So, I think this is a bug, so I’ll put it here. I don’t see another thread, but mod please merge if there is.

The Lost Coins that we collect in Dry Top for the associated achievement seem to be bugged in that if you are in the process of collecting one and are interrupted, the coin simply disappears. It is not counted as a coin collected, and does not respawn on the map. It is simply gone, which halts your ability to finish the achievement.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

^ Ran into this issue myself. I’m at 29/30 and I’ve been to each of the 30 coins (i marked + listed them to make sure i didn’t miss any).

I’m somewhere between 10 and 15 at the moment, but I know exactly which one I glitched on (interrupted myself and then it was just gone). I hadn’t considered it a big deal until someone pointed out that there are only 30 on the map.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the reports. The way these are set up, you should be able to leave the map and come back and the coins should be back. Please let me know if that is not the case and we will investigate further.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

That interupting bug happened to me yesterday. Leaving the map or relogging etc. does not help. The one coin is still missing and I walked to all coin places several times (+ guides)

Now I’m stuck at 29/30

I thought I was going to go crazy! I’ve collected all 30 coins (I’ve triple checked every spot) but only have credit for 29. I’ll try leaving and re-entering and checking again and post if this did or didn’t seem to fix the issue.

EDIT: Found the one I thought I was missing! It was the middle scaffold in the mining town.

Hey guys,
I did some more digging and credit towards finding the coin should happen instantly upon interaction, not upon completion of the skill charge bar. This means that you should not have to worry about losing or missing credit for coins by being interrupted.

I know you guys are saying you’re going to all the locations and using guides but perhaps a few are being particularly evasive for you?

I’m stuck at 29/30. Gone through Dulfy’s video guide once and couldn’t find my missing 1. Guess I’ll go through it again in case I missed something.

edit:: FOUND IT!!!! Oh Inquest I knew you were evil, but hiding the last coin from me…. It just got personal. lol.

So I did check, the coin that glitched for me isn’t there (second one along the wall up to the vista by the Sparring Rock PoI). I may have miscounted, but I’ll go through and find the rest and see if I can get my 30/30. Probably won’t be til this weekend though.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

I have literally gone through using a guide to check all 30 locations. I did it with my guild as a group. I visited all 30 locations, there are no coins present at any location, and I am at 29/30.

Facing the same issue. I’ve got 29 of 30 and have gone through the Dulfy guide 3 times and once through with my guild and nothing. I watched someone in my guild get at least 1 coin on each spot and I did not get my last one. Doing it a 4th time….

Hi, I have the same issue. I followed dulfy’s guide and have backtracked every single one while comparing to dulfy’s video to reconfirm the coin location.

I’m stuck at 29/30.

I spent several hours wondering around once I had hit 29/30, gave up, and used Dulfy’s guide. I re-went to all 30 locations without any luck (Standing on the exact location in each of the 30 instances), as well as re-went to several of the frequently missed ones with Guild mates (Which the guide had already covered)

I’m still on 29 / 30. I have all Season 2 Story Achievements completed, and Dry Top Regional fully completed, aside from this one. I would also be happy if my coin progress was completely reset so that I could make a note of the missing one.

One of the coins was collected on an alt 80 who had not completed the Season 2 story, and I do play with +- 400ms ping at all times (Locational thing), so one of these factors may contribute to the bug.

Did you guys get the one in the Inquest lab? That’s the one I missed from before. If you follow Dulfy’s video, it’s #30. When I did it the first time I didn’t realized I had to cross the quicksand river and go through that sun gate. My mistake was to go through the easier sun gate found nothing there.
So, make sure you get the details right if following the video.

Went into the inquest lab – Tried to go through the exit portal – Jumped up from the “coin” platform to a little gap at the top, got to the Legendary Llama a second time, ran around checking that area for 10 more minutes till I was kicked out since the event re-started (It was the last one in the video – I had nothing else to do)

If this hasn’t been fixed by Saturday, I’ll post screenshots of myself at all 30 locations to prove the coin is not there…

Yep – I have the same issue. 29/30 coins and following dulfy, I have been to every location 3 times now. Have done 15 screenshots – will do the rest tonight.

Update: Coming back into it after 24 hours. I started to get the rest of the screenshots. Coin 2 (dulfy) was there, where it should be.

