The Cavalry/Defense at the Gate

edited October 2014 in Feature Episodes, Events and PvE Content
I'm currently doing the mission 'The Cavalry' and I am at the point where I am supposed to Repel Vaadwaur attacking the gates. I get there and the mission 'Defense at the Gates' pops up on my tracker telling me to 'Defeat Incoming Vaadwaur' which is already checked off, and 'Recover Wounded Soldiers.'

Yet there are no wounded soldiers anywhere inside the yellow circle. Am I missing something or is the mission bugged and I am just screwed?



Update: Just switched instances and found one where the Vaadwaur were attacking and was able to progress the mission. Still not sure what was wrong in the other instances I was in.

    I've heard numerous fleet members saying they're experiencing issues with this mission, either it being the wounded soldiers are missing or that the Vaadwaur don't appear. I've played through it earlier without any issues. So I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.
    Oh, it's not broken? We can soon fix that!

    Yeah i'm stuck on that right now, i've tried leaving the planet, coming back and replaying the mission over a good three times, and then trying some other minor quests in the zone and i still suffer from the same problem.

      Changed instance several times, the mission is borked. People just standing around in the different instances hoping the mission will start.

      For that particular Mission, there are only 3 or 4 instances that actually work. Instance 47, and 22 are the two that I can remember off the top of my head.
      But after words things run smoothly again.....so far.

      So if you can get into one of those, you'll be set.

      I have the same problem. It wouldn't of been a big deal if it was a found mission, because I'd like to get the story going. Though, still I have to get to level 54 to get going with that.

      I'll wait on this one for now.

      Today, after the maintenance, this mission is still not working. I went in and tried several instances and could not find one that was working. I dropped the mission hoping that would let me start over and now it won't even let me re-do it. The only mission I can replay is the one with the USS Callisto.

      This really sucks! I have an LTS and I feel like I am getting ripped off.

      I finally got it work just by swapping instances for a few mins. Once I got it working pretty much spent half an hour inviting in all the poor buggers who couldn't get it working on their instance!

      Once you get an instance it works in it can pretty much be farmed non-stop for dilithium though. it's what, 60 dil for a few minutes work at best. It recurs pretty rapidly from what i've seen.

      I haven't seen a working instance myself, but people in zone chat say the bug happens when the vaaduar are killed before they can shoot the soldiers. Soldiers are not wounded -> you can't heal them -> can't complete mission. Apparently it never resets if not completed.

      To restart it, talk to the general. You will have to do the talking to the soldiers parts again, too. Doesn't help finding a instance that isn't stuck, though.

      No wonder it gets broken then. Dozen greedy players camping the bridge, its inevitable.
