Finished one Dungeon Delve, but never got MY chest...

It is the second time now, there is a chest in there close by the exit, but it is not active...

Every in the party must have gotten it because they left the party, but I stayed there, roaming around and try to find it... Eventually, some errands unkilled monsters in the final area spot me and kill me, I respawn by the final room, go to the exit, still the visible chest there is uninteractable...

I would expect after 45mn, I deserved it.
Duh?

Did I miss something?

Thanks

    Just confirming, is there a "chest unlocked" notice at the side bar?
    Suggestion: Thank-you package to include Celestial Coin rewards
    This is an open beta. Start treating it like one.

    Also, make sure the Dungeon Event is currently active. You can run a dungeon whenever you want, but you'll only get a reward from the chest when the event is active (same for Skirmishes).

    That is not true. You only have to start the dungeon with the event active to unlock the chest. So if you start running a dungeon 5 minutes before the dungeon starts, you won't get the chest if you complete the dungeon with the event active. On the flipside, if you start the dungeon during the last 5 minutes of dungeon delves, you will still get the chest even if it takes you 3 hours to complete.

    This but, there seems to be a problem with it randomly going away after it ends, has happened to me 3 times so far.

    Aha! This is good to know. I was always careful to finish the skirmish/dungeon before the event finished just in case.

    Skirmishes won't give anything after event ends - dungeons only need to be started on the event. The phrasing is kind of clear on the events themselves.

    So I thought the same thing too. The chest was unlocked at the end but it had no loot and just said, something to the effect of "Congratulations, you completed the dungeon delve" but it had no loot in the confirmation window. I caught in the corner of my eye that I received a blue piece of equipment though (its so quick, you barely notice due to you looking at the quest completion window from the chest. I didn't even see this piece before nor did I roll on anything but its a Class piece of equipment specific to your class. Check your pack before you click on the chest and see if this is the case. I am not 100% sure but that's what I have noticed and figured that's how its working at the moment.

    Like he said, you'll get a pop up but it doesnt actually show the item on that, it just goes into your bags. BUT to get the chest (you'll see it every dungeon, just cant open it) you have to have STARTED the dungeon during the DD event. If done correctly it will say "chest unlocked" below your minimap. Another thing I've seen happen is if you get disconnected after the event ends, but still in the dungeon, even though originally you had the chest unlocked, it goes away when you reconnect and you wont be able to loot the chest.

    That's right, there's no separate chest for your specific item. It just throws the item into your inventory along with whatever else is in the big chest at the end. Check your inventory before and after opening the chest and you will see.

    That's reassuring that I wasn't dreaming and it happened to others too.

    Well... this is a beta after all, and I hope they will find time to fix that one cause it happened the last 2 times out of 4 I played a dungeon delves.

    Thanks all!

    Until game is live, this is still called an open beta... no?

    The only change needed to make the game "live" right now is to replace "open beta" with "live" on the front page. PWE even lists NW as live in their website :D

    But you'll need to buy the pre-order. That's rate limiting for a lots of players.

    I can't imagine going live while it is still patching at that frequency.

    On the other end, I got already more hours with this "open-beta" that I got with other full games... I actually spend more time in the foundry than playing the game... Maybe I'll publish my quest one day...if it ever stops growing ;)

    Also if you start a dungeon and then half-way through the Dungeon Delves event starts then you can log-ff then log back in and it will count that as starting a dungeon while event is active.
