There’s no point doing it any more…

I get there and it’s an unorganized clusterkitten. I’ll die twice, say kitten it and leave. I know it needed a change, but thats just dumb. I went down there for the first time in two weeks, died once and left.

Make the fight harder, but not so stupid I avoid it like a hooker with herpes…

Why not try to organise it then??
Tequatl, Balthasar, Karka queen are examples off bosses that needs organisation.

something thats working pretty well on my server.
Some people have been guesting to a server where organised runs are being held to see how it is done. After that they started making a guild. Only requirements:
1: represent during tequatl fights
2: join atleast once every few attempts

They do several things for their members and others showing up.
a: they have ranks in the guild based on the roles people play during the fight. This way you have people on the turrets and in the turret defense team that know what they are doing.
b: they have commandors in the two dps zergs who are helping people in the zerg in explaining what to do, how to stack up etc.
c: They provide spoken instructions in mapchat and on a public TS-server
d: They advertise professional attempts in mapchat and in lions arch

And they are doing it and doing it succesfully.

Arise, ye farmers of all nations
Arise, opressed of Tyria!

As with large raids in those other games, the number of players who want to organize something on this scale is small.

Other games? What other games. Large guilds can organize Teq raids pretty efficiently..

Queen Of Macabre – 80 Thief

Before LFR, raiders were typically characterized as a small portion of the overall population. Of that group, how many were doing the work of organizing?
How many of the GW2 player base are participating in the Teq event?
On how many servers do Teq raids not take place?
If Teq takes 80-200 people, how many of those players are doing the organizing?

The post was a comment that the number of times the event goes uncompleted are a symptom of disinclination on the part of many to do the often thankless work of organizing. It was not a dig at those who do.

the effort it takes to take down teq doesnt stand in relation to what you get. people just don’t care anymore after beating it once.

Part of taking down Teq, is you basically need a zerg camping the event during the 1-hour spawn window.
No zerg, no win, and an hour is a long time standing around waiting for nothing to happen.

A simple 5-minute warmup event “Oh dear, we have inbound, warm up the cannon and everyone get ready!” gives people notice that it’s about to start. They have time to show up and get organized, no need to camp the event anymore.
