Guild Wars 2

This achievement is much more difficult due to frequent placing of my character into the overflow where the scarlet invasions don’t exist and the message appears that I need to try again later.

If you can’t handle the volume of traffic, don’t apply the content. Or at least make sure the invasion always occurs in the overflow as well.

Invasion always occur in the overflow as long as you join within 10 minutes of it starting. They start every hour, on the hour, so as long as you join the map within 10 minutes past the hour you should always get an overflow where it’s happening (at least I’ve always gotten it).

If you miss it, you can also ask around guildies and friends for someone that is in an active invasion overflow, party with them, and join their overflow. I’ve had friends join with 10 minutes left on the clock and it still counted for their achievements.

I don’t believe they start every hour. I also can’t believe some of the one’s I’ve tried to get in we’re active for more than 10 minutes since I was watching for the messages.

They do start on the hour, every hour. As long as you get in between X:00 and X:10 you’ll be in an invasion.
