Ascalonian Catacombs achievement
The bug is that the one shown to be missing isn’t the one you need. I suspect that it varies depending on the account or that “1” is always shown to be missing, even if it’s 2 or 3 (or maybe even story).
Anyhow, devs are aware of the issue. There’s no ETA for the fix, so the options are:
- Wait for a fix
- Go through all the other paths besides 1 (in your case: just 3 and story now).
Sorry that there aren’t any better solutions out there.

I don’t thank you for your non helpful input, as you are not a mod or GM (This dates me a tad, sorry, a “Dev”). If you had bothered to read my post you would know I’ve already researched the issue and stated exactly what you said, and in response to that: I’ve tried all the paths today and had no success in getting Path 1 checked off.
Wait for a fix? This appears to span back some time now, how much longer do I have to wait for a fix? How many more years do I need to wait for to fix the Asura jumping puzzle? What about Shatterer spawning multiple break bars before the fight begins thus excluding everyone out of the achievement chest? That was reported weeks ago and that revamp is practically brand new. I realize that’s bordering off topic but the topic at hand are bugs.
Also those questions are completely rhetorical since once again, you are neither a developer or mod.
Then again. Anet may not reply. At least someone did. Fine, thank you for trying.

Not sure why you think being rude to me is going to help you resolve the issue any sooner.

I read your post and it wasn’t clear to me that you ran every path after encountering the issue — that worked for everyone else I’ve read about here (and yes, offered the same advice).

Yes, it’s an old bug and no one is going to be able to say “how much longer” until they are nearly ready to release a fix. If you want to keep track, it’s listed at the manually curated Known Issue Tracker
- “Achievements: Dungeon Achievements have text mismatched to dungeon paths completed”
- Status: Verifying = “[ANet thinks they] have a fix and are testing it to make sure it works.”
That suggests it will happen sooner rather than later. (Of course, we’ve seen them be that close before for other long-term issues and then they’ve had to go back to square one.)

I can see that you’re frustrated. I’m not sure why you think listing other bugs is going to help get this one resolved more quickly.
What about Shatterer spawning multiple break bars before the fight begins thus excluding everyone out of the achievement chest? That was reported weeks ago and that revamp is practically brand new. I realize that’s bordering off topic but the topic at hand are bugs.
“bordering off topic?” it’s entirely off-topic — this post is about a achievement text mismatch for dungeons, not about a break bar, nor a fight, nor an event.
Also those questions are completely rhetorical since once again, you are neither a developer or mod.
If you only want a response from an ANet employee, then create a support ticket. These are public forums available to anyone with an account.
I’m sorry that you’re frustrated. I’m sorry that my advice isn’t helpful to you. I am not, however, sorry that I attempted to help someone who posted here.

If you want an official response, create a support ticket. And I’d urge you to do so, since you seem convinced that you are reporting a new bug, of which ANet is not yet aware.
Players, including myself, are going to help others troubleshoot and resolve issues in the/bugs forum, since it’s rare for a dev to respond. If you don’t want a player response, don’t post here.
PS The bug hasn’t existed for a year, so it’s potential solution could not have either. The path mismatch bug was introduced when HoT launced — prior to that, you couldn’t even see which paths you had done. Similarly, there’s no way to know how long the potential fix has been in “verification mode” since the Known Issue Track was first announced around a month ago.
Anyhow, I’m sorry that whatever is going on is blocking your achievement and I hope it gets resolved soon one way or another.

Once again, attempting to help myself. Please refrain from responding as your solicitation is not wanted here and was not wanted from YOU from the start. I’ve already reported this as a ticket as per my “Since this is documented…” and will thank you to once again move along before I can’t help myself any longer and this becomes ugly.
I finally got the achievement for path 1 after THREE completions through the entire dungeon- story to P3 – just FYI for anyone else experiencing this problem in the future. And yes I’m staying for all the cut scenes.

I’m glad you finally got credit.
(And in the future, I hope that if you don’t want the public to reply you’ll remember to avoid posting in a public forum.)
