Guild Wars 2

Since the last patch… all available map ips for Cursed Shores are bugged. The escort with Izzmek bugs and stalls in place. Izzmek is stuck near Gavbeorn and the meta cant be completed. This has happened in the past, but its kinda rare to see it stall on all map ips… so I wanted to report this in case its something that is normal now.

Another issue with this meta occurs more frequently. In the last 2 years or so, the events run into trouble whenever the UI displays “The pact is preparing to attack the Temple of Melandru”… it never works when this message is showing. I’m not sure why it occurs, but its a problem my daily temple zerg runs into once in awhile and is always bugged when that UI message is showing. This UI message can appear after a temple fail or even after a new ip is opened… there never seems to be certain reason why this appears at all. When the camp of Gavbeorn is uncontested and the meta is ready to get started, it either shows “preparing” or “building up strength” in the UI info… “preparing” is when its bugged and “building up strength” is when its working properly. If anything, the “preparing” UI should just be removed if possible because the event stalls at Gavbeorn and bugs whenever it shows up.

I know it may seem a bit complicated and weird, but this has been a problem for a long time. My zerg can normally find an ip with a working mel … but this should be addressed imo.
Here’s a link to a post from two years ago about this issue: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Melandru-events-bugged-on-NSP-server/2088295

This meta event is still bugging a lot, even after an Orr daily was put up today. All the Cursed Shores map ips have Izzmek stuck at Gavbeorn atm.

I have been checking on this event for 3 days now, at least 5 times a day at different times of day. I am quite irritated because it is one of 2 pieces of the legendary collection Meteorlogicus.

Is there any expected fix Anet???? >.<

This event is still bugging, preventing many people from getting their precursor collection items.

It seems that after the temple has been cleansed on a new map, it will bug and Izzmek will not path to first beacon the next time assault comes up.

As Balthazar Almighty noted there has been a different bug to contend with in the past regarding this meta event. However, this new bug seems to have replaced it now.

This really needs to be looked into for the sake of players that need this event chain for their legendaries, and for the general needs of the people that still play in cursed shore and enjoy the meta events there.

The event is still bugged. This is preventing people from getting their legendary collection finished. It’s a major problem for those people. I see them all the time in cursed shore and it’s terrible to inform them the event is still bugged.

Can we please get a reply, is someone checking into this?

event is still bugged and we are waiting for last piece legendary collection I. Any news or fix from Anet?

It’s also needed for the first Juggernaut collection. Which is kinda irritating because I’ve had everything else plus the mats needed to craft the first step for a week now. Just can’t progress.

yea but you can catch this place “not contested” sometimes. I done that just a moment.

That’s when you get a fresh map where it hasn’t had time to get bugged yet (the problem seems to occur after the first time the event chain is completed). Problem is, unless you can round up 50+ people for a map jump you can’t force this, and 99 times out of 100 you get dropped into an existing, bugged map :P.

This bug is still active and needs to be addressed by Anet…

Even though new maps are opening frequently with the Orr daily today… on older map ips the temple events are stalled at Gavbeorn most of the time. When the daily is moved from Orr to another region… its going to be one ip, if not two, that will be up all day and they will most likely be bugged.

Magister Izzmek is still stuck at Gavbeorn for all existing ips… is this Temple of Melandru bug ever going to be fixed?

Oh oh, i was going to post it, but you already did 20 days ago!!
Anet, please?

Still waiting for a dev to at least acknowledge this issue. Over 20 days now trying to contend with this new bug, it’s blocking legendary collection for too many people.

It’s time to mend some ties with the player base, it’s badly needed at this point. Please, let us know this is being investigated and that it matters to you.

Just bumping because this bug is pretty severe for all the people wanting those legendaries.

Such a pain I don’t know what they’re prepping but they need to get it done.

Sigh. I did not realize that this bug was so prevalent! I’m so frustrated since I only need the temple for my precursor quest! Can this be investigated and fixed please! (or give as an alternative in the meantime)

Cursed Shore events were bugged for years.. I wouldn’t expect this stuff to get fixed any time soon..
Try camping for this event after a maintenance or something.. would be your best bet..

This doesn’t seem to be as reliable as it used to be

Fortunately, devs have acknowledged the issue and are working on a (new) fix. (Alas, there’s no date given yet.

Good day! I wanted to give you all some confirmation that a further fix is being looked at and tested. I apologize that I cannot give a date for when we hope to push the fix out, and thank you guys for your continued patience while we work this out. Thank you as well for the continued reports!
