We're currently investigating a fix for this bug. We do not know yet how close we are to solving it so we don't have an estimate of when it may get released.

We’re aware of this bug where the defiance bar gets stuck during the 60% and 40% phases of the Soo-Won fight at the end of the Dragon’s End meta event, and we have a bug fix coming next week!

It's likely just a case of a bulk backend process that accidentally reverted a file that wasn't supposed to be changed. If you have the info I can pass it along.

The demon situation is the main plot--the scaffolding of the story. The Commander's trauma is their character arc. I hastily typed out my answer between meetings and VO sessions the other day.

Was it a NPC in Lake Doric at the lumberyard?

Because when that map came out I SWORE I heard an NPC say that line and I couldn't believe it. So I told some other people and they didn't believe me. I said where I thought I heard it and sat around for HOURS waiting for the NPC to say it again.

Everyone thought I was crazy and eventually so did I, but I guess I wasn't?

I think it was an asura outside Rata Sum. But it was a long time ago so I may be wrong. LOL

We've disabled the Rotate and Switch Seats skills of Skiffs and a few other multi-character seats (benches and stools in major cities) while we're investigating issues with them.

This part of the update didn’t make it to the build. We’re fixing that in two weeks, and you’ll then be able to select the Dragon and Ritualist attribute combination in Raid and Fractal weapons. So, hold on to your ascended ring for a little bit longer!

What a stupid change. Hearing someone as gruff and serious as Rytlock say “clusterfudge” is so f**king goofy and childish.

It's a bug. The original, processed line cut him off with static so it implied...the other F word. A bulk processing import must've caught a wrong file or two and paved over the old one. It's been logged and sent over for review.

A classic line from Season 3.

Thank you for you answer. I'll do that, but since the "Crane"-thing, which I reported a year ago (as far as I can remember, I won't be mad if you prove me wrong) has never been fixed, I don't have the feeling that somthing happens... but I'll try!

Is the "Crane" thing also a localization bug? (Loc is a separate department so I'm out of the loop on any issues there.)

I really hate to bother you, but since you are here and talk about minor details in the voicefiles - could you tell me if it's just a bug or intentional, that half of the voiceovers for the german version of the new story update are missing? For example Rama and the Norn male character are silent during the first chapter while Gorrik is fine, other players are missing more lines in later chapters.

Just asking because I want to be sure if it's just bugged or somehow abandoned, since - sadly - bug reports about bad translations seem to be ignored since EoD release (example: Crane (the bird) = "Kranich", not "Kran")

If that's happening, it's a bug. Can you submit that via the in-game tool, please? Thanks.

Quick update: we plan to update the game browser to Chromium Embedded Framework in two weeks. There shouldn’t be any visible impact on the player experience.

Whatever they use, it's working. Ever notice how soft Rytlock's fur is?

Thanks for reporting this to us. As we explained in the blog post, we wanted to include all the old items. But it's a lot, and we missed this one in the process. We plan to bring it back in two weeks! EDIT: note that this change to the Black Lion Statuette Vendor is permanent!

I don't, but I bet it sounded great!

That's so much weirder then, if this isn't intended, since the "bug" would be swapping out a single audio file from a years-old story chapter lmao

Stranger things have happened. We once had an NPC say, "I'm getting too old for this sh*t!" make its way live. That was a fun bug to hotfix.

Is that not happening? We usually can specify a response based on PC choice at character creation. There might be the occasional line when an NPC uses the encompassing "them" for simplicity, but I'm pretty sure there are gender specific lines re: the PC in this patch. Do you have an example?
