You should indicate your server in case it’s only happening on yours? It’ll help them track it down better.

Are any events active in the area? When the investigation completes, it immediately starts the totem event. I’m trying to find out exacly where it got stuck. (And I don’t have GM commands on the Live servers, so I can’t check the servers listed above.)

It’s been stuck on the “The grawl are worshipping a dragon totem! It must be destroyed!” part for days now. Scholar Brogan is just standing near the destroyed totem and there is a wind tunnel swirling around. It’s been exactly like that for days and it will not progress to the part where the Svanir chief guy would normally run out.

The event to collect the wyrm eggs and I believe collecting the armour so the kid can build snowmen both still run. Sorry but I don’t know what they are called off hand.

Alright, so I was doing the Frozen Maw event earlier and after the successful completion of escorting Scholar Brogun to the place where the dragon totem should spawn, nothing happens. The escort event completed successfully, and other events in the area seem to be working, but nothing is happening with the Maw. Brogun just stands there, and the little box still says ‘Scholar Brogun is headed to the Maw to investigate the grawl.’

This is on the Sorrow’s Furnace server.

The Frozen Maw Dynamic event chain is stuck with Scholar Brogun standing next to the Dragon totem again. this is the second or third time since the patch that removed the wintersday events. He just stands there and no matter what we do including killing him and rezing him work. I am on Ferguson’s Crossing.

For 3 Days now, the Frozen Maw meta-event is completely stalled. Scholar Brogun is standing in front of the dragon totem, in good health, and there are no nearby grawl, ice elementals, or shaman interacting with him in any way. The event “Collect armor scraps and bring them to Rani so he can build a snowman army to scare the grawl” is also hung up, since the same grawl seem to run both event strings. The entire maw string is not happening since Brogan is not returning to the lodge. So everything from protecting Tor the Tall’s supplies, to killing eh shaman chief simply doesnt start. Rani’s snow army has been built, but the grawl who usually comes by and animates then and dispatches them to attack the lodge never shows up either. My server is Sorrow’s Furnace.

Still stuck in Borliss @ “Scholar Brogun is headed to the Maw to investigate the grawl”. So it’s before the totem event. The totem is visible + intact and Brogun is standing in front of it.

I switched to Maguuma server and it was stuck in the same way. It’s as if a programming change was made and the event barfs in the same spot on each server.

Well I looked for a topic like this one before I posted mine and it did not show up. >.< Anyway Ferguson’s Crossing is having the same problem with Scholar Brogun standing at the totem willing to talk to us but wont tell us to break the totem. It froze like this right before the January 10th patch but ofc the server reset fixed him for a few days. Also I do not know if this is related but the Snow Norn Army quest refused to start until this morning. The one right next to the Maw where Rani asks for tattered armor scraps.

Scholar Brogan has been stuck standing in front of the dragon totem ‘investigating the grawl’ for over a week on Magumma.

The Totem is still there, but there are no grawl, no icebrood, no anything nearby.

Also collect the armor scraps so Rani can build the snow norn army hasn’t been triggering either…

I see the problem with the event “The Frozen Maw” on Ferguson’s Crossing has been mentioned two days ago. This is a reminder that the problemn still persists. The message to the event reads “Scholar Brogun is headed to the Maw to investigate the grawl”. He is standing in front of the totem and you can interact with him but he does not continue with the event.

The continued failure of this set of events, coupled with some of the posts I’ve read from my fellow game-players and a fertile imagination, are causing more than a little concern that Maw even when it gets fixed will not be the Maw we all know and love. Searching for remarks about this breakdown, I’ve seen some remarks about the reward being too much for such a low level area. Even some complaints about the number of level 80 players that frequent Wayfarer’s for these rewards. I hope, that you guys don’t nerf this event, my guild-mates and I love to meet up for it when dailies reset, and its one of the things we can all group up on, because it is fairly short duration, so its not hard to get 5 people to commit to coming along. I hope that the duration of the outage is not an indication of it’s importance to you guys, and simply that you are combining its fix with the new content that is about to emerge.

adding my two cents for it being stuck in the same place for several days on IoJ.

it would be really nice if we could get some answers on this. it’s one of the most beloved events in this game. arenanet has always cared about about the happiness of the players, and the lack of communication on this is making me very concerned that they might start trending the other direction.

Maguuma, and here’s how it goes because I do this event every single day and when it bugs out on this one it also bugs another nearby event because they’re tied together (Rani’s Armor collection event).

