PTS Update 49 - Bug Reports for Night Market

ZOS_Kevin · January 20

Please report any issues you run into while testing the Night Market Event Zone in this thread. In general, we prefer you to use /bug in-game but if you’d rather submit a report here, please give us as much information as possible, including screenshots and/or video if applicable. Thank you!

sorry, I reposted in right topic.

Even though you've already pledged on a different character, entering a wing of The Night Market has a pop-up telling you that you haven't pledged yet. (Report: 260120-002831)

The "Bound Style Page: Shoulders of the Thousand Eyes" is listed as available in every faction's exclusive shop (and listed twice in the Thousand Eyes shop) despite it being a faction exclusive. There is no listing for "Bound Style Page: Helm of the (Night Market Faction)" in any shop so I assume this is a bug.

When in combat in the Night Market regions, quest markers nearby disappear temporarily.

I got this "crash detected" window when I quit the game while in the Night Market. I'm pretty sure I was doing the normal quit to desktop operation without selecting the "Quit Now" option that leaves you logged in.

I quit the game earlier this morning while in the Night Market without any problems.

And now reported via /bug in game.

I appear to be unable to leave the Night Market by normal means, attempting to zoom out of the map to other zones just cycles through the night market areas(this part was me being stupid ignore that), and attempting to leave through the exit portal just put me back at my faction’s merchant. I ended up having to travel to a home outside the night market via the collections menu to leave the event zone. I will be reporting this through /bug when I am back in game as well.

Splinters are character bound and dropping duplicates you cannot use. I had this happen twice to me today. The splinters are already unnecessarily grindy since they aren't guaranteed drops and you cannot do the instanced content without it so it's extra frustrating to get a duplicate.

Agreed and the fact this is a 6 week only event will only add additional layers of pain

I haven’t hopped on this yet can you sell them or just bound to be destroyed ?

It's possible to attack and kill the Brazen Kraohl the Defiler and Brazen Khephidaen when standing in the northern safe zone in Skittering Precinct.

You can bash once and go into combat while in the ghost form if you don't have a personality active. This can be used to keep a boss in combat even if everyone is dead. For some reason the base personality spawns with weapons in hand which allows for one bash.

When you kill the Calamitous Dunegorger, sometimes you don't get thrown out, instead you have to use the exit which drops you at the entrance of the map. There is also a chance the boss appears alive and is not lootable if this happens

Azureblight sometimes does not gain stacks at all despite having 5pc on body with plenty of AoE dots and fighting alone. Enemies never gained any stacks. Leaving the Night Market and porting back fixed the issue.

The Ritual Skirmish event in the Parch drops the wrong splinter. Only cleared it once but 4-5 group members, myself included, all say they got the "Parch's Glass Splinter" that drops from mobs in the Parch and no one got the "Ritual's Glass Splinter" which is supposed to drop from the event. For me I already had consumed the "Parch's Glass Splinter" when I got a duplicate from the boss leading credence to the belief the drop is bugged.

It seems to me that enemies in the Night Market are immune to player damage when that player is on one of the portal platforms. This makes sense to me.

Sometimes I can damage and even kill enemies from the platform. This is intermittent and seems like a bug.

I have video of it, but Steam's ability to export (or even play) a 1.4 hour long video is remarkably lacking. I'll let the video export run overnight and post a clip tomorrow.

Ngā mihi,

My group were running through Sorrow's Friend and different people saw different things on the map. Some saw the Argent bosses but no Calamitous boss while others saw the roving Calamitous boss but no Argent bosses. When we got to the northern Argent boss location there was no boss there.

There is obviously a bug there somewhere.

Ngā mihi,

Despite Steam's best efforts I have managed to upload a video of this happening at https://youtu.be/LK0ydvBjFLc

After selecting a faction and progressing to the first district, I logged onto another character to try out different builds. On that character I was unable to do the introduction quest as it told me to speak to the curator but they had only generic dialogue. I was essentially locked and unable to progress the quest or pick up any of the main quests.

Me too.

Also can't find the physical entrance – shouldn't it be accessible via the Shambles? Or maybe it isn't done yet?

It can easily be missed, follow the dotted path from the wayshrine to the set station and keep your eyes towards the right.

Agreed it can be easily missed, I ran past it the first time as well. It was actually easier to spot (for me anyway) coming from the south than it was coming from the wayshrine.

Maybe a bright crystal (or something more thematically appropriate) there to make it easier to spot the entrance when running past could be a nice QoL thing to add.

After attempting tier two of the Night Market quest "Blood on the Sands" via the Opulent Ordeal, I was not able to turn in the quest to Dorfifar despite it saying it was complete. Walking through one of the district doors then back in progressed the quest as a temporary fix but this probably could be fixable before it hits live.

Same:
- did the quest on another character
- pledged to a Night Market faction
- logged in to another character
- UI and some NPC dialogue in Night Market (including Curator) treat me as if I already picked a faction
- other NPCs (like the beholder next to the 1000Eyes banner) act as if I hadn't chosen
- can't start any of the zone quests
- when entering a NM zone, I get a popup that I haven't picked a faction and I should get the quest
- I can start the quest from the Crown Store
- it leads me to a spot just outside the NM to talk to the Curator
- Curator is not there

It's really confusing.
Like the whole Night Market and its layout, but that's another topic.

I noticed the Night Market Curator skin is finally previewable on the pts this week and it looks gorgeous but it has a bug with any outfit with flaps that makes it appear like this:

Edit to add:
After another round of the Night Market I came across another thing which I am wondering if is a bug or intended. I had previously noted that daily quest markers seem a bit buggy and often disappear during combat and shortly after. Today when I was going through with a friend, there repeatable quests I couldn't interact with if I had another quest (usually of a similar type from a separate district but not always). Is this a bug or intended behavior?

Emeratis · February 6

I posted in the fanmade lorebook feedback thread that I suspected "Join the Glittering Goad" flier is bugged and I think I more or less now have confirmation of this.

I asked a friend with multiple accounts to test this for me because I only have one account and I have pledged it to a faction. My pledged to a faction character had the fliers disappear, while an alt could see the Thousand Eyes and Ruckus one. My friend went on an unpledged account to look for the Glittering Goad flier and could not find it. Both of the other fliers are in the center of the arena and I assume the Goad flier should be too but it is not.
