The Widow In Red

[Crasical]

Some bugs I noticed doing the reworked seasonal content, 'The Widow in Red'.

 

Ritual summoning circle spawns with Council

 

Mission vs. Countess Crey rewards vanguard merits for some reason?

 

 

Red widow doesn't despawn after (or before) the cutscene with Lord Recluse and remains on map, but invincible.

For the merits, do you have the Vanguard day job effect active?  The Vanguard day job awards 2 Vanguard Merits upon completing any non-AE mission whilr active, not just missions in RWZ.

That would do it, mystery solved.

Yeah, I noticed the council guys, too.  Wait!  What the heck are you guys doing here!? Funny.  😄

So the circle having enemies is a known issue, but it's stranger still.  If you're a villain type the circle spawns with 5th Column instead of Council, and for whatever reason not all the mobs that spawn are flagged hostile.  They also don't fight back if attacked, giving you a smidgen of free experience for your troubles.

 

Red Widow also lacks a description, not even a placeholder like the jerks in Sgt. Schorr's arc.
