mungnung.9784 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Just adding my voice to this report. I try to run this meta often, and it is very frustrating that it fails because of bugged NPCs. Please fix soon. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucianTheAngelic.7054 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 This bug has been around since almost PoF launch. Anet clearly doesn't care about it nor plans to fix it anytime soon. Also bump, because it keeps happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skotlex.7580 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Guess I'll share what I have experienced in this bug.It's true that I've seen Folke disregard land height, and go floating / beneath terrain, even at the very beginning of the escort, before fighting any enemies. However, I've only run into this bug when the pre event for the east lane fails, each time I've participated in it and got it to succeed, Folke didn't bug out. So the bug might be more related to how the event is setup when the pre fails. I suggest, if you are attempting maw of torment, to go first for the east lane and leave the rest for later. Report back with your findings to provide Anet better information about the bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrilana.1396 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 It doesn’t involve the gemstore, it doesn’t block the story, nor is it from the most current release. I wouldn’t expect it to be fixed as they don’t have a team that fixes bugs since they all work on new content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowFae.9528 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) Update: (5/20/2021) We may have found a method of getting Folke to the portal, but it must be done precisely and with care: 1. Destroy all barriers in Folke's East sector; completing his lane is essential. It is unknown if failing completion in the other lanes will hinder his progress, but it is advised to complete his lane and destroy all of the barriers. Kite the targets and destroy the cannons as you go, but make sure all barriers are destroyed in his lane. 2. When it comes time for the escort, make sure you kite him using live enemy NPCs; his AI is broken to where it will only keep an eye on the most recent target, and so if the target is dead he will stay put. Make sure you drag an NPC to him and that they trigger his rifle, and he should move forward. If he makes it past the first archway to the Ruptured Heart, you'll know you're doing the procedure correctly. 2.5. Do not burst down the NPCs; make sure the group guiding Folke is a small team. Gunning down the NPCs before they pull him risks a full bug. The rest of your Squad can focus another lane to ensure you complete all three portals on time. This also occurs with every other Demolitionist, so take your time with the mob and let the Demo choose the target. 3. Keep kiting him with NPCs until he makes it near the portal site. He should automatically run and begin the portal. We've done this method several times in a row and it has been successful. Provided that all of the other demolitionists bug in their own unique way, but as long as you clear the first phase and barriers and let the demolitionists lead the way, you should be able to complete the "Maws of Torment" meta in the Desolation area. Update: If Folke becomes stuck, use your Skyscale on the portal site where you originally need to guide him to and attack it with its flame; one attempt should do. It should automatically spawn the Keeper and bypass any issues you have with Folke's path at the expense of portal spikes.

Jack the lycan.6810 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 This event is still broken as of 2021, how can this not be fixed?! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candacis.7048 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I wish they would fix it. And please also fix that the portals can be damaged with mounts and that you can damage them at all before the npc is at the portal. It makes it possible to bypass the whole pre-event and hurts players who want to complete the portal spiker achievement. It would be great if the portal could ONLY be damaged by spikes.

ShishaKingBlue.1689 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Just failed another time due to Folkes stuckness. Almost 5 years after release! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowFae.9528 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) IF STUCK, PLEASE READ: If Folke or any escorts become stuck, there is little-to-no chance you can provoke them into moving again, as mobs will not continuously spawn. The best thing you can do is allow the NPC to lead and exclusively target the foe that the NPC is gunning down and let them set the pace. If you clear mobs too quickly, the NPC will stay put "unprovoked". The solution to completing the Maws meta is to take your skyscales and go straight to the portal spike site, "1" (flame) it [the tall needle in the center] down with your skyscales, and kill the Keeper that spawns. You will not get credit for portal spikes, but you will move the meta forward to the final boss.
