Yuuuup still broken for me too. Extra maddening since there's this "Return to Season One" rush event right now. I'd hope they'd fix story blocking issues in season 1 before highlighting that content again, but no, they don't care at all.

One of the things I love(d) about GW2 is that they promised at the start that they wouldn't invalidate your gear, and they've stuck to that pretty well. This is a direct violation of that, and sets a very bad precedent.. This feels like a huge f-you to to folks (like myself) who worked hard for a set of legendary runes so we could easily change builds and gear up extra toons without having to ever farm/buy runes again. Now, we have to farm relics just to recreate our existing builds. It's a straight up QoL regression. It's also taking functionality away from players without lege runes, as they will have to farm relics just to bring their existing gear up to the level is was at before, but this is a one-time thing, and IMO it's somewhat compensated by the minor QoL improvement that relics give people without lege rune sets. I don't dislike the relics system itself, I just think they haven't fully thought through the impact on existing players and the precedent it sets. Making the relic slot function as a lege if you have 6 lege runes seems like it would largely fix the problem.

Still not fixed as of the Feb 28th patch

Agreed. It really feels like they didn't think this through at all when adding the legendary armory. Currently, if you get the raid armor for the skins, then any resources you have already spent on PvP or WvW lege armor will essentially have been completely and utterly wasted.

I just tried the episode on a different character on my account, and hit the exact same bug. I can also confirm that using a fresh install on a different machine does not help. So it seems like it may be an account level progression blocking issue.

Yup, this has happened to multiple people, no known workaround

Yeah, I have been stuck for several weeks on this same problem and have been similarly unsuccessful working around it 😕

This happened again today, so apparently it's still broken.

I would love to see an option to share kill credit with my party in WvW. As a DPS player I get more kill credits because I get more tags. But I can only get those kills because I have support players providing me with heals, cleanses, stab, etc. They deserve credit for those kills too. I try to tip my party's firebrand and/or scrapper some of my heavy loot bags to thank them for the essential role they provide. However I often forget, or don't catch them before they log, and regardless they still miss out on WXP from kills and associated achievement progress. Please fix this and give my support friends the credit they deserve. This is a QoL issue from a DPS player perspective because passing rewards on to support players is an error-prone chore.

Awww, and I was so excited to be getting a marginally less tiny reward from WvW. Oh well, I enjoyed it while it lasted 😞

This fight was miserable as a greatsword guardian, as it massively penalizes melee builds, limits respeccing by blocking inventory, and is at the end of a long mission so you can't easily start over. The inhale/heal is really hard to escape when you have to be in close to do any damage, and it essentially resets the fight. I ended up exploiting the fact that it gets stuck on terrain as long as you stay at least 600 away... And the only skill I had that would reach it was staff 3, which took about 25mins to kill it ????
