Guild Wars 2

wrath blades.2865:

bifrost 1 : I’ve got the recipe for bifrost tier 1 and was clearly stated that it can be used by weaponsmith …same problem I can see only the insignia. Few other players have the same problem. Now what should we do? How do we get back the recipe, so we can use it on the proper crafting profession?

You need to make the Experimental Staff on an artificer (because staves are made with artificing). To get the recipe back, you can buy the chest you got from completing the tier 1 collection from Hobbs.

UPDATE: Modnir is finally fixed and dropping the correct item for Dusk. Woot! Thanks Anet:D

Hyper Cutter.9376:

For Kudzu 1, the puzzle in the last room of Tears of Itlaocol is bugged, preventing access to the flower in the treasure room. I assume this has something to do with the lighting bug that’s making the entire room (and certain other areas in the game that should be dark) light up like the godkitten ed sun, since I can barely even see the pattern on the statue.

It’s not bugged per se, it’s just extremely difficult to read : I managed to do it last week (though I agree that it’s a pain and the lighting problem should be fixed).

ItsFishyTricks.7316:

The Moot III: The Energizer:
Indigo Mushrooms do not stack, do not combine to create mushroom milk needed to craft Indigo Mushroom Milkshake.
Dance with Abaddon does not work at all

where did you get indigo mushrooms, been looking for them everywhere.

Currently building the predator prec on my engineer and can’t get 2 items listed, I have all the others. The two items are:
-Scarlet’s Prototype Mechanism (can see it on the desk but is untargetable and you cant interact with it.
-Decrypted Weapons Research (I used the console after finishing the puzzle and chose Decrypt weapons research, and it did nothing and exited me out of the console menu)

Bolt III: Zap

Two collection items are bugged:
(a) Illuminated Overcharged Quartz (“Use the Luminates Plant in Metric Province to add illumination to a piece of charged quartz”)
(b) Strangely Overcharged Quartz (“Use the Strange Energy Source in Timberline Falls to add some strange energy to a piece of charged quartz”)

When I bring a charged quartz crystal to one of these hero points, I don’t get the option to overcharge a crystal, so I can’t get the collection item.

fix this please

Patches come and go dusk seems to be fixed but those 2 simple bugs where u have only to put option on hero points like all the others items needed for tier 3 zap is not fixed yet!!! plz do something!

Twilight Tier 1 is solved? or still bugged?

solved, but i can’t buy lv2 book

Bauxite still seems bugged

Tamasan.6457:

The Moot I:

Giant Shark Tooth – only available from a quest chain that involves failing 2 events. The first event in the chain, http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Prevent_krait_from_kidnapping_Okarinoo_quaggans is nearly impossible to fail. The krait do not always capture the quaggans, they kill some of them. Once a quaggan is killed, it appear they will always be killed and never captured. Even if that were not the case, the quaggan can defend themselves rather well and frequently kill the krait faster than they can be killed.

Reef Drake Broodmother Scale – killed the http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Reef_Drake_Broodmother in Southsun multiple times and have not gotten the drop. Every other collection item seems to be first time gauranteed, soI’m assuming this is a bug.

+1 to this
Failing events shouldnt be required for collections.

Twilight Vol.1 : Bashing Bauxite is still bugged.
When we finally could do it, it bugged on last part. And we couldn’t speak to frazz so he could open the gate for last boss.

I have a question.Finally finished Twilight 1 collection,got recipe.There were 3 available crafting disciplines in the recipe description.So I used it on my warrior with whom I got this Modnir item,and who has 5oo Artificer.And now I realise that I can craft only Legendary Inscription because didn’t get Experimental Nightsword Blade and Hilt recipes. So what should I do now?Is hiting the wall with my head the only option?
And if u really need only Weaponsmith for this recipe,so remove Artificer and Huntsman as available crafting professions from the Box of Recipes: Dusk (First Tier) description.Because I’m pretty sure that I won’t be the only one that stupid.

Anet i’m going crazy over here trying to finish my T3 Bolt collection. I have EVERYTHING needed to make Bolt, I just need to finish this last pre collection so i can progress. Please fix this, ive waited long enough =\ especially after ive realized that if I had not done the collection and spent an extra 200g I could have just bought it off the tp :’(

Anet, you need to stop testing things on your development server.

Log on your character in the player’s server and check for the issue.
People give exact detail and location already.

I’m currently stucking at Bolt Collection III too.
Two hero point charges fix shouldn’t be a difficult problem to solve. There’s no event involved with it at all.

Please fix “Strange Energy” and “Luminate Plant” Hero points so they can react to Charged Crystal.

You’re the lucky one here.

You are blocked by the collection, so you still have chance to turn back and buy Dawn from TP right away.

After you reach to the step 2 of collection 1, there’s no turning back.

You literally need to PAY for 100 Deldrimor Steel Ingots, equates to 1045g now.
(Go check TP now)

Add that to all the other mats, and this easily adds up to 1200g + 30+ hrs of other processes.

This exactly. While I really enjoyed collecting all the stuff for the precursor, the fact that I can’t even get what the collection is promising because of a bug is really diminishing the experience. I also have everything. Just waiting on this bug to get fixed.

