Dragon Stand Strats (SPOILERS)
« on: October 30, 2015, 09:45:43 am »
So with HoT there's a bunch of map meta events that play out in a way similar to Triple Trouble that we can attempt. One that particularly interests me is Dragon Stand, it's effectively a map dedicated to a boss.

The zerg splits into 3 lanes, fights through hoardes of enemies and then are met with a tower boss - this is where real coordination is required, I've never completed it as random people lack coordination.

Found this on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3qqal6/dragon_stand_meta_the_circle_strat/

It details how others have successfully done it, posting here for future reference. Any more discussion/info on how we can nail this please make it known :D

there is something weird in that strategy it claims that the boss group kills without sync and then goes help keep preservers at bay, but the other day we had a reset of all bosses after mid was lagging behind and i was hearing as confirmation we need to sync the kill. Did they change something or was information based on lack of knownledge of event? unfortunately didn't have much time to check it out and tts schedule is pretty much random so it's difficult to figure out when they do it without afking on my na account.

Sounds interesting  but I'm not even going to click that link until I've had more time to spend in HoT. Only done 2 maps partially so far as I've been distracted with fractals but km on holiday next week so progress shall be made. Until then I don't want to spoil the surprise

Maybe we should setup a Commander/Coordinator meeting to discuss what and when we want to pick up on these new events. So far I have seen at least 3 event cycles to could be interesting for us to organise, and I agree this one (dragon stand) looks most challenging, although I haven't run the event myself. We could also organise a night (or multiple) in which we just peak at the different events to see what they are actually about and start putting together some strategies for ourselves.

According to their thread, the run round in a circle method seems to work better than the '5 to a pod - keep it down scaled' method (which is obviously flakey as it relies on pugs not wandering into you...) Also someone clearly stated that sync kill isn't needed - you just have to make sure no pods come back up until all 3 towers eventually fall.

That's second phase it's mostly a question of proper builds.

I have joined in some of the meta events and like to help set up a solid strategy for clearing them and get my feet wet with commanding.

Just completed it myself. The 10 people fighting the boss + zerg circle is by far the easiest way. Biggest problem I've seen with pugs thusfar is "we need more at X" and then everyone on the map goes to X leaving a problem back where they left....
