Upcoming Bug Fixes

[Gaile Gray.6029]

Thanks to player reports and our own observations, we've identified a few bugs we're going to be correcting later this month. The list below is not comprehensive, but we wanted to give you a heads up about a few known issues:

• Mount Maelstrom Mastery Point currently is inaccessible.
  • This was not intended, of course, and we'll make this Mastery Point accessible again.
• Marmoxes in the wrangling event in Sandswept Isles can be killed using mount engage skills.
  • Again, not intended. Soon, marmoxes will be wrangled in more marmox-friendly ways.
• A couple of gates in the Sandswept Isles races may not always turn green when properly crossed.
  • We'll get that fixed so you know you've successfully hit the gates.
• The Position Rewinder currently is able to mark aerial locations.
  • This is not a good thing, and we'll correct it to eliminate possible exploitation.
• Some players report that they have not being able to earn the Three Golem Monte achievement.
  • We'll ensure that everyone who earns the achievement gets credit.
• Awakened ambushes currently occur too frequently
  • Because too-frequent spawns can impact your ability to complete other objectives, we'll adjust the rate of these ambushes.
• Certain Awakened mummies spawn too often in the Damos Isle lab.
  • This can be exploited for unintended rewards, so we'll ensure that mobs are spawning at anticipated rates.

Jormag must be attacking as well coz it got cold all of a sudden.

Is there a way to get a more specific idea on the time for the Mount Maelstrom Mastery point fix? It's preventing people from working on the legendary.

Thanks for keeping us updated! =)

  • This is not a good thingHow so? I don't see your point here, do you want to say that an item which encourages people to be creative is somehow not a good thing? Whatever happened to "allowing the users a lot of flexibility"?

[Wagnard.4027]

I am still waiting for the fix for the driftwood spawn...

[morrolan.9608]

Where is the fix for the final fight of the living story where you get stuck in the instance if you kill Lonai too fast? Or has this been fixed?

[Rauderi.8706]

The Position Rewinder currently is able to mark aerial locations.Okay, I savvy why marking aerial locations might be unintended / bad.

But, is the RECALL going to stay available in the air?...Or do I need to do Chalice of Tears before this gets patched?

[Asur.9178]

While at it, can you also fix the bugged and missing animations on the branded jackal skin? People paid actual $ for that, and it's pretty messed up that they get a bugged skin.

[superstolica.2167]

What about the mount in floor bug?

[Ayakaru.6583]

What about the graphical bug that makes the fire of the Destroyer Wings backpack look green instead of normal fire-red?

It takes you back to a location you already reached. How can that possibly be exploited?

[Vagrant.7206]

Uhh...

What about the bugs afflicting the scrapper? IE Function Gyro bug, Adaptive armor bug?

I don't know if it's the same bug, but there's a Dev post in the thread about the Scrapper Gyro bug.

Good luck.

They will spawn after every meta event Djinn kill. Spawning from the west to the east of northen island + 1 should be on the middle island where we came into the map.

Just gonna point out, they are not bugged, their full name is Vine Touched Destroyer Wings. You would know exactly what that means and why they are Green if you played Rising Flames, in which these wings first released.

From what I noticed it's always the first gate and same thing happens in Istan race too; either it doesn't light up until player dismounts, mounts again, sometimes talks to the npc anchor - mostly in Istan case or it lights up in half when player rounds one pillar - loosing race time in all cases

(I know, it's called sarcasm.I just hate the fact anet made the silly version of the wings and didn't release a normal version first)
