Guild Wars 2

Today after some hours of trial and error (and alot of build crafting) i managed to survive for longer than 5 mins in the isntance with the WM. Thing is after i decided to die (or rather get 1 shotted after i exit stealth) i didnt recieve the achievement. Is there a bug or something?

I can go in specifics i played pu mesmer with refects and distorts to sirvive and spammed stealth and kept moving around. After i passed the 5 min mark i stayed alive until 8:49 to see how long will i be able to stay alive.

Now it cant be that i stealth through the enitre achievement because i killed mobs and took dmg (not sure if it was pre 5 tho). And i also know of guildies who did it with perma stealth thief and got the achievement.

If i there a bug can i do soemthing to restore the achievement because i really dont want to be spending any more time in there really.

Thanks for your time.

hmm I suppose that particular encounter has some issue. On my end, I got the achievement just as the timer hit 5 minutes, but I couldn’t seem to get Precision Blade though I’ve killed 50 mobs.

I remember going in there with the meta necro build (since i was doing fearless as well) and got them both precision blade and fearless very easily. But this one has been a pain in the kitten i spend like 2 hours with diff builds and actually got past 5 min twice but noachievement.

This kittens me up really bad because i need the achievements in order to progress later on aurora.

Is there not a skip to get straight to this part or a retry mote? I’ve only tried 3 times now and am pretty tired of sitting through all the stuff at the beginning of the instance.

No, but it’s a trivial achievement. Simply let the NPCs die. When not in combat, the wave of enemies will move around the room. You only need to stand in the back and move with them to evade them for as long as you want. If you want to additionally kill them, revive some NPCs at the front while they’re at the back, which will cause Kiera (Anise) to stop moving. She’s immortal, so she can solo the waves for you. Just don’t help her, since you’ll pull them all.

Thanks for that. That strat helped a bunch.

This strategy is apparently the way we were supposed to figure out how to do it. (providing you’re not on a thief and able to stealth it) After seeing this damage from the 5th group. there were just a few left, so thought i’d help kill after ressing a few npc’s at the end. Seems these groups can basically one-shot you. Can’t dodge everything!

Idk 3rd time iv done it and still no achievement @Anet halp?

The strategy that Healix described and is probably the way that less of a hassle to get either of the two achievements. Be careful as they do sometimes change directions.

I did mostly what Healix described. My only change was killing as many waves as possible before Shadow left, then I hid in the back & revived mobs while Anise killed them. I tried it by just hiding and Anise just kept following me and not getting into combat. I had to help her get engaged with the enemies.
