Guild Wars 2

-RESOLVED-

I have been playing and managed to complete the daily and get the chest, and then I decided I would get the living story daily for doing a torch run. I was really disappointed when I did one and I somehow did not get daily credit for it, but got credit for the one under the living story tab that counts multiple. I even ran a second one, but still did not get the daily. Is this because I completed the full daily before I got the torch run?

ANSWER: Only the garden torch run will give credit

I have a similar problem here. I completed the torch run achievement yesterday and now I can’t complete it for the daily.

For some reason only the garden (south of the Palace Waypoint) seems to give achievement (did all, garden as a the last).

The daily torch run achievement is mis-worded. You have to complete the torch run in the garden on the top floor (the one where you jump on the hedge things) – only that one counts for this daily.

There is multiple threads about this.

This is a failure in the UI.

Basically, the torch runs are all considered one in the same by players. However, ANet has made it so only one actually gives you credit for dailies.

Can you guess which one?

Well, the UI / achievement panel doesn’t state specifically which one it is, not do they have specific names, so players are forced to try them all, or assume its broken.

For many who don’t frequent the forums I can only imagine how confused they are. The answer is as others have stated, the only one that counts is the one in the middle of the map.

ANet could easily fix this by changing the text in the achievement panel, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.
