Guild Wars 2

I was fighting the Wyvern Patriarch when i saw in my chat that I was inactive and no longer going to receive participation in the event. I don’t know how this happened when I was gliding to avoid being damaged and to grab an egg. This happened in an earlier event where I was doing a quick clearing of inventory so i can grab loot while defending the pact rally point. If the inactivity timer really is only 30 seconds, then I would like to disagree with that rule in defense of trying to inventory.

While doing shield phase, you are considered as inactive.

So what about the matriarch and this new example which also includes tendril bug.

Yeah, it seems to be bugged recently. Last weekend, I was part of a group that killed the Champion Avatar of Balthazar HP in Auric Basin and, shortly after grabbing the HP, I get the message “Due to inactivity, you are no longer participating in the event”. Well, he is dead and I got the event participation/completion reward; how can I “participate” when there is no event?

Lol yeah, it has happened to me a lot. I just finish doing an event, get credit and stuff and seconds later.. “you are no longer participating in the event”. Well,, yes because it is “over” :P

Hi,

I still get this kind of bug a lot. But sadly, not only after the event completion : yesterday, I was participating in a event in Tangled Depths, and I was transformed into a Nuhoch (so, hard to find I was not participating to the event) guiding young beetles, when I got the message “Due to inactivity…”. I mean, really ? How can I have this message in the middle of a transformation related to an event ?

It seems that there is a very small delay during which, if we are not fighting any mob related to the event, we get ejected. Problem is, some event implies to escort some NPC, or collect items, or whatever, and sometimes there is no mob to fight during several minutes…

This bug is very frustrating. Worst, yesterday I was participating to the event “Lure the beetles near mushrooms to calm them by releasing spores from nodule”, and there were a lot of players, so I was hard to interact with the few beetles, but I did, I interacted with them and the spores. And at the end of the event, no credit, no message “due to inactivity”, nothing, the event just disappeared, as if I had not participated at all… And so, the success for participating to all events in the outpost was fail. Like that, without reason. Very frustrating to participate to events that are sometimes very repetitive or long, just to have nothing in the end…
