Hello! Earlier today, we hotfixed the following two issues that were occurring with the Writhing Wall event:
  • The event world boss, Ghishzor, was erroneously appearing in Phase 1 of the event. He has been turned off and will not reappear until Phase 2 after Update 48 launches.
  • The Stirk Style Items and Motifs will now correctly drop in-game as part of the event.

Thank you and we will continue updating the known issues list for the event here.

    Hi everyone, we just completed two additional hotfixes on all megaservers for the Writhing Wall event:
    • Vitrified Souls will now also drop from Dark Anchors and more Daedric monsters, in addition to the Daedra that were already dropping Vitrified Souls. You can find a full list in this thread.
    • Fixed an issue where Siege Camps were occasionally resetting immediately after an invasion began.

    Hello! We just completed the following two additional hotfixes on all megaservers for the Writhing Wall event:
    • Increased the drop rate for Writhing Wall-themed furnishings that drop from defeating Field Marshalls in invaded delves and public dungeons.
    • Increased the drop rate for Writhing Wall quest items for Phases 2 and 3.

    Hello everyone,

    We have begun working on publishing several hotfixes on all megaservers that will go out later today. Details on each hotfix is below:
    • We’re removing the flying phases from the encounter with Zysax, the Titan boss in the Writhing Fortress, to fix situations where it can sometimes become bugged and not completable. This will also include any instances where the quest “Support the Fellowship” is not correctly updating.
    • Walks-In-Ash and the Infernium will no longer get stuck in the Writhing Fortress, preventing further progression in the instance.
    • Your character will no longer be stuck as dead with no way to resurrect if you fall in certain areas within the Xul-Kutama delve. If your character is currently stuck, you should be able to resurrect at the nearest wayshrine once the hotfix is complete.
    • Skordo will now consistently appear when you go to hand in the quest “Support the Fellowship” at the siege camp in Solstice.
    None of these hotfixes will require downtime but we do suggest you relog once everything is published. For visibility, we are currently anticipating being finished by 6:00pm EST and will let you know as soon as everything is complete.

    We know you all have some outstanding questions about the event, and we have some additional updates we'll share later today. Thank you.

    To update, we successfully deployed the hotfixes affecting Zysax, Walks-In-Ash, and Skordo. We ran into some issues with the hotfix for the Xul-Kutama delve resurrection bug and will continue to work on this tomorrow.
