Guild Wars 2

With so many events bugging out frequently, are there any plans to implement some sort of reset on maps each day? For example, the Temple of Grenth event chain, at the south end of Cursed Shore, bugs out almost daily. It gets to the lightning cannon portion, the Footi NPC is absent, and the monsters just continually respawn, atracting farmers and bots in huge numbers.

Additionally, an automatic reset would help to alleviate problems with many other well-known bugged event chains.

If an automatic map reset isnt possible or in the works, would someone from ANet be willing to explain how they plan to address this issue?

Yes, this is a good idea, I haven’t been able to get into arah for almost a week now.

Excellent idea. Everything auto resets at midnight or 3 am or some such.

I recall someone suggested a Time Out after a quest/NPC has been idle/stuck after some time. When the time out is detected, the quest goes to the beginning stage.

This seems like an unnecessary temporary solution.
I’d much rather they just fix they bugs than tape them up with a quick fix that will just get broken when it hits the same point anyway.
Kinda like a waste of their time.

If they are holding back fixes (cough last “update” cough) they might as well reset all maps at midnight to help those who need it while they are busy coding the fixes.

At this point I would prefer a duct tape fix over having an event or dungeon be broken for 7 days.
