Guild Wars 2

Lysico.4906:

your GS, Sword, staff etc all will do aoe for you..

Staff would have worked, didn’t think about the staff attack, that might be the optimal weapon for this sort of thing. but the others are on quite a long recharge to be useful for this sort of thing i find and some of the areas are smaller than swing arc (like the symbol skills for instance)

Lysico.4906:

Got it last night.. daughter and I stayed. Was easy.

She aoe’ed with her elm and I put sword in main hand on thief and just spammed.

Took 5 mins if that (some stuff broke during the normal event)..

4 hours op?? That can’t be right.

4 hours is about right, not all in one go, but spaced out over 3 or so attempts

edit: I play a guardian and I haven’t really got many aoe skills unlocked at this point beyond my elite, maybe I should get some. I’ve just been running around with my 2h sword

TigerDragon.4037:

There is a tree that is hard to get to near where the griffon nests are at. You may be overlooking this one. A guild mate and I did this achievement the other day, and that was the last one we destroyed … took us a few minutes to find it after everything else was crushed.

I’ll try looking over there next time, I don’t recall anything tricky over there, so maybe that’s what I’m missing? Although I don’t know how I would miss it with the rigorous searching I’ve done when i was trying to get the achievement

Edit 2:
I just got it. I tried the suggestion about spamming attacks near towns, and it worked, I destroyed something that must have been invisible in 2 different towns, I couldn’t tell that anything was unbroken and I couldn’t tell what broke, but I did damage and it got me the achievement.

Thanks for the help guys.

I spent probably 4 hours total over the last couple of days trying to do this, sometimes by myself sometimes with a group, but I cannot seem to get this achievement.

Always the same thing happens, I run around smashing everything for 5-10 minutes, then find 1-2 unsmashed pieces, a random tree, a fencepost in a wall etc. during the following few minutes. then nothing at all from then till I give up

I’ve checked everywhere I can think of, ran gridpatterns to try to find the last piece, tried smashing random boxed behind the cardboard scenery just in case one of them was destructible, tried smashing machinery and decorations on the ring up above and up the various stairs, but I cannot seem to find anything at all.

One thing I have noticed that makes me think it might possibly be bugged is 1 pieces of indestructible wall just north of the black citadel model, imbedded partially in the rock next to it, can’t destroy this nomatter how I try. Also there’s a tower just south of the divinity reach model on a cliffside that doesn’t look quite connected to the city (although it is really close to it) and has the same model as other towers in the area which also cannot be destroyed.

If those 2 are not necessary for the achievement, then I can’t for the life of me figure out what I’m missing.

Are there any destructible objects up on the floating platform or up the stairs to some of the NPCs that aren’t obvious?

Well, apparently the game is dying. I read it on the official forums, so it must be true!

The fact that they even allow you to transfer for free is amazing, a day, a week or a month restriction on it is completely fair.

The game is definitely not dying, It’s just gotten over the launch bump, every game goes through this.
