    It’s just a massive bummer when going for trifectas and then this bug which has been known for years strikes members of your team.

    What is Truth? Not my own truth, and not your truth. But Universal Truth, that is an absolution.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin Still experiencing this on xbox NA and PC NA. is there an ETA on this?
    This makes getting the HM almost impossible, especially during this event where the mask style page is dropping....

    This is easily reproducible, and hoping to atleast get an acknowledgement about this bug from you guys...

    This has been a thing on Xbox NA for a very long time. When my dungeon group ran the perfecta, we got around the problem with the circles using the following approach. We'd clear the dungeon and get to the final boss, activating hard mode. Then one player would stay in the dungeon, while the others logged out, quit the game, and closed the game from the Xbox home menu. Then you go into your settings -> storage -> delete local save games. The Xbox will reset and then the players log back in. Once the players are back in the game, the person that is waiting in the dungeon does the same process: log out, quit game, delete local saved games, and re-log. Once everyone is back in the dungeon, commence with the fight.

    This worked 100% of the time as we worked on completing the perfecta. It's an annoying pain but totally worth it to avoid the desynced circles issue.

    Happy achievement hunting

    This is STILL happening, and the new patch added a fragment for one of the skill styles to Castle Thorn. It would be one thing if this dungeon was just abandoned, but to add new content to a dungeon that has been broken for years? That is insulting.

    This is paid content. These dungeons are not free. People have to purchase this broken dungeon. And clearly you expect players to go back to it and replay it to access the new skill styles. How is that at all reasonable when *the* key mechanic of the fight is broken? @ZOS_Kevin @ZOS_GinaBruno

    Just experienced this. Really frustrating. This should have been fixed quite a while ago.

    This also happens if we get Lady Thorn as a boss in the Infinite Archive. It happened to me very recently and ended my run.

    What surprises me is, that only the same players encounter this bug. In our dungeon group it's always the same player, who can't see the circle, while it's always working for the others. So I am wondering if that bug is really caused by zos and not a graphic setting or outdated graphics driver.

    When I've run the IA with a friend he always sees the circle but I often don't. I have seen it a couple of times so I don't think it's my PC, but maybe it is. I will be building a new system sometime next year so I'll see if that makes any difference.

    I went through this fight with my stamDK character in January and didn't even know such a problem existed. Now I've found out about it with my magNB. The system is the same. Solo run.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin this bug is still there. We've been trying for the Guardian Preserved achievement, but it's literally impossible to do if even one group member gets this bug (which happens EVERY. SINGLE. INSTANCE.)

    It's especially infuriating, as this is one of the only achievements I have left to complete and a bug that's been there for OVER THREE YEARS has still not been solved.

    PLEASE have your team look at this again in the coming year when revising old content. This is getting ridiculous.
