Warning: Master of Kahn TF bugged (screenshot inside)

The 113K patch on 2009.09.17 fixed this issue. The TF is now finishing properly and awarding the badge and merits. Nothing to see here, move along.

Someone posted a screenshot showing how they did manage to finish the Kahn TF. I can't find that thread now, so instead I'm making a new one to warn those who don't know: it's highly likely that as soon as you defeat the final mob in the final mission of this TF, the entire team will mapserve and not get any TF completion rewards. No merits, no badge.

For this particular run we defeated Reichsman before defeating Gyrfalcon to see if that made any difference. It did not matter; as soon as Gyrfalcon died, everybody crashed. As soon as we logged back in, the mission was completed and we had no way to redo it or get the rewards.

Whoa, seriously? I was on a Kahn TF today that mapservered RIGHT before we could kill Nemesis. And just as in your experience, the mish was considered completed and no one on the team received any merit rewards.

My team and I just finished Baracuda for Master...4 hours and got to the complete and everything. No badge. But we did get Merits.

OUCH!

Thanks for the heads up - putting these on hold for now.


Go Team Venture!

Hi Leandro,

To bad it happened with you too. I posted a screenie that my team finished the mission without a problem (http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=191424).

Its pretty weird. We did nothing special but will try to remember everything, maybe it help.

- At the last mission, our ghost tp´ed everyone to Reichman room then we started.
- Our AV list was Nemesis -> Countess Crey -> Gyrfalcon -> Vanessa DeVore.
- After DeVore dies, we got back to Reichman and I told my team to cross their fingers and pray for the god (lol). Everyone knew about the crash problem.
- My team: Stone Tanker(I´m the only Melee) / Ice Blaster / Fire Blaster / AR Blaster / Troller Illu/Rad / 2 Ice Defender / Troller Fire/Kin.

Hope they fix it. Good luck to you all. =/


p.s.: Sorry if I spelled something wrong. I´m still learning english. =)

Sorry for all whom tried this

Last night we did this as well with same result.

I have petitioned this with some replies I found "interesting"

However I hope this will be solved soonish, as the reward (Baadges) is atleast half the goal completing such events.

Had the malta AV (Gryphalcon or w/e his name is) down to 90hitpoints, then, WHAM! Mapserver.

Gyrfalcon at the end... coincidence? Both had the crash problem.

We had Nemesis at the end with the crash problem.

Edit: nevermind.

Maybe it´s a random bug. =/

Could it possibly be the order of the two female AVs (seeing as how the two that posted their complete orders, DeVore and Crey were switched)? Or could it be something in an earlier mission that's triggering the early bump out?

I was on a team last night that successfully did the Master of Kahn SF with reward and badge awarded.

The order of activation for our AVs: Nemesis, Countess Crey, Vanessa DeVore, Gyrfalcon

The order of defeat: Countess Crey, (Reichsmann), Gyrfalcon, Nemesis, Vanessa DeVore.

Of note: Vanessa never attacked us; we had to go to her to attack her.

I was on a team that all got disconnected at the very last second. The order in which the AVs came online and were defeated is totally different from the other combinations, so I don't think that is the trigger. For the sake of data, here is the order of activation and defeat:

Activation: Vanessa DeVore -> Countess Crey -> Nemesis -> Gyrfalcon
Defeat: Vanessa DeVore -> Countess Crey -> Nemesis -> Gyrfalcon -> Reichsman

We had Reichsman down to about 330hp when he popped off Corrupted Lightning Bolt, and that was when we all got disconnected.

We received no merits, no badge, simply mission completed.

This is exactly happen to my team as well, I reported it to support and I hope they award the badge to us. If they don't no biggie as it wasn't hard at all.

My support ticket was...

Code:
Just to elaborate on what happened...

The following players and myself completed the Reichsmen Task Force with no deaths and no temp powers.

Beef Cake (me)
Jason Collier
Falcon X
Fashion Sense
Dyre Knight
Jesse Donner
Warchylde
Oh So Naughty

Upon defeating Reichsmen at the end of the last mission, the team was disconnected from the map server, when we all logged back in, the Task Force was complete, but we did not receive the Master of Badge for completing it.

I believe none of us received merits for completing it. I'm not sure I did as I did not keep track of my merits beofre I started the Task Force.

But after logging back into the game, I noticed I had my inspirations I used in the last mission replaced back into my inspiration tray and I only had 2 uses left on the temp power and now I have 7 uses left. So it seems the Map server disconnect rolled the entire team back a few minutes.

I'm thinking this is why we received no merits or the Master of Badge.

I hope this helps describe the situation we had with the Task Force

Yep, I was on the same team as Leo. I was on my controller (purple pleione).
I was also madly pawing at my screen, trying to stop the mapserver of doom.

I'm so glad I had a gastric disturbance that prevented me from doing that RTF with y'all. I'd have been teed off at an ungodly hour.

Hiya Turg!
Leo did send a petition to support for the entire team.
They replied with the TF has been fixed in the latest patch.
So in short, we never got the badge, nor the merits. I'm rather pissed off about that.
