“Defeating the final boss of Tier 3, Liadri the Concealing Darkness, will reward you with a Mini Liadri the Concealing Dark pet which resembles her likeness. However, only around 8% of the testers at Arenanet have defeated her after several weeks.” – Dulfy.net
So if Queen’s gauntlet is only temporary, GL to everyone on getting the achievements.

Once in a while, yes, but you just got really hard content with t3/4 (which most of us can’t complete now, since we didn’t take advantage of the exploit when it was available).
But t3/4 isn’t GOOD hard content. It’s content that is hard because it’s poorly designed. As you said, most people had to complete it by cheesing it and only killing the guys who steal the loot, because the spam of high-health veterans was too overpowered.
True its not good hard content, but its still hard content. I’m gonna have to pay attention and use any “advantages” found in the beginning so I can do it, unlike Candidate trials, which I pushed off thinking I’d be able to do it later (which now I can’t).
To be honest I am really glad that I finished the Trials right after start because I am not sure that I would be able to finish it now..

To clarify we had both QA and our internal core tests go through the content a whole bunch. The QA team focused on making sure that every profession could complete every boss (there are 12) with a reasonable level of skill and gear. The core testers mostly did what they do best and beat the pants off of the stuff we throw at them and tell us whether or not it was hard enough. I feel its worth mentioning that we would schedule tests for an hour or so and some of them would stay all day trying to beat it. But they were having fun, and that’s whats most important to me.
Are your testers league pro gamers? Because if this same group tested T4 we’re in for a world of hurt. :<
Hope that lol
You hope the gauntlet can only be done by not playing as it was intended? Ok weird.
I am glad that you know what was intended lol. Because I cant see into developers head so it is good to have some mentalist here.

Queen’s Gauntlet is definitely the more challenging side of the Jubilee. That’s why it has its own achievement category and rewards. There’s even a gambit system wherein you can increase the difficulty for a better reward.
It’s not quite like anything we’ve ever done before. I think some of you are really going to have fun with it.
Thanks for your answers. I feel little more safe now. Lets see how it will look when the event starts. This reminds me of Arena fights against NPCs in EOTN!

If I get this right, it is a solo content. Am I the only one who is afraid that we will not be able to finish this with every class? Difficulty scale of events like this is pretty.. weird. I really should not care because I have warrior and guardian but I do.

People always complain. I got this TRIVIAL achievement on the 1st day, without any effort whatsoever. It is extremely hard not to get 50 points at least.
It it were 25000 points, that would be actually pretty hard. But only 2500? Please. It’s the best minigame yet released, more fun to play than anything else in the entire game, the ‘achievement’ is completed far to early, and people still complain? It can be done on the first day!! That’s how easy it is.
I say raise the mark to 25000 (25 thousand). Make it a real achievement for those who like the mini game. Not everyone needs to get it after all.
Or better yet, keep it at 2500 but the counter should only count your points when you stay alive and have > 100 points at the end. That’s how achievements should be.
I agree with you. After a few games that I used to learn how to do this game I had about 60+- pts per game, 100+ if I won. I watched highscores every game and plenty of ppl had atleast 50 pts.
If you are getting 25 pts per game, you are doing something wrong. Try staying at first camp when the grace buff is up and try to kill everyone and take as many supplies as possible. If you die as first when the grace is off you can easily get to 15 stacks and kill people.

There will be only one new fractal, not 2.
3 new fractals
Really? Which? Developer said on the forum that they will be doing only 1 of these 2 fractals.
Molten Alliance
Aetherblade Retreat
Vote on the 3rd "Fall of Abaddon or Thaumanova Reactor.
It’s on one of the developer steams.
Good.

Fractal is just a fragment of memory. It wont change anything in existing world but if we are lucky maybe it will explain some stuff. I dont expect megaload of lore anyways.

I still do FOTM (30+ level on both chars), I still enjoy them and I am looking for a new fractal. Id rather see Abaddon fractal but if Kiel wins I will do Reactor aswell.
If you dont like FOTM.. thats fine but that doesnt mean that no one else likes it aswell.

Seriously, I love my minis but the fact that I must use an invisible bag and reactivate it on every map change incredibly bad design. Make minis not get deposited automatically or make em equipable. There are so many minis in the game yet so few have em out because they are just a pain to keep it going.
I was thinking about this many times and I have to agree with you. I think that minis need revamp. If minis were summoned untill we unsummonthem there would be much more people using them.

