Guild Wars 2

I see some devs are active on the forums lately, so it won’t hurt to hurl a question here…

Could you reveal if there’s any work underway to fix the event scaling for larger amounts of players? Since the introduction of the megaserver large amount of players is pretty much the only thing we get and the numbers/strength of mobs are universally lacking. Most events consist of racing to creatures, trying to tag them before they evaporate.

It’d be great to see some truly dangerous elites (no, not champions, it’d just lure in more farmers) and such thrown in when 20-30 maxed out, ascended-clad maniacs roam the event…

I guess you haven’t tried the redone Claw of Jormag and others. Yes they have done this already.

Fire Elemental? 30 seconds. Taidha? Defenseless. Hundreds of usual, non-megaboss events? Pointless. :/

Just take a look at Gavbeorn’s defense/retake…

I guess there’s too many of them to change and Anet is simply unable to fix them all. Too bad, the gameplay really became much less enjoyable since everything got so crowded.

By the way, it’s funny how hard it has become to do your level renown heart on a fresh character. There’s always a bunch of 80s doing it at the same time, oneshooting all the mobs and even if you managed to hit it once or twice, it doesn’t seem to matter. It’s like you’re just tickling them.
Im sure that’s encouraging new players.
