Remove Caught in the Web from DDO Until It is Fixed

[maddmatt70]

It is really irritating to have the hand knock Anna off and then you can not complete the raid. The Hand in and of itself adds nothing and is a major annoyance and causes bugs - I would like the whole thing gone if I had my choice. This raid in general is so buggy. Countless groups on Khyber have not been able to complete because of one bug or another. Should never have been released. Most bugged raid since the old abbot raid versions.

Agreeing with Norg on this. Considering how many times this raid has bugged out today, this should not have made it to live.

For I think the first (& probably only) time, I agree with madd.

The world is ending!!!!


But yeah they need to close it until they get it fixed ...what a waste of time right now.

[Eladiun]

I agree. This could be a decent raid but it's still way buggy. The final fight lagged out half our party the instant things started spawning if your client and server can't even handle the end fight how can you release this. It's embarrassing. U14 has so much excellence and you are burying all that good in a manure of bugs and half finished things.

Why can't Turbine do any of these fixes correctly. Ran the new raid twice today, " A fixed raid", both times the raid bugged. What kind of people do we have working for turbine? How hard is it to fix this. And why would you not close down the raid when you know it is broken. Turbine you need to get your dung in one bag, your spread thinly all over the place. When this new pack came out, I was very excited about it, and was singing your praises. But all the bugs and non working bug fixes have once again erroded my confidence in your ability to get any thing right. Please, if you want anyone to ever trust you again, fix this **** now or pull it off line!

[Cashiry]

Close the Raid and fix it please.. this was a terrible experiance... Anna gets bugged.. GM's cant help move ana back to the beginning... Close it now... I will not run this raid again until its fixed... It never should have made it to live servers, all the feedback that was given on Lama.......was clearly not listened too...

[Lifeblood]

Ana bugging, portal keepers spawning miles away from portals...lolth looks like something that should be mounted on a wall...

so far this is my least favorite of the pack...have no desire to run again

we did finally complete..but at an extreme cost

** Edit...Tons of lag...at end fight

[Damian]

Same thing here, bugged for us. dissapointing

[N1ko]

Agreed, that one run was enough for me to not want to run it again until it is fixed or something is done to improve it. There was nothing fun about that raid, absolutely nothing. The ending was the biggest let down known to man... Oh yay, one last fight to finish off the B****... oh wait, nevermind. I am overall happy with this expansion pack, I really am... I just have nothing positive to say about this raid, sadly.

Ideas - As has been said, remove the hand... just causes more issues and does not bring much to the table. Include rest shrines that are not brought about by ana at the cost of her health... or at least make it more clear as to what to expect. Also, when you get rid of lolth there should be some sort of clearing in the portal keeper spawns (infinite portal keepers? Is that really necessary???). But these are just my thoughts, nothing more and nothing less.

We did an all guild run today, got everything killed, except for I'm guessing One Portal keeper at end fight. Maybe it fell off or something, but we were definately not able to complete due to not being able to tick the box "Kill all portal keepers to open the way" or whatever the hell it was.

46 Majors used myself, and others used alot too, didn't mind chugging them back once completion was imminent needless to say, What a waste, of both resources and time.

Seriously gutted, for myself, my guildies and everyone else having these problems.

[cluedout]

got it finished... was with lifeblood that run, came a little unprepared, and 7 man but on normal with 5 of us being on over the top TR'd characters with loads of loot... completed all other quests on epic elite ect..., we figured it would be similar to other new raids as they came out...
drank close to 200 pots between all of us in 2 runs (first bugged after ana got knocked off, cannot even open a ticket due to a black screen at the help screen)

second run a portal keeper was way back where you find ana in the first place and the only way we found him is when someone fell off and saw them at the res shrine...

turbine, i hope you read this stuff, i know madfloyd is making an effort, but please, dont put buggy ass **** out like this... listen to the community... how did you think that the community was going to act after seeing this on lamma, any different??? cmon thats just nuts! take the raid down, scrap it, remove ana from anything but scripted roles at points in the raid, remove any interaction at all so nobody can mess it up, (we figured you would never put in more escort/protect npc quests as they are the most hated in the game) but i guess we were wrong

remove respawing mobs, nobody likes those, once they are killed, they should stay dead, i dont care if we are fighting a god or a piece of dung, it needs to be toned down a bit... i for one will not be running this raid for a good long time, and as ive geared up as much as i can on my main characters, that leaves little to do...

get your act together and put out more raids like shroud (most run raid in the game) von 5-6 (most fun raid in the game) tempest spine (good old mindless beat down)...

... also to add to the disappointment.... 7 people, 5 chests.... not one piece of named loot...

anyway, i for one am very disappointed with this raid, someone call from diablo 3 when this load of smelly dung is fixed


oh, can anybody point me to a few completely positive posts about this raid?, i looked for a second and could not find any.

[djl]

I figured it out!

The reason there are so many bugs with this pack is because Lolth is

*puts on shades*

Queen of the bugs!

YEEEEEEEEAH

It looked kind of fun but the only run I tried was going fine until crippling lag wiped 10 of the 12 people in the raid. The other two didn't die because their maps were so bugged that they got lost and couldn't find the party again... I'm not sure this counts as positive but I could see how the raid could eventually be fun it isn't fun now though.

Three man Dwarven Defender Run on Khyber (normal) - we got to the last portal and killed everything but the box still read 'kill all portal keepers.' A little disappointing. Couldn't complete.

There is no set number you have to kill, you have to keep killing till the barrier drops then rush her through to the portal. The "kill all portal keepers" is a little misleading/confusing, at least to me it was.

I want to both +1 and -1 that it was so good and awful

[shadereaper33]

I am going to agree with the OP here. Personally, I think the raid needs to be taken offline, completely scrapped, and redesigned with raid loot that is actually worth trying to get. In my opinion, the raid is the worst part of the entire expansion. Horrible design, poor communication of how to complete the raid, and the only thing the raid loot has going for it is the augmented damage dice. bleh.

[Barazon]

Tomb of the Tormented broken? Close it for a few months until it is fixed!

In the Flesh unable to be completed? Close it until it is fixed, and get it fixed FAST!

Caught in the Web? Capstone raid to new content! Close it down, make an attempt at fixing it, when that fails let groups waste hours and hundreds of mana pots trying to complete it, tell them you know it's bugged and they should just file their bug reports (forgetting that the bug report tool is bugged), and not expect any completion, favor, loot, etc. Leave the quest open, since the gaming press might choose to actually report an expansion's capstone raid being closed (despite the risk of losing advertising $$$).

Bugs are bad. Inconsistency is worse.

The Ana in space bug was our bane for several hours today :x