TL;DR – If a coin is missing entering a different instance or re-entering seems to be the cure XD

Hit 29/30 last night. Spent 3-4 hours using guides to check and double check and triple check and quadruple check all the coin spots and I’m still missing one. So no, I don’t think one is being “particularly evasive.”

The interrupt bug is still active, happened to me about 15 min ago. I know the exact coin it was as well. Dropped down, started to pick up and was interrupted by a devourer. Coin disappeared and never got credit.

Edit – It’s coin 15 on Dulfy’s guide that didn’t count

A ha! Fixed!

Whilst going on my screenshot loop, I got the 30th coin.

To those experiencing the missing coin bug, do the following:

1.) Go to Lions Arch
2.) Close Guild Wars 2
2.b.) Wait a day (Optional – The instance has to “vanish”)
3.) Re-open, and re-log back into Guild Wars 2
4.) Go back to Dry Top
5.) Re-go to all 30 locations

The coin wont “refresh” if you simply log out in the region – You need to log out in a different region, then re-enter a different Dry Top to the one you originally entered (You can use the /ip command to find out which Dry Top you are entering)

Good luck to you all, and happy hunting

A little suggestion I’d like to see getting implemented, which will help players in this achievement here now for sure and also for all upcoming similar collection achievements that we might see in the future..

Why could you Anet not count up all of the collection items in the achievement screen and hide their “number” of the collection with a question mark, up uuntil the player has found a collection item.

Once you found one, then the achievement screen will show you, which actuall number of the collection you found with that item.
This way a player can easily check, which collection items of the maximum amount of collection items they have already found, and which numbers of the collection are still missing to complete the collection.

Example: I’m a fresh new player, which as not collected any coin yet, then you’d see in the fittign achievement panel to the Coin Collection the following thing.

30x ?, so

?
?
?
?
?
?
?
and so on …

Now I go on the search and find a coin and suddenly I could see, which number of the collection I just have found there.

?
?
3
?
?
?
ect. …

A very simple checking method for collections.
So if you run up all 30 places and you are dead sure, that you collected all 30 and the achievement panel still shows you then 1 ? left together with the Achievement showing you 29/30, then you as a player have at least instantly A CLUE, which coin exactly is missing and that makes it also easier for the devs to find a fix for the problem, when you could clearly see, which collection item number creates the problem…

PS. it also enables to compare the situation with other,s to see if everyone is missing the exactly same coin…

Personally I like the idea behind sub classes ~ quoted from Chris Whiteside

A quick solution to change servers is to guest on another server. This worked for me and I finally got my last coin. Good luck.

I’ve had the same problem. I’ve checked all 30 places multiple times, and there are no coins anywhere. I know I’ve interrupted a certain coin, the one with the devourers right next to it. I’ve tried relogging, guesting, changing map, etcetera, but the coin is still not back. I’d really like to get the achievement, so a fix would be good!

EDIT: I fail, missed one just lying there, hiding in plain sight.

Don’t waste a ticket, it’ll take too long since it’s not a “urgent” case. Try to do what someone said a couple post above you. Move out of the map. guest to different server or wait a day to “reset”, go on a different character (can’t hurt), and try again. YOu’ll get there.

Pop this up. I had the same issue where when I was collecting the last coin while fighting skritts. I did not get credit for that one. The specific coin is #5 on dulfy. I checked my achivement panel before reaching out to that coin and was pretty sure I had 29/30. After that one it is still 29/30 and I revisited all coin locations with no luck.

I have the same problem, already bugged it
29/30 and I redid the tour of 30 coins, so 1 is bugged.

I did notice 1 that didn’t make the “sound” that you normally hear because I moved my character.

Oh and other maps don’t work, and waiting a day either

I know several people who got 30/30 yesterday, after the most recent patches.

I know it’s tedious, but my recommendation is to revisit every coin location to make sure you got credit for it. Ideally, take a screen shot at each location. This does two things:

  • It forces you to be systematic about both reaching the site and verifying it.
  • If it turns out there is a bug, the 30 screens can be sent to support, giving the QA team the type of evidence they need to troubleshoot.

Good luck!

Awesome — glad to hear.

BTW: it seems pretty common that people think they found all the shinies in a scavenger hunt, but then it turns out they missed one. That happened to me (and several folks I know) with Diving, a lot of people with the basic crystals during last year’s and this year’s Zephyrite fests, and last chapter’s coin chasing. That doesn’t mean that stuff doesn’t bug out sometimes, but if/when it happens to me, I’m going to assume user error first.
