Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone,

the only tequatl achievement I’m missing is flawless defense. Just looking for opinions on how to get it (I’ve only tried to get it a handful of times, so I’m not desperate, just looking for advice).

I’ve joined organized teq’s about 20-3o minutes before spawn to help find good maps, and usually they do great, but a common problem is on the final burn phase everyone ditches defense and attacks teq, and often turrets are destroyed then.

I have actually had one run where turrets were destroyed in the second defense phase but not during the final burn phase, so maybe I should just wait it out and it’ll happen?

I usually play active defense on the turrets when I’m trying for the achievement, and there are usually no enemies at all doing anything to the turrets, and I repair them if they need it, but they’re usually always about 90%.

So my question is, what can I do to improve the odds a run gets a flawless defense? Or should I just ignore it and it will come in time? Or is this something a run needs to organize for to make sure it happens?

I appreciate any advice!

As a Tequatl commander myself, who in most of the Tequatl kills gets flawless defence, I can share a few bits of personal experience:

• People very rarely listen to other players who don’t have that blue thingy above their head. Your best shot would be to whisper the most communicative commander on the map and tell him your request. There are great chances that people will actually listen;
• Tequatl isn’t an event that one man can change, sadly. I’m an AH build guardian I can facetank a kittenload of stuff but I get downed by the mobs spawning at defence sites if I’m alone there;
• Another thing is that even if 4 commanders isn’t necessary, it is advisable. You can’t expect that 1-2-3 people can constantly run forward and back and make sure that all turrets are manned and defence squads are on their positions;
• Last, but not least, it’s down to a small portion of luck. You will sooner or later get it.

Have fun and good luck!

alright, thanks for the advice! I’ll keep trying and probably whisper the commanders to see if we can get it more organized! haven’t seen a run with more than 1 commander, though.

edit: scratch that, I have seen a teq with 2 commanders on occassion, but 4? never.
