Guild Wars 2

I really want the Temple of Melandru armor, but I can’t get people to help me kill Melandru. Hes up and ready to kill, I say it in map chat, guild chat, etc. But nobody wants to! I even guested on a different server, still nobody. In order to get certain skill points and pois, some of the other temples have to be taken out… which nobody does. So Is there a way to get people to help out? Is there a server that always take down temples?

Northern Shiverpeaks does it at 5pm server time every night. Just follow the commander tag. They usually start with grenth from Meddlers Waypoint in cursed shore.

I want to get Temple of Zephyr backpiece gear but NO ONE ever comes to Orr anymore.

Hey Colin, i know in your other post you mentioned how Anet is gonna re-imagine Orr and make rewards more rewarding, make bosses more challenging to fight yadda yadda yadda.

But just in case that does not pan out, can we have variations of the Orr gear purchasable using guild tokens or fractal tokens or dungeon tokens or something?

To OP:
Unless Anet does some kind of living story in Orr, for the time being, you are probably NOT going to be able to get any gear or help at all.

I know I see Melandru killed constantly on Sanctum of Rall occasionally.

Just some things to note: currently, defending the temple from being captured does not reward a daily chest, so what most Cursed Shore regulars do allow the Risen to retake the temple, and then run the complete chain to retake the temple. Not only you get a hefty sum of loot bags (assuming the pre-events scale pretty high), but you also get your guaranteed daily rare item for completing it.

Last I heard it should be coming when the loot revamp comes out in late summer IIRC. Basically what they said was that Orr right now is about how they want it to be, difficulty wise. Orr as it was at first was too easy, with event mobs dying to fast people were even having troubles tagging them. They revamped the difficulty, but there was bug in the scaling system that made events become too hard too fast, which is why people were complaining about unkillable champions in the penn/shelter camps, which is aparently fixed now. So, they now have the difficulty where they want it (or so it seems) but know that the rewards aren’t good enough to entice people to go there, which is what they plan on fixing on the upcoming loot rewards revamp.

Tarnished Coast (not my server) seems to keep them open a lot.

Your best bet is to go to some of the sites that display the state of temples for each server, such as:

Guest to different servers or check out the “Dynamic Events” thread. People often post when temples open up and on which server.

Seafarer’s Rest is very good at clearing temples, Dwayna, Melandru, Lyssa and Arah are cleared every day, and even though it only gets cleared every few days people try to crack Grenth constantly. Balthazar tends to get done about once a week.
