My Lost Foot

[Archived Post]

Anyone found Xiress? I've seen groups of people swarming around looking and not heard of anyone finding Xiress yet.

I did Xiress on my second attempt.
The problem I had on the first attempt was that sh spawned way too close to the Building, which caused the destroids harassing her to spawn inside the wall making the unattackable. I had to change instance and try again and everything spawned a jump to the left and was fine. I bugged it and expect that the problem people are facing is that for them Xiress spawns even further to the right and too is inside the building wall.

I haven't done the mission since beta, but she was never hard to find before. She'd spawn inside the green circle indicated, just SE of the Elder Wyrm area. She might have been taken away by another player though, which is a bit of a problem with open world escort missions.

You know what would be nice? They recently implemented it so that escortees appeared on your radar as gray icons, it'd be nice if they did this even if you just had the "starter" portion of the mission, so that if someone else was walking with the escortee, you could see where they were progressing.

She is there, sometimes. Either the respawn is bugged or really really long.

If you do a /target xiress it shows the bigfoot is inside the building. I went though 27 instances the other day and each one was in the same place. Inside the building.

Went through all 35 instances that were spawned yesterday, every single one had her inside the darn building, felt like such a extreme amount of wasted time, but I just had to check.. I want to do all the missions I can. All 35 instances had a bugged(?) James Harmon IV for Waterworks Front (forgot the mission name) too.

Both those quests worked great in the headstart. Seems something recent has completely broken both of them.

I finally found an instance where this NPC wasn't inside the wall...

...and there's no option to talk to her. She just stands there on the sidewalk.

The problem with the James Harmon quest (Waterworks Watcher or something like that) is that it bugs out when someone fails the mission and restarts before the civillians have respawned.

You can start the quest again and do the initial attack but when you get the escort part he stands around waiting for the civillians who haven't respawned, and when they finally do respawn he doesn't do anything.

If you're lucky enough to find an unbugged version of the quest and you fail it then don't start it again until the civillians have respawned and it shouldn't bug out

That's still not an unbugged version of the quest unfortunately, as her captives (destroids) have spawned in the wall still, you can only talk to her when you kill the destroids.

She's still spawning in the wall :(

Not the best solution but if you guys are around when they restart servers for maintenance etc, log in and do them then. My lost foot and the MC quest where you have to get the guy doing his speech, both work a couple of times before bugging but then stay bugged until next reset. If you manage to find the lost foot guy be sure to do the quest solo. 5 times grouped = 5 bugs, 1 time solo = worked fine.

i was able to "unbug" this quest last night. here's how:

I agro'd the 3 destroids near the part of the wall that sticks out, this is where she's hiding. I simply put up my block, walked over to the destriods until they started shooting at me, then i backed away next to the wall until i got out of line of sight of them, when they followed me over, they agro'd xires and she eventually used a move that got her stuck to the outside of the wall. she did kill the destroids though.

so i waited for another respawn of the destroids, and agro'd them in the same manner. this time xires was out of melee range of them, but stuck on the wall. one of the destroids agro'd her and killed her. when she respawned, she was in the proper position with her captors guarding her.

I was able to defeat them and complete the mission, on the second try. my nemesis decided to send me a welcoming party during my first try, (they killed her, not me).

i went back a few times to check that she was respawning in the proper area, i saw that there was at least one other person that was able to finish the quest before i saw her clinging to the wall again. not sure what causes that to happen; but with a little patience and some creativity, it can be finished.

did it similar to the poster above me.

the trick is that you have to get Xiress killed, so that she will spawn in the correct place.

this worked for me:

drag as many mobs as you can towards the wall where she is stuck, then fly up - the mobs will attack and kill her.
She will respawn just down the street a bit and you can kill the two mobs next to her and then talk to complete mission. She will then offer an escort quest (which you can make a bit easier by clearing the street before you talk to her). If you fail the escort quest she will respawn in the correct location.

you can find Xiress in the wall by typing /target Xiress

I did all of what you said last night (several times) but she keeps getting stuck just a little up the street (opposite the corner of the street that leads up to the worms) and I can't complete the escort.

Test Server patch notes mention this, so hopefully soon we'll have a totally unbugged version. :D

Tried the pull and have Xiress get killed, but Xiress ends up winning. Even when pulling the 3 seperate groups in the area... well with 2 groups Xiress wins with third I wa no longer able to pull Xiress from the wall.

Sadly, I am at level 26, this along with Water Watcher are the only 2 missions I have. Water watcher - well can't complete because appearently it is on a timer.

Damn does this game need more missions!

if this wasnt fixed in the patch,

keep dragging mobs to her, she doesnt regen health so will eventually die

she respawns halfway up the block on the same side, but you must kill two mobs next to her before she is interactable
