I did the 3rd route of explorer mode CoF with some guildies and a random. It was hard, well at least for us. We finished it and killed the final boss (see screenshot). Though for neither of us we got the completion confirmed in the game (the popup and xp 5 extra tokens). Also i did not get the achievement for completing all 3 routes of CoF (done the 2 others earlier). Can you please fix this for me and my party members? Also please fix this possible reoccuring bug for future players.

I already made an ingame report of this bug as well.

Thanks in advance.

thanks much. I’m aware of this bug happening, and have made some changes to the event that /should/ be in this Monday’s patch to ensure it is fixed. I say should because there’s a chance it might be in next Monday’s patch. Naturally I would rather it be sooner than later.

Thanks for the fast reply. Will this mean that me and my buddies will get the achievement for doing this now (since its a known bug)? I would much appreciate it since we spent a few hours in there.

There’s no way I can give you the achievement, sadly. You’ll have to run it again when it is fixed.

That’s kind of sadly indeed. You are encouraging players to do the full runs and not just the CoF speedruns (like it was able before, don’t know if that is still possible these days) and when players do those other runs it’s basically; ‘Ah well, it’s a known bug but we can not do anything for you’. How is that encouraging all of us to do other runs besides the formentioned speedruns? I do understand that bugs happen and needs to be fixed, but it’s kind of discouraging to tell us we are exploiters for doing the CoF 2nd route speedfarm and when we do the other routes (like intended) we basically don’t really get rewarded for doing so.

I’m sorry if this comes across as whining. That’s not what my post is intended to be. Just expressing my tiny frustrations and hope Arenanet will take such concerns (if you will) into consideration.

+1 on above – Instead of focusing your attention on taking care of these bugs Arenanet simply make other routes harder for no reason what so ever, and then stamps those running these routes as exploiters which is in my honest opinion bulls**t.
It would’ve perhaps been OK if these changes were first of all written in the already lacking patch notes AND that all these silly bugs were taken care of, there is a reason other MMO’s have public test realms. -_-
