Summerfest Scavenger hunt P2

[Twilight23]

I had 5 treasures from Shimmersand pre-patch. Post-patch, the quest claims it's completed but won't give me the reward (and the quest giver will not talk to me). Because of this, I also can't finish Great Scavenger Hunt, Part 2.

Anybody else encounter this problem?

Completed the quest already the 'painful' way, but have seen Elrar post a possible fix:

if you have the 5 already you should be able to pick up one more and that will refresh the quest and complete it. Worst case scenario CS is able to assist you

If that doesn't work, Elrar then recommends you contact Customer Support or simply abandon the quest and collect five new treasures:

The potential fix I posted doesn't appear to work as we'd hoped, at least not for everyone - but the good news is, as others have confirmed, CS can take care of this pretty quick for you or if you really don't want to wait for that you should find collecting 5 to be a lot easier with the increased number of spawn points we've added as well.

If you really want to slack though, Dispo has posted this workaround:

Found an easy fix;

I took my 5 beads from my quest bag and placed them into my normal inventory.
Seperated 1 from the stack and put it in the bank.
Right clicked the other 4 into the bank, and my quest updated.

You might be able to just throw all 5 in the bank at once and it might update.

Hugely improved. Bogling repop is about a minute and treasure nodes are much more plentiful. Did both SS and Moonshade in 15 minutes each.

Thank you for the info Volsey. As I didn't see anything about Moonshade I was about to just not bother. Now I'll go and finish the hunt.

Pre-patch… Shimmersand spawned me treasure sand piles in beach spots from the Droughtlands to Fortune Shore to the area with the demon elites, and all I needed was the gold colored quest icon. A lot of them didn’t show up without it. I know someone mentioned this but….. You have to run, stop, then use the quest icon on every inch of beach, or you leave it behind you. (Someone on my shard was still running behind the Flatyard without using it a day after the person’s post in here. I tried talking to her, but she ignored me.) The water elemental cave and the cave with the fish elite spawned me a little treasure all the way in the back of the cave. I didn't have to kill any elite demons either, just a centaur or two, as I then carefully snuck in from the water. (I was a 49-50 Mage)

Since someone in the thread provided locations of Bogglings in Moonshade, I ran to them and finished in three attempts. They are very small, so I had to really look a little bit a couple of times.

Scarlett Gorge took me a few minutes in the Eastern Ridge cave. I hope something in this post helps.
I for one enjoyed the hunting quests.

Well the patch made it possible to complete the SS quest much easier. Would have been nice to have this hotfixed in last weekend, oh well. I really did not like this event, especially the p2 scavenger hunt, I won't be completing it on any other toon than my main. In addition there are not any event items that really even interest me, I think overall this event was really lacking. I would give 1.9 overall a low grade with all of the issues with the quests and Conquest system overall. It will definitely make me think twice about jumping to buy the expansion if the poor quality keeps up.

I don't believe for a second Trion cares about it's product anymore. PvP where the player killing is de-emphasiazed because there is too much focus on PvP, de-emphasis of any sense of premamanent team building, world event quests that are little more than "We have hidden a coin somewhere in Shimmersnad--go find it", and a general disregard for the repeated cries of the consumer for common-sense fixes. I think Trion knows that GW2 is going to be a royal subscriber drain for them, and they are promising new and better in the hopes of keeping what shrinking base they have in the meantime. Storm Legion, if it is anything like the recent products, is going to be *horrible* and *frustrating*.
