Frostvault is an abomination

furiouslog · April 2020

So me and three intrepid buds ventured into vet Frostvault this fine evening. I know it was buggy recently, but holy cow, has it gotten bad. Among others, here were some of the more memorable bugs:

- Tzogvin AOE positional desyncs casuing deaths in spots where AOE was not visible
- Vault protector dome failing to block the lasers and one shotting team.
- Vault protector standing up and moving around during the dome phase - no dome visible but apparently functional.
- Vault protector lasers firing off at weird times causing them to overlap or fire simultaneously such that they are impossible to avoid even in the center of the room.
- Skeevaton ultimate at full charge failing to disable shock conveyors when firing ultimate.
- My personal favorite: necro bone armor unskinned poly showing up on skeevaton's butt all throughout skeevaton phase.

Avoid this place like the plague unless you you are a glutton for the sensation of brain-melting frustration mixed with dadaist absurdity.

Well given it’s kicked me to my computer’s login screen on the final boss fight every time I’ve played it and ZOS seemingly can’t be arsed to do anything about it, I’ve given up on it..

Never being fixed. Buy the expansion and move along.

Please fix this, some of us really like this dungeon and it’s unacceptable that it’s been broken as long as it has.

ZOS said they were fixing it, we are still waiting for that. It has been bugged since the beginning. At least it didnt kick you out of the game like it does most people.

I ran this for the first time last night as a tank on PS4. Luck enough to get a good PUG group we sailed through the dungeon only to get kicked to the login screen on the last boss. I get logged back in and the boss is dead however I didn't get credit so had to run it again with a PUG group to get the skill point for the dungeon quest. Team said it was a known bug and had been since release.

Was not happy about it at all.

Never had great problems thus far, must have run it 15-20 time the past month (mostly normal).

Yup, all those problems you had are bugs that have existed in the dungeon since it launched, along with it merrily booting people. I'm glad I didn't run into any problems back when I was grinding Tzogvin's stuff, but most of the issues seem to happen in Vet and I'd only run it on Normal (tho iirc people running Normal have also experienced these problems, just to a lesser extent).

It's ridiculous this dungeon has had this many problems for this long.
