Kai Moon Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Defeating Dragon Blue Ink Man minions in the level 15-40 Tsoo villain group does not award progress toward the Ink Man gladiator badge. (Note: All other Blue Ink Man minions correctly award progress. Checked level 30-40 Eagle, Serpent, and Tiger Blue Ink Man minions, and all Blue Ink Man minions in the level 50-54 Tsoo villain group.) Steps to reproduce 1. Have a level 20+ character without the Ink Man badge 2. Go to Siren's Call or St. Martial 3. Observe Ink Man badge progress under Gladiator badges 4. Find and defeat Dragon Blue Ink Man minions (but not Eagle, Serpent, or Tiger) 5. Observe Ink Man badge progress under Gladiator badges Expected results Each Dragon Blue Ink Man defeat adds 1 to the Ink Man badge progress bar. Actual results Dragon Blue Ink Man defeats do not affect the Ink Man badge progress bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ura Hero Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Most of the groups in PVP zones do not count toward badge progress as they are "fake" groups. There have been several posts about similar issues. "Fake" Malta that do not award progress toward sappers for example. AFAIK, it is working as intended even though it may not be working as wanted.

Kai Moon Posted January 6, 2021 Author Share Posted January 6, 2021 There is no separate Tsoo group for Siren's Call. It's the same mobs used in St. Martial, and this bug affects both zones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kai Moon Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 Retested and confirmed this bug is still occurring. These are the "Blue Ink Man" critters in the game: * Tsoo_CoV_Claws_Red_Men "Tiger Blue Ink Man" * Tsoo_CoV_Kama_Red_Men "Eagle Blue Ink Man" * Tsoo_CoV_Katana_Red_Ink_Men "Dragon Blue Ink Man" - does not count for Ink Man badge * Tsoo_CoV_Sai_Red_Men "Serpent Blue Ink Man" * TsooEndgame_BlueInkMan_Claws "Tiger Blue Ink Man" * TsooEndgame_BlueInkMan_Kama "Eagle Blue Ink Man" * TsooEndgame_BlueInkMan_Katana "Dragon Blue Ink Man" * TsooEndgame_BlueInkMan_Sai "Serpent Blue Ink Man" The only critter that breaks the naming convention (added "Ink") is the only one that doesn't count. So I'll bet there's a mismatch between the critter ID and the badge data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
