Guild Wars 2

I’d like to start a list of events that are regularly zerged after the ms introduction and do not scale enough or do it in a way that makes them a chore. Will probably make it easier for Anet to tweak them, if they want to ever get around to it…

- Gavbeorn’s Point defense/recovery (Cursed Shore) – during the defense the spawns are too seldom and sometimes it’s actually impossible to defend the event, as there are too few mobs to deplete the scaled counter. During the recovery it’s usually 40 people waiting for 4 regular mobs that spawn every 10 seconds or so. Not exactly exciting.

- The whole Ulgoth event chain (Harathi Hinterlands) – people strive to hit any centaurs on the way, as they tend to die almost instantaneously. Not camping champions and not being a zerker means you’re probably not getting any boxes. The summoned Earth Elemental is not even for show, as it evaporates as soon as its model finishes loading. The centaur is completely defenseless too, of course.

- The Golem mk II pre-event. (Mount Maelstrom) – it’s done in a blink of an eye, in its current state it might as well be removed completely. Might use some harder trash running around the Golem itself, too.

- Fire Elemental (Metrica Province) – it dies in 40-50 seconds, nobody has to dodge, as the fight will be over before they die. Needs a bit more hp and some means to kill the zerg.

- Shatterer (Blazeridge Steppes) – as usual, does nothing against a zerg and is a hp sponge. Might scale less in hp and more in minions. Some deadly aoe around the paws (and reaching to the infamous hill) would also be a nice addition.

- Grawl attack on Concordia (Timberline Falls) – a farming spot now, those grawl die at spawn and are utterly defenseless against the players. Needs more vets / elites at higher player loads.

These are a few from the top of my head, I’ll add some more when I get the chance to roam the world (all work and no play…), hope you have some of your own to share.

For greater loot. And stuff.
