Guild Wars 2

I recently just closed 6 portal events before the timer hits 30 minutes, had my daily pop, no swift closer pop.

Anyone else had this problem?

I’m pretty positive I’ve done this as well, but not gotten credit. I know those who have though.

It’s worth noting that Aetherblade and Molten events to not count towards this.

When you complete your first portal event you get a 15 minute buff, you have to finish 4 more portal events before the buff runs out.

I DID have my first event be the portal one and made sure I stuck to it, not one aetherblade or molten event was done, and I did check the event descriptions.

Actually just noticed, no buff was given.

Not just this but friend of fire and frost is broken for me as well =/ 1/2 on that even with portals closed in 7 worlds

Read the achievement. You must do it for Fireheart Rise and Frostgorge. Only those two count for that particular achievement.

As far as the OP, you must close 5 portal within 15 minutes of closing the first one.

You mean 4 more after the first one goes?

The achievement is broken. I got into the main map with 44/45 minutes (so no aetherblade or molten alliance). I closed five portals, and I KNOW I did because I got the 5/5 portals closed daily (this was right after reset, so these portals weren’t carrying on from a previous instance). On top of this, after my 5/5 portals closed daily checked off, I still had 32 minutes on the timer, meaning it only took me 12 minutes to close all 5. However, I’ve got no achievement, and on top of that my swift closer achievement says I’ve got 0 portals closed, not even 1/5.

I got the achievement earlier, but it only occurred on the home map…still needs a looking at.

Yes. My phrasing probably wasn’t the clearest.

I got my achievement for it with about 10 min left in the overall event. I jumped between events during the first wave and i’m sure i got the 5 closed in that time but i did not get the notice of the achievement until later.

Work fine. Just do 5 minion events within 15 minutes.

You do not have to do the whole event as always, you will get credit after a certain amount of damage. You can walk away let’s say after 50% to the next one and still get credit. Like always.

Got it on the first invasion I did right away…

This happened to me as well. Works for me

worked for me… was in an overflow too

^ also dont stand around continuing to kill stuff after the event finishes (normally you can run away as soon as the final lot of minions spawn and the charge melts)

I tried it first in a overflow map and it didn’t work, but I got it after I try it again in my home world map. That might be the problem?
