Hello all, I alerted the people who were looking into the problem last week so they can look into why it's happening again for some of you. I'm sorry you're running into it!

Now that Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure is available to play, we'll be archiving this forum in one week and moving all active conversations about the live game to the General Discussion forum so you can keep chatting. Starting today, all new discussions about SotO content should go in the main subforums. Thank you!

Bug Fixes: Fixed a graphic issue with the water in Snowden Drifts. Corrected the astral acclaim awarded for the "Earn 1 reward from a PvP Reward Track" Wizard’s Vault daily objective to 10 from 25. Fixed an issue that caused guild hall upgrade icons to not display properly.

Well that was uh, exciting. Sorry about the hiccup there, everyone, and thank you for being patient!

Yikes! We're looking into this now.

Read on for our latest update!

Fixed an issue that caused the "Complete the Cosmic Observatory Strike Mission in Normal or Challenge Mode" Wizard's Vault special objective to mark itself as redeemed rather than completed when players finished the strike. Fixed an interaction that caused the "Convince Zaishen deserters not to return to the Forged stronghold" event chain in Skyward Marches to occasionally stall.

Hey all, first I want to apologize for the slow reply on this. I've been out of office for a bit but am back now and reviewing a lot of things! 🙂 One of our designers reached out to me today to let me know that the team has been aware of this bug and are working on a fix. I'll keep you posted as I am able, but for now I wanted to pass along the info I do have.

Bug Fixes: Fixed an issue that could prevent the Going the Extra Mile achievement from being properly awarded.

9/12/2023–Skritt! Black Lion Stolen Goods Recovery Event There’s been a break-in at the Black Lion vaults! A band of skritt-led thieves absconded with some of the trading company’s goods, and Evon Gnashblade wants them brought to justice. At the very least, he wants some of the goods removed from their possession to teach them that vault-robbing is not a worthwhile pastime. Report to the vaults near the Trader’s Forum in Lion’s Arch to learn more.

😞 I'm sorry about that! We've got a fix for it incoming very soon, though.

I just checked in on this--we are aware and working on a fix.

@MickeyMouse.3590, have you checked on any third party programs? As noted in the post I linked below: "the game may not launch or work properly after we release a new build if you use a third-party program, due to possible incompatibilities. "
