The launch pads at Tequatl do not work if you don’t have gliding unlocked. Shatterer’s launch pads do launch you, but the Teq ones do not. Attempting to use it just makes the Gliding tip pop up.

I consider this to be a game blocking issues, because participants in the fight need to be able to get to the battery defenses more quickly than running speed allows.

Seriously? This is your plan? To make non HoT players (with paid accounts)
stop doing Teq? More failed maps? More angry players?

You have to realize that when you take away content that was paid for, and it’s been used for a long time, the players will feel isolated and cheated. They will then act the same way and you made them that way.

Get ready for more failed maps and specifically, full maps that look half full because lots of non HoT players are on the map and not playing, but showing up at the end to tag the boss for full rewards.

Was this what you were going for?

Seriously, it’s a bug, not a plan.

The pads’ new functionality is also annoying to those of us that can use them. As soon as you jump on them, BOING! off you go, even if your intention is to go over the pad to get to an enemy. The pads really need to only work if you interact with them (like they used to), not as soon as you touch them (as if they were bouncing mushrooms).

You can’t tag teq at the end for full rewards. Doesn’t work like that

It looks like all the Jumping Pads are now Launching Pads and they haven’t changed for a few days. Looks like they’re done.

It might take a couple hits but you might want to Recheck that full credit thing Andraus.

You won’t get full credit for the entire event just by attacking Teq a few times. You may get the bonus reward chest and the dragon chest, but you won’t get the chests rewarded for participating in battery defense.

And I’m still fairly confident that this change (requiring gliding) wasn’t intended for this boss. Hopefully the patch Tuesday will fix it.

Each battery phase counts toward the side chests. If you don’t do any battery phase I think you only get one (or maybe zero I’m not sure) if you miss one, like you’re doing laundry or something, you will miss out on a side a chest.

I’m sure you still get the world chest regardless but you will miss out on the side chests.

I understand exactly what you are saying. That’s what we’ve experienced in the past. However if you actually check, you will see that all 4 chests are awarded for just a few tags at the end.

Was upset when I saw the loss of the jumping pads before the event and left to gather some resources there. Wasn’t much and when I circled back Teq was still going so I tagged it at the end and got all 4. Tested it again with an account with HoT and 4 chests again.
