This has been complained numerous times before. I have reported these bugs in-game from time to time too. Let’s get started:

1. Temple of Melandru event chain

Problem:
The event breaks after certain happenings, sadly I have no idea what.

Cause and description:
The event description reads something like: The Pact is preparing for the attack on the Temple of Melandru – There is no such thing in the event chain (when running normally). The problem is, that it enters this non-existing stage of the event.

No Izzmek, no anything. I think it’s borken currently on ALL sevrers for 400 hours+.

Bonus bug#1: The Risen priest of Melandru doesn’t transform you after a few tries, just skips the transform phase.

Bonus bug#2: When you pick up the Diving goggles while transformed, you get your original skills back.

2. Gates of Arah event chain

Problem:
The event doesn’t start, it’s stuck in the escort Warmaster Chan phase.

Cause and description:
Not sure what’s causing it. Warmaster Chan may or may not spawn. Even if he spawns, he just stands there doing nothing at all – not starting the escort event. Also bugged on ALL servers. Usually breaks after 1-2 days of the update.

3. Temple of Dwayna event chain

Problem:
The event description reads “The seal on the olter must be broken!” – but there is no one to break it.

Cause and description:
After you escort the scholar to the altar you get to fight the Risen priestess of Dwayna. The scholar then may get aggrod, but he can’t die UNTIL the priestess is alive. But after the fight, remaining conditions and risen may kill him – and he can’t be ressed, so there is no NPC left to continue with the event.

Solution:
Add a determined buff to the scholar, OR let him die and make him revivable OR let him die and then you fail the event.

4. Temple of Lyssa event chain

Problem: The cannon event (pr requisite to the main event) cannot be triggered, as all NPCs are alive, but they are doing nothing.

Cause and description:
The NPCs are not repairing the cannon at all, just standing there. You cannot interact with them, and enemy mobs do not attack them.

I think this is caused by the unfortunate timing of the Pristess of Lyssa kill.
If you played these events, you know that the events tend to pop-up, and you have to do them in order to continue with the may event (well, at least you had to, if that wasn’t bugged too). If the cannon event pops up, and you fail it, there is a time (like half a minute) until the new event pops up in it’s place. I think if you defeat the priestess within that half minute, the bug occurs.

Bonus bug#1: Sometimes failing the defense events doesn’t do anything – the main event continues normally.

5. Risen priest of Balthazar event chain

Problem: Escort to Rally waypoint doesn’t start.

Cause and description:
Even tough it should start (other routes have not arrived) it does not. You can wait for hours and it won’t start. The other day we did Northern invasion 4 times in a row (and failing the last escort after) while central and southern started 0 times.

Would you guys at Anet please get these fixed? These are known bugs since launch and it seems nothing has been done about them.

Ps.: Could anyone do anything about the 20+ bots/Orr map too? (and don’t tell me to report them, I’ve been reporting one for over 6 months)

Which is a shame really, because apart from these temple events (which I really enjoy), there is no other reason to venture into Orr apart for nodes. At least Grenth seems OK.

For Dwayna on TC (it surprisingly seems to still be functioning, which is miraculous considering how long it’s been since the last reset) I find that the event most often gets stuck after the Historian event, and killing the Risen Priestess.

It seems like the majority of the time the event gets stuck, the status is at ‘Only Malchor the Sculptor can break the seal…’ and correspondingly, GW2stuff shows the event as on ‘Beat up Malchor’.

I have no idea what causes it, but Malchor seemingly just fails to spawn at Malchor’s Anguish once in a while, with no Historian, nor event risen mobs at the temple (just the risen patrolling the outskirts)

The bug(s) plaguing Lyssa seem inconsistent at best, made worse still by the fact that the temple is the least often done, aside from Balthazar. I often hear people proclaiming that the cannon event progress is stuck, and thus the seal is unbreakable. The temple will stall for days at a time, yet once in a while people seem to find a way to progress it.

I’ve seen Lyssa stalled for 150+ hours a few times, and suddenly completed and opened without a reset – often going right back into a seeming stuck state.

I’ve also seen the Arah chain stalled at “The pact is rallying to establish a forward base” with Warmaster Chan sitting in Meddler’s Summit, completely uninteractable, while GW2state shows ‘escort Warmaster Chan’.

Tarnished Coast Engineer and… general alt-o-holic.

For the toast!

Recently the only temple that has been broken/bugged/stuck/hosed on Tarnished Coast is the Temple of Melandru and it is just as described above.

This seems to a regular occurrence across the game that they fix it and over time it breaks. It’s like slow torture whereas you know that one, or more, of the temple chain events will certainly break and there is nothing they (Anet) seem to be able to do to keep it from derailing. Otherwise it’s a pretty dammed good game.

Yep, on reset I’m probably gonna do a quick Orr temple run, before everything breaks in 1-2 days…

ALso note: these are just the temple events mentioned, lots of other smaller events broken, but these are the main that need fixing. At most servers Orr is (ironically) dead because of these bugs (except for bots of course – they don’t mind).

According to rumors, aNet plans on fixing these for the next patch. For now, I suggest you guest to other server’s who do not have broken temples. Ie; ioJ’s Mel temple is not broken. Good luck.

I’d wish…

But after seeing these bugs weren’t fixed for the past 1,5 years I’m not holding my breath.

Well Bubi, when a Temple has something to do with a Living Story Event.. I bet we’ll see them fixed

I mean, as soon as the “Fractured” living story came out.. they ‘fixed’ Mossman.
