"Victory or Death" Bug [merged]
and we’re NOT recruiting ^^
I just have… no words, been enjoying the personal story something immensly, only to reach this bug and then to learn it has existed for atleast 2 weeks?
This is something that should’ve been hotfixed the day after it was reported, not 2 weeks later :S
Patchday tomorrow?
The ship’s not moving for me either, can’t interact with anything.
The giants are still throwing eagles and asura at me though…
Here’s a post by a dev on the situation, hidden in another thread:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Personal-Story-Restoration-update/page/8#post5350146
This issue has been reported for weeks now and still no official response on a timeline to repair. I’m not leveling any new characters until this get fixed.
This crap is broken……………wtfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
Wow … just wow … Anet why don’t you at least give us a response? Nothing? Anyway, at this rate we want a solution done, not just some “we are aware of the situation” ..although, that would’ve been nice like 10 days ago …
I also wasted other people’s time, asking for their help and try it out again and again. Very disappointed… I know fixs takes time, I’m a dev myself, but 2 weeks … I know you are all about HoT but … this is more important..
An update for those near the end of their Personal Story: The Victory or Death fix is undergoing testing currently. I don’t have a release date to share at this time, but I do want to let you know that things are in progress. Thanks for your patience.
That is the response Anet gave us, chill.
Also, no. This is not more important than HoT. Fixing something that most people have already done/don’t care for is not more important than working on an update that will make the company money.
It won’t make money if ppl leave cause they don’t do their job. I’ve done the PS many times, I’ve been around since release and I’ve seen way too many bugs from 2 years ago still not fixed.
Daily activites:
- Run HotW for a chance on jewel recipes;
- DT for geodes and crystals;
- Finish pvp daily quests;
- Come here to check if the quest bug has been fixed.
Been doing great on 3 of those for the past 2 weeks.
fix your stuff anet jesus
Fix this, please.
I’m a new player (started 2 weeks ago) and cannot complete my personal story. Annoying! It was mostly fun until this point and I’d love to get this finished.
Will there be a Fix ?
It’s very annoying , you can’t even make the Personal Story tracker go away!!!!!
WTF Same Problem this’s so freaking annoy .
Can’t finish story in Arah, on the airship you can’t use things (turret/repair station).
Will there be a Fix ?
It’s very annoying , you can’t even make the Personal Story tracker go away!!!!!
It will be fixed soon. It is tuesday, do I guess maybe a patch today.

I hope you have right.
I have the same problem with this mission

Amen…
To the people saying that this isnt an important issue…
What are you even thinking? For new players coming into this game, not being able to do the final mission of the game is a huge turn-off, and GW2 needs new players to retain its playerbase.
I loved my personal story, every bit of it, and when I realized I’m finally there, time to take on zhaitan, and…. The mission is bugged, I was devastated, and when I hit the forums to notice this bug has been around for at least 2 weeks, it left a really sour taste in my mouth.
I have the living story season 2 unlocked, but I’m not touching that untill this mission is fixed, I like to do things in order, this is directly preventing me from doing so.
According to patch notes, the bug is fixed with today’s patch.
Guys, try it and leave your feedback please.
Cheers.
Looks like there is a fix, let’s see if it’s true…..

Allegedly fixed! Come join me on NA to give it a whirl!
The cannon works but the copter won’t move.
Edit: fixed

This isn’t even the biggest problem, i did not see ONE single arenanet employee say “sorry, it will be fixed eventually”
I want to say thank you for fixing your mistake but god kitten guys, we would have accepted to a “sorry, it will be fixed eventually” How the kitten are you gonna have a game breaking bug for TWO WEEKS and not have a single mention of it?
A. its major to new players, which seems like what you want.
B. its major to olden players that remember the mission and enjoy nostalgia.
C. its god kitten neccasary for your HoT and living season 1-2. Thus, turning your entire updates moot.
Next time, talk to us. Say something. Put up a blog post somewhere, stop being distant. This is your biggest mistake. This is an unforgivable mistake. You can’t ignore people like this, fix the problem and everyone be “yay” were going to remain a little kitteny and definitely not trust you guys.
What if HoT breaks? What if i can’t do my first personal story mission? What if my character is unplayable? Do you think I, or, a new player is going to look at this thread at some point and be like “kitten , kitten these guys, 2 weeks to fix this problem?”
Because this thread isn’t going away, if this EVER breaks again, it will encite the same rage even stronger because NO ONE will expect you to fix it fast. You messed up.
Talk next time. That all said, thank you for fixing the bug. We KNOW it takes time and a lot of work. None of us are angry at the hard workers, we appreciate all of you. However, you reap what you sow.
Now you can play my friends. they fixed it

They did talk about it. Just not in this thread.

