Guild Wars 2

I don’t know why, but three runs and three times not dropping in lava or even touching it, and this achievement refuses to unlock for me. Is this bugged?

I believe this also includes the tiny lava pits that litter the floor during the boss fight. They periodically fill with lava, so you have to be careful to avoid them as much as possible during the fight. There should be a special debuff that appears on you while you’re in the lava, although it might be hard to notice if you only momentarily touch it.

Sometimes the lava may not show due to a visual bug, so it’s best to just stay away from those little pits.

Other than that, I don’t know why it wouldn’t be awarding you with the achievement. I’m fairly certain the fire from the rolling boulders and hot floor mechanic during the boss fight do not affect the achievement.

It definitely includes the small crater lava pits during the last fight.

Best just to avoid them altogether while trying for this achievement.

I thought I did – do they “count” while not lit too? If so I might just have to take drastic measures.

I’m pretty sure they don’t count if they’re not lit, but it’s best to just avoid them altogether. As I mentioned, there’s apparently a visual bug that can occur where the lava doesn’t show properly even though it’s there, but if you just make sure you stay away from all of them then that shouldn’t be an issue.

I’m going to go on record now for the third thing I hate, wholly and unconditionally, in this game.
