I would say people like to farm champ because each champ got 1 box and the boss only got 2.
So people doesn’s care whether the event is success or not.
Just need to farm more boxes to show off.^^

I don’t understand what you’re saying. To my knowledge, all events that are “better to fail” have been fixed to encourage success. ArenaNet learned their mistake with the Scarlet Invasions.

Upscaled champs in world boss events (Jormag, Fire Elemental, Shadow Behemoth, Evolved Wurm) do not drop champ boxes. Constant champs which spawn during pre-events (Caledon Wurm, Ulgoth) cannot be killed “instead” of the boss because they, well, appear before the boss.

That said, the sadist in me enjoys how oblivious greedy players get punished for being greedily oblivious at world events.

20 level 80s and counting.

Claw of Jormag champions that spawn in the phase 2 drop champion boxes. But because the amount of hp they have you rarely see them go down.

Guarenteed rare/exotic for completing as well as the chest which has a high likelyhood of containing another rare & other goodies is worse than a few porous bones?

Well that’s new to me. One’s mans junk is another man’s treasure I guess.

Exactly my point. Yet people still successfully defend and don’t let them fail.

You’re contradicting your earlier statement about better to fail events being ‘fixed’.

Aside from temples, there are still many countless examples of event chains where it’s more beneficial on a whole to let things fail, or to draw out events to farm.

Let things fail so you can successfully complete again do you mean? Failing itself is not rewarding.

yes, it is for showing off. It has nothing to do with champ farming giving you more gold and resources or that horrible reward system in general.