Can we at least get confirmation that this is getting worked on? The last post was about the dusk precursor bug and it took 6 days to fix that…

Checked with Bolt Collection III, Strange Energy Source still bugged.

Can you PLEASE fix it? Some people been stucking there for 9 days already.

Luminates Plant is also still broken.

I started the hunt for The Predator 1: The Experimental Rifle items.
I am at 70% done with mostly Fractal items to go.

There are however certain items that are bugged and aren’t able to be collected.

1. Scarlet’s Prototype Mechanism – I entered Scarlet’s secret hideout in Lornar’s Pass and found the object on the table next to the door (the object that looks like the one in the picture), however you cannot collect it.

2. Asuran Experimental Weapon – I ended up following advice from another player to collect this item by using another character That hasn’t completed the heat yet. But why aren’t the rifles accessible even after the heart being completed?

3. Decrypted Weapon Research – The console in Professor Portmatt’s Lab gives you the ability to access it. However, nothing unlocks. Are we needing to collect another item to decrypt the console?

Was the collection of the items not tested before release?

In addition, I read about the recipes for crafting not being account wide. Why is that? If you spent the time, resources, money and effort to level up the crafting on one char, should that not be shared account wide?

Anyways, I hope that the bugs with the item hunt can be fixed soon. I will update if I should come across any in the fractals.

Thanks

The experimental Hammer: only two of the statues in the Black Citadel work, the Kenotaph doesnt´t either. Am I too stupid or is this bugged also? Has anyone completed this collection already?

The Dusk collection is bugged for me.

Even though I bought it, it doesn’t not show up as a collection, nor does it show up on the vendor again. It shows up for other people but not me. I tried purchasing other collections and they show up both as collections in the achievement panel and on the vendor still..,,but Dusk has completely disappeared … =(

Bauxite still bugged

It never starts in the crash site. I got to enter in another server with the event already started but the 4 npc were standing outside the door doing nothing and I was there for 20 minutes and nothing happened….

Vatendi.1853:

Bolt III: Zap

• Luminates Plant does not let you get Illuminated Overcharged Quartz

This. Came to the forum to see if I was done by something wrong but others clearly got the same problem. Super annoying

Anthology Of Villains

Recipe still bugged, only recipe gated behind Guild Hall upgrades. This recipe should take Coarse Sandpaper or Coarse Sand like EVERY OTHER recipe. Please fix. Can’t even start the Tier 1 collection.

Twilight III: Has anyone been able to use the Gloominator on the corpse of the Copper Husk(red base in Silverwastes)? I’ve tried a few times and I’m not getting credit.

edit: didn’t work near the corpse, but it worked in the hall thing.

AndrewMcLeod.3857:

Kessex Liberator looks like it should work correctly, though it does depend on other events in the map being completed before it will reset.

Brisban Liberator: it’s likely the case that the Hillstead events should also work, but the collection is currently looking at the enslavement event at Joy’s end (and the subsequent rescue if the event fails).

Overlord’s Defeat and Modniir’s ruin have issues- I’ve identified the problems and we’ll hopefully have them fixed soon.

Frizz’s energy- I can’t see any issues with this, and it’s working fine when I test it out- it works with both the low half-wall as well as the big rotating wall.

For the events breaking, we’re looking into them- they’re working fine for me on the development servers, but hopefully we’ll be able to find the issues.

please fix the twilight coll 1 please !! the inquest lab is still bugged and they npcs die where they can not be rezzed i found an alternate tunnel by jumping over some door but it kicked me back to land please help ! i even tried guesting on other servers to no avail ! If you cannot fix it at least please remove it thank you !

KUDZU VOL. 3 COLLECTION:

Is anyone able to confirm that compost will drop from heirloom seed pouches? Everyone I have contacted in the community states they have opened several (some people have opened several stacks) of the heirloom seed pouches and none have dropped compost.

We have tried opening different types including the ones obtained in new maps, SW, bloomhunger, and the ones that drop from Triple Trouble wurms. I have yet to find someone who has gotten a drop. The group of people going after Kudzu is smaller, so I hope we aren’t ignored. Most of us have spent 400+ gold (and all of our stockpiled mats) to get to this point.

Working on Kudzu too, hopefully it will be corrected soon

The Lover: Possible bug. I’ve been hacking up risen in Malchor’s Leap, and Cursed Shore for several hours now (including yesterday) and have yet to see a Black Pearl. Meanwhile, in map chat someone linked it, and had no clue what it was for (indicating that it may be dropping for people who don’t have the collection at all).
I don’t mind a little work to get the item, but I’ve killed hundreds of risen, including champs, veterans, and bosses at events like Melandru.

Frenzy III Collection:
Someone knows if its a bug in Frenzy collection?

Twoloop Quaggan Bracelet ( quaggan games event dont start?)

OK its fixed got my pre already!

