— In-game description

DPS Training - Exercise 5: Engage Enemy Reinforcements is a level 15 Hall of the Novice exercise introduced in patch 3.2 with Heavensward.

General Information

  • This training exercise is the fifth in a series of seven for the DPS role in Hall of the Novice, which becomes available when you unlock duty finder.
  • Engage Enemy Reinforcements is exclusive to the DPS role, unlike the first and final exercises of Hall of the Novice. This means it will not show up in either healer or tank role exercises.
  • Success in this training exercise is based on whether you are still alive by the end of all of the rounds of attacks. The exercise will begin with a single opponent. After a short period, two more opponents will enter the battlefield. Similar to the exercise Defeat an Occupied Target, the concept is to work up from the weakest opponent on to the strongest. As such, the reinforcements are meant to be defeated first, and then the main opponent that the exercise began with. Once all three have been defeated, you have finished.
  • Similar to the second DPS training exercise, the only way to fail this exercise is through inactivity. Once the time runs out, you will be returned to the beginning of the duty to try again.

Rewards