* Asura Gates to All Cities
* Crafting Stations
* Bank and Guild Bank Access
* Mystic Forge
* Merchants
* And more! All within easy reach, for those who enjoy the ultimate convenience.
I have to ask; what’s the point of adding all of those? Are they trying to turn DR into the LA? Everything in that spoiler seems like an unnecessary addition to me, but maybe I’m missing something.
I’ve been wondering about that as well. Doesn’t DR already have all that stuff? Are they moving them all to once point, is it not really part of DR (thus needing them), what is it for
?
The only missing thing in DR is Mystic forge. Yeah, imo the DR is the biggest city in game so they are trying to atract more people to roam their streets but I am not sure if adding another MF is the way to go. I am pretty curious what they have prepared for us.)

You can do alot if the mobs hang in the middle. Kill plunderer and run back to the water to loose agro.

But other people are enjoying the hell out of it. Not every update is going to please everyone, but asking to “remove any residue” so you never see it again? That is VERY odd. How does the existence of a story progression prohibit you from playing regular content you want to play?
For this sir you deserve a cookie. I think that it is really normal that someone does not like some kind of added content. But I do not get why it should be deleted so people who enjoy it cannot play it anymore.

I finished this in full pug but I know that there was some luck on our side. I hope there wont be content as this again. Yes, I like hard content and I hope for hard content but there are many ways to make content hard without doing it annoying.

Id rather see some expansion than living story.
With dungeons, events, locations, hearts, gears, levels..
Don’t forget personal story and actual voice acting for our characters. I don’t think my character has had one line of spoken dialogue since the introduction of the Living Story.
And new skills, maybe even new class? new weapons..

I am up for new approach but I really dont want to do some events and mobs grind again that just isnt a good content. Opening 100 doors to kill 100 skeletons, killing 100 holographic mobs, collecting 100 kites.. thats way more worse than minigames.
I think there should be some new things to satisfy you but I am fine with minigames too.

What-in-earth are you talking about? It takes maybe 4-5 hours to complete each meta of the latest round and that’s not even sweating it! You have two weeks to complete them. If you can’t spare 10 hours over 2 weeks, how in the name of everything that is good do you feel you should be entitled to get those achievements?
Every time I read these posts I’m beginning to feel my joke about people wanting the “achievements” mailed to them when they log in wasn’t a joke after all…
You make me lose faith in gamers. Gamers are supposed to actually play the games.
So what happens if during those two weeks I lose power? Or I am going on vacation? Or I simply do not feel like working on those? Those achievements are now completely lost, nothing I can do about it. If you look at an achievement system like World of Warcraft, those achievements are going to be around FOREVER. I could theoretically take a 6 month break, completely miss multiple tiers of content, come back, and start a run to work on those achievement points for boss kills, crafting, PvP kills, etc. I could be gone for multiple expansions and still be able to go back and get everything that I missed. Like I initially said in my post, it doesn’t matter if the task is challenging or not and I am in no way asking for it on a silver platter, but making something time limited does not add difficulty, only frustration.
I finished every temporary achievement so far and I share your opinion…
This two week madness is quite frightening for an achievement collector..

I finished this and I find this challenging.)
At first try it looked undoable but after a few tries and after realising when exactly do the plunderers spawn it wasnt that hard.

Yes of I do. But not every minigame can be played with friends. For example southsun survival would be really bad if you could join in party. For other minigames I agree with you.

That you didnt finish it doesnt mean its too hard. Finally they added some challenge and I am fine with that. If GW2 has over 2 million sold copies and 100 people are complaining on forums thats quite ok.
When I cant finish something, I say I am not capable of doing this. When others cant finish something, they say its badly created, lol.

By this time I finished the dungeon over 20 times and Ive finally achieved all the achievements. In those +- 20 runs I always ran with full pug party + max one member of my guild. We always got through the first boss with almost no problems (ofc someone died sometimes but we didnt wipe) and we wiped a few times on last boss ( but we wasnt able to finish the dungeon only once).
According to my PUG runs I believe that this dungeon isnt that hard but I also believe that achievements like: “Finish this under 15 minutes, dont get hit by laser or AoE” shoudnt be in game for 2 weeks. It isnt enough time for everyone to finish and its only stressful. Every content untill this one was easy to complete for every casual (in my opinion) and it should stay that way. I dont think that nerfing the fights is good idea.. nope.. but content like AR should be permanent (as a fractal for example) so people will be able to finish the achievements later and wont be stressed.
