Guild Wars 2

I have been on a lot of servers and it would seem that I am unable to start the temple of Melandru event. So is it officially bugged or not?

I think so. Haven’t seen it trigger in weeks either.

Then again, quite a number of events are bugged in Orr. I don’t think I have ever seen a feature as prone to bugging out as Dynamic Events is this game.

Very old bug. Izzmek is hanging around Gavbeorn but the option to start the event isn’t available. It’s seems like the NPC failed to reset. Many bugs seem to fall under that category including some associated with hearts and dungeons.

At this point I am really hoping the reason they haven’t fixed any of it is because they are working on a solution to solve all of them at once at the source.

Well seeing as all the servers are 1 now megaserver, technically you didn’t move to any other servers, the temples rarely get uncontested now, as people do the defend events on the temples so that they can get the trait unlock that has been added to them, Anet decided they wouldn’t put timers on the events in the cursed shore so getting the temples now is down to pure luck, you basically have to sit in cursed shore and wait for the temple to reset and wait for pre to restart.

They really ought to make these major events fully reset if they’re not activated after 24 hours. The most likely cause is always going to be a bug. GW2 doesn’t have support staff to manually reset the events.

Very old bug. At least they fixed the other Melandru stall by adding a timer to the defense event, so it can actually fail without player intervention.

I was on a copy of Cursed Shore this morning where it wasn’t bugged – not 12 hours ago, so it’s not bugged on all of them.

I just did it 4x in the last four days, so try guesting to one of the high population servers in your region and then see if you get into a different map. My guess is there are probably 3-4 instances of Cursed Shore per region for most of the day.
