Guild Wars 2

Isn’t this supposed to work on the same schedule as the non-overflow counterpart?

Last night I tried to go to, of course, Queensdale to fight the Shadow Behemoth. I ended up in overflow again, and he never popped, even though it was happening in the non-overflow (and Yes we took care of the prerequisites in overflow.)

It was of course very frustrating for all of us that an area with a world boss would be directing us to overflow and not allow us to fight it. Queesndale just seems to have WAY too much going on in it at one time – Starting area for most numerous race + champ train + popular place for dailies/monthlies + a world boss.

Anyway, just curious if this is “working as intended”?

Overflows have their own timers, so the fact that SB was up in the main instance has no bearing on whether he is up in your overflow instance.

Only events like teq and the Scalet invasions are synced across servers. Other world events happen independently.

If that is the case then maybe Shadow Behemoth can decide to move to Ashford Plains for a change in scenery? (The only starting area that didn’t get a world boss) Being in that Queensdale swamp for so long can’t be good for his allergies
