Nothing is more annoying than planning to level up in professions tasks in the client and not seeing anything but Rare tasks...

It has been happening more lately and now, logging in and out, changing shards, etc does not solve anything.

This seems this old bug has (re)occured since the last patch today. Does anyone have this issue as well?

Is there a workaround?

PS: it happens ALSO on the gateway!

Thanks!:mad:

    Finish a profession task and collect the result. Fixed.

    I find it also helps to force-refresh the page (Ctrl+F5).
    It is a webpage after all, and when they post updates to it, your local (cached) copy may differ and cause issues like these.

    It is the same issue with the client...

    Finishing a task seems to fix it... Unfortunately, that took some time and I still had 3 open slots...

    Starting and then canceling one of the rare tasks works too.

    The problem seems to pop up one of two ways.

    Viewing tasks from both the website and ingame within a short timespan

    Viewing tasks from two different zones ingame within a short timespam.

    I've learned to do this as well, but recommend you pop in to Leadership to check for a task that doesn't consume resources - just in case you get stuck with it. Last night I ended up making a helm I didn't really want because I was unable to cancel. In-game button brought up a confirmation but the task didn't actually cancel, and Gateway didn't even display the cancel button. Bug report already submitted.

    Incidentally, starting a rare task without cancelling it is also sufficient to force display of common tasks.

    Same i lost all my available tasks but rare as well.

    Change character, same thing.

    Relogged. Exited completely. Tried from gateway. Did the task then cancel.

    nothing works for me.

    Will try to force finish a task once i have one that is not a crazy amount to rush and see if that helps. Will report back.

    Please hire a dbase specialist, test the queries on a congested network or over a realistic internet connection & resolve all the issues with this not returning valid results, only rare results or none at all & taking 15-20 minutes to time out & allow a user to re-request the data!

    Waiting on this to return a valid set of results is worse than watching paint dry!!!

    The key here is DO NOT TEST on the local network unless it has a very high congestion! TEST on a realistic 'end-user' internet connection!

    This is already stated to be fixed in the Preview Server Patch Notes.
    Only a matter of time before it goes live.

    • The Profession UI will now always properly show all available tasks that match filters, instead of sometimes only showing Rare tasks.
