Hey guys. I was wondering if you could provide a little more information here. What achievement didn’t progress for you? What achievement were you expecting to complete? What were you doing to get progress? This will help us investigate.

I can confirm on our kill at Blackgate, I was at Cobalt. My ‘Wurmslayer’ achievement did not progress by +1 for downing the Cobalt head. Everybody else in teamspeak (almost all of the ~50 there) at Cobalt agreed that it was bugged and nobody got progress on the achievement.

I am 1/3 on Wurmslayer still, and had 1/3 prior to our full-kill when I had killed Amber in a previous run.

Achievements are not bugged, you just need to make sure you get enough damange on the head. The damage numbers you are seeing can often come from adds.

It is like any other event, if you do not do enough damange you won’t get the chest / achievement.

If it were bugged no one could get them. And the majority of players actually gets credit when a head is killed. For me it was perfect on every three heads the first time I killed each.

Again congrats to the second kill to everyone who participated. Now let’s make it farmable. Still need that mini xD

I still prefer that the title would only be available to teams that actually killed the head. But I understand why is was done this way, so that people can get the title without hoping for other team to do the kill as well (see Marionette Dodging Frustrations)

Guesting to win an event? No thank you, This is lame. The events should be doable in every server not only in specialized servers. Great idea, bad design and worse implementation.

You’re building a desk, you have nails, wood and everything, but lack a hammer. You could go to the room next to the one you’re in to pick one up, but instead you say “No, thanks. I shouldn’t have to walk 10 steps to get that hammer in order to build this desk” and then end up feeling bitter because you wanted that desk.

That is nice and all, just saying that none of 50 people got any credit at Cobalt when BG killed all 3 heads. This either means that each person needs to do more than 2% of its health-bar for credit, or the achieve is bugged.

Still got the chest for killing and all that…

I was there too and I can confirm that everyone I had asked that was at Cobalt, including myself, did NOT receive credit for the kill. If 50 people consistently got the same result, I’d say it’s a pretty lame bug. If it’s a damage issue… well… I don’t know what to tell ya :p. But when I killed Crimson head I did about the same amount of damage give or take, so, dunno.

When I bought the desk pack, the seller told me I have all I need in the box

if people rely on guesting on one server for succeeding an event, then why did they split us into servers if we all queue in one?
Bad design from the start

I did a fair good job of playing whack-a-mole with that cobalt head and got the screenie showing it, but didn’t get the achievement as most others on BG Cobalt tonight didn’t either.

I was on Amber for the second Deso kill, and all I could see in map and local chat after (apart from the celebrations) was people saying they didn’t get the achievement progress. There were also people from Crimson and Cobalt saying it didn’t progress. That’s not the majority of players actually getting credit, that’s the majority of players not getting credit.

Either it’s bugged, or the individual damage threshold is ridiculously high.

Likewise, I didn’t get credit for defeating the Cobalt head during the successful attempt, but we went again 2 hours later, defeated the Cobalt head again, only this time I did get credit. I saw at least a couple of people post in chat that they also got credit the second time when they hadn’t the first time.

Refering to the Admin Post:

I was at the wurm kill on cobalt on saturday got 1/3, i was then 2days trying to get crimson head and manged it so i had 2/3. I was then always on amber also at the last wurmkill of desolation 20h ago. i still had 2/3.

but nvm today we killed amber head and crimson head again and got cobalt head to <5% and i was again on amber and got my achievement. nearly got the kill O.o 2-3sec more next time

finally i got title. now i can just care about wurmkills

Amazing event.

Its quite taff for smaller servers or not so dedicated servers to do wurm event and i also spent lot of my time a player from millersound to get on desolation, far shiverpeaks, riverside map.

Millersound sadly looks quite dead in pve and wvw. they dont even try to organize wurmtries…

They use exploit flamethrower to kill it would not call it legit kill,if you let the people in zerg gear use it they can spam the red button forever without chasing the worm…

Apparently if you have a successful run where you kill all three heads, the achievement bugs. However, if you fail but kill a head it registers. Makes sense.

Not true. Got my last wurm head on a win.

Then it’s just dependent on the particular wurm you’re fighting. No one on cobalt got credit on a win, yet amber did. Cobalt got killed on another run and failed, and it counted. It’s just weird.
