#60040, "A wand spot"


          

Hi guys, could you look intro a certain wand spot in wastes of nonveil. I have found the spot but there is no rod in that place..

I hope for a bug.

There is nothing welcoming about the wastes of Nonviel, but you find yourself attuned to some bones within its sands regardless.

i did find the bones, but it was empty..

thanks

And if it was it would be the most absurdly broken sienna in the game (there are a few blacks easier to reach than the second pile of bones). The first pile is about right for a sienna. I've had this one a few times. If you spend enough time wandering around the wastes it eventually resets so it's probably there somewhere but walking over both (empty) piles of bones triggers it, and whatever did trigger it wasn't an obvious or semi-obvious pile of bones.

I've had many other players vent their frustration to me over this spot, and nobody I've ever heard of has ever successfully gathered it. Now that Hardan woods is gone it's the only wand spot left that I can't find.

If you land this spot your recourses are limited wands, committing to a long time wandering the wastes and hoping you walk past it, or doing without shield (no big deal for most mage classes).

Let's try this:

- As far as I can tell the spot has always been functional.

- There are multiple rooms with the same container and only one of those rooms is the correct one.

- Until a few months ago, there was no indication in the correct room that the container was there. We fixed that by updating the room description.

- I have personally watched more than one person acquire this wand since we added the above mentioned clue.

- 99% of the time someone prays about a wand issue the problem is one of: they were a ghost at the time; they had acquired a sleek of that type too recently; or they were just flat wrong on the location/mob.

My experiences with that spot were many months ago. I did bug board it but I was told 'by design', glad something was changed anyhow.

Feel free to post something on the bug board (w/ character name), but 99/100 times this ends up being user error, and I know that particular spot was working fine as of a few weeks ago.
