Not getting credit for Daily Keep or Capture Exp from Askalion Hills

Constantly have gotten no daily keep credit or capture exp from Askalion Hills in WvW. I do get loot from the keep lord and do stand in the capture circle for an extended period of time.

Make sure you are in the circle on the floor and not on the stairs, i've seen that make a difference.

yea hills always have been bugged, if you don't stand in the circle you won't get the participation

If anet played this gamemode, this issue would have been fixed many years ago

Or just kill a guard.

Think they are suggesting there is a bug that requires being in the actual hills ring to get credit for the daily and not just regular capture credit.

nice to hear that!

There may be some others with raised points: South camp in alpine borderlands comes to mind in the north-western part of the capture circle.

Not a big deal, but I think most of the places where an elevated point exists within the capture circle, it may be an issue.

I’ve had it happen in south camp.

Yes that little hill has been a bad spot in the past. I just don't stand on it anymore.

@Ben Phongluangtham.1065 said:I'll see if I can make some adjustments. The issue at that point is that if we raise the capture volume too much higher, you'll be able to contest the point from some of the rooftops, which is not desirable.

Yeah they pretty close in height, just leave it alone. Keeps the node interesting or something.

Yep. Most of us know about it, and camp capturer would be easy to get elsewhere unlike keep capturer which... can be hard mid to end of week.

Thank you for looking into this. I have had this happen to me so many times, I hope it finally gets fixed.

There have been times I've tagged a lord for the loot and stood in the ring and haven't gotten credit for the capture. Weird and rare so I don't really talk about it, but it does happen.

I think the devs should screw with the players for a few hours on April 1st and have capture rings tie to different structures/objectives throughout the map. Like capping the circle in southeast camp actually flips west keep, while capping north camp flips a ruin and capping garrison actually flips south camp. That sort of thing. The gamemode could use some anarchy. =)

Can you imagine the amount of screeching the wvw forum would see?

Yes, it would be GLORIOUS!

Can we do it?

Fear it might last for a longer time than just the day so they would have to be careful with stuff like that.

Nah Kovu, just change all the Keep Lords to Tybalt, see how many people try taking Keeps then! RIP Tybalt. :'(

This has been a bug since launch.You can help kill the Lord but if you go out of the circle, you sometimes dont get the credit.Sometimes you can still be in the circle and not get it.I find it odd a dev claims to have never heard of this issue.It was raised multiple time, oh say 7 years ago!
