Guild Wars 2

I have been in an airship event instance with 2 other people and even alone. Obviously, no chance to succeed. I guess this is a bug?

It appears that there are multiple instances of the battle, so that the zerg is split up a bit. The problem is, that you obviously have no control which one you join, and therefore if not enough players are available the game randomly decides whether you should have a chance to win or not.

You can actually enter with the zerg. As you can see, there are 3 portals, one near every knight. All you have to do is enter the same portal the zerg does. We did so, and everyone got in the same room.

So did we. It didn’t work.

There must be a randomness to it. I was in a party with a few guildees, we did zerg kills for the knights, and the whole zerg entered the same portal, yet our party members were still split up into different rooms. It was actually rather annoying cause some of our group succeeded, and entered the Scarlet instance afterwards, and one of our party members went in with us not knowing better, and his group hadn’t even finished their battle.
