Fire Catcher Contest Bug

edited September 2013 in Bug Reports (PC)
The announcement for the contest is displayed
The Fire Mephits show up and can be captured
However,
When X is pressed, the dialog says that there is no event instead of the current standings
There is no announcement when the contest finishes, the Mephits just vanish.
The quest for participating in the contest remains in the quest list.

    No, it's on Mount Hotenow. I don't fully remember the contest for the pirate skyhold so you might want to do a post for that as well.

    Same problem here. The contest counter do not show the actual progress of catched fireflies and your rank too.

    put this on the forum the other day. the firecatcher counter doesnt show, and the report just errors out, so you cant complete the corresponding quest.
    however, if you keep an eye on bottom right of screen when the even timer ends, and you have filled some jars up - you DO get the rewards for taking part

    I've found that this is true; if you have captured some, you get rewards despite the fact that there is no indicator, and the report does not work. I've also noticed, however, that even after you get your rewards, it doesn't remove the captured mephits from your inventory. This could be a pretty big exploit if it counts old ones and new ones each time, as you'd just have more and more of them.

    lots of the event like this leave items behind in your inventory, sometimes they take them out 1 at a time hours later, seems to be know pattern on that, but yes i think my first thought was, hmm exploit? when i first noticed it on the mushroom collection. but they don't carry over so doesn't exploit on that front

    This appears to still be an issue? Any updates?

    ditto -- same bug. Just a moment ago. I captured many, got the indicator that no event was taking place, press X to continue, and I had runestones in inventory that weren't there before. Quest still in my quest log and incomplete.

    Experienced this as well yesterday.

    I think the problem lies in the fact that your farther into mt hotenow.

    When i was in the second questing area the notification didn't work, and no counter and such.
    But when i walked back to the starting quest area it did work, and all mephits i cought already where in the counter.

    So i think that in the background it does keep track of it, only the event trigger is bound to the starting zone in some way.

    Just tonight got to Hotenow, and twice I've encountered this bug. Sure would be nice if it was addressed and fixed!

    Yup, still a problem. At least it appears to be solely graphical.
