Guild Wars 2

We have tried to do Guild Treks with our partner guild for several weeks now and only a single one out of about 6 or 7 tries did not have a bug that prevented it from being completed. For the bugged attempts, the glowing circle for one or more of the target locations would simply not show up where it should normally be.

We did make sure we’re at exactly the right spot when this happened by guesting to a different server. When doing this, we could see the glowing circle on the guest server, but as long as it’s not the home server, the circles can’t be interacted with, so guesting can’t be used to work around this bug, merely to make sure one is at the right spot where the circle is supposed to be and that this is indeed a bug, not a user error.

Since Guild Treks don’t award personal rewards and commendations like the other mission types, this bug harms exactly those small guilds that have not managed to accumulate enough influence so far to unlock all mission types and that still need merits (since big guilds probably don’t bother with doing Guild Treks). And exactly these already disadvantaged small guilds are forced to waste some of their valuable influence on Treks that are too bugged to work.

If this bug was rarer and would happen in maybe one out of ten tries, we could deal with it, but as it is, it’s absolutely not worth the effort because it’s a rare thing that a Guild Trek is -not- bugged.

Could you please look into this and enable us to do this guild mission type again? We – and probably other small guilds as well – would be very thankful if this bug could be fixed.
