Guild Wars 2

I just did all the events for the outpost: pact encampment and didn’t get the achievement for it. Well I should say I did every event I could find around it and even checked on dulfy to make sure I did all in the list for it. There is nothing in the achievements indicating what I missed or why I didn’t get the achievement like in some other achievements. How are we suppose to get it if there is no indicator as to what all needs to be done to get it? How am I to know what I exactly need to do to get it?

Did you check your hero panel to make sure each was checked off? If not, go to your hero panel. Type ground pounder in the search box and pull up the list of what’s needed. The ones done should have a green check mark by them. If they are all done then you’ll need to contact support.

1 copper says you probably haven’t done the initial setup events yet. Those unfortunately tend to get done at the start of the daytime which means that you often have to wait until night ends and go straight for it otherwise people will have completed it. Yea it sucks, but that’s what has to be done.

http://dulfy.net/2015/11/09/gw2-hot-maps-timer-famme/ use this to know if you’re at the right time.

Click on the achievement and it checks off the ones you’ve done.

I check my achievement panel a lot, well at least while in the new areas. But all it has in the achievement is “outpost: pact encampment” since that is the only one left I have to do in ground pounder. The others I did without a hitch.
And I usually use the timer that is on the wiki, which is the same one as dulfy. I started with the clear area for the encampment. Took me a bit on the other two to realize to get that one you have to sit and wait at the location till daybreak to get it.
I know I probably just missing one event in the chain to get the achievement since at the end of the chain I didn’t have time to double check on dulfy if I was doing the correct event in the area. But there is nothing in the achievements that gives a list of what I got and what events in the chain I missed. And not even sure if I can just do each individual event different days or if they all have to be done in one go.

Update: got the achievement. But I will have to say it would have been easier to just have a list of the events I didn’t accomplish. I guess I didn’t actually get credit for the last event I did. I thought I saw the event complete pop up on the right but must have been for something else.

As I remember it, you can. ‘Outpost : Pact Encampment’ has its own achievement (‘Pact Camper’) , and that one has ticks of each event.

There is a list of which ones you missed. Each outpost has an event chain and it’s own list for their own achievements. Instead of checking ground pounder, you needed to look at each outpost separately. Ground Pounders is like a compound achievement for getting the other five.

I didn’t think to check other achievement areas. I will have to do more digging next time. Thanks for letting me know.
