Guild Wars 2

Some of us would like to finish our map completion.. when is this getting fixed Arena Net ?

While the cannon fires.. it does not shoot pass the wall.

I haven’t seen this bug, I’ve done it a few times. Please try a few times if still a bug then report it with the bug submit client.

When did you do it?

Just did this last week on a new toon…..please detail the issue (and if it IS a bug, reporting it here is unlikely to get any action….report in game and in the Bug forum).

Note that the particular challenge does NOT give you any feedback on progress…..you just have to hit targets until it triggers (I’m guessing 5 to 6 direct hits?).

A month or two ago for myself, for the latest time.
Grimm is correct with the lack of notification, just need to eye ball the targets and hit them, I don’t see a problem with that though.

You should try to join on me (via account name) .. and come on to my map.. the cannons wont fire pass the wall at all.. so you can’t really see the cannon balls fly to hit the targets.. everyone on map is complaining about it being bugged.

I noticed this over the weekend as well. Thought I was going crazy!

I’ll take a look at it later when I get out of class.

It’s in this list.. if you search for “cannon” via ctrl + f

As I said, when I get out of my programming class I’ll go take a look.

There is feedback on that skill point.

There are 3 flags on the rampart of the fort you are firing from that change to a “blue thumbs up” when you hit a target.

Only need to hit 3 targets.

I have no problems with it, are you just pressing and releasing the fire skill? You need to hold it down longer to fire further.

This kittening point is bug u can go check if u want

It’s a bug that lots of people are having. It doesn’t matter how long you hold down the fire key, the cannonball always explodes the instant it leaves the cannon. There’s a 70+ post thread below this one of people who are having map completion blocked by this. The bug seems to have appeared with the recent major patch.

No matter if it was working before or not, ATM it IS bugged.

Was that really necessary?

The wife and I just finish Bloodtide Coast with a few characters over the weekend and had no problems.

Now, I did just log in and tried it out and will agree that it is bugged.

I was also pointing out the in-game feedback that no one seems to know about. There are 3 red thumbs down plaques that turn into blue thumbs up with each successful hit.

You don’t see me going crazy on the forums because the guardian shout, “Save Yourselves,” isn’t working properly (not applying to allies). I calmly submitted a bug report and since it was Sunday, I know it will be around 1100 to 1300 my time on Monday before anyone at ANet will see it.

I would like to confirm that it is indeed bugged as others have said.
No matter how long or at what angle it will not fire over the wall.
I’ll pass this along in a report.

Bump, plz fix it

This bug affects a lot of things besides the one skill point (including the maze in the thaumanova reactor fractal). ANet is working on fixing the root cause, so that all of the issues get resolved together, instead of just a band-aid on the skill point. Even work-arounds require planning, development, and testing resources, so imo, it’s better that we wait for the generalized solution, even though it’s really annoying.

i dont know how they can bugged their games like that o_o ? XD
