The Arena Net devs said “Kitten it! We’ll make one more update with the craziest ideas we can think of. If the players don’t love it we’ll make an expansion.”
And that’s why the Tower of Nightmares is…
Dynamic events that must be completed to even enter.
Multiple Jumping Puzzles on your way to the top.
Two Dungeons along the way.
An epic Zerg Boss Battle at the top (think Orr rather than Teq)
A portal opens to a brand new Zone where ascended armor drops.
No WP’s. At all.
Meta achievement resets daily and has scaling rewards.
Basically, they said “Let’s just take the hardest version of every type of content and mash it all together.”
EDIT: This post is in the spirit of fun. It’s not based on fact.
This game is not about out-DPSing you. It’s about out-flashing you.
