Guild Wars 2

I have not received the “Recon Demolitionist” Achievement from the “Caithe’s Reconnaissance Squad” mission. I have mined all of the corpses in the level, even went back to double check. Possible Bug/Issue..

Mined all of them once, no achievement, relogged, mined them all again, still no achievement. Do we have to explode them all as well? Or is the achievement now awarded at the end of the instance?

Did you both complete the story?

I mined them all, and I completed the episode: all 4 chapters…and nothing.

You mined them before or after you completed the current episode? I’m asking because you need to complete the entire episode first in order to do the achievements. This issue came up recently with someone else which is why I’m asking.

I mined them before I completed it.

The achievements only activate after completing the whole Episode.

It seems a little buggy at the moment. I managed to get it by solely mining the corpses without exploding all of them (It unlocked for me as soon as I mined the final corpse, without even completing having to complete the instance). So I assume one doesn’t need to explode them in order for it to count towards the achievement.

Indeed, you only need to mine them, as it says in the achievement.

I mined them all, but I didn’t know I had to complete the entire episode, then go back to get the achievement.

It’s the same with every other living story release. Achievements are not unlocked until you have completed the chapter. Once you’ve completed the chapter you can go back and replay the missions in any order you want in order to complete the achievements.