So since those two events are connected, this is the series of events that follow and sometimes they happen at different times, and sometimes they happen in the correct order: (note, I don’t know what part is supposed to be tied to each…)
1. Level 15 elementals attack Vendrake’s Homestead
2. Someone kills them.
3. unknown messenger brings message to Krennak’s Homestead that Grawl attacked Vendrake’s Homestead.
4. Dialog begins for Grawl attack on Vendrake’s Homestead thus beginning the actual meta event The Frozen Maw.
5. players beat back grawl and prevent them from taking all the boxes.
6. Brogan begins his player initiated part and starts walking to the Maw killing grawl along the way.
7. He stands in front of the totem and spouts his line about destroying it and the grawl being ‘our problem’.
8a. * bug. the totem looks destroyed but it never actually spawned the totem to be destroyed in the first place.
8b. If not bugged you destroy the totem with waves of grawl and elementals that attack.
9. the Shaman comes, brogan tells you not to let him call his friends – shaman is invincible.
10. shaman guards and portals show up spawning friends the longer they all stay active and alive.
11a. You died and elementals and icebrood are all over the lake area.
11aa. 14 minutes(?) are up and the Shaman has summoned the elemental.
11b. You won and now the Shaman is now actively trying to kill you.
13a. you’ve killed the Shaman.
13b. you’ve got the Shaman down to half health but haven’t prevented him from summoning his second form (elemental) – thus making him easier to kill if you’re a caster and harder if you’re melee.
14. You win and Brogan rez’s and walks back to Vendrake’s Homestead really really slowly.

Now, because it’s tied to the Krennak’s Homestead event, it also bugs that one and doesn’t allow progression many times – sometimes it does…
1. elementals attack – starting The Frozen Maw.
2. – real start of Vendrake’s Homestead event – Hunting party at the lodge proceeds to go to the Grawl ‘cave’ to hunt some. Vendrake should not be crippled but he usually is as his cripple spell has 1 hour affect.
3. Hunting party gets there kills a few, a dozen spawn and Vendrake uses his ‘smash the ground’ knockback skill and says “There’s too many!” and cripples away to his homestead.
4. He goes and lies down, his wife tends to him, and Rani starts talking.
5. Rani leaves the lodge and starts the collection event.
6. After collecting enough (12? for one player) he runs back to the front of the lodge and sets up snowmen.
7. a dozen Grawl come from the cave, check out the ‘norn army’ and run back to tell the shaman.
8. The shaman and another grawl come from the cave, tell Rani he’ll be the last to die, and summon the ‘snowmen’ alive into elementals (level 12).
9. Kill the Grawl Shamans part of the event comes up – kill 4 grawl shaman and all elementals will de-spawn – 1 outside, 3 inside.
10. After killing them, run to the lodge and Rani and his dad are talking about him being brave or something and Rani will remark to you about your help.

All of that was based on personal observation of events and dialog at both locations.

To add to the list of bugged events on Maguuma:
The Frozen Maw.
Rani’s Armor collection
Mead Delivery Twinspur Haven to Edenvar’s Homestead.
Dredge Ore Mining heart in Molebria near Edenvar’s Homestead.

On Piken Square the maw event has been broken for a week. Rani’s armor event is stuck too.
Scholar Brogun walks to the dragon totem but never starts the dialog to destroy it.
All of our clan have reported this in game several times.
Is there a better way to get someone’s attention and fix these issues?
I really like gw2 but these bugs are showing up more and more and stay broken for a long time. It detracts from an otherwise stellar game.

Fergusons Crossing server….been stuck with “Scholar Brogun investigating the maw” and him standing next to the totem and doing nothing for over a week now….it makes no sense that an event that is down on all or almost all servers should be down for this long….shouldnt be that hard to fix….I do not understand the lack of fixes or at least an official reply for why a meta event would be allowed to be broken for this long….very negligent on the companies side to just leave us in the dark…makes it look like they dont care….

thank you for your response, I have sent few in game bug reports about this over the past week with no response at all so at least hearing something back is helpful…I understand testing and reproducing for issues, but the bottom line is that for the past week and as of less than 30 seconds ago on Fergusons Crossing when I logged in, scholar brogun is still frozen there next to the totem as he has been for many days and the event is just plain stuck…

Indeed, this is day 8 where he has been bugged on Ruins of Surmia, every time i check on one of my characters at least once a day, i just see him standing there in front of the totem, stuck on the part where he heads to the maw to investigate the grawl. But it is always nice to know our message has got through to somewhere.

So the start of the Frozen Maw is when the elementals attack Vendrake’s Homestead, it could be bugging out at that part of the event. I’ve seen it starting again before the maw is actually over. This is easy to figure out, if you get close to Vendrake’s and you see elementals dying in front of the door, it means it’s trying to start The Frozen Maw again.

Would love if Jeffrey would tell me for sure what the trigger event is for both the maw and the collection event, this would help me debug it better and also what part is connected between them.

I believe it is trying to start the Frozen Maw a second time while it is still in progress, stalling it at the stage before you destroy the totem.

I have always wondered what the cause to the bug might be, i heard a few times its caused when some player tries to aggro extra mobs to brogun (those random sons of svanir scattred about between the homestead and the totem location) to attack brogun, which then apparently i was told the svanirs reset and brogun’s AI so im told wants to attack them but cant, though i do not really beleive this is the case, and merely something to do with other nearby events currently in action aswell, though i may be wrong there aswell.

I wouldn’t look for reasons like that. There are many, many events and event chains broken. It seems that there is a basic design fault and when the events glitch, as they are almost bound to do, they stay glitched until a server restart.
