World Boss Rush
“We think the biggest, baddest monsters terrorizing Tyria’s farmlands, swamps, coastlines, tundra, volcanos—and more!—have gotten a little too comfortable in their routines. We’re shaking things up by hitting them where it counts—right in the loot drops.

Achievements[edit]
Community Goal[edit]
Throughout the event, a progress bar will track the progress of the Community Goals. The tracker updates in 15-minute intervals, increasing as more of the above World Bosses are slain.
Community Goal progress and rewards will only appear when the character enters the maps that are part of the World Boss Rush as well as the six cities. The Community Goal progress and rewards won't appear in instances such as Guild Halls, Mistlock Sanctuary, and the Lion's Arch Aerodrome.
Players will receive rewards for all tiers, so long as they participate in one.

Halvora Snapdagger Bonus Event: Boss Rush[sic] The Order of Whispers has a field operation that requires your assistance. Agents have identified a number of crises brewing across Tyria. We need to cut off those threats before they destabilize the area. Pay attention to the intel for hot-spot locations, and then handle those events as they occur. You're welcome to any spoils you find, of course, and the Order will also be issuing rewards as goals are met.—HS PS: You know the drill. Burn after reading.

Our targets have been hit. This operation is marked as a success. Well done. Of course, you're encouraged to proactively seek and eliminate these threats to Tyria. We'll continue issuing intel as agents withdraw.—HS PS: This message won't self-destruct, but you'll burn it yourself if you know what's good for you.
