What's up on Corellia?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.starwarsgalaxies (More info?)

Over the course of the last two weeks I've taken 2 delivery jobs on
Corellia, both starting in Coronet and ending in Bela Vistal....both times
when I arrived at Bela Vistal the waypoint was empty! It was there,
glimmering with the hope of payment, but there was no NPC there to complete
the mission!!!
What's going on? Am I the only one this has happened to?

The first time, I took my good old time and took a speeder there, the second
time, after fearing that I was too slow the first time, I took a shuttle and
arrived at the waypoint less than 2 minutes later, and again there was no
NPC.

I've noticed over the last two weeks that NPCs would be hiding inside
walls...while I was not hunting for them it seems odd that an NPC that's
obviously attackable would be stuck inside a wall, therefore making them
unavailable to attack (I tried one once, to see what would happen and got
the response "that target cannot be seen"). Are there more glitches than
usual or is this par for the course? I'm a newbie, only on since July 2.

While these are minor nits overall, the two missing NPCs was frustrating
since I'd have to abandon the jobs to take on another winding up back in
Coronet, half a planet away. Wasted credits with nothing to show for the
travel.

Missions not spawning (in this case, your NPCs) has been a bug for a
long time. I thought it was fixed for awhile, but then started getting
hit by it a few weeks ago again. There is nothing you can do except
sigh, hit the abort mission button, and try again. Sometimes running
out 300m away and then heading back works, but I haven't tried that
trick since Dec I think.

Par for the course. NPCs stuck inside walls has been around forever.
One trick to fix that problem is to lure a target (or duel somebody)
next to the NPC in the wall, then hit them with an area attack. That
will usually get the NPC to aggro you and move out of the wall.

This is still a problem with BH missions. One of my friends is still
trying to get MBH, and two of his missions in a row didn't spawn. If
you think it is bad half a planet away, try it half a galaxy away. One
of his marks was on Lok and didn't spawn, the other was on Rori, and he
bases out of Corellia. It frustrated him so much he took a week off
from the game.
