Guild Wars 2

Back again Since the July 1st update, the DE has been malfunctioning again. This time the NPCs stand at their normal positions and engage in their usual banter. You can trade with the main NPC, but they never move into position to start the DE. I’ve left a character their for a bit, while I attended to out of game things, just to see if I’d had bad timing on it. I thought I saw it run 1 time post update, but I could be wrong. If so, has the DE been put on a 2 hour timer? Rather then the old 10-12 minute one?

Thank you A-net. You have resolved this minor issue. I participated in the DE & the follow-up as well. Good job.

Nice to see I’m not the only over the hill player ( 50 + ). Been playing GW since the beta’s in 2005. Switched over to GW2 in time for the beta. Still having fun adventuring.

1st RPG I ever played was Phantasy Star on the old Sega Master System. I remember having to map out the dungeons on graph paper. Been hooked on these games ever since.

Inculpatus, I remember when they installed the Pong table at the local watering hole

This is still not functioning. There has been another Major update and 2 ‘Patches’ or ‘Bug’ fixes since the April 15 update and this issue has not been resolved.

Am I alone in caring? This DE & the rest of the chain are quite useful for getting Dailies out of the way quickly. As a casual player I’d like to get on with basic PvE exploration and general fun game play. A quick end to the daily is a bonus.

This is still not functioning. There has been 1 Major update and several ‘Patches’ or ‘Bug’ fixes and yet this issue has not been resolved. Just pumping this back up in case it got lost in the fog.

On the Crystal Desert server this DE has stopped functioning since the March 11 patch. The DE is never active. But the NPCs are standing by the gate waiting to receive the eggs from players. But the ‘lures’ are not available to activate and the nests are not available to open/attack because the DE is not active. So nothing can be brought to the NPCs.

Normally when the DE is not active, the NPCs are engaged in banter further from the gate to the cave. At that spot the primary NPC is a Vendor when the DE is not active.

I had sent an ingame Bug Report several days ago. But since no fix was done in the post reporting patches, I thought I’d post it here.
