Guild Wars 2

While I enjoyed zerging (it was easy) I can understand the change. But the change went too far rising the bar too high for many overflows. And managing it in 6 minutes now is like this achivement is put as joke.

Same here. I just logged in on forum to thank aNet for utterly destroying Knights fight. I can’t believe that none of people that supposedly are paid for their work seriously put thought to recent changes. How increasing toughness, decreasing attunement damage buff and limiting participants to 50 per Knight can make this even better? And while you increase difficulity you reward players with 3x less drop? And that isn’t even what is most dissapointing. Just as Rentapest wrote, forget “6 minutes to knightfall”, entering Scarlet room becomes impossible on overflows. With (supposedly) 50 players on Red (as buff count shows) we manage to kill it in 12 minutes, meanwhile other groups gets 20-25 players and Blue Knight can heal itself. Two fails in a row with not even 2 knights downed as only Red got barely killed in time. Instead of “encouraging” people to split you just discourage players to even try and waste their time on event that on smaller overflows doesn’t reward you and doesn’t give you chance to progress further. Yesterday was “No drop day” but today we have “Only for Chosen Ones day” where only people on main servers or really organised Overflows (with lot of players participating) can actually safely assume they will enter Scarlet fight.

EDIT: Had to censor screenie since let’s say there were words from some players that It is not my place to show.

Is it true that in order to get the attunement achievement you must not go down?

[eta] I’d also like to add that the attunement achievement SUCKS for rangers, because passive only works about 3/4 of the time. I have to spam ‘come to me’ throughout battles. That’s no fun.

Nope, you can go down. Just keep checking time for attunement, you can do it. And be very careful when holo splits into 3. Be sure to use correct attunement for it and for its adds if they will spawn. (If there are lot of adds of different kind and you had perfect score till now, avoid hitting as long as you see progress is not endangered, instead try helping people that are waiting for rez for the time being). In the final form of holo do not shoot at the big one. It will ruin your achivement. Be sure to shoot only at small copies (doesn’t matter what attunement you use at this point but in case you accidentaly swap the Prime attunement to one of others in final phase make sure that you have one attunement, you still have to have one and these that you “pick” from the ground doesn’t last for long). Good luck.

Also, good to see ar eply to No loot bug.

It states “5 Deluxe Gear Boxes”…..
They never said “each player will get 5” they said "Legendary Assault Knights will drop 5 Deluxe Gear Boxes….
Take those 5 and devide them among the 200 players at the event…..

Makes perfect sence if you dont think about it…

No it does not make sense at all. 5 boxes divided by whole group would be really worthless when you could go and just farm champions for one box which is easier. Also the fact that noone from group gets loot now is contradicting what you just wrote.

He’s kidding, Arris. It was tongue in cheek.

Everything is possible in the internet ;p

I would be satisfied with fixing the issue without any increased chances for any drop…

Have the same problem, yesterday I got almost 100% loot (unless I was alone or in small party that arrived kind of late). Today even though dealing dmg in full group from the start of the raid, noone got chest. And I don’t mean my party only. All players that participated in killing Knights didn’t get any drop.
