimum level, we demonstrate how to do so in the video.

Stage 2- Stage 2 is a puzzle type game, if you watch the video we show the order it is to be done in. There are two gate type puzzles. You have to keep channeling to hold the gates open. Use your pushback abilities to push them off to save time, you still get XP. The big elite that can't be pushed WILL PUSH YOUR GROUP OFF OF THE LEDGE AND KILL YOU, so try and fight with your back to a wall. Also he respawns. Don't run through the fire, you can avoid it by jumping across the corners, it will give you a high damage dot if you run through it.

Stage 3- Stage 3 is the final boss. He's pretty much tank and spank and comes out after you kill the three insect mobs in the Arena, so be ready. He puts fire AOE pools on the ground and you have a heads up before the fire goes under you with a red ring before he spits the fire onto the ground.

Sorry about me sniffeling a little, I'm kinda getting over a slight cold. Also my team mates where talking but you can only hear me in the video, I'm not talking to myself, promise :)

********tips**********

--- Keep your back to a wall if you can on the puzzle part. Also mobs will respawn, so complete it as fast as possible.

--- It's very important to interrupt the mob casts as much as possible.

--- There's actually a neat way to do the turrent part. You turn the turrent 180* around and fire at the colicoids behind the party member across from you. That way you have a better depth of field to shoot and can actually fire at them farther back before they get to the group.

--- We first ran this instance with a full group at the bare minimum level required to enter. It was tough and this is how we ran it so that we could complete it. Thought it might help others. We stuck to the same play-style when we came back to make the video later because we where showing how we managed it at the bare minimum level.

@qaquariusq It was only because my keybindings wouldn't apply, they have fixed it since then.

@rushthezeppelin Yeah, I was having an issue with my key bindings. No matter what I did I couldn't change them. It's like the apply button didn't work. BW fixed it now.
