Guild Wars 2

I have noticed this bug on several occasions while passing through the area.

The ‘Protect the Soundless Villages from the Nightmare Court’ event is bugged such that one or more villagers will behave as though still part of the event even when the event is not active.

The ‘Help Tanaith Liberate the Soundless Prisoners’ doesn’t seem to activate – whether this is caused by the above bug is unclear.

Either way, I have not seen either event actually trigger for some time, and have spent fairly extensive periods in the area over the last few days here monitoring this issue.

The up shot is that blue moas do not currently spawn in Caledon Forest.

I recently completed Chapter 5 of personal story for a Sylvari, having chosen the Quaggan storyline after joining the Priory.

I enjoy returning to my home instance every now and then to see the tangible impacts of the story on my character’s supposed HQ. It seems that this could be a really enjoyable feature of the game, especially for those interested in the evolution of lore and progression of the narrative.

However, I cannot understand why my character (who has a large pool of water in their home instance) is joined solely by the Quaggan Shashoo, and the human home instance has an entire village of Quaggan’s stuffed into a small fountain!

I think this is a real shame, and it would be both aesthetically pleasing, and coherent narrative-wise, to have this consistent across all the playable races who can side with the Quaggans. I.e., I understand that Asura players suffer from the same issue.

While I have not experienced enough of the separate storylines to make a judgement, I wonder if this is an inconsistency that is repeated in other racial sympathies.

I can understand that this is not a development priority, but it is small (meaningful) features like this that make Guild Wars 2 the rich and immersive world that it is.
