As an open world content? Yep, it’s still pretty much impossible.

Just sayin.
For all you negative nancy’s out there.
It’s impossible for potatoes and afks.

Try doing that in a real overflow, then we can talk about it.
We had the main server, and an overflow beat it at the same time on SBI last night.
Just sayin’.
I hope you’re trolling.
You do realize that some of the overflows are being used as “virtual instances” for mega guilds to drop into and do Tequatl without afks and leeches right?

nice way to insult servers that are trying by using their own guilds only.
Nice way to not read what I said.

TC overflow beat it once without comms. But the turrets were experienced players who had won before.
Any time you have new players on fresh runs, they will have issues until the ‘get it’
I still see a lot who refuse to release and run back. It’s such a joke if people think we can actually rez you. People need to do a stronger job of keeping themselves alive. So lazy or slow sometimes.

As far as I know it has yet to be done using only ingame resources. Every successful attempt I’ve heard of needed TS to win.
SO… technically still impossible without 3rd party programs.
Also the majority of the attempts have been performed by either BG or TC. They just keep guesting around and beating it on different servers to help people out. Which is great, and very nice of them, but not representative of the majority.
Not saying I don’t like the challenge, beating it is fun, i’ve done it once, hoping to do it again tonight. But to be fair it has yet to be beaten by normal players, which is what the people claiming it was impossible had in mind I think.
Under that logic, doing tPvP with voice chat is cheating. It’s ELITE content. If voice wasn’t required/extremely helpful, it wouldn’t be hard.

Do you guys forget what MMO stands for? God forbid there’s content out there that is challenging and requires teamwork. If you want to beat everything by yourself, then play a FPS or console game.
Blackgate Native. It takes tremendous strength and skill to pull a lever.
One of the things that surprised me when I downed Tequatl was how basic the strategy is. I’m sure even PUGs will be farming him within two weeks. It’s really all about stacking.
It’s the execution of that strategy that separates good, organized groups from pug zergs. PUGs will never farm tequila as it is.

This fight relies on a few things. Good turret use is at the top of that list. No secret there. If you have people on the turrets who have no clue; you’re gonna have a bad time.
This, times 1000. I give up trying at this point. Every time the turrets end up empty or not used properly.

what you said essentially reads as “it’s not impossible unless you’re a potato”, so yes, I did read.
Then you don’t have any comprehension and have let your frustration make out what you want.

Had TS =/= needed TS.
I’ve played all roles (turret defender, turret-manner and dps zerg), been on TS the time we killed him and I can tell you that the amount of useful information being told there was close to zero. Almost everything was obvious things one should know after attempting Tequila a couple of times.
That is not to say TS didn’t help, but that with decent players willing to organize, map chat and lfg tool you can down him ezpz.

“You can’t have more than 10 HS decks because that would confuse people”

How about we all stop talking about this for the next 90days so we can laugh at everyone who said it was impossible when it becomes regularly completed on servers and overflows alike. It will happen. There are plenty of PUG players that want to complete it and stay after each fight to learn and understand what they should do and not do during the fight.
First step: start whispering the people that are dead and not rezzing because odds are they a) don’t have map chat on or b) don’t realize that having people stop to rez you when you are dead creates negative DPS on top of the negative DPS your corpse causes. This is where the education comes in. You can’t just say, oh dang these people aren’t rezzing, this encounter is broken and should never have been open world because of these idiots. Try and be a little proactive, that’s what separates leaders from followers.
I won’t stop because I can’t stop.
It’s a medical condition, they say its terminal….
By now the “this is impossible” faction is really reaching for straws and arguing technicalities. I’ts pointless to discuss anymore after it has come to that, they will just always construct an example where a fight failed and claim to be right based on that.
The dragon was slain within a day of the patch, and now a few days later slain on several servers, on the overflow, several times by the same servers (Piken Square is up to 3 now I think, unless I missed one today).
The most reaching argument is the TS one. We have 2013. If you pick 100 MMO players, many will have VoIP available. I’m sure at the kills I attended some were using it. I was using it on one kill and not using it on the other. I’m know many others werent either.
Its not required because the event is not that difficult, the problem is players not wanting to do whats neccessary. Even now, 3 days after the patch too many still try to coast by on the coattails of the majority, which doesn’t work too well with this dragon.
/agree … and will reiterate the message
Even now, 3 days after the patch too many lazy still try to coast by on the coattails of the majority
The ones with pop issues, already have started going the better route to attain the achievo.
And plus 1 on the voice comms, sorry but this is 2013 … we all use voice comms, evn us older gamers (like 40+) with our wives and children, hell we got some retired guys in our voice comms. It’s a basic standard in mmo’s … not required, but by design the modern mmo does consider it in every design aspect.
Whispering dead people will solve the issue so the player knows how to deal with it next time, but first time through it hurts the game/dps of the match as you have to whisper the dude and type versus dps.

Ya sorry VOIP is not a arguement…… most gamers these days use VOIP lol. It is pretty standard…. its part of the social aspect…. its a huge part of WvW, you dont have time to type out plans and where to go -.-.
The only reason why VoIP IS INFACT AN ARGUEMENT here is because unless its forced on you (IE. part of the GW2.exe Client) not every player is going to seek out the TS3 download client, setup the connection string, take the 15 seconds to figure out how to use it, then start using it.
The only way to beat this content is to have voice chat. I have NOT seen any groups complete this with out being on Mumble or Teamspeak.
its time GW2.exe gets a VoIP Client. And this content is the exact reason why.

I’m pretty sure that you don’t know English well enough then.
It’s impossible for potatoes and afks.
“For” and “Because of” are two different things.
It’s (almost) impossible for potatoes and afks because they sabotage themselves.
It is NOT impossible for you as the only thing holding you back is them and numbers.
Do you understand the difference now?
Or are you going to keep lashing out over any perceived slight because of your frustration?
