BUG: The Dragons Deceit - Shoot Weak Point INVESTIGATING

Hi all,

I have been playing the new Delta quadrant missions and have gotten as far as The Dragons deceit.

I go through the mission and get to the Shoot Weak Point part, where you have to shoot rocks to cause a diversion.

The issue is that whenever I shoot at the rocks, nothing happens.

I have watched a video on YouTube of the mission to make sure I am doing everything right, and I am.

I suspect that the issue is that I am playing as a Reman and the game mechanic isn't set for this. A similar thing has happened before on one of the Bajor missions, where I couldn't activate a console.

If this has already been reported, my apologies.

Thanks.

Bkel1977.

    Try clicking around to see if you can select the rock, then fire your weapons. I find doing this eventually works around that problem. It forces the game to register it as an enemy, thus allowing you to destroy it.

    You may also want to use a pulsewave, its AoE should hit anyway. Continuous beam rifles (both high density and split) work almost each time, and Lunge just kills the poor rock.

    Its a really old issue, happens also with doors on Drozana in "Night of the Comet" and with rocks covering cave entrance in that one particular Breen episode mission where you finally get the complete star chart.

    The first time I played the mission this is exactly what I got as well.

    The rocks became untargetable so the objective could not be completed.

    I could not reproduce the bug.

    Hi all,

    So, I punched, kicked, stabbed, shot and burned the rocks as well as throwing a few grenades at them but nothing happened.

    So I restarted the mission and tried clicking around, after a minute or so, I could suddenly lock on to the weak spot and destroy the rocks.

    I can't explain it, first time I ran the mission nothing worked, but I'm not going to complain, just glad to have it finished.

    Thanks for the responses everyone.
