Writhing fortress broken?

Sandmanninja · 8:50AM

I'm not trying again until after maintenance or they announce they've patched live. Having said that, the clock is still ticking...
I think the least that should happen is they give us SOME time back... reset the clock a bit. If not the whole 7 days, then at least 3 or 4. Of course, this has not worked since Day 1 Hour 0 Minute 1, so having said that, they should give us a full 7 days once it's fixed. I've played for 10 years and spent waaaay more money than I should have. I'm sure there are others in the same situation. It's just... disappointing.

Everytime I go in the fortress, it tells me to go to the spire and my map shows all the bosses have been beaten. I have never been able to do anything inside. I went and did the next part of the main quest, where you destroy the wall, and I got the wall breaker achievement. Shouldn't you have to complete both the fortress and the wall for that

This event is some of the best content ever released for ESO. It's spectacular in its scale and design; the artwork is second to none. It is such a shame that it has so many bugs. What I would like to see after the end of this event is it being redesigned further and converted into a trial, so that all that hard work will live on and everyone can appreciate its grandeur and beauty.

What about the 2 bosses we can't get from the siege camps? Has that already been addressed and I missed it?

Not as far as I know

I abandoned the quest also this morning and Skordo appeared. My map finally shows that the Writhing Fortress has been completed too.

Wow.

That's all I've got.

Hey all,

In regards to the issue with handing in the current quest with Skordo, as we posted in this thread and others, if you currently have The Worm Turns in your quest log, dropping it should resolve the problem.

If you’ve already completed The Worm Turns, please hang onto your quest for now. We assembled a fix internally over the weekend, and we’re working to get it onto the live servers as soon as possible. Monday would be the earliest opportunity, but I don't want to promise exact dates until we sync up with our Live Ops team.

We know this has been frustrating, and we’re also addressing additional issues with the Wall itself such as the stuck NPCs and the boss fight not finishing. We’re doing everything we can to get things fixed, updated, and running smoothly again. Our apologies that this made it to live like this.

Thanks for your patience — we’ll share more updates as soon as we have them.

~Jason

Doesn't the event end in 5 days from now?

If we all have to wait a further 7 days, the event will be over.

Also, what happened to the drop rates - are shards no longer dropping?

I've been tryiung to complete the WF on PS EU but the Infernium (the one that opens the gate for the boss on the left side) is bugged (it doesnt goes towards the gate despite the barrier being destroyed) making it impossible to complete. I've tried to enter different instances but it seems I'm always lead to the same bugged instance.
I've been trying since Friday.

Update: Today I was able to enter a "clean" instance and complete the WF on PS EU.

For some reason, they're unable to change the countdown once it's live. They mentioned this during a previous event that they extended. Hopefully they extend this one, even with a new event starting in a few days. The content of a limited time event being unplayable for at least half that period is extremely poor optics.

Hi everyone, just making sure you all saw the hotfixes that are currently in progress for the Writhing Fortress: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/8392802/#Comment_8392802

Can you tell us when we can expect the Eastern Skyshards not being collectible bugfix?
Because every character who has completed western Solstice cannot collect them because they are marked as "finished".

I'm impressed how ZOS once again managed to release statement without even the slightest approach of an apology.

I mean.. Yea sure. I got it. Apologizing actually means acknowledgement of failure.

I was told in response to my ticket that it would "roll out during a future maintenance"

This is currently the most accurate. We are still working out exactly how to fix everyone but we plan to do it during an upcoming maintenance (it doesn't need to be tied to a patch).
