SoE has a person working on it, as soon as he finds and fixes the problem, it'll get fixed for everyone.

they know the problem - memory corruption bug- finding exactly where it is and fixing it is currently eluding this person.

Forsaken downed Saryn tonight on Rodcet. Here is the deal.

No matter what, keep at least 1 bird up at all times. So after the first wave, you can go and kill 3 of them, but, whatever you do, dont kill the 4th one before another 10% adds hit.

As we had crashed the zone 2 times and were very distraught over it, we noticed that the only common issue with both times was that, when the birds were gone, so did the zone crash. The first crash happened when we killed all the birds as Saryn hit 80% - poof crash

The 2nd time we went and had birds up through 40%. At the very time the last bird died, Saryn hit 40% - poof crash. Tonight, we had about 8 or 10 birds left at the end of the event and Saryn was dead on the floor - Welcome to Sol Tower <hr></blockquote>

Hmm, interesting turnaround. The resiliance of the playerbase never ceases to amaze me. However, I said it before and I'll say it again, I feel sorry for anyone who has to work on that beast of a code. That code is beyond sloppy seconds.

The crashing is kind of whacked. Very unpredictable.

We had 3 guilds here have Saryrn crash.

Then we had 2 guilds do it with no crash.

If you permamez a bird, you'll prolly be okay.

Or you can do it the fun way... just burn her down and mez everything that pops, clean up later 8D

Did someone point this out to a dev?

Obviously someone (Leo?) had contact with them to find out they were working on it, maybe they havent realized this is the catch to trip the exception.

Just a thought if someone has a way to contact a dev other than /bug or /feedback.

i emailed scott about what is causing the crashing and what is not causing the crashes...

so they know. despite being not recognized, i think we tend to give the devs more stuff than any other board...

A guild on our server had an even worse experience, here's what happened with them (while I was tagging along for flag)...

Get to Saryrn after cleaning house, including keeper. Saryrn fight itself? Flawless. One bird (think Sorrowsong?) was left after she died. Loot was dispersed. Sorrowsong killed. The second, and I remember it like it was yesterday, although it was probably about a half year ago, that the bird was killed, the zone crashed; right after I had hailed the projection for flag. Reset = no flag, lost loot, and four hours of climbing the mind numbing stage that is Saryrn's keep. Suffice it to say, it was a rough night.

Now I see there are more issues with this encounter than I had originally thought; I'll keep an eye out for other guilds on our server and their encounters with her from now on.

Now, Time saryrn on the other hand... )

Did this freaky encounter the other night with a guild on Xegony. We kept 1 bird from each wave mezed. Once Sarrowsong was targetable we killed him then just beat the bondage outa Saryrn. After she bit the dust did the hail and loot deal and got the heck outa dodge asap.

Also we camped before enageing Saryrn to force a save. I think it's a good idea to look at a corpse as soon as she dies that also forces a save. Hope they fix this event soon.

This encounter may be fixed. We did it this weekend after hearing the zone had been taken down. The thing that was different on this time around was that Sorrowsong was up first thing as opposed to spawning near the end (this could be wrong but I thought Sorrowsong popped the other times we did this). We killed all the birds as normal and then Sorrowsong became targetable at the moment that it would normally pop. We killed Saryrn after killing Sorrowsong, got the flag and xloced out with no issues. To be prepared, we traded coins with everyone on the raid prior to engaging incase the zone did crash again.
