Dredge fractal last night, ice elemental version. After I think one or two pulls, the lava buckets stopped showing their animation for my entire party. At first we thought it was completely screwed and wasn’t dumping the lava at all, til one of the group suggested we pull the elemental over to one anyway and see if it was just an animation issue, which proved to be true. I recorded a few times to demonstrate.

I have posted this in the dungeon forum as well and other people are also experiencing this bug. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/Dredge-Fractal-bug-buckets-missing-animation

Retired. Too many casuals.

I can confirm this as well. Both the animation, the lava and the sound are missing. It was very confusing. Because I usually wait for the sound of the bucket, before I run to the next spot where we want to pull the boss.

same happened 2 times out of 2 ._.
Poor fractals.they get worse each patch.

GW2 balance:
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

Doesn’t matter. As long as PvP is fixed and balanced, everyone is fine.

Again to confirm the point I had this happen during a level 18 fractal today.

At first it was confusing but I normally check the duration of the condition that it puts on him anyway ^^ I find that’s the best way to do it just to be sure I’ve hit the boss.

Happened yesterday to me as well. I thought I was just lagging, but I guess it’s more common than just me.

The first bucket was just fine. Every bucket afterwards had no sound and no animation, but the boss was affected normally. I was operating the buckets.

As of today, the steam in the aetherblade jumping puzzle is suddenly invisible as well, and so are the flames! And not just to me, to other players as well.
