Guild Wars 2

A player asked some assistance to find a waypoint in Caledon Forest, after some searching we noticed that the waypoint was simply… gone. Wardenhurst Waypoint to be spesific, since I had done my world completion a long time ago the map showed me it’s done 18/18 but there were only 17 waypoints in the map. So this is blocking progress quite badly, we made a ingame report but I’m wondering if there are any other waypoints missing aswell. I’m not sure if the event “Help the Wardens defend Wardenhurst” has anything to do with it since it seems to be stuck in the last wave.

I’ve seen this happen here before, years ago, and only with this waypoint. At a guess it’s the event bugging out while it’s in the middle of changing the waypoint to being contested, and ultimately there was nothing to do except wait for the next patch to reset the map or find a different instance of the map that hasn’t had the bug.

Edit: if it’s the last wave it’s more likely to be as it’s changing the waypoint to uncontested.

If I recall right contested waypoint doesn’t prevent you from discovering it, then adding it to your map completion. I can’t recall for sure then I don’t know if it’s this way, but I remember discovering contested waypoints on past.

That wasn’t quite what I meant. The event is bugged out right at the end, and I’m speculating that it’s removed the contested waypoint, but failed to replace it with an uncontested waypoint as part of ending the event.

Ah I see what you mean, but even so it’s weird. It would make sense if it didn’t bring the icon on map back after being uncontested, but contested waypoints aren’t removed from world (you still see that floating stone and stuff) then I think it would be still triggerable but I also don’t see any waypoint at that pic. O.o Weird.
