Guild Wars 2

with the achievement of collecting tooth’s on Sparkflyden (not sureabout oher maps)

i cannot interact with the tooth’s located on Sparkflyden
i was able to interact with the first one located near tequatl but after that i cannot interact with anymore
when i press ‘f’ to interact with them the progress bar randomly cuts off halfway through

same thing happened when i tried on different characters

im having problems with interacting with the tooth near forvar in sparkflyden. i found the tooth but it wont let me interact with it at all. so i’m now stuck at 9/10 teeth.

I am also not able to interact with the tooth that is underwater in Sparkfly Den. And, I am also stuck at 9/10. I have tried this on both the Mac Beta client as well as the Windows client.

Same. Cannot interact with some of these teeth in Sparkfly.
UPDATE: issue resolved (somehow). As has been suggested, perhaps the inability to interact has something to do with being in a state of combat.

Same story here cant interact with the underwater one in Sparkfly and stuck at 9/10

I am also having this problem. Tried this morning, hit all the teeth twice and it’s still stuck on 9/10. the water tooth not responding. Logged out, changed zones, still nothing.

I am also unable to interact with the underwater tooth, stuck 9/10. Tried relogging, guesting to different server, and even logging on different computers.

i have the same problem cant interact

Yup, same problem here with the underwater tooth. I’ve also had an issue with one of the scales in Frostgorge Sound, so that’s 2 achievements in this Living World release that can’t be completed if you get this bug…

Is it possible that the teeth cannot be interacted with if you are technically in combat?

In the case of the under water tooth in Sparkfly Fen, when I got the tooth under water I was sure to kill any creatures in the area as there was an issue of my going into combat near that under water tooth, though neither myself nor my pet was attacking anything and nothing was attacking us. Killing everything in the area caused me to not be marked as being in combat and I could interact with the tooth normally then.

Can you see if you are being marked as being in combat near that tooth and that this is preventing your interacting with it? Then removing any enemies in the area that may cause you to enter combat to see if this enables interaction again?

Same story here cant interact with the underwater one in Sparkfly and stuck at 9/10

any formal word on this from gw2 yet and how it is going to be resolved? can’t use other characters to get the tooth either.

Same problem. Killed everything I could kill, swam all around the rock, (even inside it!) and switched characters and got nothing. Finally broke down and submitted a bug report, and in the time it took me to write it up and send two people swam by and successfully interacted with the tooth.

Ok, tried it again last night seen as I was down in Sparkfly Fen anyway, and even after killing everything around the rock the tooth is on (including a couple of electric fish that had spawned right inside the rock) I still can’t interact with it. So unfortunately, that suggestion isn’t working for me either.

Just trying to find a common link between all who are experiencing this.

• Perhaps it has something to do with an effect of a rune, sigil or a piece of equipment you all have in common that is preventing interaction with the tooth.
  Could always try to remove a piece of armor/weapon/trinket/aquabreather one at a time to see if removing one allows you to interact with it and note here what item it was if one is found.

• Or, what class are all of you?
  Perhaps there is a chosen trait in common if all are of the same class that is causing a problem to where it is interrupting your attempt to interact, thus preventing credit for that tooth.

• I have no clue if it may help, but have any of you tried clearing your game cache and then seeing if you could interact with the tooth?

Clearing your game cache

1. Close your game completely.
2. Browse your My Computer to: C:\Users\YourComputerUserName
3. Then in the window menus, click on “Tools” then “Folder Options…”
4. In the window that pops up, click the “View” tab
5. Select to “Show hidden files, folders and drives” and click ‘OK’ (attached image)
6. You should now see a folder in your file listing called “AppData”, open this folder
7. Inside that folder open the “Local” folder
8. Inside that folder open the “Temp” folder
9. You should now see a folder called “gw2cache-{1501A8C1-6AA1-1601-C2A8-0115A16A0116}” or something similar. Delete this gw2cache folder.
10. Load up your game normally and see if the issue is fixed.

Thanks for the ideas, but to be honest, I’m not going to mess around like that just for a handful of achievement points I’ve already gotten the wings from doing dailies, so while the extra points would be nice, it’s hardly the end of the world

I can’t interact with the dragon scale that’s underwater in Frostgourge Sound. Tried on different characters and a different computer. I even did the event to save quaggans around and nothing happened.

It seems to not be associated with something on a specific character (armor, runes, sigils, traits, accessories, etc) as players have reported being unable to interact with that tooth on characters of different race, class and gender.

It also does not seem to be related to temporary game files or the local.dat file as players still cannot interact with it even on different computers.

One common setting independent of all of those variables may be the default interact key as being used by those affected.

• Have any of you tried to temporarily rebind your ‘Interact’ key from “f” to another key to see if you could then interact with it properly? I have mine bound to my “enter” key and have no alternate bound key and had no issues with any of the teeth. Or bind it to another key and back to “f” and also make sure you do not have an alternate key bound for interact so only one key is set to the “Interact” function.
