Issues with getting in dungeon instances
A group of 5 of us tried to get into sorrow’s embrace. All of us got into different instances. We were all on the same server, maguuma.
We all left the dungeon, left the group, logged onto alts, logged onto mains, then tried it again. The same person as before invited us into a party and entered the dungeon again.
Some people got a pop up, some did not. No one could enter the same instance. Some couldn’t enter at all.
We all left the dungeon, left the group, logged onto alts, logged onto mains, then tried it again. A different person invited us into a party and entered the dungeon.
Some of us got a pop up, no one could use it to enter the dungeon. We could walk into the portal to enter the dungeon, but no one ended up in the same instance. Some could not enter the dungeon at all.
A different group I was in tried this later. We had similar issues. Joining via popup wasn’t always available to everyone. Neither method worked, combinations of no entry or entry into solo instance.
Ascalonian Catacombs Story mode.
We tried both ways, by pop up and simply walking in.
A full party of 5
This, happenning in Sorrow’s Furnance since yesterday’s patch. (9/25/12)
[All party members landed in different instances each.]
Northern Shiverpeaks. Any dungeon explorable mode.
Half my guild [LooT] has the same problem.
Ascalonian Catacombs Story mode.
Can’t enter as party, relogging grants 1 entrance (when you are alone).
I am laughing so hard at Anet, the little PVE content they do have is not working. If the game had subscriptions, people would have quit a month after release.
Character: Arameraz
Dungeon: Arah story
Server: Seafarer’s rest
When I enter the portal it creates 2 instances. Always 1 for me so I appear there alone and all other party members get their own. I tried to log out and in and juggle characters, but when I came back and the announcement asked; "Do you wish to join your party in.. ". When I pressed “Yes” the announcement just disappeared and nothing happened. If I was lucky enough to get in, I appeared there alone.
Pretty frustrating because this happened to me more than once and seemed like no-one else had any problems with it.
Makes it hard to finish my storyline.
Ran into dungeon instance problems last night for AC Story Mode.
At first everyone in the group was getting an error message after clicking to enter with the popup(couldn’t connect to server or something along those lines). We then had one group member disband and go into the zone alone. We then invited him and the popup worked to let us in.
We got past the first named and one of the members had to go. So, I went outside to recruit one more while the rest of the group stayed inside. I invited a new member, stepped back into the zone, and was placed in a fresh instance with the new invite. Couldn’t get back to the other 3 in the original instance with the first named dead. Group ended up disbanding and we were all pretty disappointed.
Server: Jade Quarry
Dungeon: Crucible of Eternity (Story Mode)
Group of 5; All attempted to enter through walking and pop-up.
Problem: All 5 members of the group were unable to enter the same dungeon instance. Some could not enter at all, while others could enter but would be alone in their own instance. All 5 members of the group experienced both at different times. We attempted to log out, switch characters, log back in, as well restarting clients. We also tried rotations of each person “creating” an instance. This was to no avail. We also attempted to enter with one person having “created” an instance, then subsequently inviting each member. This also did not work.
Notes
Earlier 3 out of the 5 members (I am among the 3) were able to complete “Honor of the Waves” together with a method of entering the dungeon through walking into the portal manually after a single designated “party leader” had entered and then invited each member to the party one by one. It should be noted that for whatever reason, the party leader and I were able to somehow enter the same dungeon and then re-inviting other members once inside seemed to be a workaround. This method was not usable in Crucible of Eternity.
Hello, we are trying to enter the Citadel of Flame with my guild party.
- We have the chance to enter and we have bot choise, Explorable, and replay story mode.
-We tried via the pop up and through walking inside the istance.
-when we enter the first time we find ourself in different istance
-when we try to enter again we cannot simply enter anymore.
-we logged out, changed pg, logged again with the right character and then we can again enter. but again we where in different istances.
people have been posting for days and haven’t seen one reply, they seem to be more interested in messing with dungeon loot than letting us in the dungeon in the first place.
I agree with Jow. I amkittentired of this bullkitten. FIX THE BUGS THATkittenMATTERS.

If you are joining through the pop-up dialogue or by walking up to the entry point: Both, however after initially joining through the pop-up dialogue, it doesn’t seem to work any more and we have to walk up to entry point
How many people in the party tried creating the instance: We all did. We relogged, changed characters, tried going in separately, together… Nothing worked.
Any other details you can provide: So what happens is that we can all enter the dungeon separately – in different dungeon instances to each other. This is pointless of course, but when we try entering together or after the initial ’we’re in different instances’ we can’t even enter it – alone or together. A lot of people on the Sea of Sorrows server have had this problem too, as we all stand around the entrance complaining :P

So I just reached level 30 on my mesmer and figured I’d check out AC (for the first time ever). The AC door was closed when I got there, I joined a group, the door opened, I walked into the open door, watched the cutscene, found I was spawned in my own instance of the dungeon. I leave the instance. TP to Black Citadel, TP back to AC, I can’t enter the instance, the pop up comes up but clicking enter does nothing but close the window. Party member suggests that I relog, I log out to character selection, log back to my mesmer, still can’t enter the instance, pop up comes up again but does nothing. I TP to Black Citadel, TP back to AC again, I can enter, but I am alone again.
I leave the group. Log out completely, close GW.exe, log back in, go to my mesmer, join a new group. They go inside and I can go in by walking in, I yet again have my own instance. I leave, TP to BC, log out, login into an alt, log back into my mesmer, TP back to AC, still can’t get into AC, log in and out again, I get the pop up it still does nothing. I can get it by walking in, but I am alone. I leave the group, log out again completely. Join a new group with a friend, the pop up instantly happens (and does nothing) and the AC door is already open. I leave the group and exit GW2.exe to come write this complaint.
EDIT: I just logged in after having the game closed for about 45-60mins, logged into my mesmer, my AC door was open already and already bugged.

