Guild Wars 2

I don’t know about you guys but lately the dungeon Arah has been almost impossible to access . The server I play on is Darkhaven and 95% of the time its closed. The events seem to be way to hard now since no one is there anymore. It’s kinda disappointing because the dungeon is hard enough and not being able to access it at all just brings me down. Let me know what you guys think and tell me how it is for your servers.

I’ve noticed this as well.

Fractals is taking up alot of peoples time lately. There just isn’t enough incentive for players to go back to Orr. It also doesn’t help that there have been countless reports of bugged paths and the event chain seems to always be bugged. It’s extremely frustrating. I wish ANet wold just remove the lock and let people do Arah whenever they felt like it.

On the contrary on Gunnar’s Hold – open almost all the time (except late night / early morning, i guess). We even organised a guild run to open it today morning, done all the events through, got lots of random people into it on the way.
We even learned that some bugs can be circumvented – like the promenade capture getting stuck; it bugs because a mob or two are spawned under the stairs, inside the textures – guardians spamming 1 with staff everywhere around can help with lots of ‘bugged’ events.

My tip – get 5+ guildies and start doing the events, then have one visit LA from time to time and shout on your main shard that you need more to liberate Arah, and that a big chest spawns after it’s done. No problem liberating Balthazar that way, too.
