Guild Wars 2

Thank you so much !

Any EU server with an uncontested temple as well? Would be much appreciated.

Seafarer’s Rest has just opened Grenth.

Thank you so very much!

Thankyou very much Seafarer’s Rest[EU].Got my trinkets

EU Seafarers Rest UP

Are there any US servers with uncontested/open cathedral of silence right now aka grenth? I’ve been watching the timers for days and can’t seem to find any. In addition, noone seems to want to do it on sorrows furnace.

Same here. I can’t get enough people in Kaineng to do so either. I’d be willing to help any server willing to make a bid at it; just got to let us know.

It’s not open on Crystal Desert or Tarnished Coast either….. any other servers?

Same here, I seem to miss when servers open, just realized this forum. Planning to pick up a few pieces of gear from grenth that I’m making for another build (yeah yeah some is the same as baltha stats, but I prefer the grenth style).

I don’t want to clog up this thread, but all temple vendor gear looks the same.

I am also refreshing this page constantly for a Grenth server. Not up on JQ atm, will update if it is.

The back piece for grenth is what i’m after. I meant different stats not “different style”, misworded on my part.

Sorrows Furnace, we’re making a push for grenth!

Is the temple of grenth open anywhere or anyone doing it?

Any uncontested temple of grenth for NA?

Temple of Grenth on Blackgate is now opened. Cleansed as of few minutes ago.

UPDATE: Now closed.

Thanks a bunch!

any EU servers Grenth uncontested?

Darn, used my 2 guest passes today.

BG now~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

any NA grenth temple uncontested?

Hi,
any EU grenth temple uncontested?

Same, looking for grenth temple uncontested in EU. Thanks in advance for those who post updates!

Same here – looking for uncontested Grenth on an EU server

im still looking for uncontested grenth in NA

Grenth up on Seafarer’s Rest.

any EU servers have Grenth uncontested? Seafarer’s Rest has the event right before it ready to go, its just me here though :/

It is now OPEN on Tarnished Coast NA.

Hubcap.8417:

It doesn’t matter as you can still guest on full server.

Yes contested again

Any Grenth open in the EU now? Spent most of yesterday trying to get it completed, but not enough interest for it on Deso. :P

I tried, it was grayed out……. unless I had used up my guest passes.

Anyone know if its open on any EU server.
Or is planning to do it in the near future?

Hi,

One week ago, Anet released a new API: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/community/api/API-Documentation.

With this we can easily check if a specific event has been validated, in every servers.

This link: https://api.guildwars2.com/v1/events.json?event_id=57A8E394-092D-4877-90A5-C238E882C320 is the state of the event “Stop the Risen Priest of Grenth from retaking the Cathedral of Silence”.
If the event state become “Success”, just check on what server with this link: https://api.guildwars2.com/v1/world_names.json using “world_id”.

That is amazing, HyssT. I could kiss you.

I looked into the API system and it seems to be just the thing for us. Only flaw I’ve found with the system is that it only checks the last state of the event in question, so unless you check one that is the repeat-until-failure event (like the one you linked), “success” doesn’t mean the temple is uncontested; and conversely, if the temple becomes uncontested, and people don’t stay around for the repeat-until-failure event, that may never trigger a success even though the temple had been liberated.

It’s a step in the right direction, but it’s not a perfect solution yet.

I don’t know if ANet is periodically reading this, but one (hopefully) easy solution would be to include timestamps, preferrably in the form of “X minutes ago”, so one could check the event status of “Cover Keeper Jonez Deadrun as he performs the cleansing ritual” (which is the event that un-contests the temple) and determine by way of timestamps how likely it is the temple still is uncontested (4 minutes ago versus 21 hours ago, for example).

Nevertheless, thank you for the tip, HyssT! All the +1’s to you! I’ll keep checking that list on and off, but in the meanwhile, if anyone notices Grenth flipping to uncontested in any EU server, I’d be happy if you’d leave a little note here so I could finally get my last pieces of gear. :P

Any NA uncontested?

My bad Jigain, I specified the wrong event.
Now we have the right event, I think we can spam refresh this json, and wait for:
- “active” status,
- “succesful” status
- guest mode asap

As you said, if we wait too much between “succesful” and guest, temple will become contested again…

“Preparation” and “Warmup” might be good statuses (stati?) to look for as well. “Warmup” should just indicate the NPCs are moving to their respective positions following a successful pre-event, and potentially talking a bit. “Preparation” is a bit fuzzier though, but the way I read it, it’s defined as “any point where the event can be started, but the NPCs cannot start it themselves”, in which case it may require someone to talk to an NPC, NPC reinforcements to spawn, or the NPC to be rezzed by players.

To conserve your guesting, though, you should definitively (as you suggested) look for the three “in progress” states, those being Preparation, Warmup, and Active in order, then refresh every minute or so until you see if it lists as Success or Fail. Only then should you guest – unless you really want the loot from the fight, of course.

Uncontested al Elona’s Reach at the moment.
Just bought my soldier trinkets \o/

Do you know how long it’s been uncontested @junktroep.9082?

Nevermind, its DE server can’t guest to there.

Any NA servers open?

I would to know also on a NA server….

Northern Shiverpeaks (NA) just got Temple of Grenth cleansed few minutes ago, according to the API.

Thanks you very very much, its is actually open now

Liberated at 6:14 p.m. server time on NA Tarnished Coast.
