Guild Wars 2

Ive been wanting to do the “Help the Priory’s excavation of the ruins” heart in Timberline Falls but the closeby event "Protect krewe leader Dobbs as the krewe clears the excavation site " is up for 3 days now and isnt completing.

please reset the event so ppl can complete the heart nearby.

Thanks in advance

When the event is up and frozen, there are no risen to kill to increase the heart, and there are no golems to assist.

While the event is frozen, due to waves not appearing typically, your only options to complete the heart are to attempt to drop items into the box (the items disappear while equipped at times), or kill one of two tiny groups of Skelk right on the edge of heart range. It’s doable, but incredibly time consuming.

This has been bugged since launch. It takes awhile for the event to “collide” and break the heart after each server restart, but once it does its busted until the next one. I reported it shortly after launch, and I thought I detailed it pretty thoroughly, but I guess they didn’t bother to read or fix it. It IS completable, its just incredibly frustrating because there are no enemies, no golems, and weapons randomly disappear from your hands, and even if you do manage to turn in a weapon, it gives a pitiful credit towards completion.

I have /bug this twice since launch. It is almost always broken.

Same, /bug it each time, with lots of details, but sadly seeing this, it didn’t do any good.

I didn’t realize this was a bug until recently when another of my characters showed up and there were actually golems there. My main had managed the quest by putting all the little artifacts in the box since that there were no golems or anything else around to help get the heart. The artifacts give around 2% or so toward completion, which makes it very slow and painful to do. If there are a lot of people trying to do it (as there was with my main), it becomes even longer.

Yes, this has been my experience, too (Jade Quarry).
I don’t think I’ve ever seen it actually work properly I sent in a bug report last week or so, too.

ah yes i remember this bug clearly now. running around trying to pick up those items and drop them into the box due to that bugged event. this bug was reported months ago and is still unfixed. makes the event a blast. those items are so rare and disappear so frequently that it took me AGES to do with other people running around doing it to. please fix this. if you cant figure the bug out then remove the event so it doesnt screw up the renown quest

The bugged event wouldn’t be as big of an issue with the heart if it wasn’t for the horrible design of the items. WHY do they disappear?! Even while in your hands. Nothing more annoying that having an item disappear just as you get close or having it disappear from your hands just as you reach the box.

It is only marginally tolerable if you are the only person around and you can camp the spawn of an item that is next to a box.

Same issue here (henge of denravi) no golems no artifacts nothing to kill to gain completion of the heart. The other event which your suppose to get completion from is bugged (Protect Krewe leader Dobbs) no mobs to protect him from.

What the hell is going on with this event/heart? its bugged since release and still is after over a year.
Come on guys. you cant expect us to wait for a server restart each time we want to do that quest.
At least tell us what’s the status with the fix.
ty.

Heh I have stopped reporting bugs like in Jan/Feb. I got bored with it. Sometimes I still report once every while but meh.
