Guild Wars 2

The NPC “Senior Agent Bodd” and his companions never appear, meaning that the event can never be started. Normally a player must speak to Bodd in order to start the first in the chain of events, but he seems to not exist.

He and his friends should be standing right where my character is looking, but in my entire history of playing this game, I have never seen Bodd, not even once. I’ve only seen videos and screenshots of this event.

I’ve seen the event three times in the past month (once for each time I was doing map completion in Malchor’s Leap). You’re probably just catching it when the event is on cooldown.
