Guild Wars 2

Our guild on Yak’s Bend ran the Guild Challenge – Blightwater Shatterstrike on Saturday 6/1 after the reset.

We noticed that when we started this up, the crystals that you have to target will not appear visually. The text will show up for the crystal but you have to stand in one or two specific spots for each crystal to damage it. When they get down to about 40% or 50% health, they will randomly pop up and be easier to damage.

Note that also when the crystals appeared randomly, players were then trapped inside of them until destroyed.

Another guild kicked it off right after us and all the crystals appeared correctly. My guess is the bug occurs when this specific Guild Challenge hasn’t been launched since a new build, or has not been launched in a while. Hard to say since that was the first time we ran that one.

We were able to complete it successfully, but other guilds may have some issues with targeting them if they do not appear.

This does certainly sound like a large problem. The guild I’m in was hardly able to complete it when they were fully visible [at least they were for me] and a vent server. Do you know if anyone else in your guild was having the same problem? I’m going to guess they were because people were getting stuck.

Well we had about 50 members out there using Mumble and several with commander tags. When anyone found a spot to damage the crystals, we had a commander stand there and say “Commander [insert name here] on spot to damage crystal”.

We did this with one crystal at a time, some had cannons while others cleared the area and defended the people with charrzookas. Got every crystal down to about 10%, split up, killed them all at the same time. Had 7 minutes to spare.

Just to update, Guild Mission bugs should be posted here instead of the “Guild Missions” subforum. They need to update their sticky post that says “Anything to do with guild missions is fair game here”

Same happening to me and my guild over the last days.
Got 2 times the Blightwater Shatterstrike Guild Challenge Mission, and both times crystals were invisibile and cannot be hit. Results? Mission Failed, two times.

I, and also some guildies, sent in game Bug-Report during that mission, also with istant screenshots. I really hope you will fix it :s
I’m not caring about influence lost or whatever, but now when you start a Guild Challenge and you get Blightwater Shatterstrike, you know you’re going to fail. Sad
