The moral in the final escort event still drops really fast even if the map is full of players(we were something like 30 ppl there) and we kill every mob that creates these damage circles.
Then restarted the event multiple times just because of this bug.

I saw posts from 4 years ago on the forums on the same thing

AND THIS HAVNT BEEN FIXED FOR 4 YEARS???

Disapointing.
I cant do 100% map completion because of this

I am a new player , and iv just discovered that there are really cool “Temple” meta event in orr. And all over the the GW2 youtube area i hear about this balthazar and then this happens.

if you see a bug listed somewhere from 4 years ago, and no one else mentioning it in between, why do you assume it has been in the game that long?

the reality is I have never seen the event bug like that and I’ve been playing since just after the game released. I’ve played the temple events many times. this means it has been fixed before, and will again, now that it has been reported.

There are groups that do the event weekly and some that do it daily. So perhaps it’s just a single instance with an issue and perhaps that issue is due to lag (the allies aren’t where you think they are). Last few times I did the event (admittedly, none recently), we needed some to provide healing; being good at DPS wasn’t enough — perhaps that’s the issue.

As for map completion, it’s easy to get the WP/PoI without clearing the temple. It’s also possible to channel the hero point; it helps to have stealth (via skills or via some sort of bundle for profs without access to invisibility).

In response to your post, I must say that Temple of Balthazar has been this way for a long time now and its certainly not bugged. It just requires a little more “strategy” or “coordination” at best. It’s not that hard once you understand the mechanics of the escort. In fact, you’ll see that I was one of the people who replied to that post in which you referenced above.

Let me go over what you need to do, so you can succeed at this escort… first of all, you need to focus on the veterans in the final escort event, especially the vet subjugators. The veteran subjugators spawn the massive wells that kill off the pact instantly (what you referred to as “damage circles”). No matter if you have 100 people there or just 2, those aoe circles will wipe the pact if the subjugators aren’t dealt with (even more so with more people since their damaged is scaled).
The solution is quite simple… kill those veteran subjugators as fast as possible. It also helps to bring crowd control skills (like fear, daze, stuns, launch, knockdown, knockback, transform and etc) with you and interrupt them as often as you can while they are being killed. Learning the spawns or going with someone who knows the spawns can also help… 1 vet subjugator will spawn in the first wave, 2 vet subjugators in the third wave, and one last vet sub in the seventh wave near the temple steps. Once, you have this info down, you’ll go the temple with 100% morale nearly every time.

If you need time to learn this, some people believe some heals for the npcs and additional invasion forces (more than 1: south, central and/or north) can help as well. I don’t trust these methods only because one well aoe can wipe all the npcs just as fast whether or not you are healing and/or have additional npcs.

If you are still having trouble with this event, my guild runs a daily temple zerg that can help you finish this easily. Here’s some info on our temple event, that has been running daily for more than 4 years: click here
