Arathi Basin flags

Post by Apuclevercow »

Hello,

What is the bug?
Sometimes, I can't capture a flag in Arathi until someone else on my team capture it.

Is it a spell or database issue? (database relates to any NPC, quest or item)
DB issue.

How can you reproduce it?
When many players are coming at a base I just captured, I'll not unstealth if I'm alone so I just wait that they assault it, and if only one player remains or everybody is leaving, I'll try to take this flag back.
But, sometimes, I'll not be able to capture the flag, even if I see the little object on mouseover telling me that I can capture.
It never happens if it wasn't me capturing the flag just before the ennemy team does it.

This bug is really annoying as I'm trying to play merely for the objectives in order to win Arathi Basins.
I need an answer.

This is not a database issue. At least, it shouldn't be at all.

I've never, ever encountered this bug in-game, which is quite vital to me understanding it, so until then I don't really have anything for you.

That's probably because you don't hide enough at a base, you zerg too much Hen.

I think adopting the Bug Report Submit form resulted in a faster answer. No need to keep on bumping an unclear, two lined report, with two comments.

I think deleting bumps 5 times w/o giving a reason in MPs isn't a moderator attitude. My post was clear enough, I don't have to write a book in order to explain that even if I click many times on a flag I can't capture it.

Maybe if you didn't bump the thread everytime it falls 3 slots down your posts wouldn't be deleted.

Actually you're totally wrong, my post was unanswered for 2 months before my 1st bump, therefore it was clearly legitimate for me to up.
Moreover it was falling 1 page down due to the incessant deletion.

I'm just saying that making a decent bug report thread has a bigger chance to get supported. Let's take as example your two reports.

1. The one you were spamming bumps in after a month without any reply:
Apuclevercow wrote:My post was clear enough, I don't have to write a book in order to explain that

2. And the other one you made, following the Bug Report Submit form, which got supported the very next day:

You're welcome.
