What does this actually do?

Just tested it and it doesn’t allow me to activate the consumable in the buff panel.

Anyone can interact with the bounty target, challenge/puzzle icon etc.

Editing this for clarity:
IT DOES NOT LET YOU ACTIVATE THE CONSUMABLE

No, it doesn’t. See the original post.

I guess no one else knows what this actually does either?
Shame, hopefully we get guild improvements next feature pack and this is addressed.

Mission Control DOES mean you can activate the consumable; those in my guild whose ranks allow for Mission Control are able to use them. Are you the leader of your guild, or are you of a rank specifically designated by a leader that allows Mission Control?

We tested this. We could not activate the consumable without “activate built upgrades”.

I will repeat:
it does NOT allow the use of the guild mission consumable.

start them? Interacting with icons for puzzles for example? Anyone can do this, so long as they are in the guild with the mission active.

Activating the consumable, it does not allow.
I suspect I am going to have to produce screenshots with the button disabled before people get the message – it doesnt work.

Hopefully this will stop the “It lets you activate the consumable” nonsense.

Have you tried making it so you are able to Activate Built Upgrades? I’m not sure if that’d affect it or not, but those of us who are able to use the mission consumables also are allowed to Activate Built Upgrades.

I think the key is here we don’t mind someone having permission to activate guild mission upgrades (which is what mission control should do).

But not have someone able to activate any upgrade (eg world boss spawns).

It seems like it is meant to allow someone to activate guild missions but unfortunatly seems a tad broken.

May be time for a good old bug forum post instead.

sorry this is the guild worldboss activator.. (was really late when i posted this, sorry for double posting but the next post explains mission control)

Mission control upgrade is the activator to start world boss events outside of their ‘normal’ spawn time
It currently only works for the Karka queen, Tripple trouble and Tequatl the Sunless world boss events.

To use it, go to the guild mission activators located near these world bosses (spot on the ground) and stand in it. While you stand in it, click on the activator in the guild upgrades and if conditions are met, the world event boss battle will start.

Conditions:
1 you need to have guild mission activation privileges in the guild
2 the world events does not have a timed/(scheduled) start in the next hour (60 min)

Tip, for Karka queen you can already do the pre events (capture the 4 camps) before you use the summon. If you hold all 4 camps while you summon, you immediately summon the karkaqueen herself. (else you start the timer for the pre events and queen comes out when all camps are held, and if you fail to do that before timer runs out, no boss is summoned).

Hope this clears it up, so unlike the other guild missions you can only use them from the guild upgrade list while you actually stand on the activator of the event you want to start (only the 3 mentioned world bosses) to clarify, you can not use them to start other guild missions like challenges or rushes.

Goodluck

guild mission control :

Guild members with this permission can start the actual guild mission at the activator in the world as well as the consumable for it, however as is shown by Artemis Thuras, It is pretty much bugged all the time.

First of all, you can not activate guild mission activators from the build upgrades with it.
2nd everyone in the guild can interact with the activator on the map after the consumable has been used to start the actual guild mission/challange/puzzle.

The few times that it did do anything, this permission was required to be able to start the actual guild event at the world interact point. The reason behind this would be that you can actually activate your guild Rush, Challange and puzzle a few hours before you actually plan to run them (so everyone knows where they will be this time and have time to get to the required locations.

Since this permission does not work, EVERY guild member can just interact with the point on the world map and start the event. Therefore its about impossible to activate the event activators in advance since 9 out of 10 times some member will just start the guild mission as soon as they get to the activator, without all the other members there. This results in almost all the members missing the event and having to activate a new one (which is again random).

so yea currently it does not do anything (bugged for at least 6 months + now)

To start guild missions (Rush, puzzle and Challange) you need to click on the activator first in the list with build guild upgrades.
