(couldnt think of a shorter title, oops)
The renown heart in The Desolation "Help Drojkor, Spirit Quall, control jackals." (the heart you do in order to get the sand jackal mount) has an issue with some of it's activities:
Tormented Remnant Dust Devils, which you are meant do the pounce skill (jackal attack skill) on in order to remove the "Tormented Protection" buff enabling you to attack them, no longer works - you can pounce but it will not remove the Tormented Protection boon, thus they cannot be defeated and so one cannot get progress on the heart in this way.
Additionally, using the pounce skill to put barrier on Veteran Exhausted Jackal Runeforgers has never worked/contributed progess on the renown heart since release (which is something Drojkor describes as an aid to the djinn, though the heart doesn't specify it, I feel it is supposed to contribute.)

Have been experiencing this same issue just now. Going to be a slow heart I guess.
I'm experiencing the same problem today, hasn't been fixed yet.
Old post but I'm experiencing this for the first time today sooo... still not fixed.
slow heart?
well the small balls of energy respawn pretty quick guys just jump around alittle.
Been doing it since launch. The bug must have been misplaced at anet.
I've just put in a fix for this. Once it's tested and confirmed it'll be going out with a future content update.

Thanks for update keep up the good work.
Oh, now I can see I wasn't doing nothing wrong, and it's just a bug - thanks for confirming fix is on its way
I add also that taking Unbound energy back to Drojkor does not increase progress bar
It'll only advance progess once you get 10 stacks of unbound energy and you start glowing, so taking back only one or two stacks won't work
This bug seems to have returned. Pouncing on dust devils isn't working, pouncing on exhausted allies isn't working.
Can confirmed this. Did not work too.
This is a constantly re-occuring bug and has been for years now. I've stopped reporting it, because there does not seem to be a point to it.

No more LW episodes, only Expansions and Side Stories, please!
Like many other bugs
Yes. You can be certain that, once it gets fixed, it will be back with the next patch - why, though, remains a mystery to me.

still not fixed.
Was wondering what was going on... Still broken.
Wanted to add, it seems that this still is not working...
Ive tested pouncing through, directly on top of, into the path of, and slightly behind to try and account for possible lag, and the pounce skill *never has an impact on the tormented remnant dust devils or on exhausted jackal runeforgers.
I'm also experiencing this.
I could not take down any Tormented Remnant Dust Devils with the Pounce Skill on the jackal, so I just went around collecting the Unbound Torment Energy orbs and completed the heart event that way.
Wow....very old bug and still not fixed. Glad it wasn't me just doing something wrong.
Just tried doing it today, still the same issue, pouncing on dust devils does nothing.
Me as well.
