Me and my friend are playing a coop realm and when we were doing Darak’s boss fight, during his second phase AOE that hit three times and grows each time, my friend and I both crashed at the same time at the third impact.
When we rejoined our game and arrived at the entrance of the boss room, the cinematic didn’t launch / the room had a red foggy floor and Darak wasn’t in the room, it was empty.
We disconnected and reconnected multiple times / got to the room, same thing.
We waited for more than an hour to replay and only mobs had respawned but not Darak.
We can’t go through the room because it has an invisible wall at the end because we did not beat the boss yet and i’m kind of lost on what to do to resolve this except restarting a new game completely.
Here is a link for the Player.log / Player-prev.log :
I hope this can be fixed for the actual coop release
Otherwise the coop is really amazing, thank you for this wonderful game
Quitting to main menu during Falstead Darak’s second phase (for reasons such as attack rune missing when unarmed), makes him disappear but you cant progress as there’s an invisible wall blocking your way.
Same problem, I quit to main menu during Darak’s 2nd phase, and he is now disappeared, empty boss room, cannot continue, played for 20+ hours before this happened
My game crashed just as I was about to defeat Darak’s second phase. When I started the game again, I was by myself in the arena. Darak is gone, but I can’t progress through the invisible wall. Tried going to the city and back and restarting the game, to no avail.
We, me and my teammate, we were playing in the coop and had the same issue. Me and my teammate, we use the same network (just in case).
We were in Black Trench and encountered Darak. In a second try battling him we reached his second stage and were fighting him for some time and then suddenly both of us were disconnected and kicked out to the main menu.
We hit continue, found ourselves at the entrance of Darak’s arena, went to the arena but Darak was not there and to this time he’s still missing.
We tried the following but nothing helped to bring Darak back to the arena.
We teleported via Whispers to other places (Marketplace, Shallows) and returned back to Black Trench (Central Chamber), went to Darak but he did not respawn.
We logged out to the main menu and reconnected again (used both options, “Join” and “Continue from last Whisper”).
Quit to Desktop and launch the game again multiple times.
Checked file integrity in Steam.
We teleported to Nameless Pass to spend some time there, almost an hour, and returned to the Darak’s arena, and he still was not there though enemies and resources respawned in Black Trench.
We changed a server in the game from Europe to Americas.
We can’t proceed further with “Of Rats and Raiders” quest, Darak is not defeated and we hit an invisible wall at the opposite side of the arena’s entrance.
It seems the only solution now, and a discouraging one, is to create a brand new Realm, start all over again, and that’s not about 5-10 minutes of gameplay. And it’s not a guarantee that we won’t have the same issue in the new Realm…
It’s honestly sad to be interrupted by a softlock issue from enjoying your outstanding creation of art
Here’s our data. I’m the host of Realm.
If you need any additional information to research this issue, please, let me know.
I encountered a similar problem.
I was going through phase 2 and crashed. I tried waiting for enemies to respawn, teleporting back and forth, getting killed (a lot), but he’s still hiding. Give me the chance to kill him please
Title: [PROGRESSION BLOCKER] Player cannot complete ‘Of Rats and Raiders’ quest after the game crashes while fighting Darak boss
Description: PC crashed (non-game crash[CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT]) while fighting Darak boss during the Of Rats and Raiders quest. After relaunching PC and game and returning to Darak’s location, Darak does not spawn, the back exit is sealed by an invisible wall, and Rattigan and other NPCs do not spawn when approaching the back wall. Waiting for the area to rest did not fix the issue. The player is given the Plague Ichor item reward for having defeated Darak, but level increased across the island associated with completing the quest do not happen.
Repro:
Advance ‘Of Rats and Raiders’ quest until able to enter Darak boss fight
While fighting the boss, crash or force quit title
Relaunch title and attempt to complete ‘Of Rats and Raiders’
Actual result: The quest cannot be completed. Darak is not present at his dedicated spawn. No cutscene plays on entering the arena. End of quest cutscene with Rattigan does not trigger when approaching the back wall. The rear exit of the area is sealed with an invisible wall.
Expected: When re-entering Darak’s boss arena, Darak’s cutscene intro plays and the player is able to fight Darak, advancing and completing the quest ‘Of Rats and Raiders.’
I’ve been playing Co-op with my husband on my realm. We made it through the Black Trench, beat Darak, and were watching the cutscene following the fight when we both were disconnected from the realm at the same time. When we logged back in, we were at the doorway to the Darak fight, but he isn’t in the room, we’re locked from progressing up the stairs by an invisible wall, our quest lines still say we need to face Darak, and if we try to trade items it says we can’t interact with other players while in a boss fight.
We tried logging out and logging back in and traveling to the Marketplace Whisper in town then back, to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated.
This is for characters named Merebear and TehZeek on realm Statons.
Player.log, Player-prev.log, DataStore Folder, DxDiag.txt, images of issue and crash reports are all in the folder linked below.
Did not fix the issue for me - revisiting Darak’s boss area did not spawn Darak and going to the end of the chamber did not spawn Rattigan and other NPCs associated with the next step of the quest.
