[Bug Request] Straits of Devastation Dynamic Event Chains

#1 - Sept. 10, 2012, 2:28 p.m.

Hi everyone!

We’ve received numerous reports regarding blocked/stuck events in the “Straits of Devastation” map, and we’d appreciate any additional information you can provide regarding them so that we can investigate further and get some fixes in, if necessary. If you’ve seen a blocked event in the Straits of Devastation, please provide the following information:

• Meta Event Name
• Name of stuck Dynamic Event
• Objective text for the stuck event: i.e. is it an escort? x/y enemies wave that doesn’t spawn creatures?
• Date when you encountered the block: We want to verify that these issues are still current and occurring. If you have a chance to jump to the Straits of Devastation to confirm it’s still blocked, that’s even better!
• Screenshot (if possible)

Thank you very much for your help!

First off I wanted to thank everyone who has posted detailed information on the various events in Straits of Devastation.

One thing to note:

Additional Details:The event chain involving recovering at artifact in lone post loops, we get an event to defend the post(Defend the Lone Post from the Risen hordes), shortly after an escort spawns(Escort the Pact squad to the conservatory) , another event at the end of the escort to kill a Veteran risen wizard(Kill the Risen Wizard guarding the conservatory) . After a few minutes the event to defend Lone post occurs again and the cycle repeats.

This is actually the design of the events described. What could be indicative of a bug is in escorting reinforcements from the Lone Post to Pact Rally Point. The reinforcement escort event should start any time Capture or Defend events at Lone Post succeed.

With the following exceptions:
- The south reinforcements event is already in progress (look for a shield icon on the map heading from Lone Post to Pact Rally Point)
- The south reinforcements is already completed successfully (Temple of Balthazar Meta status will say “Reinforcements from the southern invasion have arrived at the Pact rally point.”)
- The Temple of Balthazar Meta event is already pushing towards the temple

If none of the above is true, and the south reinforcement escort event is not starting please make note of the full Temple of Balthazar status text in any future reports.

Thank you for the reports!
