Guild Wars 2

So I just posted this on another thread and although it wasn’t particularly well worded or thought out. I do believe it would make sense.

Right now the difference between success and fail is whether you get competent people on the cannons.
My idea would be to allow EVERYONE to collect resources either by simply picking them up from nearby, or getting them as drops from enemies. These resources could be added together to create your own personal cannon.
Implementing this would allow everyone who actually wants to succeed do their part in killing Tequatl. Obviously the damage of these personal cannons would have to be lowered or else a well co-ordinated group would kill it in next to no time. Though, this would require a fair number of people to kill Tequatl within the given time limit.
More people building their own cannons after the minimum required would only help to speed up the kill.

Again, I don’t think I’ve worded this the best it could be but I do believe that having the ability to create your own personal cannon would prevent people from intentionally (or not) trying to screw the event up for everyone else.

Feel free to elaborate or correct me, or just any general ideas.
