Most frustrating time for Errors? - Guild Wars Forums

aismailuk · Sep 01, 2005, 11:35 AM // 11:35

Hello,

I was playing through a mission a while back and had to keep enemies from killing a Ghostly Hero for 10 mins (can't remember the name of the mission) along with a PuG. We got through all the way to near the end with only about 1:30 left on the clock when there was suddenly an error7 message that popped up and promptly chucked me out of the game back to the login screen!

I was just wondering when everyone elses most frustrating Guild Wars errors have happened and if you missed out on any good drops as a result?

p.s> If this is in the wrong section, apologies in advance

Dunes of Despair is the mission you are referring to. This happens to me all the time. If its not a random Err=7 then its my crappy connection locking up and deciding not to work at the most crucial point in a mission. What's my excuse? Rotted cable that neither the cable company nor the complex owner will fix.. Yippie!

Here's mine. I was working on clearing UW for the heck of it. I had cleared five of the six statues. The two monks both err=7 and were gone... They spent the next half an hour on vent apologizing, but it sort of ended four hours of work... (and we were so darn close)

One of these days I will finally clear that darn Terror Web/Ele area and see that quest.

reinstall?

I was in Dunes the other day. Decided to consolidate my inventory with a guildie ... materials and such. I started throwing everything on the ground. I started from my bags, then belt pouch, etc. When I got to my regular inventory I couldn't drop anything else. I thought maybe there was too many piles right there? I tried to move. No moving. I tried picking up stuff thinking I was blocked in, lol.

I finally realized what happened and hoped that the autosave was at least 30 seconds before the disco. No luck.

Seeing as I was only with one guildie and henchies dont steal, I didnt fear my goods falling into the wrong hands. What I did fear was losing some items because of him running out of space.

So thru guild chat, with him still in Dunes, we sorted thru the stuff I left in the sand and ditched some of the useless items. I got back all my collector materials though.

Man, I'm gonna miss those votive candles.

i had a sweet group in the tombs and we were in the second round and had only 1 enemy left to kill on this 470 ranked team and then BANG ERROR 7!!! We were using TS and I have never heard so many cusses in my life.

in the three months I've played Guild Wars I've never gotten an error....Programmers worst nightmare = end users

Happened to me too on the Thunderhead Keep Mission, but, I didn't whine, just logged back in and promptly got in another group and we finished it. In the real world chit happens, in the game world it does as well, get used to it, murphy likes to play games also.

JMFD · Sep 01, 2005, 07:31 PM // 19:31

Thunderhead keep.

We'd defeated the mursart boss, and the group had just spotted Dorian.

Err=7

GRR!!

I was in the FoW. Best PuG i'd ever got in there and Favour wasnt going to last long (I'm European).

we were on the forgemaster quest, furthest i've ever got in Fow, and I start getting lag. then i seem to have recovered, but i can't pick up stuff, then everyone starts speaking to me. my replies don't come up and they decide i must be afk. I run around some more, take screen shots of me next to some bad guys with them not attacking me. I run about with my PuG but they can't see me, I try picking my stuff up and talking to NPCs to no avail, then about 5 mins later, Err=7.

Got up to 3rd stage in tombs, when I loaded the stage, error:7 pops up.

Regards, Ashleigh.
