I’ve completed the ooze font more than 5 times, all of them without getting in contact with the flames, sometimes carrying mysefl an ooze, others killing a few elementals.
And still no achievement. Happened to more friends, too.
Any idea? What’s going on?
yeah i would like a statement about this because it is same for me
It takes only one tick of damage to lose the achievement. Maybe you didn’t notice it.
I too would like to say I have not got this achivement. Tried it on multiple characters, since I thought my pet might be counting and stopping me from getting it, but Ele, thief, and gaurd all tried with different parties that all got the achievement except me. It is the last one I need to finish this god awful dungeon. Please can we get a response or fix or somthing.
When I got this achievement I did not get hit by ANYTHING that caused burning. When I say anything I mean both the flames on the ground, and the Lava Elementals’ attacks. It may be that that when the achievement says “Complete the ooze font puzzle without getting hit by flames.” it also means the flames the Elementals attack you with. I was kiting the ooze rather than dealing with the Elementals, btw.
Elementals aren’t related. Its just the flames.
One of my l2p challenged guildies couldn’t get it, (Im not implying that you guys are doing it wrong, just saying he was a lost cause) so we had him touch the pheromone, run back out till it wore off, then we just 4 manned it and he got credit. Kind of cheesing it, but if you have done it legit and still haven’t gotten credit it might be worth a shot.
Are you a Ranger? I’ve heard reports that there may be a bug where if your pet gets hit by the fire, you lose the achievement. (Dumb, I know.)
It’s possible to be in the fire pit, but not actually take a tick of damage. This can happen if you do something like rocket boot across the fire, or roll through the edge of it. The debuff momentarily appears, then disappears, but you don’t take any damage. I’m not sure if this can cause you to fail the achievement or not, but if so then it’s possible to fail the achievement without taking any burning damage from the fire.
