Was this intended? 80% of server population standing in 1 zone for hours at a time?

If 80% of people want to go do something else, what’re you gonna do? Force them to do the things you want?

New (or revised) content in general has a tendency in an MMO to cause population drop in old content.

Lets be honest, 80% of a server population never does WvW ;P

Yeah it’s not like they aren’t giving people incentives to get back into wvw starting in a few weeks..

Yes because WvW is a big pile of dung that could be fun by fixing some small problems. Instead they insert a zerg friendly middle zone that is just a zerg camp spot. Now the small groups when fighting large zergs have no chance at all.

Awesome…two horrible changes at once.

That’s when you take other things than just the middle, dude.

Well at least you offered a potential solution for one of the complaints, now on to the big pile of doo.

You must be joking. That is actually disincentive to WvW in a few weeks.

Has it not been beaten because the challenge is too high, or because the design can result in random people dragging you down?

It’s a bit of both. The timer honestly wouldn’t be that awful if it was 20 or 25 minutes. Given that organizing a bunch of randoms is darn near impossible.

Follow the darkness into the depths, it’s more fun than the light can provide.

There isn’t really any reason to be standing there. Given that he pops on all overflows, you should go do whatever and then pop in when he spawns.

I don’t think you stand much of a chance in an overflow. The only way I see an overflow being viable is if you can get a big guild all to get into it and pull it off. That or wait a while for the average skill level to rise enough to pull it off (that may never happen).

Your best bet at beating Tequatl right now seems to be to get into an actual server map and do it there. That’s the place guaranteed to be full and have the most players working together. The overflows are full of refugees from multiple servers.

My overflow was full of people yelling at the people on the turrets, yelling at the people who died and wouldn’t WP and yelling at people who didn’t defend the turret or didn’t stand where someone else wanted them to stand. It’s like this content emphasises everything people hate about pugging and brings it to large scale open world events.

Right now it feels like to win you either need to be in a big guild capable of pulling it off on an overflow, or be lucky enough to be on the right server. I’d love to see an overflow full of randoms prove me wrong.