And I’m stuck again in the same place. Nothing’s attacking, but I’m on an airship that’s not moving with cannons that I can’t interact with.
Am I doing something wrong? Arghhhh.
Now you can play my friends. they fixed it
Have you successfully completed it? Has anyone?
(For the record, the anvil works.)

I saw in the patch notes that they supposedly fixed this as well. Not the case, still stuck in the same exact spot and same problem. Giants are unresponsive and the cannons are not interactive.
Anyone that has downloaded new build that can confirm it is still not working/working?

Just finished. I found a bug that copter won’t move. After retried everything works fine. Look likes either Giant or mob got killed too fast.

I just finished it. I done it solo and everything was fine
Cannons were interactable for me.
On the other hand, Mouth of Zhaitan had invulnerability buff which did NOT go away when I hit him with fire rocks during the vortex.

Just finished, went in with a party. Everything worked fine.
By thread!
This issue has been reported for weeks now and still no official response on a timeline to repair.
As others have pointed out, we did acknowledge the issue in a different thread and have been working to resolve it for several weeks now. I’ve also been posting in other threads on Reddit, but I can’t be everywhere all the time, try as I might.
The issue was fixed in this morning’s patch. Let us know if you encounter any issues. The turrets and anvil should all be interactive now, and the story step should no longer be blocked from completion.
Thanks much.

NPCs are still inactive.

I’m glad you’re trying, but I’ve now run this twice since installing the patch and got stuck in the same place. I can’t make the cannons work, the airship just idles in front of the giants while nothing happens.
I’m doing it solo. No idea why some people can complete it and some can’t. :/
hey guys, i just finished it! its patched
Patch worked for me too, just finished the story.
Cannons were interactable for me.
On the other hand, Mouth of Zhaitan had invulnerability buff which did NOT go away when I hit him with fire rocks during the vortex.
I ran to the very end of the airship as soon as I got on it, and apparently that makes the cannons interactable, though the NPCs won’t help you kill things (spam cannons, die, retry, spam, die, retry.. you’ll get there).
I now got to the point where, as quoted above, the Mouth of Zhaitan doesn’t get damaged, despite hitting him with fire rocks during his vortex attack. Are you supposed to hurl rocks the whole fight, or is he supposed to be killable after a certain amount of rocks?
Maybe I can find a group to try again later. For now, I need a break.
Just finished it, personal story finally done, but the NPCs don’t help on the Airship.
I completed the personal story with my warrior after they removed “My Greatest Fear Plotline”, now that they added it back, the Victory or Death chapter is missing from my story journal. Am I gonna be able to play this part of the story that was removed at some point with my warrior? because I think there were some choices to be made on that mission that was removed.
My older characters that had completed the personal story like 2 years ago and got to do the greatest fear plotline don’t have this bug.
Heading into do it right now. Thanks for the fix.
I still haven’t been able to complete this after 7 or 8 attempts. I guess I’ll give it another go shortly. Hope it works. Sucks not knowing anyone in game anymore too for groups (despite the group finder) but I’d rather solo a “personal” story and complete it for once.
Just did this on a toon about 1.5 hours ago. Now I go back on another toon and its bugged on giants again
ok – had another go – rushed out of the ship as soon as i could and managed to get past the giants and helicopter – hoping the rest goes ok
So it seems it may still be an intermittent problem :\
(edited by mairtin.6703)
tested with one toon, seems working
Tested with same character who had the bug last week and it worked !
Quite tough to solo when no NPC is helping for the middle part, thought. Hope that will get fixed asap.
and we’re NOT recruiting ^^
I’ve done victory or death 5 times before the patch to make it soloable, this was the first time since that patch and doing it solo, so I dont know if they changed it in that patch but…
I didn’t get any ground chests at all
I am absolutely sure there used to a chest behind the console zojja stands at in the last phase and I am also pretty sure I remember getting one during the find the power cores bit at the start.

the chests were removed when it became soloable I believe.

My boyfriend and I have done this 4 times now, 3 before the patch and once after. We finished the whole thing, killed Zhaitan, but now it’s saying that we still need to find the first power core. What the hell? We can’t leave the instance and we didn’t get credit for finishing because we apparently need to FIND THE FIRST POWER CORE.
I’m so sick of this crap. Now we need to restart..yet again.
