Veteran Spindleclutch Bug: NPCs do not die. Cannot respawn.

Asia_Skyly

If the party were to wipe at any point doing Veteran Spindleclutch, the NPCs will remain alive engaging whatever enemy (usually a boss) the party died to. Their engagement prevents the players from respawning as the team is still considered to be in combat.

+1 here.......awesomesauce...hopefully it is a known issue.

Why the hell they even mess with that dungeon?? Was working fine about 1 month ago...U mess with something to make it better...not to destroy it.

Sethowar

this is still broken. so its slipped through a few patches

Two solutions at the moment working:

1. Person to which NPC is attached need to log out and log in.
2. If solution 1 doesnt work type /stuck by all party members

Hope this help to some parties.

This seems to happen every once in a while. If you have a ton of free time tho...NPCs actually do some damage so after a while they'll kill the boss for you xD

It bugged out very fortunately for us - we got Bloodspawn down to like 2% and then he got us. The cave-in came right on top of NPCs(over 100k damage IIRC) but one of them got stuck at 1 health and just kept going. In 10 mins he killed Bloospawn for us xD That was hilarious.

I guess it would be much less so if this happened when a boss had...more health. We did try to get out during this but there seemed nothing we could do. Only thing I can think of might be /stuck, as someone already said.

This is still a problem. I was hoping this was fixed in the latest patch. It was not. Where is the best place, other than /bug, to report this issue?

/stuck didnt work

Now i can't even enter Spindleclutch with my non-vet character.

I get an error message saying that i'm not the appropriate VR level for the dungeon.
However, this is on my level 16 alt, not a VR character.

We tried both of these during one run...they did not work. Thanks for the tip, though! Hopefully this helps some people.

Check to see if your "group" option is set to veteran. I know, simple...but, it can't hurt to check.

Same problem here. Dungeon is unplayable in current state.

Most recent patch somewhat fixed this, but it still sometimes happens with blood spawn

What we did when this happened is this-

2 people quit the group and are booted out of the instance leaving 2 inside.
Re-invite the booted players and after they enter the instance the two who stayed repeat the process.

Had the same issue with a few yesterday. The Gargyle boss when raging we all died but the NPCs kept fighting, so we weren't able to revive at shrine. Had to leave group, wait til removed from area, abandon the quest because the NPC were not doing anything when we went back in.
It resulted in no thanks, but no. Maybe some other day.
