Guild Wars 2

Today I noticed random pieces of siege disappearing from CD BL. Inner lords, outter walls, behind gates…random places in random keeps and towers. The siege timers were not expired and the siege was not taken out by enemies.

This issue started after beta cannons were implemented. Has anyone else had this problem?

In the past I’ve had it where siege I recently complete disappears maybe 1minute or even seconds after its built. In return a wooden chest spawns where the former piece of siege used to be.

The most wtf time was when at Ql on ebg we were defending against an enemy group…..i spend time running supply up to the wall to build a superior a/c. I finally get it done. I fire it a bit then run down to get more supply since the enemy had moved off to resupplt and come back from the camp. I’m walking back up the stairs of ql and suddenly my a/c disappears and a wooden chest appears. And I walk over and the enemy is now back to siegin the tower…..and we have no a/c lol.

I’m pretty sure its the game’s countermeasure for preventing crashes or any larger issues. If a piece of siege becomes bugged or unstable in some way….its deleted and a wooden chest is given as recompense. It doesn’t happen often but I think thats how it was designed.

It could be that, possible on a larger scale, or it might have been another bug of some kind. You’d have to ask the people who supplied the siege whether or not they got a wooden chest once it disappeared (the chest might not automatically open and go into their inventory, they might have to actually go to the siege to pick it up)

Every piece of siege belonged to me. No chests. Very odd.

Oh hey, if you are the PUGS that were on CDBL today, we had fun fighting you.

Does the cannons still have no cap? Because if they dont they probably just overflow the list, ie old siege gets removed when new cannons are placed rather than not being able to drop new siege.

I’m not sure on the cannon cap, but I don’t think that was the problem. There were maybe 30 total pieces of siege on the BL and it was random in the order of the siege that poofed.

I will test the cannon cap theory tomorrow.
