Personal Endeavors Anomaly

edited August 2023 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
This has happened to me a few times, and happened again today... My 3 Personal Endeavors:
UC - Harvest Materials (Ground) 0/1 (I actually replaced this one, as it was "Complete an Iconian TFO", which I loathe...)
RA - Deal Disruptor Damage (Ground) 0/10,000
UR - Deal Polaron Damage (Space) 0/500,000

I planned out my route. I would do my daily event "To Hell with Honor" in my Breen (Jem'Hadar in disguise) loaded with Poalron DBB's... Then I would head over to Nimbus III in one of my KDF toons and kill a bunch of Dewan Arthropods and finish up my Disruptor damage. Then I would take that KDF captain and transwarp to the beginning of "Sphere of Influence" to harvest materials at the opening location of the mission.

The Anomaly: I completed my 10K Disruptor damage and it gave me credit for the Harvesting materials... I had to change maps and do another round of 10K Disruptor damage...

I have no proof as I couldn't take a screenshot of it. But it has happened before and it did it again today. Just wondered if it was only me or was this happening to others. Is it a bug to report or a goof in the system itself? One that has already been reported? Perhaps it's working as intended and figured I'd complete it anyways so why not save me a trip (lol)? Is there something that triggers it?

Thanks for any positive and helpful replies!

    I've never had a problem with harvesting materials (Ground or Space), nor any of the do X <flavor> damage (Ground or Space). Frankly, I haven't had problems with any Endeavor I choose to do.

    Usually for six (Ground) (When it's the UR one) I'll just redo Diplomatic Immunity and grab the two on Vulcan and the four on P'Jem. For six in space I'll do Japori and Archer systems
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.

    I usually use the non combat Breen arc mission for the ground harvesting. Beam in, grab the two on the Deferi ship, beam out to reset.

    That's a good idea. Still, Diplomatic Immunity doesn't take too long these days either.

    I have had a similar error to what you describe once, a few weeks ago. It was a mid level ground damage endeavour, but it listed 20k as the target instead of 10k - obviously wrong at the time, but I tried doing it to see what happened. After passing 10k damage, it reacted as though the endeavour was complete but didn't provide the reward. I continued to deal damage, even though progress was no longer showing, and after what was I assume another 10k damage provided the reward box.

    I haven't seen anything similar before or since, but I do seem to remember it was during another period where there were frequent short bursts of lag (not the sustained lag where you can enter a TFO, be almost unable to respond in any way, and then have to watch until it's over and you have an AFK penalty for your trouble), with the usual rubber-banding, which I have been seeing again today.

    @echatty and @rattler2

    You missed the point... I know where to go to complete the missions... That’s not the issue... It was the fact that I completed the ground 10k Disruptor damage, but the system gave me the credit for the harvesting materials endeavor... And it’s done that to me before...

    @darknovasc01

    Now that you mention it, there was one a few weeks ago where on one toon it wanted 3,000 Salvage, and on another toon the same endeavor only wanted 1,000 salvage...

    I am just wondering if this is something that needs to be brought up, or if I’m the only one having these kinds of things happen...

    Thanks for the replies!

    @crm14916
    I wasn't saying anything was wrong. I was just saying where I usually go for the harvesting in response to echatty.
    I personally have never experienced that damage issue so I have no real reference to respond one way or the other...

    I can't say that i've ever seen that situation while doing endeavors myself. Only endeavor bug I've ever run into is not being able to reroll

    This right here. I've not run into any bugs like has been posted, but sometimes I can't re-roll Iconian TFOs or Lukari TFOs

    Did you by any chance have the same exact endeavour the previous day? The only time I have had anything similar to what you describe is when I have re-rolled and received one I completed the previous day, then it shows completed until I change map.

    I'm only seeing this thread just now. I posted a thread in the bug section detailing a similar issue last night:
