Bug Type: Questline

Expected Behaviour: Upon completion of the 'Mane Attraction' quest that requires kills against a raging Sprestruck Embermane using CBs, Warpike and Repeaters, that the game then tells me to talk with an NPC to initiate the next quest.

Actual Behaviour: Upon completion of the quest, no NPC !/? marker is appearing and I don't have the next quest available in the quest log. I've gone around all the Ramsgate NPCs and non of them provide a means to initiate the next quest. The 'Mane Attraction' questline has effectively disappeared for me.

The journal info for the Flameborne and Sporestruck variants was unlocked without me needing to revisit those behemoths.

Quest Progression

I expected to unlock the strike at the root quest and finish the story

I completed everything else and still can’t even unlock it.

It’s been a week and i’ve tried everything i can think of so i really need someone’s help.

• In-Game Name: dpawson
• Type of Bug: Escalation Amps
• Expected behavior: Having reached level 25 Frost Escalation, be offered 4 amps after each completed round
• Actual behavior: I am regularly offered fewer than 4. Most frustrating, it is reasonably common that I'm offered 0 amps. And until you select an amp, the vent doesn't appear to launch you to the next island. So when this happens, I'm just stuck and can't progress.
• Screenshot/Clip: Can probably provide this tomorrow.
• Reproduction Rate/Steps: When I play solo, I've never been offered fewer than 3 amps. When I started duoing with my kid, it became more common. I was surprised the first time I was offered a single amp, and even more surprised when the next round offered me 0 amps. This has since happened pretty commonly. If I had to guess, I'd say 1 in every 4 or so runs. I've seen people here speculate that it happens when you keep getting the same buff from Linnea and you've chosen all the possible options. That isn't it. In a crowning blow today, I had a round where after the very first round fighting a frost Skarn, I was offered 0. Game over.
• System Specs: Playstation 5
• Geographic location: California, USA

EDIT: I should clarify I didn't get to play much today, so for all I know this no longer happens in 1.5.4. But I saw no mention of this issue in the open issues list, so I'd guess not.

Type of bug: Audio, UI

Expected behaviour: turning music slider all the way down removes music

Actual behaviour: music continues to play at full volume during aether surge, completely ignoring the slider

Reproduction steps: turn music slider all the way down and go into an aetheric surge

Originally posted by BitingChaos

Oh wow, I just realized that was happening to me.

I'd go to the crystal and it would sometimes show me just 2 amps to pick from (instead of 3 or 4). I thought it was something new with the Escalation.

Yes, I'm sorry. To be more precise, it's about dragging.

Components inside a scroll-pane used to delegated onHold(e.src=mouse2) to parent.scroll(yaxis.direction). Those are all gone. Examples are Any view containing a scroll pane (Shop, Loadout, Cells dialog within Loadouts view, ..)

To say it so, dragging itself was just a welcome workaround. The underlying problem is, that you dont carry over scroll events from a focused component to its parent scroll pane. You did so for drag however, and aren't anymore.

On a sidenote: Scrolling lacks acceleration. Means you will have to scroll multiple full circles to see your full list of power cells. (That's why drag got important for PC at first.) - If you ever take on this part: Smooth scrolling for onHold(e.src=mouse2)(think browsers) is awesome, and only a tiny step over the stated issue

Expected Behavior: not hitting invisible walls
Actual Behavior: Hitting invisible walls
Reproduction Rate: In Hunting Grounds for sure, not sure if in Escalation, because I solo Escalations always

Type of Bug: Behemoth/Quest

Since the newest patch, it seems like the Deepfrost Skarn drops are broken. I'm currently in the middle of the Cold Stone Armory V quest, which requires you to get 10 deepfrost browscales from aethercharged ice skarns. For the last 5 times I've attempted this (I am stuck at 9/10 btw...) I've damaged only the head of the behemoth and only while it is aethercharged and have gotten 0 drops. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be a guaranteed drop from the first 9 I got. If not, then it's an even more tedious quest than I originally thought.

Type of Bug: Cosmetic

Expected Behavior: Equipped cosmetic armor to show correctly on the female/type 2 model

Actual Behavior: Most of these issues were fixed in 1.5.4 but these were missed. The Seismic Flak Jacket and the Barbaric Treads both have missing mesh on the female/type 2 model.

Reproduction Steps: Equip and check in Ramsgate on the female/type 2 model.

The image on the right shows the Seismic Flak Jacket as it should appear from the Dauntless Switch launch trailer.

Bug: Loading

EXPECTED: get to Ramsgate or leave Ramsgate in a reasonable amount of time

ACTUAL: takes 5+ minutes from log in to get to Ramsgate, leaving Ramsgate to airship take 2+ minutes, returning to Ramsgate take 5+ minutes or times out. Also lots of lagtime on HG when loading menu from supply crate to change build.

Will look into it right away!

I don’t have any main quests left to do and I think it may be a bug. I played dauntless briefly after it released on Xbox and now that I’m playing again I seem to have no main quests left to do. My friends who started the game recently (and are even ahead of me in level now) have main quests available and I don’t. Is this a bug?

