Guild Wars 2

This problem has been happening to me all Wintersday season long with the 10% Karma & Experience banners placed from the guild panel. As soon as I change maps or go to character select, the banner vanishes. I have had other guild members present who watched the banner vanish with my character. It is not a matter of getting a different map when I return, the Ip address(es) remained the same every time (64.25.38.241:0).

So, how do I get my guild banners to stick around so that other people can benefit from them?

It’s a long known issue. No idea if it is intended, or a bug that the cause has not been found yet.

Only thing you can do is stay in the map…for now.

Good luck.

I noticed this since the beginning of Wintersday, but mainly because that’s when I started placing banners for the karma boost. Apparently its a known issue from like 6 months ago so don’t know if there is going to be a fix for it anytime soon. What I also noticed is that your banner will not disappear as long as you stay in the map, even past its intended spawn time. I was there for about 4-5 hours the other day to test it and the banner never disappeared.

Anet, are you EVER going to fix the banner issues? So many wasted.
