    Hi Kevin. I hope you are doing well and having a good new year. I wanted to follow up on this. From what I understand it's possible to be awarded the mount if you got a bugged planesbreaker. A member of our group still doesnt have the mount due to the bug in the video Seaunicorn linked in this. Can @ifeeltoxic in game who you can see was in this group be awarded the mount? Thank you so much in advance!

    Hello, I just made a forum account because yeah, happened to our group last night. We saw on a few discords that a claim was made you already fixed this bug? Well at least on PCNA as of about 12 hours ago, that is not true. Here's a screenshot with the time and full vit shown and achievement not unlocked. We also did not get the no-death achievement even though we had no deaths.

    We did check our score milestones and can confirm our time/score lines up with us killing everything we were supposed to. Our score matches groups that got the title perfectly, so this is definitely a bug and not a mistake on our end.

    I can send you a video of the run shortly. I need to get a copy where we remove the copious amounts of profanity at the end when we realized what happened.

    As an aside, I'd like to add my voice to the chorus of people saying it's really inappropriate and unprofessional that your CS team responds to our VERY legitimate concerns with either complete radio silence, or really insulting statements like "try again without addons" (the addons are made with YOUR API, so even if they were the issue, and we all know they're not, it's still your API interface at fault). One of our raid team members got this unacceptable response to their ticket:

    yy5cjd1sf01z.jpg


    We started this prog the first week that Blackwood went live, and worked on this goal for 68 total raid nights, over the course of 8 months, totaling over 216 hours of progression per person, which is over 9 days of our cumulative lives per person so to then not get the title/mount/achievement to a bug that has been a known-issue since at least early September is... a lot... but even if I forgive that and assume you earnestly were trying to work on it and fix it, train your CS team to not send such demeaning and tone-deaf replies.

    Meanwhile, another group was awarded the title, achievement, and mount on a 35/36 clear because the game didn't register the death properly (another known issue with environmental deaths that was also true during Godslayer). I'm not here to crap on them or say they don't deserve it, because 1) they're my friends and 2) they still worked just as hard, but it's absolutely ridiculous that at least 6 groups that I'm aware of met all criteria and didn't get the achievement because of bad game coding, another group that technically didn't meet the criteria DID get the achievement because of bad game coding, and your CS reps are out there trying to victim-blame or saying "just go do it again" to a bunch of people that spend absolutely absurd amounts of hours trying to do it ONE time the FIRST time.

    And even if you don't have the means to grant the achievement without breaking the game, SURELY you have some way to compensate players in this situation as a one-time customer service apology. I mean when I eat out at a restaurant and they mess up my order, they at least send me a free dessert or a gift card for my next meal, and I'm a LOT less invested in that one meal or restaurant...

    Is this the sixth and seventh mistake in six months?

    this is actually a very good question about compensating for wasted time in the void
    players who got another error although... what can we say about compensation, we did not even receive any answer :smile:
    and do not think that those players who received errors in the fall have already forgotten about it ^

    It would be interesting if it was the add-ons screwing it up. Has there been a pc group that's completed it normally or does everyone use them?

    Sadly the customer support team that is sending out the replies have no idea what they are talking about. They probably have a list of excuses to send out. Which is why we have to come to the forums to request aid from the zos employees who can pass our issues onto the developers/right people.


    We redid the achievement with the same addons same group same everything we had the first time and it didnt cause the issue when we earned it again.

    Patch notes on PCNA today say they've fixed it. Hopefully we'll see this weekend if that's true. I'd still say that even if they have finally fixed this, there really should be something done for the people that already dealt with this. As GreenDay said, our group is salty enough two days later, but other groups have been stewing on this for months...

    It's not exactly a light or easy achievement to get, you don't simply "re-do" it. Yes, any group that can do it once can do it again, and most other groups that have had this bug have since gotten their title/mount, but that's absolutely a big enough mistake to at least warrant some unique title, or crowns, or some cosmetic or idk what. There's barely any end-game content as it is, so it adds insult to injury when the only truly difficult trial/achievements left in the game are broken for months in a year that we didn't even get any Q4 end game content.

    TLDR: what is the status on this tool?

    I recently came to speak about these incidents again and revisited the thread and found the comments about this tool.
    This was in Nov. 2021, further incidents happened in January and February 2022 and there was no eta or further information about this tool yet.

    It has been 2,5 years now, and - I might've missed it - but I have no recollection about any news regarding this tool. Since some community pressure seems to be the only way to cause certain actions, I'd like to revisit the status of this tool - and if it exists, could we - at least for these hard (not so hard anymore but still) achievements get them added to our accounts (ideally with the past dates) ??

    My guess is there is no information to report, and all we got were empty words or cancelled projects by fast-sales drives management, as with so many presented roadmaps, promises of change/regular updates - BUT I would be really happy to be surprised.
