Moorwatch Tower Vista Bug[Merged]
The catapult that’s intended to launch players to the top of the vista is bugged, in that it’s not giving a dialog/interfacing option, when mousing over it.
Regards.
yeah please fix this im 99% world completion because of this
Because you have to wait for the event be finished, dozens of bats (harpies?) attacking the camp, before the NPC guards start the “bumping” session.
The event finishes and nothing can be done after that. Sat around for a couple hours and no change.
Still having trouble with this, we sat around for a good 20 minutes on Dragonbrand waiting for the event to trigger or something and nothing.
This is incredibly frustrating- I did everything in the zone, and I’m blocked because I need to wait for an event to occur. Really poorly-designed “quest.”
Same problem on Fort Aspenwood. It hasn’t been triggering for over a day now.
You currently cannot interact with the Cannon to reach the Vista Point on StormBluff Isle server as well.
Tarnished Coast as well. I think there is a missing event where Tigh is supposed to bring cattle, escort mission.
Having the same problem…. He is waiting for an assisnant so I cant do anything. I believe that event is bugged
This seems still to be an issue. I’ve put a fair amount of time into sitting around not doing anything, waiting for an event that isn’t happening.
Yeah, it’s hard to guess that you’ll need to wait for some event to finish, especially when NPC said that no one can use his device without any suggestion how to change his mind.
But after event successfully finished I could go this catapult and use it. What I’m disappointment though is lack of flying animation. It just teleport you (with loading screen) at the top of the tower.
One cannot finish the Diessa Plateau without it..hope it is fixed soon.
Yeah, I was just trying this on Ehmry Bay and cannot interact with it either.
I did it. You can interact with the thing when the farmer appears as a merchant on your map.
cool ill give it a try
You have to wait for a dynamic event to happen. For a while this event was bugged but even now it’s not as easy to trigger as talking to a NPC in the farm.
Did you talk to the two guards at the iron tower first? One talks about getting hit by a flying cow. That one will run over to the cattlepult overseer. They will have a conversation and then the cattlepult should allow you to interact with it.
ehmry bay server is having the same issue
Same problem in Kaeinig. I’ve tried multiple times the past 24 hours. Please fix.
Ditto on Sea of Sorrows.
Been bugged since Saturday morning on Sorrow’s Furnace
Same for the Desolation server aswell. I did made a thread about this bug hours ago but I’m content that someone made it first so hopefully they will notice this thread and get it sorted out soon.
It’s also bugged in Northern Shiverpeaks.
Talking to the two guards at the iron tower isn’t enough. I just spoke to them and I can’t interact with the cattlepult.
I was able to do this on another character a week ago.
Not working cattlepult which is required for vista on the Moorwatch Tower. Location – Diessa Plateau. Event with harpies also does not appear.
This is the only vista I’m missing for the world completion….
Hope Anet fixes this or I’ll be stuck at 99 forever.
I can confirm this.
Which world? It didn’t work on Maguuma the Tuesday morning iirc.
You have to complete the defense event before you can use the cattlepult. Once you do, get close to it (it’ll have the gear icon, the best place to get it to light up and able to select it is behind the merchant that’s been disabled) and select the option to jump in. You might have to wait until he launches a few cows after the event but it should work right after you clear it. Works perfectly fine on Devona’s Rest, not sure about the other servers.
This is no bug. It has been known for some time that the interaction is available after the dynamic event. Try completing the dynamic event where the NPC launches cows to the harpies’ nests. After the end of the event, you would be able to interact with it.
P.S. After launching myself and viewing the vista I was curious as to the rail at the end could be jumped across. Turns out that it is and I fell to my death!
I am from Henge of Denravi and it appears to me that the cannon needed to get the Vista at The Blasted Moor has been disabled in my server. I am constantly getting the message “The content has been disabled temporarily. Please try later”. Is it just me or is someone else having the same issue? Thanks for taking a look.
Same here on Yak’s Bend … annoying since its my last vista in that area.
OK, this has been causing LOTS of confusion in-game so I thought I’d just make this post to clear things up. Heaven knows that it baffled me at first as well!
The Vista itself is NOT bugged. What IS bugged is the betting minigame with the merchant.
For the Vista, all you have to do is click on the Cattlepult and interact with it. That’s it! You don’t have to click on the merchant at all to get the Vista.
I hope this helps and saves a lot of headaches!
Is there plans to re-enable this?
I get the content is disabled message when I talk to the NPC.
It is the last Vista that I need for the map completion.
Server: Henge of Denravi
Thanks!

I think this will be of assistance to you!
I’ve tried this myself on the “Jade Quarry” server, and it doesn’t work. Everyone on that server gets the “temporarily disabled” prompt from Mad Mardine.
Hey, thanks for the reply, but the catapult isn’t prompting me with anything.
The “Content disabled” message is now gone, and the NPC is no longer responding to anything at all.

What the OP says may be true on his server but not in many others like in “Gate of Madness” when i click on the cattlepult i only get the “temporarily Disabled” message too, so IT IS bugged.
Same in Piken Square. You simply can’t click on the catapult, and clicking on the npc gives the “temporarily disabled message”
It works on FA server. The skill point however, is bugged.
When i did this one on my warrior i couldn’t use the cattlepult at all (no use option) until after doing the de and betting. But this was back on the 28th so something may have changed since then.
I had to change server from Sea of Sorrows to Eredon Terrace to use the cattlepult.
bugged in borlis pass. catapult isn’t even selectable
I was Getting that “temporarily disabled” – whent away for 20-30 minutes , then it was Working – dont know if i whent out of range and it reset or (insert idear here?)
Your solution does not work. No matter what I do I get the “temporarily disabled” message
I went back twice the past few days and get the same content is temporarily disabled message as others did.
Bugged on the “seafarer’s rest” realm. Interacting with Mad Mardine gives an error:
“This content has been temporarily disabled”
They have disabled the catapult entirely now.
