[BUG & Solution] Tower Down Level 70


Recommended Posts

@Jeffrey Vaughn.1793 said:Ok I believe I found and fixed the issue with Tonn becoming unresponsive at the end of the chapter. (Coming to a future update, as usual.) I'm continuing to look at the problem where he stalls at one of the other towers, but so far I can't reproduce it--I've only seen it once in about 20 play throughs.

Did you managed to also get rid off the bug where the mission objective is to talk to Tonn, and pick the way to destroy the big ship, but the conversation doesnt start? thats also a thing....

same issue here, only i am at the end of the mission and everything is dead, I'm supposed to speak to Tonn but when i try to I'm only getting generic asura greetings instead of the dialogue box with options to advance to the next mission.Edit: just did another run through where I went with the immersion-breaking "kill everything before starting the initial dialogue" and now hes stuck on tower 2.

I have found a situation where the "Clear the beach of undead" objective can appear to stall because some of the enemies you need to defeat aren't very obvious, especially if you go directly from tower 2 to tower 3 instead of backtracking through the caves. I've also found a case where that objective can stall in multiplayer. I have one report of Tonn stalling at tower 2, but it's unclear exactly where it's stalling. (The report doesn't indicate if he finished blowing up tower 2 or not.)

There seem to be a multitude of ways it can fail, mostly to do with mobs being trapped in scenery. The only way I have completed it successfully is by first walking the map killing all of the mobs that are "pre-spawned" (including the Risen brute that sometimes disappears into the barnacles of the first tower) before speaking to Tonn. Also waiting by the third tower until I have been charged by the 2 sets of 2 krait and killing them before running back to Tonn and walking through with him and the others.

Had this happen twice today. Since this is a pretty long quest and boring to do three times I'm done with this for now and will wait till there's a solution. I've absolutely positively cleared the beach both times (high killspeed with AOE) and Tonn just stands there at the third tower, following me around.

I just had the same issue; tried two times and finally had to look up bug fixes:I tried the bug support where you clear the entire area of all enemies before you talk to Tronn at the beginning of the mission. Worked perfect when I did it. I recommend to try that if you're still having issues. I found that there are enemies that get "stuck" in the rubble from the towers, and thus are missed and don't count towards the "Clear the Beach" parts, even though the mission will continue forward.

September 26 and this is still not fixed =/ had to look down on how to get over that bug to advance. Like people mentioned, you have to kill everything before talking to Tonn but having to do it twice in the same character and even waiting for the NPCs to get places (they walk so slowly...) Is really annoying :/ also, the Issue Tracker page is broken. Please fix stuff >.<

Ok Guys, September 30 and I did it! this is how:1) Killed everything BEFORE talk to tom. Special attention to those risen that ARE INSIDE THE TOWERS, they just spawn there try to use AOE skills to kill them, they can go through the ruins, but you don't, so try to hit them with any aoe skill and they will go after you.2) Didn't ress anyone in the 3rd tower .3) Dont skip cut scenes.4) Tom was stalling after he explodes the 2nd tower but dont care about him and keep going thru the cave, always stand close to the pack.When I reach the 3rd tower tom just spawn there and destroy the tower. I tried to stay at the end of the hill with the others guards when he destroy the tower (idk if that helps or not but i could make it xd).

  • I never had the ''tom not responding'' issue because i never got this far before. I was stuck because tom never moves from tower 2 and the mule stalls at the 3rd tower camp. (Tom was stalling after he explodes the tower in the same spot that he left the bomb).

It just happened to me too. I'm at the last tower, it sais "Escort Tonn's team to the undead towers", but him and the Pack Marmox stopped way back and made camp and not moving even after i killed the monsters at the tower. Is this intended? Is something i'm supposed to do now to make them move to the tower? Because if so, it's not clear at all. This is a huge bug and i feel most disappointed in spending money on something like this. And the problem seems to be out there for so long it makes me regret even more.

He is hiding in a demolition pile and you cant target him, he is in the 1st demo pile i believe it is right in the middle i tried to take pics but when i take them it don't show his name in the pichttps://imgur.com/a/2V8nEHPNow get to work ANET and fix it

Zoom in to see his name just tried it, AOE that Biach i just got him, go get em guys

I think i should get some gems for that one ;)

Update, Clear the whole board before initiating the quest, once that bug sets in it dont go away till you restart mission. So just go clear everything go in the water etc.. Everything must die before you initiate the mission

Storyline "Tower Down" bug where Demolitionist Tonn won't move or talk to you at the beach and third tower: When you blow the first tower there is one "risen" that gets stuck in the demolished tower. You only see it sporadically from different angles. Hard to kill because it's obstructed. Got it finally from the water's edge side and you have to blast it down quickly or it heals. I didn't have a problem after that with "Clear the Beach" or talking to Tonn. Hopefully this helps with this "bug"

This is very helpful, and thank you for sharing it! Players -- does this work for you?

I'll also let Jeffrey know about this post, so that he can assess if the risen in the tower is, indeed, a bug that needs to be corrected.

Thanks again, @Crashalot.8406

I cant beleive, Anet. It takes you more than 8!! months to fix a single stuck risen?Yesterday I completed teh mission, watched cutscenes and moved with the squad.Then skipped cutscene on other charachter, and two times Ton is stuck near second blowed tower.8+ months after bug is reported. Unbelievable. The most boring mission is still broken and I have to replay it
