Guild Wars 2

Just adding myself to this list. I’ve been trying to finish my achievements for over a week. I reported the problem to Anet in detail and they said there is no way around it and we need to be patient and wait. I must admit though it is hard to be patient when it seems that the problem is being ignored. At this point just an update would be very much appreciated. Even the “Known Issue Tracker” hasn’t been updated in four days so it’s hard to tell where they are with everything.

Yeear, looks crazy. Even more season 2 is not a free content. I bought crystals to unlock story and it will be a question for me in future to spend money for content which can be simply unavaliable.

As I start this quest (solo mind you), when I attempt to interact with the wall, nothing occurs. My character centers on the interaction point, but nothing happens.

From video play-thoughs I am aware there is supposed to be a progress bar, and setting walls on fire. Yet I get nothing. I’ll hit f for interact, double click, stow my pet and try, dance around in front of the bloody wall, nothing.

Help?

Having the same problem here and with the guard. Did report it as well. I skipped over to work on this chapter since I was stuck with the guard and didn’t realize that this bug was part of the next chapter until I was at the wall and it wouldn’t work. Disappointing and surprising that it is taking so long to fix these two problems considering how many people are experiencing it.

What’s the status on this?

been a while…

think cave is broke

anyway made it to the mystery cave got the torch went to the mysterious wall pressed f (interact) and …nothing tried a few time same result ..am i doing something wrong? even watched youtube to see how its done i did the same still nothing

I am currently having same issue after just trying this to enter the cave today. Nothing happens. I’m glad I found these comments so I can stop beating my head against the cave wall trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong. Please fix this soon ANET. I would like to finish LS2.

It’s been bugged for a bit. It’s on their list of things to fix. I haven’t seen an ETA yet tho.

Same problem here. Big fail.

:( so it could be a while not happy

It could be, but I think it will be in one of the next bigger updates — they have been consistently working on blocking issues for HoT & Personal story (and for legendary crafting/collections). That’s speculation on my part (and some wishful thinking). Regardless, keep an eye out for the patch notes.

Since it’s neither HoT nor precursor collection related I expect this issue to be even below bottom tier priority and thus I strongly don’t think there will be a fix anytime soon, unfortunatly.
Known issue tracker gives no sign of hope aswell since its last update was on march 15th …

It’s the exact same issue as during the Meeting the Asura quest. The game reacts to your imput, but nothing happens. It shouldn’t be much programming work to make sure the interaction leads to a valid function. I am incredibly displeased that this is allowed in such a known, big game as Guild Wars 2. Especially since I’ve paid for the Living Story season 2.

Just come across this, trying to finish luminescent collections (after putting it off forever). LS can’t be completed at the moment.

Same thing as the other thread…

Thank you ArenaNet for another patch of more Gem Store content!

Who needs a working game when we have more gem store items?!

Sigh.

Can’t progress any further, please fix this annoying bug..

Another patch downloaded with no fix to this problem. I just tried the cave tool tip again. Nothing.

Ive been trying to do the storyline to start the expansion, but there are a lot of bug on last few missons that i played´.
One of them is knocking a guard down on Meeting Asura, and the other one is the torch that doesnt open a door to the cave.

I just spended 26 euros for nothing

I started doing the luminiscent collections last week and just now realized that it’s literally impossible since these quests are bugged and apparently have been bugged for awhile with no fix. This is extremely surprising to me that ArenaNet would not fix this especially since Living Story 2 is something SOLD SEPARATELY in the Gem Store.

Same problem here:
I can’t use divine fire on the mysterious wall

please fix!

I’m having the same issue, both with the wall and with the story 7 ‘Meeting the Asura’ which i think there’s already a topic about.

Has anyone tried running the story through from the beginning so that your current progress is at that point? I didn’t have this problem when I did the story the first time without the potential for achievements.

So I was running through the living world season 2 on a alt and for some reason whenever I do the story mission The mystery cave, the very first step of using the divine flame to open the cave, it just won’t work I’ve tried rebinding the key doing the previous episode clicking the prompt and, the like but nothing works.

Note: Contacted Support just posting this here as part of the process.

A hotfix has just been released that is supposed to fix this. Have you been doing this mission after applying it, or before?

It appears to be fixed!!! Thanks, Anet.

I also can confirm that the divine fire will now interact with the mysterious wall. It took some time but it is fixed.

Fun fact: no word about it in the patch notes, nor on the “known issues tracker”, unless it’s hidden in “Fixed a bug that blocked progression on some story steps.”, though to me that points out to the regular personal story, not the living story.
So I guess they fixed it “accidently”. Wouldn’t coun’t on it remaining stable beyond the next patch, so better get your story steps and achievments while you can Good luck everyone!

“Fixed a bug that blocked progression on some story steps” sounds right as this blocks a lot of LS2 content and some HoT story content.

I just did the mission and it worked and I colud open the door

Yay fixed! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
