Here are some ideas for future community-wide boss battles:
-Spires that act as catalysts to amplify the magic of those standing around it. Spells cast near this spire turn into powerful nuke versions of those spells that rain down on dragons and big mobs of enemies
-5 squads. One squad to to keep the invading enemy at bay. They will shield and DPS. The other 4 squads split up and scour the map for centaur villages to slaughter. Collect Tamini blood and pour them into the cauldron in the middle of the map. Once there’s enough blood, a giant dragon will be summoned to fight by your side. This is a community summoning effort.
-Two big groups: one group deal with the ground efforts and the other group attack from the sky via Airships! A fleet of airships hover above the Elder Dragon below but they are being attacked by Aetherblade airships above them. Players who are good at jumping puzzle should volunteer to be in the sky group because the tasks up there require them to jump from airship to airship and jump to the top of ships to defend against Aetherblades from above.
-Or we can collect supplies and build giant Pacific Rim mechs to battle the Elder Dragons
Coming from someone who really couldn’t care less about the loot, yeah… I like what I saw. Tequatl isn’t just stacking and damage. If that was the case, you’d have a lot more kills. It requires coordination, communication and/or experience.
I mean, if you think this is impossible… man… clearly you don’t remember MMO fights that would take even top guilds WEEKS to successfully down. This is difficult only to those who don’t know how to work together.
I was the giant Norn you saw running around in his underwear jumping up and down the whole time and shooting off fireworks left over from Dragon Bash. Occasionally I swapped to town clothes and rode around on my broom stick. Epic, totally epic. I’m sure it will be all over YouTube soon.

two major differences. 1- those mmo’s you’re talking about probably had instanced battle where you can chose the team you’ll be killing the boss with. In gw2 its a soup of randoms with bunch of ppl that aren’t even max level or AAFFKK in the server/overflow for ages. 2- for something that took weeks to beat, was the reward anything close to gw2’s 3 fine and 2 masterwork garbage you salvage on sight equivalent? I don’t think so.
wow this site even sensors you for writing afk what a joke
Fact: every Thief tells you to “l2p” when the subject is to nerf stealth.
yeah it’s pretty obscure, but get someone in the main server to “ferry” you over (get invited to their party and right click on their portrait). Ask a guildee.
Also ask if the commanders are on Team Speak or Mumble because it makes a world of a difference. At least ask around for the strategy. This is old school level of community cooperation.
