Major bug at Churrhir Fields. My ascended D/W bought the skill Wild Blow from the Kamadan skills guy for 50 gold and 1 skill point. I changed my profession to D/Mo and talked to one of the expert monk trainers at Churrhir Fields. He taught me Banish. When I went back to town and switched my profession back to D/W by pressing K, I noticed the skill I bought Wild Blow missing.

When I go to the skills guy, it no longer shows up as known and I have to pay 60 gold and one skill point for it.

Now when I switch to D/Mo or D/N, all my secondary profession skills are missing.

I was able to salvage the situation somewhat by talking to the profession changer outside Sunspear Sanctuary and they managed to restore the default secondary profession skills. However any bought skills are gone and that includes Wild Blow.

I sent a bug report to Anet and they have referred it to the Game Support Department. So far no news

I also hope they fix the non-stacking item problem with dyes and other items that happens between items prior NF and items after NF.

Yep that's the quest... and it just happened again on the drunken shauben quest...

perhaps the equation for the double exp calculation works like this:

[2 X Sunspear exp tax (Factor= 50%) X Monster exp] = Double Exp + Sunspear Point per mob killed?

Naturally, i understand that it might be complicated to adjust all the armors affected by this change, and so, what all i am humbly asking for is that the shade of the black dye be fine-tuned so that the result be black on all armor.

It will be well worth it, for those of us who "need our black crack dye", to buy the dye again.

As you will appreciate from the replies i've gotten from my previous message entitled : "What have they done to our black dye!", others feel the same way.

To be honest, the thought of buying armor is somewhat uninspiring now that a stark black is impossible to attain.

Not to mention that there is a case for false advertisment here. The writing on the bottle does state: "Vial of Black dye"....

Other than that, Nightfall is absolutely wonderful! Best chapter yet. Graphics are awsome, gameplay is candy for the brain and the music is riveting.

So now, all we need, is black dye.

. I mean, think about it, what would this little ninja emo look like with a purple hood...

Ty all for your time,

Misery

I dyed my dervish armor black and it seemed to have a purple hue up close but otherwise it seemed very black.btw it was blue/purple now that i think about it.

Something wrong with the "What do you do with a Drunken Shauben" quest. This is my second time attempting to do this quest. Everything goes well until you accually beat it. Once it comes time to walk the clansmen back to Blacktide, they we freeze in place or i get stuck every so often. The /stuck emote doesn't work.

Please anet fix this, i can't move on with the game until i get this quest done. I'm anal lol, but I really dont want to do the 4th mission until I get all quests done on the noob island

I too have had the same problem with that quest. I get about half way back with the drunken crew and they just stop. I have tried 3 times now and same thing has happend. I would like to finish this quest before leaving noob island.

Kou · Oct 31, 2006, 07:43 AM // 07:43

Yeah, I'm having issues with Drunken Shauben, too, and had the same issue with the quest where you're supposed to lead the Vabbi/Istani nobles to the Sunspear ruins place. Had to do the quests at least twice, and haven't been able to complete the Shauben one. It's painful just to GET to the drunkards. I nearly broke down and cried when I got stuck the second time I tried it.

But also, I don't think I saw this (I just skimmed the few recent posts), but camera issues. After the NF update, my camera goes ballistic far too often for me to adjust to it. I'll quote myself from another thread:

Quote:

I try turn my character 90 degrees to the left, s/he ends up looking 90 degrees to the right. Or I stop to cast a spell, and the camera starts spinning like mad all around the character. It's driving me nuts.

Or I'm just running and I stop, and the camera starts jittering spastically. It really hurts my eyes/makes me feel sick. I don't know if it's just my computer or something, but I never had this problem prior to the NF update.

location: Lathenda Bog
quests: To Ask For More, What Do You Do with a Drunken Shauben and that ghost herding with a torch quest

problem: NPCs bodyblock heroes & hench resulting in either an endless rubberbanding lag or everybody getting stuck (having minions makes it worse)

(my temporary solution after restarting the zone 5times was sending hench & heroes ahead to do the fighting and to stay with the NPC herd behind on open areas where they couldn't block me.. though once i got trapped by a warthog)

zola · Oct 31, 2006, 01:27 PM // 13:27

When completing a mission that was 8 players (blacktide?), I got automatically transferred back to an area with a party size of 4. There I lost 2 henches and ended up with a party window of 6 / 4. I was able to leave the outpost with 6 in party.

A minor problem.

Helios Skyfire · Oct 31, 2006, 02:42 PM // 14:42

Another patch tonight - and Attunements are still bugged.

30% + 1

30% + 1

30% + 1

How hard is that?

Still only giving 30%

Has anyone tried the new /stuck command to see if it will warp you to another close spot? In another game I play, they have this command and it will warp you a little no matter if you are stuck or not, but you have to wait at least 30 seconds and have to be sitting since it's not instanced & you could use it as an exploit in pvp.

bete · Oct 31, 2006, 04:50 PM // 16:50

Drunken Shauben mission. Npc's getting stuck and rubber banding make this one impossible to complete.

Talk about frustrating. How about a fix?

teenchi · Oct 31, 2006, 05:21 PM // 17:21

Well here is the reply I got from support regarding my question about dying while resigning from a mission.

Quote:

Thanks for contacting the Guild Wars Support Team.

We appreciate you sharing your concerns with us on this potential issue. We have determined that this issue is not a bug, and that the game is working as designed. If you resign from a mission you will die and that will count as a death.

Marc0 · Oct 31, 2006, 06:26 PM // 18:26

Why not just map travel out instead of resigning?

hidden_agenda · Oct 31, 2006, 07:06 PM // 19:06

I am sure someone's mentioned these, but just to be on the safe side...

BUGS I'VE ENCOUNTERED SO FAR

- Lathenda (sp?) Bog Quest: to bring the spirits back to their grave: there is a bug with the torch. It seems that the NPCs (Heroes + henches + NPC spirits) are all following the torch. Somehow the torch ended up being trapped at a particular location. The NPCs would then not move from that spot. If I pick up the torch and move away, I will teleport back to the "sticky" spot after a certain distance.

- Dyes - there is definitely something wrong with the new dyes, none of them stack with the old dyes. However, depending on the dye, they do not even stack with itself. The new brown dyes are okay and does stack with itself.

Bad judgement call on my part. I normally just map out and for some reason I typed resign for once. DUHHHHH

Pebbles · Oct 31, 2006, 07:36 PM // 19:36

I've noticed a couple of bugs so far in nightfall.

In the quest "the great escape" Even if you clear the map around the fort where the sunspears are held the doors won't open making the quest uncompletable unless you have necrotic traversal.

Another bug exsists with the "XP and promotion blessings" you can get anywhere from the preists.

Namely if you are blessed with then your team gets a wipeout and you respawn at a res shrine from then on
You no longer gain *any* XP or promotion points from killing THAT kind of monster you were previously Blessed to hunt.

The only way to fix this is to re-zone.

A third bug happened today with the mad king if somones inventory is full or get D/Ced the items that person recived drop on the floor of Lions arch I had to give somone there pumpkin mask today because the king dropped it and reserved it for me even though it was customized for somone else.

EternalTempest · Oct 31, 2006, 07:47 PM // 19:47

The one of the mission's after you get off the starting island where you have to free the centaurs from the prisons.

The bonus states free all centaurs (5 total). We freed all of them but got a 0 of 3 overseer's killed? and no bonus at the end.

CKaz · Oct 31, 2006, 08:10 PM // 20:10

well my 50% xp/blessings seem to stack but I wonder if there's a cap
obviously too that could have been 'patched out' (first cpl days I did that)
