Guild Wars 2

So loads of people seem to port in to the Straits of Devastation to do the Balthazar chain of events, ask if anyones around, there’s a lot of un-done events but the main chain isn’t up yet, and then just leave, and often complain about how no one is in the area.

Why don’t people group up and do the events? I’m on my first time going through Orr and I’m wondering if I’ll ever get some of these content done because no one wants to do the earlier events in the chains, just the ones with big loot reward.

You answered that question yourself. Many people are selfcentered and don’t want to help.

Done it loads of time, but at the moment with living story and the queen stuff people have better things to do I guess.

I tried doing it once, even managed to gather around 15 people, we couldn’t do it, it was too hard. We even tried multiple times, every time an event failed we tried again but it was impossible. Wasted about 3 hours that time, ever again.

It’s easier to do if you can get 2 pacts going at the same time.

It is possible with only one pact, but sometimes the moral just goes from hero to zero in the blink of an eye.

It’s a relatively lengthy chain with a high probability of failure if you don’t have a lot of people. It’s not an event that you can just do, you need to plan for it and even then the success rate is low if you have a small turnout.

Failure isn’t fun unless it’s a new experience. It’s a lot like the Aetherblade Retreat, it was awesome to do once but I would never go back in there again.
