    Default King's Breach - Spikeless

    This achievement seems impossible, I have seen so many others getting it but with serveral attempts I have not found the way to complete this.

    Most of the time, I get spiked because it NEVER shows the white marks, So i'm moving back and fourth from 2 big plates, and I think its paused for a second or two and then BAM! Slapped in the face by spikes I didn't even see from the ground. I'm not standing anywhere close to walls, and i'm getting sick of running this dungeon just for one cheev that never works.

    Any idea on how to get it? ._.

    The spikes only hit when they come up, not while they are up. Stop looking for white puffs, and go to the ones that last popped.

    As soon as spikes pop go stand on them then you wont have to look for the white lights

    It is easy as soon as you get the idea. Spikes only hurts when they pops up, as soon as they are up and done, you switch to that spot and then wait for the next one to pop up and be done, and then you switch to that spot.
    You will not be hurt moving to a spot were the spikes are already up, important thing is that you wait until they are really up and then you switch.

    If it comes down to it, I'm pretty sure you can just go as dps and ask if you can sit outside the room while the rest of the group kills him for you.

    Edit: Unless it requires you to be in combat with him.

    Nah, its not that big a deal and I will get it sooner or later, almost had it last night. I may have to see if I can just stand there through his furry thing now, most of the other mechanics that used to hurt can just take now as the tank.

    I'm 99% sure you can interrupt his mathosian fury.

    This one's just one of those annoying ones to be a melee DPS for. I also dreaded the ability to get it, but I eventually did. Some fights it feel like spike rotations are kinder than others, but the only real tip has pretty much been given.

    I'm 99% sure you can just take the hits even as a lower geared tank these days. Just stand there and get healed through it.

    We tried this last night. My guildie that needed the cheesement hit the boss from range then stood outside. No cheesement for him. I guess you have to be in the room.

    There are a couple of spots at both sides of the room where, if you position correctly, you won't get hit by the spikes. Though you might not get to dps the boss due to line of sight depending on where he is tanked.

    I've gotten this one back in 1.0 when it was bugged and you always gotten the achievement and never got hit by spikes.

    Pro style, use timemachine and do it bugged.
