Bugs in the Expansion

Aadi - Lost City

There are plenty of threads that have the individual bugs that happened when the expansion came out, but I figured it would be easier for the GMs to see all the bugs if they were in one spot, so they could just consult one list. I'll update this with bugs that people post on this thread, or ones I see on other threads.

For reference, here are the issues listed as being known in the patch notes:

Known Issues:

Tournament Agent - Currently this event is under construction. It will be up and running as soon as possible.

Cho Wenchun NPC for the "Once and Again" marriage quest does not appear.

When opening and closing the Key Binding window using only the Key Binding menu icon, the player is unable to use the keyboard for any functions.

Changing the skin color of the Tideborn will only change the body and not the face.

Selecting the new Widescreen button from the systems window will occasionally crash the client.

Merchant Ironox – Blunted Lance Stand – Rewards in the Sample tab cannot be redeemed.

Some localization in the game may not be correct. This will be fixed in the next update

All the people that I've talked to never had the problem before.

i cant use my tideborn coz when i log in a error message comes up and crashes right away.

its the 2nd day this has been happening. and occured after recieving the timed quest to kill the sketelfish (whateva they r called) at lvl 12. when i went to the area to kill them the error came up and crashed. i have tried 6 times to play but still same error.

Aadi - Lost City

Updated with a few more common errors.

UmbraLupis - Heavens Tear

I'll jsut second that wierd black flashing screen thingy. I updated my drivers and directx- still does it. Don't know how to solve it, but it is REALLY annoying. It stops temporarily if i blindly click the "best performance" button above my portrait.

P.S.- Yeah, I'd also like to have my face color match my body color...x.x

JMillie - Harshlands

I've had the screen blinking probelm and then my whole server crashed because of it.

Vixe - Heavens Tear

There was talk of a rubber band glitch on the tideborn areas as well. I think it was mostly on the cliffs leading to the islands or something. I've heard that it was also going to be looked into as well.

Either way, it'd be nice if the Devs looked into the rubber band glitch, period.

Opalwind - Heavens Tear

i have been called "young man" by npcs at least 5 times already...... is this a glitch or are the npcs supposed to be stupid?

iceman000

That glitch where u log onto ur char and a error pops up happen to my blademaster i had to delete him. all my other chars work expect for him good thing he was still low lvl try sending a ticket to gms

_grimreaper_ - Lost City

i only have had the dissapearing genie bug but my assasin skin colour matches her faceb:cute

Azula - Raging Tide

The Auction House still hasn't a Tideborn section as for daggers!

Also, you can't trade Mysterious pages at PW Boutique Agent for Sin or Psych skill books.

same here, only I made a male psycho - its skin tone is the same all over. however - all tideborns look identical to me. no hair, all same color, etc etc etc. Only difference is clothing/armor/weapons. I'm sure this was addressed elsewhere as well.

not sure if I'd call it a "glitch" or just an oversight on programming, but the PM chatbox behavior has changed. Before the expansion patch, you could hit enter to type on two different lines such as:

1. go here
2. do that

now, the pressing of the enter button no longer allows this function but instead causes the chatbox to loose focus, raining down a barrage of windows as I continue to type. will take some getting used to, but if they were gonna change the behavior of the enter button in the chat box, the least they could have done was make it so that pressing enter would SEND THE MESSAGE.

changing the default keybinding of TAB was a terrible move IMO, and yeah they were nice enough to provide a means to remap it back the way we want it to be. however (and I know this is mentioned above) some key bindings just dont stick after logging out. TAB button being used for cycling the F key bar is one of them, even though I've changed "target monster" to the HOME key (which actually does stay assigned).b:surrender

other than that, things seem pretty decent thus far. time will tell if the lag factor will chill out in Raging Tide city. Its worse there than west arch always was.

Whenever you cast a voodoo or soul of vengence at the same time a mob respawn, you get immediate agro(even if the mob is normally passive). That's quite dangerous.b:shocked Also, someone mentionned that it was hard/impossible to stop channeling your spell as a psychic, which also happened to me a few times...
Also, while auto-pathing on foot back to archo, I had a lv21 tree/dryad deciding he was an agro mob(I had done nothing to it). Not a big deal since I could out-run it with my base speed, but that was quite random.

Updated. b:cute

Chillum - Dreamweaver

I have an issue regarding the Tracking of accepted / current quests.

