Ypogi Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 While wrapping up the final stages of the current Ziost quests, I began finishing off all the quests for the achievements that grant the plant as well as the mount. The "Time to Move" achievement did not apply, and the only reason I can think as to why is because NONE of the civilians would run away after killing the guards. I tried doing this quest while running the special speeder quest. This was before entering the tower. It would not work....SO....I tried logging out and back in. Nothing... I then tried doing the quest after finishing the tower, but I did not leave the zone yet. The quest would not complete and I could not gain the achievement. Any word on being able to get this reset, or possibly granted? I find it a little bit ridiculous that a bug like that should keep me, and others who may have had an issue with it, from getting a nice decoration and mount. Thanks!

Banthabreeder Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I just posted something about this. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=809896 Were you on a scoundrel? If not, which class were you. If you have already done the whole quest line, do you have an alt you can run? Perhaps then you can get the achievement.

undiess Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I am getting this on my Jugg. Screenshot here shows the civilian as target, no possessed imperials alive and i hovered over a dead possessed imperial to have the ui window poup showing that the possessed imperial is dead. top right shows missions and i'm currently on dead center.. Annoying bug as this happened on the Assassin as well. http://i.imgur.com/XDZAFaN.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koichi Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I have this issue too. I can't get those bloody civilians to move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmdanger Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Seeing this on both my sniper and shadow. Do not think it is related to class. The one civilian who's being Force-choked won't even come down when you kill the guy choking her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I refuse to make my Trooper continue the story quest until this is fixed (already missed the achievement on my Jedi Knight. I wasn't happy).

Zharik Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 That one was a pain in the rear... I hate to say this but just kill everything in the area until the achievement/quest updates. IIRC some groups worked and some did not, so camp the one that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralTiphis Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Is this really still broken, that's kinda sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsycheEros Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Still broken. I've been camped for 2 days and no fix. Looking at the string of people and the length of time leaves you to wonder if they even care about fixing this broken piece of code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonesquiff Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) This is still bugged but I did manage to pop the achievement today. There was only one civilian in the area that was counting towards this for me. Before zoning into the green quest area look off to the left. Near some tables were 2 possessed enemies, one of which was force choking a civilian. Killing these 2 freed him and he ran off. This was the only civilian I saw that was not just standing around. Killing mobs around those did not work. I just sat and camped the 5 rescues in the same spot. They were on about a 4 minute timer. Hope this helps others going for the achievement!

Carsti Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 I now read two threads about this quest and yes, it seems to be bugged for most, but not everyone or maybe it's fixed. But I have to admit that I have not even a clue where to get this darn quest? Walk in activated? Some data-pad laying around? Quest guy, but on vacation? Or simply rescue the first civilian and go on from there, because yes, that didn't work for me at all... Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bonus quest and should pick up automatically the first time you rescue a civilian and it actually counts it. As of last I played this area about two weeks ago, there are a few civilians that can usually be rescued, but it's still hit or miss. The one on the People's Tower entrance that's being Force choked seems to be most reliable now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keraejis Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I would venture to say there are not enough civilians as well. Compound that with some that do not get 'saved' when you rescue them and you could be trying to get this achievement for weeks. I ran around the area for hours not finding one that counted and the zone population was rather small at the time. Though, still, nothing lived for long and was extremely difficult to tag guards. I didn't even know there was an achievement, I just wanted to complete the mission. Unless this is the very meat and potatoes of the achievement but if that's the case, make it a PvP objective and flag everyone free-for-all like Outlaws Den (optional of course). That way, you can at least kill the other players who 'steal' your camp or kill the campers for the spawn. -or- make them free tags where anyone can tag the guards and get credit for the achievement.

minos Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I've killed every spawn where a civilian is located with 4 different character, I have reset the quest multiple times, I have zoned in and out ... but nothing has worked. I have messaged support, but don't think they will be providing any actual support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wingrave Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Reset it, redid it several times, still missing fibnal piece. Have now moved on with the hope that an alt can attain the achi..but what if I were the type of player that only had one char? this would piss me off more than it already has..There have been so many silly little bugs since 4.0 went live.and the maintenance done since seems to have not fixed any of them as yet! Dissapointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatT Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 The bug is fixed! Xd Not anymore. Can't get it tonight. Did it successfully on another server. This one, no go. This is my fifth try. I figured I'd do it the exact same order and way that I did it on the one that worked. But nooo...... So bioware, yet another bug. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaedelyia Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Don(t want to bring back old thread from the ground, but it's still not fixed. Even the force-chocked guy didn't count for me. It wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't something requested for an achievement. An achievement granting a reward, mind you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaedelyia Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Okay so I got an answer from the Customer Service and they're basically saying: "Suck it up, you're screwed". They told me roughly : "Try to leave the zone and get back in, try to reset the quest and try again, and if it doesn't work, too bad, we're out of options, we can only help you if it's story mission, not side quests". Obviously nothing worked so there's now for me 3 achievement and two reward that are not obtainable. What is really suprising is that GM are not willing to update a simple bugged side-quest for you. That's a new one in a MMO. And that sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was completely bugged on one character for me, and partially bugged on another. The latter, I wound up having to basically "farm" one specific point in the area, as it was the only point out of all the civilian + hostiles spawns that actually contributed to the number of civilians saved. Took around an hour or so whilst I was doing the custom speeder parts & AA-Turrets before entering the start of the final story section for pre-destruction Ziost.

I had the same problem you had on one of my characters, and then on another there were three of us standing around with the problem, and it turned out that only one person from the Republic was getting credit, but if he got credit, the Imperials in the area were getting credit too. So we had two Imp players, just sort of following this Pub around, letting him claim the spawns and miraculously getting credit even though we'd tried the same spawns ourselves earlier. We weren't even involved in one of the fights - just "within range" of his fight. How does that even happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyleslater Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Force choked dude seemed to be the only one working for me. But none worked before I had dead center advanced to the "Gain access to the upper level" point. I suspect if I had moved the quest along a bit more of the civilians might work. I am not sure though.
