Guild Wars 2

The odd thing is that I am able to make it to the character select. It is only after I select a character and try to enter the world that I crash and get that error.

I keep getting the following error.

“Network erro. The inability to connect to Guild Wars 2 may be caused by Internet routing issues or a server network failure.

If the problem persists, please visit our support website. (Code=5:11:3:159:101)

The game has always worked perfectly up until now.

I think Taidha Covington is a very likely possibility. It is never ever completed on my server (SoR). I have an alt parked there and 99.9% of the time the event is stalled on killing the champion before Taidha. Plus, once you kill that champ, there is no guarantee the event will proceed, you may have to kill the pre champ multiple times before the event advances.

At the same time you are killing the risen boss, someone also needs to be outside on the other end of the island protecting Jenni so she doesn’t die. If you do both successfully, the event has a CHANCE to proceed to the Taidha event. You will likely have to do both those events several times before you are able to advance the chain.

Had nothing better to do while the servers were down so I went to take a look on the official wiki and at the lists of orr events with the skuls by them, meaning you have to beat champions.

Well, out of all the cursed shore listed less than half have descriptions.
Checking if some of these spawn chests might also be a good place to start since
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/NPC_rank says that “These creatures are very rare to see, they can only be found in dungeon instances or in Ruins of Orr group events and require an organized group and concerted effort to take down. They can be identified by a special purple starburst frame with two crossed swords around their target portrait.”

When I can finally log in I’ll go take a look and see if any of the ones with blank pages are up and get some info.

My money is on it being somewhere in Orr.

That isn’t correct (@ Legendary’s only being in Orr). The boss Taidha Convington in Bloodtide Coast is a Legendary.

She’s one of the few Legendary’s that have a “chance” at triggering, making her unique/rare. In addition, the treasure chest is a large one.

But yeah, I think that’s what they meant when they said it was a “rare boss” or a “unique boss” was that it was a Legendary, not a Champion. Just a guess though.

I’ve been trying to do it off an on the past week or two and it keeps “bugging” out at the point where the Lionguard are supposed to attack(you go downstairs, kill the risen boss and all the mobs, but it doesn’t trigger anything afterwards).

I tried guesting on a few other servers and it was the same there(risen boss is killed, NPCs show up, stand around in the camp outside, then disappear and the risen boss in the bottom spawns again).

I’m in that area quite often, but I’ve honestly only seen that event properly working once, and that was RIGHT at the beginning of launch. Other than that, there has either not been enough people to even kill the risen boss or the event has been bugged.

If someone has a server with this working let me know and I’ll guest over there an try it out.

I am on SoR. The event worked for our guild yesterday but we had to do the first escort part of the quest 3-4 times before it would finally advance. Even with quite a few 80’s the events are not easy. We died several times on the first champ boss with a party of 4.

Yeah, add me to the list of people who think it is Taidha. First of all, it is a huge PITA to do, one person has to guard an NPC while a second large group has to kill a really tough champion boss. Doing all that gives you a CHANCE for the event to advance. There is no reason for level 80’s to even be in the zone and I have never once seen the event happen until yesterday.

Just curious, are you on Tarnished Coast?

You can disregard or close this post now. I was finally able to get into an overflow and successfully complete the event and get the rewards. Thanks.

You can disregard my post now. I was disconnected and did not get the rewards, but I was able to get into a guildies overflow and I was able to view the cut scene and get the rewards the second time.
