Guild Wars 2

This is a game-breaking bug!

Note: Occured on EU/German server

The LWS2 story is stuck at “Plan of Attack”, which leads you into the Iron Marches, because the event (killing Bria) is currently undoable!

The Bria event is 100% bugged. (For attachments, check second reply.)

Two Shadow Fiends remain which are invulnerable to attacks. You can bring Bria down to 1% health, but she refuses to die. She just stands in front of her mansion and nothing happens. Her two remaining Shadow Fiends don’t attack, either.

P.S. People who need this event for certain legendary collections are screwed, too.

Yes, absolutely. Please fix this bug.

20 hours later, and the situation is still the same (see screenshots), so the server reset did nothing to solve this.

Ergo I cannot proceed with my story. What is going on??

You should submit that to CS in a ticket. (Though, uh, how did you determine a server reset happened? Usually that’s just at patch time, and I don’t recall a patch yesterday?)

The Bria’s event in Iron Marches is always bugged, preventing the collection of the third and final part of the Crown necessary to proceed to the last part fo “The Dragon’s Reach, Part 1”.

The event is “Kill Bria’s Shadow Fiends to rescue the cubsbefore she captures them”, and it’s always struck with Bria in front of her house, unable to be killed (if she reaches 0% hp she enter in death shroud and fear everyone who hit her), and 2 of her shadow fiends under the Determined buff on the back of the house; no cubs around, and the event says 2/6 cubs saved and 2 shadow fiends remains.

Not only that, but it seems there’s only one map active for Iron Marches, making the event bugged for everyone, and nobody able to complete “The Dragon’s Reach, Part 1”.

Fix this soon please

It would be nice to get an answer from someone in charge about this since this is around for like 3 days and the event is still in the exact same position. We tried to get to another instance but this map is empty.

Arg this is frustrating. Not able to continue with personal story because of this.

I confirm, same bug, which totally breaks progress. Reported in-game, going to play something else for now.

Me too. Have a few nice detective games waiting to be played.

I can confirm it too. Bug is still there and i too can not proceed with the story.

The event don’t even reset with daily, we can only hope for a fix from Anet

Still bugged, same way as mentioned before. Bria’s behaving normal. You need to kill the 2 Shadow fiends to continue this event. But these 2 are invulnerable/determined.
Cant find another map to continue my LS2. Hate it because i spend quite some real money for it to buy all the episodes.

@amysnu: me too …

If you want to get an answer to a question about the game, you need to submit a support ticket. While anet developers do read, and even occasionally comment on, the forums, they are mostly just about player to player support.

hm , i just did the event right now , and it dont was buggd or so

New IP for Iron Marches map, finally…..the bugged event seems gone for now

Yes, the event is not bugged anymore.

According to this thread the bug is back. A permanent fix would be nice.

I did it the other day no issue. On blackgate server. Try guesting to another server.

This generally doesn’t work anymore since the Megaserver system was put in place; you need to have either a map reset or close out (e.g. like a server/game update or forced map closure due to a decreased player population).

Usually, what some players have known to do for issues like this is use the LFG tool to ask for a ferry to “clean” or unbugged map. But still – this bug should be fixed.

The event gets stuck when Bria’s shadow fiends chase after the cubs. It seems to get stuck on the last cub. Either the cub doesn’t spawn or it doesn’t register getting captured. Regardless, the event is impossible to complete, which also means that progress in the season 2 living story is impossible as well.

This bug also blocks progress on the Nevermore III collection. I’ve submitted an in-game bug report as well as reporting here.

…and it’s back again!

Bugged as of 6/17 4pm EST. Unable to move on with LWS2. Please fix this!

This is blocking progress on Nevermore III collection.
Map instance IP: 64.25.38.241
Event stalled at 5/6 cubs saved.

Dailies just ticked over, still bugged

Yes, it never resets by itself on server reset. A dev must reset it manually or a new map instance must be opened.

This has been going on for too long, a couple of weeks already. It’s about time someone permanently fixes this event.

Well it would be nice, since you know it’s broken, if you would change “Plan of attack” so we can progress in our story journal until you all can get a permanent fix. I paid cash money for Living World season 2 & now I’m stuck because of this. Not cool!

Gaile Gray.6029:

Thank you for all the details that you’ve provided in your reports. This level of detail will be helpful in allowing QA to thoroughly review what’s going on which in turn would ensure that the devs can implement a correction.

It looks like this thread is closed & the problem still exists. I checked on the “Issue Tracker” & there’s nothing showing there. I guess I’ll put in a ticket

Bugged again. Spent hours with several other people and nothing ever happens. Says Cubs saved 5 of 6, Shades remaining 1, but it’s not true. We’ve been scouting everywhere and it’s just missing gone and so nobody can progross.
I need this for my Nevermore Staff, collecting ravens.

That’s pretty weird, i just played through LWS2 yesterday and didn’t have any issues as I quickly entered Iron Marches at the nearest waypoint, grabbed the stone (event wasn’t going on in that instance nor stalled), and ran… apparently you need some timing luck before that event is fixed if it is still broken.

This is still bugging out , she’s making no attempt to move into the house and is just standing there invulnerable and fearing anyone attacking her.

I paid good money for the living story season 2 and now can progress no further. To say I’m annoyed is an understatement.
I submitted a ticket about this issue 12 hours (ish) ago and am still waiting. Has anyone any ideas of how I can progress with living story 2 or do I have to wait for her to be reset?

The event is still bugged. On it to send a ticket also, please let me know if it worked for any of you so I can do LS2.

I am sorry to hear that.

I did that particular part of LWS2 about a week ago and got lucky. But it stinks that you can only get this done when you happen to land on a map where the event hasn’t bugged out. It’s been a long time, I wonder why this cannot be fixed.

Yes no idea.. I quickly checked the bug reports site and nothing is there about this event.. I sent a ticket and all, hope we get and answer soon. I’ll keep you posted

UPDATE 31/8: Event works fine now! A friend logged in and was able to progress his LW2 story and I just logged in, did the event without any problems and progressed too. Let’s hope it continues to work
