On the second path when you’re defending maggs whilst he tries to blow up the wall, most groups just skip the event and jump over the wall. Guessing Anet knows about this but is it going to get fixed any time soon or, doubtful, is it even remotely ok to do?

It’s next to impossible to find a group doing it without jumping over the wall. I was hoping some groups would at least be looking to do the other paths but no, nobody is interested. When i asked about them i got told they were buggy and that’t all anyone has said. I didn’t start CoF until the other night so never got to do this before it was buffed… But on the few occasions a team has actually agreed to do it… We squad wiped several times in a row, eventually the group just gave up and once again, jumped over the wall. From what I’ve read, most people seem annoyed at that part of the dungeon being buffed anyway instead of things like the final boss.

I guess I’m just going to leave it for now and play some other game until the dungeon is fixed since I don’t want to get banned. It’s frustrating though, was starting to get bored of completing maps and WvW I can only play for an hour or two before I want to do something else. The personal story I found to be uninteresting until later levels and overly easy the whole way through. Things like fighting Blightghast I just stood there and shot arrows from the side, nothing attacked me at all and some irritating npc repeated the same lines over and over again for the entire fight every few seconds. That’s not really something you can enjoy/lose yourself in. Thought I’d focus on lvl 80 gear since I actually like the dungeons but I can’t even do that now since this is the only dungeon left that I want gear from. Tokens are allocated to a specific dungeons gear so I can’t try all of them and their different paths out and still get rewarded with anything useful at the end of it, don’t really want 8 different sets of tokens filling up my bank either. I’ve been wanting to play with one of my friends and help him get his TA gear so I’ve been doing runs of Twilight Arbor to end up with hundreds of tokens that i’ll never use… So basically being deterred from playing with friends. Groups running dungeons tend to get annoyed at first timers in them too and it’s hard to convince anyone to do the explorable paths for fun/change if the gear they want isn’t in those particular dungeons. I can’t do dungeon runs for future characters either since the tokens are soulbound and I’m not yet ready to level another up to 80 and do all the map areas I’ve already done again. It’s just a bit annoying. I don’t really know what to do end game besides a couple of hours pvp/wvw every now and then.

Ah, thanks for that. Much bigger incentive to play just from that one change.
