Guild Wars 2

I’m able to do teleporting on EU’s side atm. I don’t have any guest worlds left since I used both today, but feel free to whisper if you are having trouble with the JP and can guest on my server.

I have to agree with this. I don’t really like it when there’s 1 or 2 players in a group that want the achievements and other 3-4 don’t. This usually leads into arguments, whining, complaining and often, breaking the group apart. I love achievements myself, but I will never try and do those achievements unless everyone in the group is in the same boat with me. Usually this is not the case though. (These achievements should be done with guild/friend group anyway, to reduce the anger and frustration other players can cause by failing.)

Easiest way to make this dungeon more enjoyable would be, like Lord Erik said, to take those achievements away. You only get 15 achievement points per 1 achievement, which is a lot, but it basically ruins the run for most of the group if even 1 person is going for those achievements. If there was some kind of extra reward for doing the 15 minute achievement for example (like in some old WoW bosses where achievement was hardmode) I’d understand it being there…although even then it will frustrating to some people. Temporal content should NOT have achievements like these. Why not put these into permament dungeons?

My god is this boss a borefest. Even before the 100% health buff during 2nd phase this boss was boring. Now it takes 20-30 minutes to kill him. Also remember all the pre-events you need to do etc. so more likely around 40-50 minutes for this one boss that has guaranteed 1 rare drop.

PS. I’m writing this while I’m in the middle of the claw of jormag fight. Just standing still near ice pillars. Shows how difficult this fight is.

I agree. I really feel sorry for Anet for everyone complaining about tickets and whatnot. I myself like this living story a lot more than southsun. I especially love the whole investigating thing with this. In all honesty I’m getting sick of stuff where you just kill kill and kill enemies to make the story go on. Hopefully more “non-violent” content on it’s way.

Well I think Celery dye kinda sorta fits with the shield. Looks like it shares the same colour with the shield.

I actually happened to got those wings from Fields of ruin’s ogre event, during the last part where you kill boss’s bodyguards, one of them dropped those. It was NOT from a coffer, just a regular drop, like some random blue or green item.

It’s because of food buff. They use food buffs that give health regeneration, and since everyone has 100 health, that small health regen basically makes them immune to damage.

And yes, I agree, it kills all the fun in that game. I myself love that minigame and consider myself ok player there but need to fix that food bug.

I agree. Putting new mechanics in the boss fights can work, but very rarely. In WoW instance I hated the mechanics, and I really preferred doing the instance alone. Same with this boss. Just wish I could do the exp. mode alone too.

Ps. It’s oculus instance, not nexus. :P

I think game devs should definitely read this. I myself went and joined 1 match when this whole living story event started, and tbh I was lost, I had no idea what to do, where to go. All that happened was some huge veteran karka rolled over me, and pretty much stayed on top of me for the whole round while other players whined about lag and told person with the crab that he sucks and has nolife and whatnot.

The problem with pvp kind of stuff is and will always be the community. Only way to help this situation would be to add easy/hard difficulty like Pumpkin said. Also the problem with this activity are the achievements. I usually want to get as many achievements as possible. However I won’t do something that I don’t enjoy but it did annoy me quite a bit that this activity had 5 achievements tied to it (with 2 title ones).

I can’t really blame Anet too much though since this game is played by us players, and if players were nicer to each other it would fix most of the problems with this activity (and with many other not southsun related things).

I wish Anet would stop with “useless” updates like Rox’s tale etc. I’d rather have a game that actually works instead of super adventure box for example. Fix this already or atleast address this issue by responding here.

Really frustrates me.

Yeah, I’ve pretty much agreeing with everyone else. The worst part is some of the events that don’t even involve a chest are this bad as well. Like I was doing Rakkan—the skritt event where he walks past the tar elementals and makes his way to the champion mother drake—and they beefed up the champ a ton and it summons eggs, which turn into veteran baby drakes lol. I mean the most people I have EVER seen do this event on my server was 6 and that was a long time ago. I’m sure the overpopulated servers are handling this kind of silliness fine, but for the rest of us: tone it down. People everywhere are actually talking about switching games because now the one place they can work on their legendary has now been turned into fights that can last half an hour. At that point it has NOTHING to do with skill and everything to do with stamina with a keyboard and/or mouse. I thought this game was supposed to be casual player friendly. Don’t make events that only have 4 people present so overpowered.

Isn’t really any better in high populated servers. We basically can’t see the enemies during most events if there are lots of people. You just get instakilled. Yesterday our server, underworld (HIGH population server) could NOT finish Grenth temple event. I literally camped that event for over 6 hours during evening (thanks to hockey matches :P) and every time we failed around 30sec-3 minutes where you have to defend paperbag Jonez. Fix this already, it’s ridiculous.

Grenth temple haven’t been done today on Underworld server because of the increased difficulty. I think it’s silly that the reason we fail to protect keeper Jonez is that he can’t move away from the red circle on the ground that those shades(?) put under him. In my opinion that is extremely cheap way to make that event more difficult. Even with people using heals on him, and trying to take hits instead of letting Jonez take them, we still end up failing at 30sec-1min.

I don’t understand why they even needed to make this event more difficult. I think it was difficult enough, especially if you had some inexperienced players there who stood right on top of Jonez. Really wish they’d sort out champion spiders/shades etc. in Orr.

Open on Underworld (EU) atm. Not sure when this was completed so might get contested soon.

Open on Underworld (EU).

After 41 hours it’s still bugged. This is pretty unforgivable customer service I’d say. Could we get some information about the situation at least? Are you even working on this or have you noticed this bug?

Repaired the game files since the game crashed. I prayed that it would fix the problem but of course it didn’t.

Still need help with this.

Still bugged out for me, and for everyone else in my roster I’m sure. Any update Anet? You do realise that this doesn’t only affect us, but our tournament teams that need us for pvp.

Any update would be welcome..

Edit: I can actually join normal pvp matches now. Still can’t do anything about tournaments though. Help Anet.

Same happening to me. Infact me and Argon Man are both in the same roster, me being the leader of the group. Solve this asap. I can’t do normal or tournament matches at all because of this..

Happened to me aswell. Any ideas on how to fix this? Pretty irritating not be able to do any pvp at all (tournament or normal matches) because of this.

Edit: Will go to bed and see if it’s sorted tomorrow. At the time I’ve written this, the bug’s been on for around 11 hours.

Edit2: Still have the bug of not being able to do any sPVP. Will give up here and just pray that it fixes itself since this seems to be useless, trying to ask help here.
