Dear Arenanet,

I seem to have a small bug in my story journal where my living story: “The Dragon’s Reach Part 1” will not be listed as completed like my other chapters. It clearly says that I have completed it and therefore have access to its achievements, but it would still give me the option to continue the story and the icon on the left sidebar will not change. It is a small problem but it really bugs me.

Restarting the computer does not work, and I really do not want to replay the instance just to check whether if it fixes the bug. Could you please suggest me a solution?

Some facts that might help; I finished “The Dragon’s Reach Part 2” before Part 1 (I also finished Chapters 2 and 8 ) because I did not have Part 1 unlocked (I did not have Chapters 1, 5, 6, 7 also). I unlocked them with gems later. Does this have something to do with it?

I have the very same problem but with “The Dragon’s Reach, Part 2”. I didn’t buy any of the episodes, and fully completed them as they were released.

I have that on a bunch of different characters and the same for a friend. As far as we can tell it happens if an episode gets done out of order. My friend was able to fix it on his characters by redoing all the episodes but I don’t care enough to go do it yet.

I experienced this bug as well. In my case, I did all the episodes in order, but I found that characters who hadn’t finished their main personal story — the one that ends with “Victory or Death”, where you kill Zhaitan — all got this bug for “The Dragon’s Reach, Part 2”. Those who had completed their personal stories prior to Season 2 didn’t get the bug.

I was able to fix it by completing “Victory or Death”, then redoing the buggy episode. Redoing the entire season, as Khisanth suggests, was unnecessary.

Wasn’t suggesting redoing all of them. Just the buggy ones. One of my characters that have this bug finished the PS over a year ago, maybe 2 years.

Ah, I see. Fair enough, then. The way you worded it originally implied that you needed to redo everything, which made me despair at first because I hadn’t fixed mine yet and I really didn’t want to have to do the entire season all over on three characters. :p

This makes more sense, since now it seems we’re using the same fix: play through all unfinished or buggy episodes, from both PS and S2, in chronological order.

The only way I’ve gotten the grey star to go away is by replaying that entire episode from start to finish.

I wish that grey star wasn’t a thing. I don’t care which episode was my most recently played. If I completed it and got the achievements then quit the episode, it should show the completed with achievements icon. If I didn’t finish the achievements…sure grey star away, but if I’m done with the episode, I don’t want to have to play through the entire thing just to get the grey star to go away.

Yup, agreed. That gray star has been bugging me too and worse, at times it shows like I have 2 most recently played chapters (2 chapters with that star).
