Unreachable Minion

[Magick.Merryl]

Mission: Steal Book from Ghost Widow from Matthew Burke.

 

Last minion is stuck behind the wall in the jail room of this Arachnos map.

 

I have encountered this issue before and when I ran the mission last night it happened again. I reset and ran the mission again with the same result. There is one minion behind the wall on the bottom floor of the jail room.  I logged out at that point.

 

This morning I ran the mission again (and this is the THIRD TIME IN A ROW) with the same result. Petition and GM_Crumpet came to my rescue.

 

This seems to be a constant issue with this map type as I had the same thing happen back in July which was also petitioned and GM_Smol responded to the issue.

 

Cheers

Arachnos maps in general are pretty broken since they have actual map areas behind walls and under floors. While not too common on other Arachnos maps, there have been several defeat all missions on Arachnos maps where the mobs spawn in these inaccessible spaces as a normal spawn point for who knows what reason. Just as bad are escort missions, such as the one where you have to retrieve the 3 Rikti for Kelly Uqua. I have routinely found that one of the 2 Rikti you actually have to escort (the third runs off claiming to be fine alone) will somehow manage to get under a ramp leading out of one of the depressed hall corner rooms and make his way below the floor to the sub-floor the map has as scenery. This normally happens if I shortcut the corners to speed the map instead of running to the middle of room and waiting for the escorted Rikti to reach me and position himself to navigate the ramp.
