Tony.8659 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 The two achieves: Strong as Bear, Sharp as Wolf and Silent as Leopard, Clever as Raven seems you can only choose one to do because I have no way to reenter the Wildfire instance again so I can do Silent as Leopard, Clever as Raven. Is this a bug? I quit the episode started again, and nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you even think before releasing updates out? Or at the least explain on what we can and cannot get in these story instances. In all my 8.5+yrs plus all betas this is the worst content by far, in terms of communicating and grind content. You add in achieves and then no explanation on when it will be available. We all make guesses as to when it will be but this is just the worst design. Please email those surveys, I can't wait. Oh I'll give you feedback alright.

Tony.8659 Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I was on Guild Jen's site, she's like Dulfy with the guides and I think she didn't figure it out either: Strong as Bear, Sharp as Wolf – 3APStory Instance: WildfireDuring the instance where you play as Braham, you need to kill most of the Destroyer minions in the path, I’m not really sure which is the exact number, so to be sure is recommended that you kill every single one.NOTE: It seems the number is “less than 5 alive” but not completely accurate.NOTE: This achievement and the next one are mutually exclusive, you will need to run the instance two times. Currently there is no way to replay the instance without restarting the story.Silent as Leopard, Clever as Raven – 3APStory Instance: WildfireThis achievement is the opposite of the one above, you need to avoid killing the Destroyer minions in the path, not sure if you can kill a few and still get credit so I recommend that you avoid all of them.NOTE: It seems the number is “less than 5 killed” but not completely accurate."Currently there is no way to replay the instance without restarting the story." Well you can't restart it at all. Arenanet you really messed up this whole release, though I'm not surprised anymore going forward I guess now this is normal for them, it seems.

Carcharoth Lucian.1378 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 @"Tony.8659" We have Anet's answer on this matter :https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/124881/replaying-icebrood-saga-champions-chapters#latestAt the moment, it's not possible to replay instances in Champions chapters. This is because the ability to replay episodes becomes available after completing a full episode, and the Story Journal recognizes Champions as one episode within The Icebrood Saga's story arc. We apologize for the inconvenience, and all of the Champions instances will be available for replay after the final chapter is released in April.Ahah (-_-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anet you guys deserve an award for the worst 4 chapters of this Saga so far. I say 4 because the next one will be the same. Grind 5x each of 3 missions again, blah , blah. If I didn't need the extra achieve points to get to 30k for full Hellfire armor this content would actually collect dust if it could. I would never touch it. I'm almost there which is the good part , bad part is this content, only one positive thing I can say, at least you gave us more time to actually finish them all with all CMs active, even with PUG groups, you should at the very least add more time to the Snowden Dragon Response Mission. I'm done with that only thanks to a raid group. Probably will be no point to comment any more even with chapter 4 unless there is some game breaking bug. I just hope this type of content does not go into End of Dragons. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HnRkLnXqZ.1870 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Finally had some time to run a few tests and managed to figure something out that appears to work. There is a way to do all achievements with a single character:You descent the chimney the way you want until the achievement is complete.Then you die. I jumped into the giant lava area, but dying to a mob also works.When the checkpoint prompt shows up, you click on "Exit to Eye of the North"Re-Enter the story instance and do the other achievementThis can even be done after the Lieutenant has been slain. Just walk straight towards the dragon and wait for the burn-stacks to break you down. Even then, when you exit the instance, you start right from scratch of it. It is not a perfect solution, but it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even playing most of them once is hard to bear. You done f…ed it up – again!Even if, right now, you could replay the instance on the same character, you would not be able to complete diametrically opposed achievements. The two opposed achievements get rewarded when you fall down the chasm so you can just relog at that point to work on the other achievement. I had missed all three achievements and got another character through to that story point. I was then able to get all three and without actually having to beat the instance. For those that don’t want to run another character through, go on LFG and hope you can find an instance opener assuming that works. I haven’t personally tested it.

Maria Murtor.7253 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I saw people taking 5 gold for opening the instance, which made me almost puke. If I weren't so lazy and the missions so tedious, I would play the story with another character to open Wildfire for free to spoil the "fun" for these sellers.

Mackanstein.2503 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Something I discovered today, if you swap story chapter for achievements and return to Champions later the story resets to Consult with Aurene even if you finished the recent patch's story already. It effectively makes you do the entire story step again, including Wildfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drogo Barberia.6239 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Drm is the worst yet released by arenanet in all time. They put absurd collections to force players to do and still managed to put 2 achievments in the same instance that need to repeat all the drms to make the second. arenanet congratulations. Please delete all drms and release more strikes, raids, fractal.... check bots in pvp, make aliances on wvw. AND PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR PLAYERS.

Drogo Barberia.6239 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 When the instance is over you cannot repeat to catch the other one, you have to do the story again passing through the 3 drms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
