Guild Wars 2

Anyone killed all 3 knights but still no achievement?
BTW great job TTS!

Picks or it didn’t happen. :p

How the hell did you kill them under 3 minutes? They were buffed last patch and people deal a lot less damage to them now.

I call b.s…

Confirmed kill and no achievement. But it might have had to do with wonky scaling, similar to what happened to the Wurm.

yup, we had split evenly among all 3 knights and we dropped the Blue and Red in under 2 mins. Green knight however took around 3 mins.
Entire overflow was ecstatic only to find out that there was no achievement awarded…

I was there. And yes, it happened.

A real downer about the lack of achievement.

Note the server time in the minimap, and the lack of achievement credit in the tracker. Excuse the justifiably angry people in map chat. We had been doing trying for this for a few hours, and it sucked that when we finally did it, it didn’t count.

Stop using imgur and upload pictures to these forums. All these 3rd party sites are getting on my nerves.

Yeah I was there. Epic fight but sad about no achievement. Hopefully no one else has this issue.

Yeah… I’d say this was bugged. I’ve fought a Knight where it just magically melted before. Especially after they increased the Knights Armor.

btw, can TTS do anything without Fire Elementals? You’re the reason we have this stupid timer on them now! Grrrrr……

I was there as well, and yes they died in about 3 mins, but for some reason I (and 1 other person in my party) got the 6 min achievement. No idea why, just happy I got it.

One thing I wonder, I got a bonus chest when I got the achiement, containing a masterwork bag (Assault satchel, knights bag? Something like that) full of greens and an obby shard. So a separate bonus chest from the one containing the deluxe gear boxes. Did anyone else who was there get that additional bonus chest? Is there still an issue with participation credit? Is the participation credit checkpoint for 6 min somehow higher than for simply killing the knights? No idea, just throwing that out there.

We use Fire Ele Powder, Orge Pet Whistles, and Seed Turrets. If we didn’t use them, Anet wouldn’t have known that they were OP.

They weren’t that overpowered, they die if a boss so much as looks in their direction with an AoE. Fire Elemental Powder was arguably the only really good one, with extra burning, while the Whistle is random and the Seed Turret is stationary (and only the healing one was useful)

A 30 second cooldown all but kills their usefulness, only really handy now in an entire zerg using them—-which seems to be what incited this irritating change to begin with.

On topic, so the huge meta-guild killed them in 3 minutes. So?…was this before the patch that made them even more annoying?

Just for you.

This happened at 11pm server last night, which is after the patch that supposedly fixed all the problems and forces the 50-50-50 split.

Nice work I guess. I have yet to see all 3 knights dead at the same time since patch
Glad I finished all the achievements before this nonsense patch.

Reading through the original patch notes, yes you were supposed to get that mystery bag of goodies, in line with the achievement that you also got. A bit strange how you did get it though, myself and most other people here can’t get it no matter how quick the knights get killed.

I got the achivement and the chest after killing the 1st knight.
