Can we get the bug? where destroying Plunderbeacons near shore or server lines gives no reward fixed? Please? Before the event ends?
And should they still be damaging us when they are crewless?
when they are that close to the shore, you don't even get drops from the spawn either
I'm going with Superfrog's "Sometimes you do and sometimes you do not." on getting a drop. We've done beacons so close to shore that we had hop off the ship and get some of the orcs from land. Then back on the ship to pick off the orcs on the other side and take out the beacon. And we've gotten a drop. Other times not.
Last night I had a completely different encounter than any other beacon so far:
Orcs were dispatched. Tried to come at the beacon from its west side. Cannons started firing again. I got the message that war target was blocked when trying to fire on beacon so we couldn't engage. The beacon was not firing energy bursts at us. We repositioned ship to the NW corner, with bow facing south, and were able to fire on beacon using bow and spells. We weren't getting hit with cannon fire from that angle and the beacon did start firing energy bursts at that point. It seemed so buggy I thought for sure we wouldn't get a drop. My experience prior to this was, if the cannons fire after orcs are gone you won't get a drop. Low and behold we did. Like I say, it was different than any other encounter so far.
This has happened to me more than a few times too.
I’ll say this, it has its bugs but it is still fun as hell. I’ll report the bugs and play on.
This should now be resolved on all shards - please report any additional infos.
If you encounter issues with cannons firing after the orc crew please submit a bug report with as much detail as possible so we can pinpoint the issue.
A Giant Thank You Kyronix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
