Question about Trophies and Busts for Night Market Group Dungeons

katanagirl1 · May 16

Today I finished the last group dungeon in the Night Market, and I was looking back through my Collections and noticed that I have trophies for all 3 bosses, Alziriix, B’Kyfxi, and Fateline’s Knell, and I have a bust for only B’Kyfxi. It is my understanding that there are not different difficulties for these so why the difference? The tank did comment that Timeless Wallow was supposed to be the easiest, but we struggled and wiped a few times before we succeeded. It seemed much harder than the others. The busts just say after defeating the bosses and completing the “Gold-Plated Keymaster Achievement”, which I have.

What could be going on?

You get the trophy the first clear and the bust the second.

from what i seen the achievement seems buggy

it says you get the busts after doing all 3 dungeons, but what it really means is only the 3rd dungeon you do will grant the bust for only that dungeon, the 2nd time you do the other 2 dungeons you get the bust

the trial is even weirder, you get both the bust and the trophy on the first run (or at least i did lol)

It has its inner logic, but anyway this is a bad design.
You get the dungeon bust if you have the "Gold-plated Keymaster" achievement. And granting the achievements is coded before checking the bust eligibility.

So, for the first 2 dungeons you don't have the achievement, so you get trophies only.
For the 3rd dungeon you get the achievements first, including "Gold-plated Keymaster". Then the game checks what achievements you have and grants you the bust. Technologia!

Well, it is weird. It should be fixed.

also the trial has only trophy / bust for one of the 3 bosses

Yeah, I shouldn’t have gotten the bust then since it’s my first time for all three. At first I thought maybe we got both trophy and bust at the same time because this is harder content but this explanation makes more sense.

I killed the boss, got the gold-plated achievement, then got the bust even though the boss was already dead at that point.

I can’t complain about getting it but that isn’t the way it should work.

The first time I did Opulent there were no drops of either bust or trophy.That might be a bug. Luckily, I got both later on.

Yes there was initially a bug that was fixed in an update