Before the patch I could select individual quests that I wished to track.

Since the patch, all quests are automatically tracked. When I try to deselect a quest to be tracked. The quest momentarily disappears but immediately reappears.

_________________________________

There also appears to be issues with one or two fo the monsters / world bosses that have since been implemented in the new Tideborn area. Killing them results in no experience, no spirit and no drops.

Ancient Sea Dragon?

Fish monster quest near 619,170

I am willing to bet that there are more issues like this but these are the only ones that I have noticed either directly or via posts in the forums.

Regards.

I can solve this problem for you. Click "Track/Hide All" first, then individually track them. b:victory

One of them is aggressive. Also, sometimes you will find non-aggressive individuals in aggressive species.

However, so I am not totally off-topic, here: in some tideborn locations, my water quality settings get ignored (these places have nasty frame rate issues, though, so this might be a deliberate choice for their initial release, until they can get some underlying problem fixed the right way).

slodoc

actually I have a problem too.. I don't know, whether it's a bug or I just can't fix it, but here's the thing.

Before I was able to switch between shortcut bars pressing TAB, now I have to press V. So-I changed the settings in the "shortcut organizer", but every single time I restart the game, the things reset and I'm back to using V button instead of the TAB as I wanted.. Any help, please? :)b:surrender

That's in my list of bugs that aren't addressed, the keybindings don't seem to stick. So nothing you can do for now b:sad

Everytime I try to play a TB character my screen flashes black and I can't see my character. It's definitely the TB too, because all my other characters play just fine. Urgh and I really wanted to play TB....b:cry

Confound - Harshlands

For some reason with my psychic, the F (F1, F2, etc.) keys don't work as shortcuts when I'm PvPing. I've tried it while holding ctrl and also with protections off. I have to manually click all the skills in order for them to work.

I'm not sure if that is the case for any other of the classes, but they definitely work on my archer.

Chillum - Dreamweaver

I noticed that with the new quests from the Tidebron Elder or Emerald Moon that items obtained for their quests appear in the regular items section rather than in the Quest Items section as they have, for the most part, previously done in quests (E.g. World Quest items appear in the Quest Items section).

I don't have any specific examples at the moment as i've now already completed those quests as far as I can but anyone who is doing them or has yet to do them could quote the specifics.

Pretty minor in scope but i'd thought I should mention.

Regards.

i go with the blinking thing. i have a friend who was playing the game but it started flashing so he went back to char selections but it was still happening and then it crashed. why does the tideborns have so many problems?

i agree. i love the tideborn expansion actually, but the little things like that make it a pain to play. i can't go anywhere without getting stuck on something, and i'm used to jumping around things or running through them to get around faster, but that just delays it more. i would LOVE for that to get fixed, as well as the skin issue going on... and the eyeshadow was disappointing </3 i love making my characters have super weird makeup oh well, i'm sure it'll all get fixed sooner or later b:surrender

and thanks for posting b:victory it's a lot easier checking this than a million other threads for the issues b:pleased

Serrinity - Sanctuary

Don't forget the infamous hair glitch where some hair styles have changed to another previously available hair style (the id number is switched, I think) and also some hair styles that characters had have been changed and the previous style is no longer available from the customization menu.

And great idea putting it all in one thread. I was thinking about doing that too.

There are also a very large number of typos in the TB quests, especially ones that tell you in the NPC text to kill a monster but the name is incorrect, probably the name from the MY-EN version. When the quest shows up in your quest window, it's correct, just not in the NPC text. I remember this happening with the quest to kill the flaming and glacial walkers, but I think there was another quest or two with the same problem.

Also, I'm not sure if this is a glitch or it's supposed to be like this, but when fighting non-aggressive monsters in the TB area, sometimes when I kill a monster, another one of it's kind will come at me from up to 20+ meters away and begin attacking me. This is not the same as some aggressive monsters. I have seen aggressive monsters in FBs and also in other areas that will attack you if you attack another monster near them. However, this is not the same. Those monsters always attack if you attack one near. These only attack sometimes. And often they don't attack until I've killed the first monster. A few times they were ones that respawned the very second I killed the first monster and they began attacking. These also attack from a ways away, so far that I'm pretty sure that even if they were ALL aggressive monsters that I would not be close enough to aggro them.

o ya me forgot to add....
