Guild Wars 2

“Drive the ogres from their watchtower by killing their scounts.” dynamic event is messed up. Some time back a patch changed things so that the 1-15 zones were to no longer have champion mobs in them. However this event spawns several of them. In addition this is not a “group event”. I’d think at most there would be veteren enemies to fight but even that would be possible overkill for this event since the enemies are in groups of 2 or 3 and in relative close proximity to others. The event takes place at Watchcrag Tower Waypoint in Plains of Ashford. It is level 13 content in that location. Even if the one patch did not change things so that there were still champion enemies in these 1-15 zones I would be posting this report since it is not a “group event”.

The patch did not remove Champions from Level 1 – 15 zones. What it did change was Level 1 – 3 or 4 areas.

Now, it may or may not be a bug spawning several Champions where you refer to, though I’ve not seen them, not all Champion events are Group events.

I’m sure someone will look into it, though. =)

Looking back at the patch notes it would appear that every event that had a champ in it got changed at least as far as I can tell so I can only assume this one got overlooked. Seeing as the reason (see below) for the change, this event with several champs in it definitely doesn’t fit with that reason.

Champion Event Conversion on Starter Maps
Many champion events in the starter maps have been converted into veterans. This change is being made to ensure new players focus on learning the core game experience.
