--- DURING DRY RUN
join us
Event explanations on teamspeak right now guys! ts.gw2oc.org, Channel: Amber Wurm!
start
If you're not in teamspeak, please pay attention to these explanations in squad chat.
this wurm
In order to make our wurm vulnerable we have to do a specific task. We have to shoot the outside of the wurm with a harpoon - which we got from inside the wurms stomach!
phase 1
PHASE 1: We will kill the abomination and stand in its explosion to get the Wurm Attractant buff.
stack in front of wurm with buff
With this buff we then need to run to the marked spot in front of the wurm.
stab reflection
Place Reflections, apply stability and wait to get swallowed by the Wurm. If Husks/Veteran Jungle Wurms hit us, we might lose the Wurm Attractant buff and will not be getting swallowed.
reflect examples
Reflections examples: [&Bj4oAAA=], [&BiMkAAA=], [&BjUWAAA=]
stability examples
Stability examples: [&BmRvAAA=], [&BsEjAAA=], [&BiUkAAA=]
inside water fields
Once swallowed, place down any water fields you have and try to use AoE healing. You'll take damage while you are inside the wurm!
water fields examples
Water Fields examples: [&Bq8VAAA=], [&BskwAAA=], [&BuEWAAA=]
inside harpoon
Pick up a harpoon from the Unfortunate Adventurer behind you. Turn around and start shooting the Pyloric Valve with the #1 skill of the harpoon.
spit out
After killing the Pyloric Valve the wurm will spit us out. Stop shooting, hold on to your harpoon, do NOT drop it or weapon swap it away, we still need it. You can only shoot one more time!
condi cleanse
After getting spat out, apply condition cleanses and start moving to the right side of the wurm.
condi cleanses examples
Condition Cleanse examples: [&BtsnAAA=], [&BudyAAA=], [&BuMjAAA=]
slick skin
Before you use your last harpoon shot, ensure that you have targeted the Amber Wurm and that there is nothing in the way. Then shoot! If enough players (20) succeed, a burn phase will trigger.
--- WURM SPINS
spins
The wurm has two different kind of spins: a large spin attack and a small spin attack.
large spin
The large spin damages and knocks back all players in a large radius around the wurm. This is indicated by the wurm standing up/stretching and a large orange circle around it.
small spin
The small spin damages and knocks back all players as well, however in a much smaller radius. It's indicated by the wurm curling up on the ground and a small orange circle around it.
aoe spits
The small spin also creates AoE spits which fly all over the arena. These happen during the small spin and are indicated by small orange circle around the arena.
avoid orange circles
Make sure to dodge/avoid any orange circles (duh).
--- BURN PHASE
burn phase
The 'burn phase' is the phase, in which we stack inside of the wurm and heavily damage it.
cleaving weapons
During the Burn Phase, stack on the Comm for double damage spot. Use cleaving weapons! Examples: [&BronAAA=] [&BpZ3AAA=] [&BrcwAAA=] - everything with 'Number of Targets' greater than 1
might stack w/ might link
At the start of each burn phase we want to stack [&BphAAAA=]. For this we need to place fire fields and use blast finishers inside of them.
might stack w/o might link
At the start of each burn phase we want to stack Might. For this we need to place fire fields and use blast finishers inside of them.
fire fields
Fire Field examples: [&BtgwAAA=] [&BsVuAAA=] [&BuMjAAA=]
blast finisher
Blast Finisher examples: [&BjxtAAA=] [&Bk0xAAA=]
conjured weapons
@Elementalists: bring conjured weapons for the group to use: [&BvgVAAA=] (blast finisher on #1-chain, damage on #4), [&BowVAAA=] (damage on #1 and #5). These are also cleaving weapons!
warrior banners
@Warriors: please bring [&BkU4AAA=], [&Bkc4AAA=] and [&BlM4AAA=]. Place them outside of the stack (we want to be able to pick up conjured weapons), but still inside of fire fields (blast finisher)
other combos
Do not place any other combo fields until we are 5-7 secs into the burn phase, because we want to get 25 stacks of might through fire fields. Guardians, don't use your hammer until then.
traps & marks
@Necros, Rangers, Dragonhunter: Traps and Marks won't work on the first phase of the wurm - it's a structure. So don't waste your time placing/using them and swap them out.
