Dunno if anyone else has bothered with this quest yet, but BLEH.



NE corner: Tanglewood Corpse outpost

Just a bit west from my current position is the Arborstone mission outpost.

Problem is, how does one get up at that cliff, Lift Operator Chutz (something) is up there as is a horde of Branch-mobs BUT there seems to be no way up there. Mapping over to Tanglewood isn't an option as the quest resets itself by doing so.. Only way would be to find a way up there.. But I have no clue, I've hugged the northern wall, and I haven't noticed a bridge above either. :|

Anyone solved this mystery?

EDIT:

The mystery is that this quest is currently BUGGED, there is no path from the area above, to area below. Apparently only way is to start from Altrumm Ruins, and head north, and die near the cliff and HOPE you get rezzed at the shrine south of Tanglewood Corpse.

I'm not bothering with this quest for now atleast, spent too much already trying to find the unexisting path. Do they even test these quests?

EDIT+:

Filed a bug report about this.

An assassin could just port up or down, as long as you're willing to leave the rest of your party behind

Just did that quest (I mean, I tried to do it)....... it took me hours, then I tried to reach the last point which is obviously unreachable. I am so pissed right now, I'm not gong to do everything again....... I'll file a bug report tomorrow, too

And Kaguya: You have tried the exact same ways like me. My mini map was looking the same......

I spent hours, went everywhere in this area, even tried getting the unreachable one first and mapping to the area to finish, but u just start over.

This quest is gay. Im really pissed that they would make a runaround for NOTHING. just like Tryia chars going to cantha starter island, whats the freakin point, they can do nothing there, why did i wast a whole day trying to uncover that island with my Tryia chars.

Fix it anet, and give everybody who spent hours on it, for free.

I also tried this quest, spent almost 2 hours on it, wish I had found this thread before I started.


I also sent in a bug report, lets see what, if anything, they do.

*edit* All they do is say post on the forums and we will assume this issue is resolved if we dont hear from you in 72 hours. Well I had already posted in the "Official Bugreport" thread in Riverside Inn and started a new thread in Sardelac Sanitarium, we'll see.

I spoke with a few people in-game who had this problem - I wish I hadn't wasted so much time trying to do this quest when I could have earned enough faction for a piece of armor on the other quests. :\

Well, this answers my question of how the hell to do this quest.

yeah i found this problem aswell and i was ready to smash the fricken computer!

however, i have found a way that you can complete this quest, it is as follows:

1. form party in aberstone, talk to the gatekeeper to gain entery into the valley.

2. once you are in the valley run DIRECTLY north (there is a little hill, run ot the top of it) your charting quest will be updated (you just found that prick of a spot!)

3. Now agro both groups of wardens and let them kill your entire group.

4. You will be resurrected at a shrine on the other side of the impassable caven.

5. continue to find the remaining 4 spots!

A lot of questers including myself have already posted on threads here with screenies about the bug a couple of days ago, so far it has not been fixed.

To check if it's still broken simply go to tanglewood exit and if there is a green marker there still its broken.

You can still go explore the other areas at least. Now I just got to wait for the bug to get fixed to finish this bore of a quest (still not as bad as Beak of Darkness though...hate that #@$%er).

I have no desire whatsoever to do this quest. It sounds way too involved for me. And the fact that you can't do it in parts is painful. You pretty much just have to do it straight through right? Every time I go back to a town it resets the numbers of places left to visit.

Well they finally fixed it in todays update, it was listed in the fixed various bugs in the following missions section, I checked the star and they did move it, so I'm off to go finish the last quest I have left.

No wonder. I thought it was just me who spent 3 hours trying to end that stupid quest. Even if they fixed it I realy have no desire to run that whole mission AGAIN.
