Guild Wars 2

When i tried to take one of the coins in Dry top i was interrupted by devourer. The coin is lost and i didnt get any achi. Now im 29/30, i double checked all locations following dulfy guide and didnt find any i havent found already.

Am i going to have that achi unfinished forever or what?

Oh, I thought it was just me!

I had this issue last night as well. My husband and I went after a coin, he grabbed it and moved on. I started grabbing it, then interrupted myself. The coin disappeared like I got it, but I have no credit for it. I was hoping it would eventually respawn…but it hadn’t before I went to bed. Figured I’d check tonight. I guess I’ll just throw in a support ticket instead.

Maybe the Devourer snatched it…

Seriously though, please report as bug in-game or under Game Bugs section. Probably going to save a lot of people the hassle.

This sounds very familiar. Wasn’t this an issue back with the krait obelisks to where players who were interrupted during interaction (manually or by an enemy) were forever stuck with that achievement incomplete by being one obelisk short?

Back then ANet said they did internal testing to try to reproduce the issue, but despite plenty of feedback from players on the matter and the situations when they encountered the issue, they said that they could not reproduce it and left it at that.

And though there were many, many reports of it being an issue, nothing was done about advancing the achievement for players who encountered the issue. The chapter ended and the achievement went away…leaving many disgruntled players.

With these achievements not going away after two weeks (the regional achievements aren’t going away, are they?), perhaps this one will finally lead to it being resolved so it won’t happen again with future releases that have achievements requiring players to interact with single interaction objects around enemies.

Perhaps make the object register as being counted immediately upon interaction, instead of at the end of the interaction animation and have the object not disappear until it is actually registered as being counted.

Uh oh, I did this to myself earlier, didn’t actually check if the coin counted towards the track, will have to make sure later.

Aha! I thought it was just me. I followed dulfy’s guide to get the last few and now have 29/30. I even have taken identical screenshots to dulfy’s to show there is no coin there. 30 screenshots of “no coins” and 29/30 coins gathered

There’s a dev post stating that the collection triggers for each coin upon initially touching it. This has been my experience; I interrupted all 30 of my coins (I hate waiting around if I don’t have to) and I’ve got my achievement. Are you 100% certain you’re not missing one coin somewhere?

Same here stuck at 29/30.

Do you have the one from the inquest cave. I was at 29/30 and that was the one I was missing.
