Guild Wars 2

ty Anet….. Foulbear and Commissar seem to always be broken a day or two days after reset. You tell me that I need to hit there to try for the accessories to complete my collection. WTF…..for the past 6 months prior to this release…at the best of times Foulbear would work or fail and we would have to wait for a reset. Commissar was stable back than…and wouldn’t break. We always complained about Foulbear breaking, yet you decide that we need [SAM} to help complete Treasure Hunter, and The Manifesto. Do you wish us to spend our hard earned gold to help stable your out of control market?, or are you just too lazy to fix Foulbear which is unstable and prefer to ignore and move on?…..Fix Commissar as well.

steps of his soapbox
best regards

which one is foulbear? i personally don’t understand why they would put old items in a collection of that magnitude.. people wanting something new in their home instance really shouldn’t have to go through that sort of rng.. and there were new soulbound items in the quest, so it really makes me question the decision to do so.. not to mention the arah item.. actually i can go on for awhile about how horrible this collection was implemented so i’ll just digress right here..
is the commissar event really broken? or is it that people aren’t doing the chain correctly.. because it’s not straightforward like hirathi ulgoth, you have to backtrack and make sure the map stays clear.. which is furthermore bad for people trying to get a token drop from the champ because they might miss it

Foulbear is the one called Ogre Wars in Fields of Ruin. it’s been broken on and off since launch and a-net never tried to fix it. there are many things that does not make any sense at all in collections but at least make those events work properly. rng for them already horrible…

the Commissar never broke, and yes, before Megaserver…it was reliable…I would start the pre-events and get the guild kicking up….but nowdays, you can’t even start the events, two days after reset

Yep. I don’t get why Anet insists on linking things to unstable events. They did it with the trait unlocks too.

It’s terrible decision making.

How do the people who design these things not know these events bug frequently. If they do know, how can they think it’s fun to have to wait for reset to attempt something.

I guess what I am saying is ANET….fix up the old broken events before you indite us to complete a collection for rewards that always seems to be broken….it’s your place, your game…make it happen

The chain that leads to the commissar would break periodically too. It wasn’t as bad as Ogre Wars (or the year or so it took for Anet to get the Shadow Behemoth to spawn reliably), but it was one of the buggier world bosses.

my point is back to the main topic….treasure hunter…..do I buy because Anet refuses to fix the Events so I can complete my Collections…nice play ANET….(events that where always known to break)

I believe the only solution is to change your account name to TheOger in solidarity with Foulbear’s misspelled gate in Fields of Ruin.
