Skotlex.7580 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Currently the big reward is given after defeating the doppelganger, but to get there one has to wait 20 minutes until Augury rock closes (countdown after defeating josso). For a meta event that now is on a timer, such a long wait will drive players away, in 20 minutes they could complete any other meta. Suggestion: keep Augury rock open for 20 minutes, but have the magic dispelling event trigger after opening the place (either immediately or one minute afterwards). That's all. If this delay continues people will get discouraged and just do other metas. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And... pray tell me how much time passes between defeating Josso and the closing down of Augury Rock? That's where the 20 minutes I am referring to are.

Shade.8971 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Agreed. Augury needs to stay open for any achievements but the doppleganger event should spawn soon after defeating the forgotten boss. I know for lore reasons augury rock closes after killing the doppleganger but I'm sure anet can find other excuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucianDK.8615 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 The crazed doppelganger outside Augury rock is not the one you should look for. While you fight the forgotten inside Augury rock, he spawns doppelgangers of everyone present. They count for the ach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance: Change: "Augury Rock is again sealed, but wild magical energy was released. Augury Rock is closed." into: "Wild magical energy has been released. Augury Rock is open. " It's not too strange to think that the wild energy released doesn't has to be tied to sealing off the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I am talking of the meta as such, and the daily reward box from which you can get an amalgamated stone, that one does require killing the crazy doppelganger. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaFishBob.6518 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 No one in this thread wants Augury Rock to close immediately after opening it, OP was just suggesting the wild magic event be available while Augury Rock is open so that the meta can continue for those who are not interested in reading the tablets.

If they want the doppelganger to be the end boss then it should really spawn a lot earlier like you suggest. It really doesn't make any sense to expect people to hang around for 20 minutes.
