Guild Wars 2

This is just infuriating. For anyone who has gotten gold on this….please….explain. I have only BARELY been able to get silver before i die, and i did not even get credit for getting silver on this attempt (silver is 80 and i got 86) gold is 150. 150! that is RIDICULOUS. This is the first thing in the expansion that has legitimately gotten me angry (other than not being rewarded for map completion. Anet, please adjust this adventure or teach me something i don’t understand!

You want them to delete content because you’re bad at it?

I understand it’s cool to pick on people on the forums, but if you’re going to do it, i would suggest using words the OP actually used as well. No where did i say i wanted them to delete this content, i simply asked for advice, or that it be looked at because it might need adjusted. Cute try though bud.

Oh I thought you meant “delete rifle adventure”. I didn’t realize the full name was your title. I thought you had lost your kitten mind.

I got 150 by spamming the debug node Anet left behind.

So…

Wouldn’t that be exploiting an exploit instead of reporting it and NOT exploiting it?

Has anyone done this legit? Please I’m at the point I have to milk all the masteries I can to progress =P

I tried the golem suit adventure in TD and got silver and no credit.

I then ported to Rata Sum and picked up items from the TP. Picking up the items then awarded me all my missing chests, my mastery point and the xp. I would give that a try if you aren’t getting credit. No idea if it is repeatable or what, but it worked for me.

Some of the adventures seem to either be bugged, overtuned, or require some odd trick no one has thought of yet. I know for a few of the adventures I BARELY get silver and my world ranking is ~30. So I would say that is an issue if <10 people in the game can get gold on something that is required to finish your masteries.

Can’t you use your utilities for this one? Like superspeed the whole time? I’ve only done it a few times so I can’t remember.

No sadly you can not use utilities

While getting gold for this one I figured that using skill 1 repeatedly was not efficient enough. Skill 5 is the big chak chewer and the goal is to make them stack up as much as possible so they can walk into the fire. Skill 3 packs quite a punch, interrupts(good for the “tougher” chak) and can be used to move around. I used skill 2 when on the platforms mostly because I wanted to clear the platforms as soon as possible so I could get down on the ground again.

Try to get to the main area as soon as possible and don’t break too many eggs on the ground, they’re handy to keep around for later when you’re going up to the platforms and down again. While up on the platforms the spawning chak will gather up and stack below you so when you drop down after clearing a platform you can drop a big juicy fire field to mop up a lot.

Speed shrooms and dodges are great for getting around and you get full endurance bar after popping an egg while being close to it.

Other than that you want to just figure out a route that works for you. It’s a tough one.

Thanks you sir! Thus is good info

Do you kill every chak on every platform or do you get the bulk of them and move on?

There’s not enough time to be thorough with the platforms. If there are a lot of chak grouped up on the platform you can lure them into the skill 5 fire field but they don’t follow as easy as the chak on the ground. If you use the fire field on the platform you have time to glide to another platform right away and do a bit of flamethrowing skill 2 before going down on the ground for skill 5 again. The cooldown on skill 5 is about 15 seconds and it was the key skill for me.

There is one bouncing mushroom that goes to one of the lower platforms with only 2 eggs on it. If you have lean gliding you can glide straight to the second highest platform if you start forward towards the ledge of it as soon as you can during the jump. That platform also has a bouncing mushroom that takes you to the top platform so it’s quite convenient to do those two platform in a row, which will probably take more than 15 seconds so a fire field can be used on one of those platforms.
