Guild Wars 2

I understand that you have to avoid all the Marionette’s attacks and have the warden event succeed on all platforms, but even when this happens I still don’t get the achievements. I don’t see the damage being counted and can’t find it referenced in the combat log, and the event succeeds, but I get nothing. I believe I should have at least gotten the Lightfoot and Short-Circuter.

If there is something I’m still missing, please tell me what it is so I can do it right. I firmly believe that I did earn these achievements, and there is something blocking me from getting them.

Edit: I have successfully evaded the attacks several times as well, received the “evade” message on the screen, and succeed at severing the chain.

Edit 2: Just got lightfooted. As far as I know I didn’t do anything differently so maybe it is fixed now.

I too feel there might be a bug. I’ve done the second Warden several times. We sever the chain and I avoid the kicks, but I still don’t have Marionette Sidestepper.

You don’t have to avoid the attack you have to actively evade the attack when it lands, and you only have to do it once, not every time

So you have to be standing in the attack, dodge, and get the evaded message. Then succeed the chain.

I have successfully evaded the attacks several times as well, and received the “evade” message on the screen.

That is exactly what I am saying.

Same as OP, I succesfully killed every champions and i did dodge scarlet’s attacks (and even remember being out of the orange circle) but I got none of the avoiding achievements. Please Anet fix these achievements

I have been able to get all the dodge achievements except the Marionette Short-Circuiter. I have done Warden 3 at least 5 times while dodging all of the attacks, twice I took no damage at all and still no achievement. I don’t know if there is something I am missing about that warden’s dodge achievement or if it is in fact bugged.

I haven’t had this problem, but for those that have, are you getting long-ish loading screens when you teleport?

It could be that you’re getting hit by it as you’re loading. Normally there’s a period of invulnerability when you load in (or there was), but I think it wears off before the loading screen disappears.

I have very quick loading screens.
I though this might have been fixed or something but nope. It is still very buggy. Not only did I not get credit for Muter, I also didn’t get the credit toward Deregulator. This is very frustrating. I actually really like this event, but when I’m doing my to dodge these attacks and everyone else worked their buns off to beat these wardens and NO CREDIT IS GIVEN…. I’m sorry this is just ridiculous. What is the point of these achievements if they are so buggy that you may or may not get them when you do it?

Dunno. I just did chain 3 and got short-circuit no problem.

I’m having the same problem with chains 4 and 5. I’ve completed both of them on several occasions, not getting hit by the marionette and all 5 arenas succeeding. My load times are only 2-3 seconds. I’ve tried staying out of the AoE entirely, and evading in it, no luck so far. About to give chain 4 attempt #5, I’m getting very frustrated. Chains 1/2/3 all went without a hitch. I should also note that I got chains 1 and 2 without so much as touching the telegraphs, so you apparently don’t need to actively evade the attack.

I’m also having trouble getting one of the last 2 chains to give me credit for killing the warden, but I’m not sure which of the 2 chains it is. Buggy as hell, hopefully we can get some light shed on this problem.

I have 3/5 on dodges achievement. Not only do you need to dodge all. But all 5 groups need to kill wardens and destroy generators to sever chain inorder for achievement to work.

The ‘marionette dismisser’ with the /cheer seems bugged. Have beaten marionette 5 times and cheer, but no achievement. skipped cutscene and everything. It should been a freebie for beating the marionette.

Yep I’ve had his also. But I’m fine with it as I only need one more daily and I’ve got my 11

I’m not worried about getting to 11. I just want the achievements to properly. It isn’t fair to not get credit.

Ok i was in the same boat as many of you, many times when i thought i did everything right when the chain was severed i did not get achievement. It seems to me the problem was that I was getting downed. Now, i cannot confirm this but I’m pretty sure getting downed takes away the achievement. After actively trying to not get downed I was able to get all of the achievements that were previously giving me trouble once I succeeded again

Hmmm. That is interesting. I will definitely look out for that. Thanks for letting me know!

Dodged successfully a number of times and have yet to get the achievement. Each time I finished I wonder why but after 5 times—it’s bugged. No Big deal now that I got to 11 in other areas. The only reason I am going to bother it get 1 more fragment bag to finish off the journals, then done with the Marionnette for good.

I’ve done warden 3 quite a few times trying to get Marionette Short-Circuiter and each time I did not get credit. I’ve dodged, I’ve avoided going down, I’ve had teams fail, I’ve killed it with success at all 5 platforms, I’ve went down from the warden but not gotten hit by the attack. I got three of them quite easy some actively avoiding and others just outright not even dodging them at all but just moving to the side. Now I may not need the achievements for the sprockets but it is just annoying to nearly always run into achievements like this every single living story patch.

Oh.. and to those saying they got it easy without issues. Just because you got it easy does not mean the bug is myth. Loads of people didn’t get things like the red ring of death from the 360 but the bug still existed. Using that as evidence that a bug doesn’t exist is just foolish.

This may help to explain the ins and outs of the achievements, many of which I have yet to get myself.

After watching it I cant help but feel they have made the sidestepper etc unnecessarily complicated to do. Yet another straw on this camels back.

After not getting hit and subsequently not getting the sword attack achievement, I believe it is also necessary to damage the boss enough to tag him. When the loading screen disappeared the warden was at 10% already.
