Guild Wars 2

Here’s a thread for posting your screenshots from the new world boss events!

Feel free to post an image and share your experience, like:

• “I finally finished this event, and it felt epic with all those people around! My server could never do it before!” or
• “Not much changed, it usually looked the same on my server.” or
• “I couldn’t see anything behind particles and nameplates, couldn’t tag to get loot and couldn’t understand anyone because they spoke a different language…”

Please remember to:

• post an image to clearly illustrate what you’re talking about (because otherwise it will be no different from any other general “Feedback” threads!),
• edit out player names/chat text if posting a screenshot which may compromise these players (which is against forum rules).

Protip: use “Preview” to upload several images into the same post instead of creating multiple posts.

Megadestroyer, yesterday evening. I’d say it turned out overcrowded, and there were enough people from non-English speaking servers to make me feel uncomfortable. The pre events had too little mobs for that amount of players – you had to be fast to kill anything and sometimes were simply late to tag, so overall I felt like I didn’t matter and could simply AFK as well. Can’t say anything about the boss itself because the defence part bugged out and I didn’t have a chance to kill it.

Fire Elemental- Keywords: zerg, framerate drop, trivial (dead in under 30 secs), xenophobia in some parts.

Wurm. I always enjoyed the control part (Summoned Husks) – all those pushes-pulls-immobilizes which I could throw to slow them down while others DPSed the boss down. This time I got overwhelmed by trashmobs which scaled from the zerg, but nevertheless, the wurm went down fast enough to make my control attempts useless. It’s a pity this mechanic doesn’t work anymore.

One week ago we where in 4 players trying to do it…

Oh, you wanted to be able to see the ground at the Golem so you can quickly see where the electric floor is coming? Well, tough luck. :P

That’s a pity, since those projectiles don’t even do near to the damage the rings indicate… The thing which got worse is that too many characters cover the sparks with their bodies and it’s next to impossible to see them.

I got a small collection of overcrowded boss fights today: champion husk at Wurm, Taidha, Ulgoth, Golem. It’s often even hard to see the boss itself.

I cant post anything because I cant kill anything because the zerg kills it faster than I can tag it and I cant even see the boss because 150 players and their spell effects can drown out the ocean itself.
