It would appear that the EV pillars in hard mode appear to have a problem with bugging out if one side has to click more than the other. If the other side who has fewer clicks finishes first it will bug and the encounter will be un-finishable.

 

Or it will just bug out after the second click.

 

We are also still having troubles with deaths ON the speeder or after just getting off of it standing in front of the lava room.

This is extremely frustrating... my group cannot make any further progress into hardmode EV without the encounter bugging out. Waste of a week's progression...

this bug is easy to not get atm u need to do N S S N in other word north take step 1 first then south i think u get it by now.

its not a bug, thats the the actual "puzzle" mechanic of hardmode.

Can you elaborate a bit more? North has to completely finish Step 1 before South even begins?

We used to have this problem as well, until we started letting the south team complete each level before north.

Havent had a problem since.

 

Try that, see if it works for you too.

we had them bug on us a couple of times this weekend until we looked it up on the forums.

then north first, south on 2nd and 3rd and north first on 4th, no bug

Our HM team figured out that you need to activate the South Pillar first, then you can lock in the North Pillar. You can work on the North Pillar while the South is allinging, but the South must hit the correct symbol first.

no, its a bug.

if it were the actualy mechanic it would reset after a wipe but the consoles remain unclickable if you dont finish the south one first on 2nd and 3rd wheel.

if the consoles are unclickable everyone has to leave the instance, leader resets operations, go back in > clear trash again ...

 

that is definitley NOT the way its supposed to work.

Can confirm that solving the wheels in order of North, South, South, North worked for us on hard mode - using the least/most efficient number of steps given by the Force Junkies web-app.

 

We had it bug out twice before that worked, and we didn't pay attention to which side solved first or bother using the best console, so I can't really say what the exact change was that worked.

Last Friday we first attempted the old SSSS order, but that would lock up the wheels at some point. Going to NSSN seemed to prevent the lock up, but we got overwhelmed by the elites at around the third wheel. We can handle two no problem, but the next three spawning on top of them killed us. Are you guys rotating only on wheel at a time? I.e., don't rotate the first wheel at south at all until north is solved.

 

We tried to go as fast as possible, rotating both wheels and only holding back when either north or south needed to be solved. We also used the optimal direction for each wheel. Going faster is physically impossible, so I doubt we hit the enrage.

Pretty sure the adds are timer based.

We cleared it Saturday. Combinations didn't work. What you need to do is click as soon as they light up and hope you don't get a double spawn. Whenever we tried any kind of combination and not just instaclicking when it lights up = double spawn of elites.

 

Again, after doing this for x amount of times we're notching it down as a bug/dumb luck with spawns.

it doesnt have anything to do with how fast you click it.

its all about how long it takes you to solve it in total, 5 fast clicks in the wrong direction will f*ck you up compared to 2 slow clicks in the right one...

 

and we tested it during the weekend, it only bugs if north finishes 2nd and 3rd one first.

I don't buy this as the "real" solution, only a work around. While the adds are a joke in 8 man, it's basically only a matter of time till you get overwhelmed in 16 considering the mobs have 6x the health of 8 man. They are going to pile up on you.

For us, south locks everytime before we move on. /win

 

Its not a bug, the only bug is that they never told you that you failed at solving it.

Confirmed: To avoid the current bug, and yes it is a bug, just make sure the South Pylon is solved before the North. Adds are on a timer, not triggered based on solving pylons. See my strategy for more in-depth details about how to avoid any frustration.
