Wurm bait achievement porblem

[fabjan.1769]

How many of as have it? It is last achievemen for killing grate jungle wurm wicth i can not get. I try four times. I kill Carrier Abomination but after that i do not get his curse. It is a bug or I do something wrong?

[Yargesh.4965]

Sometimes when it is cc'd it will bug out. Also are you killing the one just before the end of the escort?

[Chadramar.8156]

Which region do you play in? In Europe, there are daily TTW runs organized by several communities, in both English and German (and maybe other languages), with achievements explained by the commanders every time. OpenCommunity starts gathering for it at 9:20 PM CEST, and the actual event begins at 10pm if memory serves.

Yes i play in Europa. I kill first Carrier Abomination with Wurm Attractant and after that rest of mobs but i do not get Wurm Attractan. When I kill Amber Wurm head all work normal.

Likewise. Been doing what Dulfy says, yet the achievement just seems broken.

[Chadramar.8156]

I usually join Cobalt or Crimson, so my memories of Amber are really hazy, sorry. A quick Google suggests that some people have had issues with it over the years, so maybe, sadly, it's indeed buggy and you have to get lucky, as with the Tail Flail achievement on Tequatl. Try to join one of those community wurm-runs and ask your commander?

[MixolydianGray.6578]

I got the achievement the first time I tried it, so I'm surprised to hear that it's buggy.

If you can find a solid taxi on LFG, the commander will help with such things. I did Amber escort yesterday after finishing the dailies, and the commander put a marker down for the approximation of where the abomination was going to be. I didn't need it, but there were people in the squad who had never done Amber before, so it was helpful to them. I'm sure you'll be able to get the achievement in due time. :)

The problem with this achievment is that only about 20 people can get the gunk from the escort abomination on them each time so kindly ask squad to not be so many killing it since you need the gunk.

[Chadramar.8156]

That may well be the problem then. If you're with an organized group, the commander will probably point that out and ask anyone who doesn't need it to not stand there. The commanders I've run with definitely do that for the escort achievements at Crimson and Cobalt.

[MithranArkanere.8957]

The effect can only affect a certain number of players. Any other extra players won't get it. It's usually a matter of trying, and hoping people who already have the achievement move away so they don't take the effect from those who need it.

Important note: This achievement is part of the ESCORT to the AMBER WURM and is not gained by killing the Wurm itself. Towards the end of the escort a Risen Abomination will spawn and walk forward before BLOWING ITSELF UP and leaving a WHITE AOE CIRCLE on the ground that YOU HAVE TO STEP INTO in order to get the achievement.

The white circle does not remain for long so it's easy to miss unless you are standing on top of the Risen Abomination when it explodes.

Very important note: Killing the Risen Abomination BEFORE IT EXPLODES ON ITS OWN will cause it to NOT leave the white AoE circle meaning you will not be able to get the achievement. You must LET IT EXPLODE on its own.

It took me forever to get it because there was always someone who killed it instead of letting it explode. My use of capitalization is meant only to emphasize the important parts. I am a member of TTS on NA which frequently runs Triple Trouble, as such I have all of the Triple Trouble achievements and am speaking from personal experience.
