Lunar shrines, how do they work?

Everytime i go to a location with a purple mark there is nothing happening on the spot marked on the map. What am i supposed to do?

in the open world the behave like events. If people finished the event before you. they need to respawn.

I did them in nmds and nmvs, where this isnt an issue.

but not every sigil has lunar event stuff in them…

I think the map markers provide a general location for events.

I pin it and then find the shrine in the surrounding area, I haven’t found one at the marked location itself.

its just a frustration to check the map, see a purple thing there. ride the SLOW mount that takes over an hour to get there and find out the thing isnt where it says, you spend another hour roaming around trying to find it and it spawns! you click it and theres no mobs to kill so you try to get to a pack of mobs only to find out the time has wore off and you get no credit and have to do it again…

this is the lamest event ever, its so bad - it gets me angry and I never get angry in a video game.

Yeah stupid event, the way this appears to work means a lot of what ifs for the xp buff. When i heard it. i thought lunar shrines where some new shrine that we would unlock and it would stay unlocked. each one would add to our growing buff until it hit the max. not some stupid normal shrine buff.

This event is stupid

The Map System is itself bad. I keep clicking the quest and nothing indicative flashes on the Map. Don’t even know what is going on.

Kill as many enemies while shrine buff is active, even the ones not spawned by activated the shrine.

If you only activate the shrine but dont kill enemies you don’t collect any ancestral favors.

Click shrine → Kill as many mobs as you can while buff is active → Look for next shrine → Kill as many mobs as you can while buff is active → Look for next shrine → Kill as many mobs as you can while buff is active → Lather, rinse, repeat…

Not talking rocket surgery or brain science. It told ya what to do when those windows popped up…

Also, there might be an active shrine then there may not be. Then of course you may or may not get credit for the kills. Sometimes you have a counter and sometimes not. On the right there might be one that despite being done with credit or not it does not go
away. Am i complaining? actually not. I just don’t like inconsistency. I love this game despite the sad fact --LOL-- i am a quarter block from the terminal cable end with lagg being my best friend. so go forth and kill the bad guys!!

There are 2 versions. 1 that can be clicked instant and then kill mobs.
And one when an npc women ask for help so then you have to clear 2 waves. 1 wave of mobs has to be killed to activate the pillar. Sometimes hard.

I can imagine that if you dont have a mount that it can be a hard struggle. If i see one i mark it and then rush with the mount to it by just only watching my mini map and to the rest with xbox controller. Then i am there in seconds.

Ppl say its low effort event. But if you dont have a mount you are probably needed to spawn camp the pillars. Shrines.

I really like the legendary loot bags.
