Guild Wars 2

I am also not getting any loot despite silver or gold medals on kills. It was hit or miss before but I’m 0 of 3 just now. Yesterday got 3 of 3 even with an underlevelled toon, although doing constant reasonable dps.

New patch seems to have broken it.

I got it done by popping Plague with blind and chill on the enemies around the NPCs nearly all the way to the fort. Copious buffs from Guardians on the way.

I didn’t spend my cyphers, because my alt that had the Scarlet’s lair access was only level 78 and I thought ‘might as well wait until he’s level 80’. I checked online, and saw that the lair would still be there according to the A-net employee! If I had known it would be removed, I would have used my few cyphers to get at least some level 78 gear to salvage for luck and mats.

Putting the chests back for at least the duration of this current LW phase, as a grace period, seems like a no-brainer. Being able to get the odd fragment from mobs in LA would be cool too. It’s a shame when one mechanic is just gone in the space of a few minutes and all the stuff becomes redundant.

Please put the Cypher chests back!
