Guild Wars 2

So I’ve been commanding turrets on several different occasions when we should have accomplished Flawless defense for Tequatl?

The first instance on the main server, all others who were NOT on turrets got the achievement, while the six people who were on turrets did not.

The second time, we had many people that can confirm that no turret went down on the north or south side, and no one got the achievement.

If I could get a response from the devs, I would be very grateful. My guild leader and I have been trying, despite the bugs, for several days now.

Thank you.

Hey guys! I was one of the turret operators for the successful Beastgate first world takedown of Taco, so I have some helpful hints.

1. If you are not on a turret, defend a turret.

2. Turret is the only thing that matters. (yeah ok maybe I’m kidding. A bit.)

If you are on a turret, you have five skills available to you.

#1, your standard turret attack. Use ONLY in the sixty-second stun period that tequatl goes into after getting fired at with the megalazer. When he is stunned, you are doing almost 10k damage every two seconds, otherwise it’s not worth it. (Keep an eye on your clenses during this period.)
#2, the debuff. Very important. Always keep on a cooldown just to be safe. When Blackgate managed to beat him we did lose a turret or two that made the wall go up very early. We recovered immediately, but I don’t recommend it.
#3, Cleanse. CLEANSE CLEANSE CLEANSE. Very important. Target the green cloudy stuff. That cloudy stuff can wipe your raid in the right place in four seconds. (Also, raids, please be sure you are close enough to both the east AND west turrets, half the time the west turrets cannot reach you with cleanse and buffs if you are too far on Tequatl’s right).

#4, Damage buff. Important, try and use this buff and target large numbers of grouped dps.
#5, Protection buff. Essentially the same as #4. Target large groups as often as the skill lets you.

I just got to this quest and had the same problem. I haven’t tried jumping on top of the door since it seems to lead to problems later, but I restarted three times just to check.
Guess I’ll be waiting for a fix.
