Guild Wars 2

From my understanding, this achievement requires you to talk to the Balloon NPCs and hope that the event it gives you is the champ fight, while more than 90% of the time its either an escort or kill Aether enemies….

What was acceptable to me was the holograms & Aether enemies having a 50/50 chance and back during that update the chance of getting either was even but in this new Champ achievement it doesn’t seem like the case.

Also why is there a cool down on a limited time content?
How did you guys, the ones who did get this achievement? – Does this require me to camp a Balloon npc and hope within a hour or 2 that I will eventually get to fight the champ?

If you camp a balloon and constantly do the event, you will eventually rotate through all the champions. The events and champions rotate in order.

My point exactly….requires me to camp at a balloon for hours to complete this….

I actually got this (yeah it was probably a bit of luck) by just doing my 30 balloons.

My guild members were pretty good at letting others know which champ was up, too and where without starting it before other guild members got there.

Yeah, with a little luck you can easily get it while doing 30 balloons. Additionally the whole rotates through every champion over time thing if you feel like camping.

Cry me a river.

It’s a stupid easy achievement. You can get it by simply camping out balloon spots once in a while. You don’t have to do it in one sitting.

Methinks you posted in the wrong thread by accident.
