Fafurian Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Now not only do we have to reset the instance every time we wipe..but tonight we finally had north fully solved and south had 3 solved, then we went to hit the console and the dang thing wouldnt spin, hit it 4 times (2 on each) and it just wouldn't move. I'm unsubing next week if this encounter is still bugged..I don't need this frustration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your 4th wheel on either side only has 1 spin required to finish, you can click the console but the wheel won't spin. exit area and reset zone to get a new wheel combo. How do people not read this by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The developers have said that the biggest concerns to them in this game are fixing barriers to progression, story missions, etc. Well this is a huge *** barrier to raiding progression and it needs to be fixed TWO WEEKS AGO.

Exit area and reseting takes an extra 5-10 minutes tops to reclear. Not a barrier to progression especially when it's the last trash you have to clear in the entire zone.

Fenwich Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Resetting the instance doesn't fix the problem. Edited February 8, 2012 by Fenwich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merraith Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Resetting the instance doesn't fix the problem. Yes it does. You will get a new combination for the wheel. We've had to do it twice in the last 5 weeks and next time in 4th wheels were not 1 spin to solve. Skipped most of the trash, just cleared 2 packs and a pather or 2...took an extra 5-10 minutes tops. Solve south first as usual, get our loot. No one is saying there isn't a bug, but there is a simple workaround for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judgeholden Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 solve the southern pylon first on each row. Did this for the last 3 weeks without encountering the bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keii Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 We encountered a new version of this bug. Basically the thing bugged as normal, and when we tried to reset the phase, the option was missing. We tried reforming the group, but the option was still missing. We could NOT reset the phase, so the pylons remained bugged and we couldn't progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan_Lore Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Also new bug where the pylons would randomly reset to beiginning and had to solve again. Then they would bug again. This was most certainly new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpatalik Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 We started HM EV last week only. This bug was really pain in the ***. I can say we spend over 10h+ over this puzzle since last week with bug happening each time. This week, we started again HM EV and it got bugged again. I don't know how this bug is still on live game after this much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taybul Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Just reporting in to confirm that on 8-man HM and 16-man normal we let south solve the puzzle first (no vent coordination for simultaneous clicking or anything, north just waited until they got the message saying south was solved and was waiting for them) and also made sure that the 4th wheel required more than 1 spin on both pylons. The encounter didn't bug out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinaa Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 They rather fix some minor bug on Ilum that has been around for like 2 days instead of fixing any operation or flashpoint bug that has been around for weeks and months, some so severe it would even keep you from progressing at all. But this may be the goal here? Up until this week I always thought, well the game is new, bugs will be there, just have to wait, but it actually gets worse every patch...

Majority of people doesn't raid yet, illum reaches out to far more players. EV has been bugged since weeks, you could easily clear the whole instance in ~45min if it wouldnt bug the **** out. Its pathetic that with each bug fix more bugs are emerging. Well, i am already unsubbed, but i bought the game for 3 months so:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopi Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Just thought I'd confirm what others have posted. Our nightmare ops team suffered with this bug for the past few raids till someone found out about the 'NSSN or SSSS' system. Although its an unnecessary bug to have to deal with every EV raid, I can confirm that if you simply follow 1 of those 2 systems (allowing south to finish first everytime etc), the pylons wont lockup.