timewarps & SoI
@Mesmers: please use [&BokoAAA=] and [&BvwnAAA=] after 5-7 secs into the burn phase or after reaching 25 stacks of might.
burn end
After Wurm stands up and you see 0 damage, move out, follow the Comm to clear the arena and wait for the debuff to disappear.
debuff
This debuff is the "Upset Stomach" and it was applied while we got spat out. We need to wait until it's gone to be able to regain the Wurm Attractant buff. Do not attack the abomination in this time!
husks
Avoid the three marked spots around the wurm – these are husk landing spots. Every 90 secs the wurm will spit out husks to these locations. If you get hit by one, you get downed!
repeat mechanic
We'll keep getting swallowed, picking up harpoons, shooting the wurm with them and burning the wurm afterwards until the wurms health reaches a certain threshold.
premature burn end 15%
When the wurm reaches 15% health we run out of the wurm and stop damaging it. Stay with Comm and possibly clean arena before decapitating the wurm.
phase 1 end
All 3 Wurms need to be decapitated within 1 minute. Once the other two Comms are ready, our Comm will initiate the final Abomination kill, afterwards burn the Wurm to 0 - save long cooldowns!
--- PHASE 2
phase 2
PHASE 2: In phase 2 the Wurm head burrows, stack on the Comm and try to always stay between the closest wall and the head. The wurm head will emerge after other 2 Wurms are decapped.
wurm actions (short)
When the Wurm head charges, dodge to the side (or you will go down). When it jumps in the air, dodge the slam or proc Stability to avoid knockback. When it wiggles around, unleash damage.
wurm attacks overview
The wurm will randomly perform three different attacks during this phase. These are: Wiggle, Flop and Charge.
wiggle
Wiggle is a normal (and very short) burn phase, but the next attack will be a Flop or a Charge.
wiggle (wolfie)
Wiggle (also known as wobble) is a normal (and very short) burn phase, but the next attack will be a Flop or a Charge.
flop
Flop is an AOE around the wurm, you should dodge this or use [&BmIEAAA=]
charge
If the wurm performs a charge it'll target a random unit in the arena and charge to it. Dodge left or right when the wurm charges! We want to bring the wurm to charge into a wall and get it stuck.
player adds
Please shatter your illusions, destroy your minions and turrets, put pets on passive/call them back before and during phase 2 - otherwise the wurm might charge in their direction.
end
Once all 3 wurm heads are dead the event is over and you get your rewards!
--- BEFORE ESCORT (General)
food & banners
[&AgEamwAA] and food will be dropped at [&BKoBAAA=], around 2 minutes before the escort event starts.
move back, food & banners
Now we'll move back to [&BKoBAAA=] where a [&AgEamwAA] and food will be dropped soon.
food explain
@condi classes: Veggie Pizza is on the hill - @power classes: Truffle steaks are next to the waypoint - everybody grab the banner buffs! If you are not sure what you are, grab the truffle steaks!
--- DURING ESCORT (General)
eggs invuln
During the escort, there will be several sets of eggs, which are initially invulnerable. They can however be damaged by life siphoning abilities during this time.
egg life siphon
Necros, please equip the trait [&BzQHAAA=] (from the Blood Magic traitline) for group siphon damage, Revenants can use [&BjlpAAA=] for personal siphon damage. Use cleaving weapons!
egg prio
Prioritize killing eggs > larvae > wurms, not only during the escort but also during the event itself. That means, that even if there are larvae, kill remaining eggs first!
community rules
Please keep also the following rules in mind:
rule 1
Rule #1: Pick up downed people - it doesn't take long and is incredible helpful.
rule 3
Rule #3: Have fun, but not at the expense of others.
nutrients w/ parasites link
Also keep away and do not interact with "Nutrients" (mushrooms), these will give you [&Bn1YAAA=] and make you puke/stun you every some seconds - if you puke on others they will get stunned too.
nutrients w/o parasites link
Also keep away and do not interact with "Nutrients" (mushrooms), these will give you parasites and make you puke/stun you every some seconds - if you puke on others they will get stunned too.
subgroups
Players will be/were organized into different subgroups, this is done to improve boon sharing during the burn phase. Please be aware that from now on you need to use squadchat (/squad or /d) to chat with the rest of the squad.
tldr
Summary: stack with your commander and do what your commander does. GL & HF!
--- DURING ESCORT (Amber)
