Guild Wars 2

Okay, this was a kind of hilarious conversation in map chat yesterday. I figured I’d share it with the forum. A large group of players were all trying to get the achievement for jumping over the shockwaves of the Wurm Queen.

In Molten Alliance, worm gets inside YOU.

Inside the Wurm Queen?

That has to be one of the craziest battle tactics ever invented. No one in their right mind would want to be inside one of those things.

Heh, amusing convo, but the guy who made the suggestion is actually correct. Here’s some tips on getting the shockwave achievement:

1. Try and get everybody to stand on the same side of the Wurm, preferably in a narrow line. This increases the chances of all shockwaves coming in the same direction. Players who already have the achievement should stand further back so the Wurm doesn’t spit poison right at her feet (makes it easier for the guys in front to survive).

2. If you need the achievement, stand right in front of the Wurm, then start jumping when you see her raise her head for the slam. This will give you at least 1 shockwave credit each time. I got all 5 of mine in a single event this way.