Flying in the air chainblades glitch. This happens to me once every 2 escalations on average. I was using chain blades in my escalation and using reaper’s dance and it launched me far in the air and canceled the attack for no reason. It might have to do with behemoth collision. In terra escalations it has made me fly up to the treehouses

Originally posted by Erilanne

When you stun or stagger Thrax when it's about to go to his 'shadow realm' it can get stuck outside of the arena and it won't come back. It happened to me two times already, once while playing with a friend and again while playing in a group of four people, we had to exit the game.

Type of Bug: Music
Expected Behavior: No music when music volume is set to 0
Actual behavior: Aether Surge beginning with fauna/small monsters begins with music even if the music volume is set to 0

Type of bug: UI, Quests

Expected behaviour: Switching "objective tracker visible" off should keep the objective tracker hidden.

Actual behaviour: The objective tracker reappears every time combat or a combat area is left, and it stays there. The only way to get rid of it is to press LB or RB to switch quests, which makes it disappear again, but if you don't have any quests tracked then you have to go into the settings menu and switch the option on and off again. Otherwise it will permanently display on the side of the screen unless overridden by the aetheric surge/powerful behemoth tracker in island events.

Reproduction steps: Should just happen if you turn off the setting and go into the hunting grounds. There's been a couple of instances where it will hide normally but most of the time it won't go away.

Originally posted by CleSilver

Ok then sry and nvm it works but considering that depending on the bug you report, you may not have anything to add in some fields it's not intuitive that the button won't appear unless you put smthg in the unneeded fields like : if I want to report that the recipe of a weapon is wrong (like it was for Urska's sword), there is no reason to put anything in "Could you reproduce the problem ? If yes, how did you triggered it ?"

Game crashes/closes when I open Slayer's Path. I'm on PC. Happens most of the times I open Slayer's Path. Doesn't crash in any other areas.

Bug Report: Nintendo Switch Game Crashes

In-Game Name: “Dyluxx Kong”

Type of Bug: Crashes

Expected/Actual behavior: The game crashes, usually when there are more than 1 player in a fight.

Screenshot/Clip: Unfortunately unavailable

Reproduction Rate/Steps: Almost every time it happens, it was when I was fighting a Koshai in a group of 2 or more people. I’ve noticed it happens especially when the Koshai is entering the shock animation for taking enough shock damage. Happens once every day or two (I’ve played every day, at least about 1-2 hours a day, some days more)

System Specs: Nintendo Switch

Geographic location: Australia, Sydney

Session ID: Not known

Thank you for listening

• In-Game Name: bearyfrosty
• Type of Bug: HG/Matchmaking
• Expected behavior: Upon initiating a Hunting Grounds public matchmaking session of the same island that I am present in, I expect the Matchmaking timer to continue to increment until an instance is available for me to join.
• Actual behavior: Upon initiating a Hunting Grounds public matchmaking session of the same island that I am present in, the Matchmaking session unexpectedly terminates without any prompt, or ingame notification, forcing me to reattempt another Matchmaking session.
• Screenshot/Clip: Recorded two clips in the same Aurelic's Refuge instance:
• one with my Bluetooth XBox controller: https://gfycat.com/betterdiligentfantail
• and another with a mouse+keyboard: https://gfycat.com/fondthankfulelephantbeetle
• Reproduction Rate/Steps: I was able to reproduce this issue, but not consistently enough to give what I would consider "reliable" steps (given lack of backend visibility to identify potential patterns). That being said, broadly:
  • 1. While in a Hunting Grounds island instance, open the Menu (Esc on KB+M, Start on XBox)
  • 2. Select Hunt -> Hunting Grounds -> same island you're currently present in -> Call Airship
  • 3. Wait for the timer under Preparing Departure.
  • 4. After ??? time (variable timing ranging from instantaneous to a couple seconds), the MM session will terminate. Rinse and repeat as necessary.
• System Specs: WiFi IPv4 ~100 Mbps up/down, Windows 10 Pro x64, i7-6700HQ, GTX1070M.
• Geographic location: USA, NY Tristate area
• Session ID (manual transcription, sorry if erroneous):

If the Prismatic Resonator item has no use besides heroic dye rumors, then they should make the item stop appearing in chests for players who already have all the heroic dyes. The item takes up a spot in the chest rewards that could have been a bounty token.

any word on the crown of friendship that i earned twice and therefore missed out on something better the second time?

Originally posted by Fruipit

I posted a bug report here and here, and i also did it through the internal bug report system. I never heard back about any of them.

Originally posted by Fruipit

I had it in the link. The first report was made when I looked at my potential rewards and saw it there. The second report was made when I, against all odds, actually unlocked it again. I just want to note that this happened almost a week after the 1.5.3 patch came out, which was the one that fixed this issue.

Originally posted by Fruipit

No, it didn't happen again. So even though I generated my link after the patch, it still gave me a pre-patch link?
