Guild Wars 2

Ever since the update on April 30th, the Frozen Maw event chain hasnt appeared on the Gunnar’s Hold server. Whilst i havent been on most of the day, quite a few guild players have and they said they havent seen it appear. The last time anyone on Gunnar’s Hold server/world has successfully completed ( or started it for that matter) has been before the update.

Is it possible for this to be checked out?

I didn’t saw it active since update.

No events running, From what i gather chain and maw spawned Last night (Just after update) and hasnt restarted since.
Hope this helps

pretty much says ‘The Maw is quiet’, all the time. Hasn’t spawned in a very long while.. A lot of people think it is bugged.

What’s the state of the meta event? Which events (if any) are currently running? I need to know WHERE in the event chain it’s stalled. Thanks!

I am still amazed by this: It is 8 month after the release, hundreds of events have been found broken/stalled and fixed in the past months, and you still have to actually ask the players for that kind of information, instead of, say, opening some back-end console and typing something like

state -info=all -server=gunnars_hold eventchain/3456_the_frozen_maw

to get each an every piece of information that might be relevant.

Live servers do not have several pieces of functionality that can be used for debugging, afaik.

I’d say that when a client application (aka “the game”) can retrieve this kind of information from the live servers for the sake of playing the game, a simple monitoring application should be able to retrieve this kind of information, too. Also, there are usually very helpful auxiliary resources such as log files.

But, of course, I don’t know jack about ANets live servers. I am just saying that if my servers would have such fragile components like the event system, I would develop simple monitoring tools to help me solve such problems efficiently (and more conveniently for me), and I wouldn’t query my customers for their epics (except, maybe, just as a token to show that someone is taking care).
