Nameless Event?

I was searching through the event names when I noticed that one event did not have a name. It’s id is 6BD7C8B0-2605-4819-9AE6-EF2849098090. Is there a reason why this event is nameless in the API?

This bug is now fixed. The event is now labeled ‘Defeat Rhendak the Crazed.’

You should be able to match your event id with the name from there:

That’s where I found the id in the first place. I’m asking because the event is listed as this: {"id":“6BD7C8B0-2605-4819-9AE6-EF2849098090”,“name”:""},

Oh indeed, sorry I didn’t check that. It seems to be the only event with no name.

I assume it’s a bug that needs to be reported!

My guess is that it is a Southsun event. You’ll notice the crossed sword icons appearing every so often without any mouseover text.

The map_id for that event is reported as 32 (Diessa Plateau) though.

They should have a bugs thread at the top of this forum. Another bug:

OK, I talked to the designer in charge of that map, and she told me that it’s just a bug. It’s supposed to have text but doesn’t. I filed a bug for it to get text at some point in the future. It’ll probably take a while for it to be fixed since the text has to be written and go through localization and testing.

In case you were curious, the event is related to the Font of Rhand boss.

Thanks for the report!
