Server can't even get to Scarlet
Is there any way that you can temporarily travel to another server? It took a while for Fort Aspenwood to get it down, but today we managed to do it most of the day with some cooperation.
I dunno, how would I do that?

I pulled this from the Wiki. I have not tried it myself yet, but it may help you out!

Guesting
Guesting allows you to play with friends on other worlds in the same region without transferring. Guests retain guild bonuses from their home world and any influence earned will accrue to their home world’s guild.2 Guests cannot participate in World versus World and do not receive any Power of the Mists bonuses. As might be expected, if you guest to a full world, you increase your chances of ending up in overflow.
Players on North American home worlds cannot guest on European worlds or vice versa.3
[edit] How to guest
From the character selection screen, choose World Selection. Choose the world to which you wish to guest and click on the Guest button (next to the Transfer button). After confirming your choice, the game will place a suitcase icon symbol next to the guest world. The next character you play will be guesting on that server and continue to do so until you logout, change characters, or restart the current character. To guest again (or with another character), repeat the same steps.
You are eligible to guest as many times as you like, but you may only choose up to two guest worlds every 24 hours.
Caution: double-check when guesting that you have not accidentally started the transfer process; the buttons are very close together and the prompts are similar.
That’s how guesting works.
You can access the end instance through a purple portal located near Lionguard Turma by Diverse Ledges WP, by the way. According to Dulfy, your character needs a soulbound spinal blades backpiece (fine/masterwork should work). I was also told that you can access it if you already made it to the Prime Hologram fight once, so if you have, it’s worth a try.
Fort aspenwood is one of the servers that fails the content regularly. Even at prime time they either fail knights or the hologram. Guesting does not help due to high chance ending up in overflow with not enough to fight all 3 knights.

That is odd. I am on Fort Aspenwood. I played yesterday on and off and tried about 5 or 6 times and only failed once when the Blue Knight healed due to Menders reaching him. It does depend on the time that you try to be honest. I am EST and most of my tries were in the afternoon through the evening. The morning probably does not have enough people on. Perhaps the weekend would be better for those times.
Try guesting to one of the very high PVE population servers e.g. Blackgate, Tarnished Coast.
You’re doing this specifically to get into an overflow as you wont get in to the main map. If the queue pops telling you that a space has opened ignore it and chose to stay where you are, this is critical because if you move, you’ll end up in a less populated overflow and not the server map you were expecting.
If you load into LA between about quarter to and ten to the hour, you ought to end up in an overflow that fills up with other players also arriving specifically for the fight.

You can do the last part of the event without having to do the Knight/Hologram events. You can skip to the part where the big thing happens and you get to see all the cutscenes (I’m being vague to prevent spoiling the story).
Go to the Diverse Ledges waypoint (lower left corner of LA). There is a purple portal there. If you have the Advanced Spinal Blade backpiece on any character you can enter the purple portal and get into the drill. You don’t need to use the character that has the backpiece, you just need that achievement.

Oh, I wasn’t aware of that detail. Thank you. (I wanted to give the backpack to a lover level character, but play with my main.)

You specifically need to have the Lv80 version of the backpiece, which a lower character wouldn’t be able to equip.
No. The requirement is any spinal blade. I’ve accessed that portal with the lv20 blue one.

I have no problem getting unto my server (Drakarlake) at the moment.
Even at prime time.
That did not happen after the last patch.
It seems this one is just not so interesting for the people (lootwise maybe?), though i think the most prominent problem are the buggy encounters and the time vs. reward investment for the hologram fight (seriously, wacking on it for 20 min+ and getting so few… rather do a worldboss or something)
You can get into that portal with the lowest level spinal backpiece. You do avoid the knight fight and holo fight. You get achieve for talking to Turma at Diverse Ledges and you get an achieve for equipping the backpack.
I am glad they did provide alternatives to just fighting the knights and holo since there have been so many issues. My server is having trouble getting enough to fight them. Not sure if it is out of frustration or lack of interest or folk who got the achieves they wanted out of the event. We did get one down this last hour but last couple hours before we were not able to due to lack of folk and issues with folk obviously not knowing what they should be doing to maximize the event. Right now with the way it is going I do not see anyone getting enough power cores to do much of anything unless they buy them on the TP. Thank goodness the price did drop.
If I want to complete the event, I need to guest to another server.
IMO, that’s not how the game should be played.
Meta is easily done via the dailies if you are unable to get them on the meta list so it is not a total fail. Guesting to another server is an option if you want to do the knight and holo fight. All in all it is doable in several ways but would have liked to have seen this doable on home servers. My server is not a hard core balls-to-the-walls kind of server. I think many on my server would be right at home at Burning Man, lol. So we may mellow dude our way to any achieves we get….
