@Blocki.4931 said:I've participated in over 15 full metas and I received exactly nothing. What am I doing wrong? Where are my stupid boxes.

It looks like you participated in a meta that's not eligible for this event. What meta was it?

Choya Pinata (I was collecting coins + participated at the kill) got nothing yesterdayForged Hounds (I now know that this wasn't eligible, but didn't at the time of the previous post). Many people do this event expecting to get one, was a bit of a let down!And the Doppelganger fight after the Augury Rock meta didn't give me anything either.

Today I did Serpent's Ire multiple times and received rewards. Pinata also gave me boxes. I guess it didn't count my participation towards the event for some reason yesterday, but it seems to have resolved itself.

I don’t think the HoT maps were included from what I’ve heard (and likewise didn’t get extra boxes from AB metas). I am surprised Silverwastes is included; I was getting the impression it might be strictly PoF and Orr events*. It would be nice if it specified in the description — or did I miss something in the thread? It’s nice that it shows you where to go, but it seems to always show the same locations in Orr whether anything is currently happening or not? I am really not familiar with how the Orr temple events work.

*EDIT: Events in both Dragon Stand and Tangled Depths ARE included. Sorry for the misinformation!

I’m going to look for a train to take part in PoF meta events tonight. The reward boxes are nice! :)

Yeah it just show everything... it should have been like the world boss one, having a star telling the current event. About temples it's a real mess, you don't know when they start or not, it must be updated with a clear schedule, I hate waiting all day for event especially one also needed for commander banner item.

@Stalkingwolf.6035 said:i know weird problem, but i think its too much going on.
  • new Map
  • Mount
  • new Legendary
  • Event Weeki'm overwhelmed

Would have to disagree. Some of these are meant as short time events and others longer. This is a good pace and is drawing some people back in since they are seeing new content. Keep it up.

I disagree with your disagreement, so there :p

I put a ton of hours into this game on a regular basis and I am also frequently overwhelmed with how much there is to do. I don't think having all these things going on at once is bad for the game and I don't think anet should adjust how they develop their game based on my individual preferences. But I did want to point out that the quoted poster isn't necessarily an outlier, there are plenty of ppl who prefer a slower pace . . .

If you leave the map open on 'Show Me', it will show every eligible event. It's not a "what's currently up" guide; just a "show me all the places where eligible events can occur".You can find all the eligible events (and a timer for some) here: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Meta-Event_Rush

Good luck.

Thx for the precision, but yeah dragon strand is in it, and got 0 event rewards for it. Instead of hmm 4 reward boxes.

Thank you for the clarification and the link! I do prefer how the WB event showed you what was coming up next and also just by “world boss” you knew what was and what was not part of the event. I am glad for these events and grateful for the loot box upgrade, but so far my one critique would be not having any clear area or theme (that I can see anyway) to what events are and are not included.

I was really hoping that it would get more people to do the dragon stand meta so I can finally finish up hope. Right now I have to get a small handful of crystalline ore per day since I can't find an active map, and there's no other sources of it.

I spent 6 hours looking for a DS map today, and couldn't find a single one.

I think this may be caused by faster other events for this meta event week. Theres also still a fair share doing Dragonfall meta it seems. The problem I usually have with Dragonstand is that I do find a squad but the map is always full (even when one organises before map reset and meta start). I like the way that Dragonfall handles map is way better as it does reset and close but if you are organising on map you can just play the meta no problem without getting stuck in a full thingy.

@Chris Cleary.8017 said:We're aware of the Arah based Defend events not giving Bonus Event Credit (both for the community goal and personal credit). I'm working on a fix now, I'll update when I have more info.

Edit: This should now be fixed

Any clue about others issues? It happen for lots of people not getting the boxes rewards from Dragons Stand. Myself included.

Was having fun until the 'maws of torment' meta bugged out and we couldn't finish it, wasting heaps of people's time. Demolitionist Folke gets stuck under the terrain and doesn't move, timer runs out, fail.

I'd never done this meta before, was a really great experience to find new bugs I didn't know about.

Happens nearly every time for me and it's getting real old here as well.

I think I saw someone else here recently mention that it has something to do with making sure the south lane escort succeeds to keep the event from bugging? I got into a successful run on it last night, so it clearly doesn't bug out all the time.

The south escort gets stuck under the ground and doesn't walk any further, he even keeps talking as if everything is normal. All enemies cleared, nothing you can do to make sure it succeeds. The bug is the south lane escort.

All you can do is praise Joko and hope it doesn't bug out.

Very very sad that you didn't include Ogre Wars and Eye of Zhaitan events in that rush. Those are kinda Meta events, repeatable. People do those events for Treasure Hunter collection. Yet, those eligible events were left out. So does Commisar in Dredgehaunt Cliffs.
