Saniyah.1984 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Kevach's Homestead [&BHEBAAA=]I tried to catch the barrel, but it's won't let me catch it even if i stood in the AoE where it drops?Is it broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega.6801 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I've been asking myslef that since release and kinda moved on. I think it's a mechanic that's not working as intended and not getting much attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 If it is broken, it is a recent thing since it works for me. I think u just have to be in the circle and press the catch button if memory serves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saniyah.1984 Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 I tried pressing F and Jumping, but it won't let me even if i stood before the barrel fell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I'll go an test it in a min, but I don't recall ever needing to jump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenleto.6179 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I’ve never been able to do it. I think I’ve only ever seen one (possibly another) person manage it but I never got the trick to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Looking at the wiki, it would seem you need to be a bit ahead of the aoe since it's about the trajectory being low enough. It mentions jumping although I don't recall ever needing to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehipone.6812 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I used to have this problem too - you need to stand in front of where it shows that the keg will land. After a couple of tries you'll get the hang of it. No need to jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenleto.6179 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Well then, first thing in the morning I’m going to have my first try at it in three years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonyeti.3296 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I have never done this on any character, I try a few times, give up and go kill the wurms in the cave to finish the heart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loosmaster.8263 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 You're better off trying to revive the passed out Warriors than doing that unless there is a title or achieve attached to it, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoreChief.8391 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Tried standing in front of the AoE, and it doesn't work. I think its just a broken system that ANet has no intention on fixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff.5312 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 It's difficult to be in the right spot, but I've done it in the past. Frankly given the difficulty I found it a lot more efficient to complete the heart by dousing sleeping Norn. But it did definitely work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @Biff.5312 says, it's a lot easier to throw water on the drunk Norn ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackson.9126 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Necro because this is still broken. No way to catch the barrels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatihso.7258 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) I've managed to catch some after the dx11 implementation and I was shocked as it was unexpected. It does not work all the time but keep trying it with dx11 client and stand a little front or back of circle.
