Guild Wars 2

I’m at 11/13 and not progressing. I’ve copied a map of tyria from wiki and systematically marked which maps I’ve completed. I’ve completed them all. Is there any help on this? Note: I’ve done all invasions from start to end – no Akittenvolved. Please help.

I believe you have to have helped destroy at least one Clockwork Champ in each of them. That could be wrong, but it’s something I thought I read in the forums here somewhere.

AFAIK this is how it works in general.

The achievement tracks two things: being present at the end, regardless of whether scarlet even shows up or not, and killing minions (watchwork mobs).

Killing aetherblades and molten don’t count, even if they do count for progression, so if you do an event killing only those, it won’t count for the achievement credit, even if you kill scarlet.

Also, the only watchwork mobs tracked are the ones spawned from the portals directly. The Twisted Menders can resurrect fallen watchwork mobs into Twisted Reavers (the ones with the tentacles), killing resurrected mobs won’t count either towards the achievement. It can happen if the players completed an event and left without destroying the remains and leaving a mender alive (they’re small, look like mosquitoes and barely do damage, easy to miss) he might have resurrected the rest of the mobs.

Also, there are also steam creatures that sometimes spawn during the portals, they do count towards the minions bar, but not really sure wether they count towards the achievement (just in case, assume they don’t).

A dev in the forum recommended killing at least one twisted champion and get loot from it, that way you’re sure you killed a clockwork mob that spawned from the portals (since the champions are never resurrected) and did enough participation into killing it that the game registered credit for you.

Wow! If this is how it works, then the Achievement descriptions are FAR too simplistic. I’d be pretty angry if I were one of those people stuck at 11/13 or 12/13, not knowing that this was the reason.