I first tried to go in by clicking the pop up, but nothing happened. I then zoned into TA, and was all by myself inside.
I zone out and click the pop-up again…..nothing happens. I then try to walk thru the portal again, this time it won’t let me in. And this is happening with 2-3 people in my party every time I try and do this place.
What’s the deal A-net? This seems like something you would do an emergency patch for.

Pretty much what everybody said. The group was able to get in the dungeon (though it was difficult for one of us), but then I got disconnected. I never managed to go back. I tried logging off, closing the game, going to other maps and back.
Clicking the pop-up did nothing. As for the portal entry, it seemed to work every 15 minutes or so and only for 1 time. Even then, it usually teleported me in another instance than the rest of the party.

We tried numerous permutations of members entering. When we could enter, it would always create a new instance and that party member would enter in by themself. If the Join Party window popped up, clicking Enter would not do anything. Only by walking in for the first time and getting the Enter Dungeon window would it even be possible to enter the instance.
Why haven’t we seen an official post on this yet?!

Ascalonian Catacombs – EU Seafarer’s Rest
Ascalonian Catacombs is broken in both story and explore mode on the EU server Seafarer’s Rest. It has been so since the patch 3 days ago.
When groups try to zone into the instance, the invitation pops up to invite them but clicking on it does nothing at all. When they run manually into the instance, they are all sent separately into individual versions alone.
It’s working on some other servers, but it’s still broken on Seafarer’s days later.
Having problems entering Arah explore mode.
I go in after/before my party and it puts me in a separate instance, it also doesn’t enter me when the pop appears after someone has entered, I press the button and it does nothing.
On Henge of Denravi
The event to open citadel of flame has been bugged all week. We are not able to get in the instance.
How about instances like home instances, and instances like Stonewright’s Steading?
seriously Anet, can you fix your game? For weeks, these kind of issues in dungeons have been happening, people can’t enter, enter and don’t see each other. Events bug for no reason, bosses are unkillable (cof path 1, we simply couldnt do it, massive spam of crystals kept healing the boss).
The latest one: Arah exploration mode
Tried creating the party with 3 different people, entered the first time, noone saw each other, then after some relogs and remaking party, couldnt even enter.
You are losing your players if you can’t fix these issues, because people will get to max lvl and won’t like what they see…..

Tried to get in on Monday evening. Same as a few other reports, each party member ended up with their own instance. Same as a few other reports, we tried re-logging and re-entering and re-joining the party in various combinations to no avail.
Tried again tonight with one other party member for better coordination, and still ran into the exact same problems.

I am having lots of issues right now.
Firstly, My party had trouble getting into the same instance for Sorrow’s Embrace. It took some “work arounds” i.e (Logging out and back in until everyone loaded into the same instance)..Finally ,we got in and started story mode.
Everything was fine until Kudu. About halfway through the fight, I encountered a Network Error and was disconnected completely from the game. I launched the game back up and logged in, however, was unable to get back into the instance. The “Enter Story Mode” Pop up window would come up, however, clicking it had no effect, nor did walking through the dungeon portal. I then started trying “work arounds”. I logged out and back in, Left the party, and every different variation I could think of..still, nothing worked.
Finally, I went to another dungeon, entered that instance and came back out, and traveled back to Sorrow’s Embrace. I was then able to enter the dungeon, however, I was placed in a completely different instance than my party members. Tried it again, and same thing.
I’m not quiet sure how far we were into the dungeon..but needless to say, the run is over, and im frustrated that I could not complete what I had started.
Server is Isles of Janthir
If it’s any help: I play on the same IP as my boyfriend, who was in the party with me at the time. He did not get a network error.
Also, I’ve seen a guild member have internet issues and able to come in and out of a dungeon multiple times without issue.
Thanks for any help on the matter. If nothing else, maybe i’m not alone in this.

I finally got into AC today!!…except about 5 mobs in everybody got booted out for no reason and we couldn’t get back in.
I’m getting so tired of this, I think I may buy WoW or something and deal with the stupid pandas..at least they have their dungeons working.
No groups on Gandara have been able to get into Arah (SM or Exp) since the patch. Doesn’t matter what way you try to enter, group will always be split up upon zoning in. Please, as the dungeon appears to be working on other server, look into this. A simple server-reset might be all we need..

- Small window appear with the option “Enter Explorable Mode”
- We clicked that option
- Nothing happened

WOW… having the time of my life. My party and I cleared Arah all the way to Zhaitan, then I crashed during the Zhaitan introduction cutscene (the 1st time we see Zhaitan’s in-game model). When I logged back in I was teleported back to Cursed Shore. I can’t go back inside the dungeon. I click on Enter Dungeon and nothing happens. I walk into the portal and nothing happens. I left party and tried going in but NOTHING HAPPENS!
Then suddenly one try out of 20 works and I do teleport inside Arah, but I’m inside my own instance. Another group member crashed. He has the same problem!!!
Now everyone left the instance…and we are all stuck outside with no way to enter Arah. We tried closing the client , moving to another map, everything and this crap isn’t changing. We’re stuck outside and it looks like we’ll have to start over if we’ll ever be able to reenter.
