Guild Wars 2

I am currently working on the HoT story step “The Predator’s Path”. This is the story step where you have to talk to the exalted guy and then find Taimi 's disks. I supposedly find the disk, and I am told to find the next one. But the disk didn’t do anything. There is no audio, and no hologram. The first time I did this, I thought it was odd, but maybe nothing was supposed to happen. But I find the second disk and it plays as it is supposed to. Then I go to look for the third disk, and like the first disk it doesn’t play, but tells me to fetch the next one. At this point I get fed up and quit the mission and restart. The same thing happens. I read up on it and supposedly this can happen if you change maps. I didn’t recall switching maps, but I restarted anyway and made sure I didn’t switch maps. Here is a list of things I have tried. [I reset the episode by quitting the Predator’s Path (TPP), switching to a different episode, and then quitting that episode]

-in auric basin > quit TPP > reset > start TPP
-in auric basin > quit TPP > switch to another map >, reset > return to auric basin > start TPP.
-leave auric basin > quit TPP > reset > start TPP > return to auric basin
-leave auric basin > quit TPP > reset > return to auric basin > start TPP

There may be even more permutations of this that I’ve tried, but I don’t remember and the story location is a pain in the ass to navigate and I’m tired and frustrated and disheartened I don’t even want to play anymore. I could just brush through the episode and accept the missing chunk of story, but I don’t want to do that and I don’t play the game just to ignore the story, or go on youtube and watch someone play it for me. I hope someone knows of a fix for this, and if an ArenaNet employee is reading this I really hope this can be fixed, and I hope you understand why this is so upsetting for me and probably many other players as well. Look at this wiki page. It’s two years old. I care about every small bit of this game, and I sincerely hope you do too.

just so you know, the audio skipping thing can also happen if there are other people around doing the same story steps (I’ve experienced this many times), so make sure when you’re going near the disks that no other players are there.

believe me, there’s hardly ever anyone there. the place is swarming with mordrem tho, so that could be a contributing factor. but it’s always swarming with mordrem, so why wouldn’t others have been through quite a journey since I first posted this. I did a clean install of my whole os. The problem still persists

Have you tried a -repair of the client, in case of corrupted file(s)?

Tried contacting the CS Team?

Good luck.

Hi, I did have a ticket open with support, but it expired and I’m waiting for them to respond to my request to reopen it. I will run a repair, but I just did a clean install so I find it odd (with my limited knowledge of computing :P) that a corrupted file would carry over to cause the same problems. Thanks for the advice, and believe me I need all the luck I can get :p

I ran the repair, same story
