Megaserver and world boss/other big events?

I am general positive about the megaserver changes. It seems to work well in TESO so there is no reason why it won’t work here in GW2.

My only concern is how GW2 is going to address the issue with world boss and other big events (eg LS, Scarlet invasions, etc) where these events are time gated based on Servers. Will they now all spawn at the same time across all serves? Or will I be forever be at the mercy of the RNG god since I can no longer select which server I go to?

TESO don’t have time gates on their wold events so there is no problems there. But in GW2 everything are heavy time gated. From events to resouces nodes to “so called” anti-farming measures (Diminishing returns). Are these things also going away to make this works? Or is it going to be a huge mess?