I’m on Howler Tier 3 collection and I’m missing two due to a bug. Two items require you to kneel at Snow Leopard Shrine for Snow Leopard’s Grace (located at Leopardshadow Shrine in Lornar’s Pass) and Wolf Shrine for Wolf’s Ferocity (located at Wolfpaw Shrine in Lornar’s Pass).

When I kneel at them, nothing happens — I don’t get an item nor does any kind of spirit appear to talk to. I’ve successfully kneeled at Raven Shrine as well as Bear Shrine and completed the event, but Wolf and Snow Leopard aren’t working.

EDIT: An update to my post; luckily I found some info on Reddit about those same two collection items in particular not exactly being bugged, but simply listed as the wrong location.

The info told me to kneel at the Wolf and Snow Leopard shrines in Dredgehaunt drifts and not in Lornar’s Pass. I finally completed the collection. To note, I didn’t actually get any items for kneeling like I did before, but my collection was still updated.

I’ve reported it like 11 days ago and wait since then, it was at least 6 patches, only 2 achis block me from zap and i still dont know the reqirements for crafting it, sooooo frustrating. If i knew before i would just buy it from tp, to making big fuzz and race with buying materials about it. Heard that today is the patch but it didn’t happen. In this whole situation the lack of news is most frustrating, not the missing fix. I just don’t know when the patch may come, or even that someone red it (my bug report).

Yeah, I don’t know what do they ACTUALLY FIXED..
There’s no announcement for it either.

How is fixing a 2 interaction bug so hard? There’s not even an event for it…
And the lack of developers response is troublesome too. It’s like they don’t care about this journey at all, because almost ALL of them are SERIOUSLY BUGGED, as if it’s never tested, and just last minute throwing out some stuffs and ask you to do.

Reported in game, in forum, and still no fix for this SIMPLE bug.
They sure have LOTS of time to make those new random Gem items it seems. That’s all they care probably. That’s why the cost and the activity of the entire journey of Precursor crafting is a disaster from beginning to end. Worst GW2 experience of all time.

Kudzu III collection, even when activated, is not dropping compost from any heirloom seed pouches at all

Desypher.4607:

There is also a bug with Kudzu Tier 2, from the Master Huntsman… see screenshot…. the text mentions “thick” twice…. but doesnt mention “coarse” (which i assumed is what was missed…. i tried 20 thick, tried 10 coarse as well…. either way i get just the default message and he wont take the mats ….

Cannot progress further

This is fixed after all….

thank you for fixing the inquest lab event finally finished it tonight

Sunrise III I’m down to the cave behind Jeztar Falls. I assumed it was in Calx’s hideout, but I’ve ran around every inch of the place clicking away (there are two sunbeams in there: one in the center, and one over the hidden chest in the back) without luck. Any success stories out there?

An update to my earlier post about Howler; luckily I found some info on Reddit about those same two collection items in particular not exactly being bugged, but simply listed as the wrong location.

Box of Recipes: The Legend (First Tier) shows as having crafting disciplines for Artificer (450), Huntsman (450), and Weaponsmith (450). Unfortunately since the toon I was on is a Huntsman 500, I automatically double clicked to add it to my huntsman’s list. This is not acceptable as now I have to level up Artificer in order to actually use the recipe. I already have another toon that is Artificer 500. I confirmed that I would need Artificer 450 on my Huntsman by adding Artificer to the toon and seeing the recipe’s on the Artificer list ONLY. It does not appear on the Huntsman’s list. You can see the disciplines on the actual item by seeing the item link [&AgH9FwEA] or the attached image. For future recipes please only have the appropriate crafting discipline listed on the recipe so that this type of error is not duplicated on someone else. I dread that since I already used the recipe on my huntsman that I would have to level up Artificer again. Unless some kind dev happens to take pitty on me and replace the recipe so that I can apply it to my Artificer 500.

AHH Ok. I happened to look back on Craftsman Hobbs (Legendary Crafting NPC), and you can repurchase the Chest of Ancient Mysticism for some karma. This gives you the Essence of Ancient Mysticism, and the Box of Recipes: The Legend (First Tier). I can thus apply the recipe on the appropriate toon without having to re-level another craft discipline. I suspect that once a player has unlocked and completed any of the First Tier chests they can re-purchase it again from Hobbs. My immediate issue is resolved, however please look into clarifying the recipes so others will not fall into a similar situation.

It’s been several days now since I’ve been stuck on T3 Incinerator. It seems to be that for the unstable miasma that needs to be created in IRON HORSE MINES, there is no pressure to interact with to combine my other item with the mordrem thrasher gas bladder. Either this content was not added, or the event that spawns this content is bugged. Thanks!

Probably won’t see a fix for this or the other precursor bugs for awhile. Anet most likely put them on the back burner and is prioritizing other bugs first considering the last time this thread was responded to by an anet staff was 11 days ago. Sad that some of us have waited a year or more for precursor crafting only to have to wait even longer.

It is what it is I suppose. It can be frustrating and even somewhat disheartening to go through all that effort only to be stopped by a bug with no knowledge of when it will get fixed or if it’s even known/being worked on.

That being said I think the team that worked on the precursor crafting did a great job and I really enjoyed doing it up until the two bugged collection items for zap.
