This app uses the GW2 API to collect data in regards to the World Boss Events for eg: Shadow Behemoth.
Simple native android app User Interface to facilitate an easy way of monitoring the events. The events will auto refresh every 1 minute.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Currently the API does not cater for DateTime stamp. As this app runs purely on the APIs, it becomes a local tracking in regards to the timer. Thus do not over rely on the timer. On initial launch, the timer will be likely not accurate.
After a event has been encountered, the timer will be updated accordingly. If the app is not used for a period of time, the timer will be calculated base on the number of cycles base on (Time To Window duration + Window duration) as there is no data as to when the last event was encountered.
This timer feature will be the number 1 priority as soon as the APIs get updated.
Features to be implemented
- Auto reset of checkboxes when 100% rare reward is reset
- More events (Looking for User Contributions)
- More wacky event messages (Looking for User Contributions)
