Siege of Gondamon Problems

[TedtheBear]

On two different Characters I have had the same problem in this skirmish. What happens is the last mob, the Dourhand leader stands on the roof of the tent and does nothing. I log or leave the instance and have to do it again. I get some experience and whatever bounties I have collected, but if I do not do it again then I do not get credit for it as a Daily skirm. It's annoying since it wastes my limited playtime on doing the same Skirm twice. Has anyone else had this issue?

Are you killing the Drake before he gets off the roof? That's listed in the Known Issues list from the recent patch.

If you are, just... don't kill the drake before the Dwarf comes down and all will be well.

[TedtheBear]

Thanks, yeah that was it. and Then when I tried to log on again I saw that that was listed as a knowm problem

The so-called known fix didn't work for me. After the dourhand general finished his speech and called the drake, Mathi went and attacked the drake and killed it (with help from my soldier who I couldn't pull off) while I watched, which broke the skirmish. I would recommend not playing this skirmish at all until Turbine does a real fix for it, unless you feel like wasting 40 mins. or so of your time for nothing.

Just did it last night with no problems. Waited for the boss to finish talking & start attacking us, at that point we killed the drake, then finished off the boss. Everything completed with no problems.

CalloWindBringer, did the boss actually aggro you? Are you saying that the boss was aggro'd on you for a while, and that halfway through fighting him he went un-aggro? Or are you saying that even after he jumped down to the main level and finished his speech, he never aggro'd? Or are you saying he never jumped down?

I've actually done this on various level characters (as low as 25 and as high as 65) at least a half dozen times since the new update and never had an issue. I make sure to stay far back on the platform (opposite end from where the drake is) until the dwarf boss goes aggro on us...and then everything is fine.

Still needs to be fixed. Waiting for the dwarf to agro before doing anything does not = a fix to me.

So I know about the bug, and I go into the skirmish, and the dragon of course initiates combat from afar, I don't attack, at all, my soldier goes into attack, I quickly dismiss him. The Dwarf general never came down. The dragon was not defeated, hardly even damaged, Mathi wasn't in a fight yet, he just stood staring the other direction. The Dwarf general just stood there none the same, didn't even finish his speech.

[Hellsbane]

I never had a problem with this one. The dourhand comes out and starts talking. Mathi walks over to him talking back. The dourhand attacks, Mathi counters, i and my helper attack the dourhand. The dragon sits on the sidelines watching the whole thing, doing nothing. Kill off the dourhand, then the dragon kicks it up a notch. We kill the dragon. Instance completed.

Still needs to be fixed. Waiting for the dwarf to agro before doing anything does not = a fix to me.

There is a fix slated for the next patch.

Please note that a work around is by no means a fix and is not intended or suggested to be one. It is exactly what its name says; a way players can work around a known issue until such time as we can apply the appropriate fix.
