Guild Wars 2

On WSR, the champ oak has not been seen by anyone all morning.

I have started Sister Brenda off from the monastery at least 5 times. At no point in that time has the champ oak been seen or indeed been seen by anyone who has answered map chat all morning.

As the champ oak has not been killed the meta event chain for Secrets in the swamp is not starting and shadow Behemoth is not coming up

That’s weird. There is no need to “kill” the Oakheart, as far as I know. It BLOCKS the pre-events from starting, rather than triggering them. It is more of a need of it “not being alive”.
Still, somehow the chain is bugged, I guess.

I haven’t actually checked the API for WSR it may believe the Oak is stuck in an up state, but that is what I am getting at rather than that you have to kill it to trigger the events, we all know that killing it is not an actual trigger for the event chain.
