these games are extremely buggy. you can press the button at exactly the right moment but it will bug out and not zap the arcane energy and then count against you. I’ve done it with addons and without and yeah definitely not working as intended. and yes, before anyone asks, I do know how to do the damn thing but it is simply not working

I’ve been having similar issues. It launches a volley of 3-4 bolts in quick succession and it’s not registering all my button presses, so I end up losing and getting increasingly frustrated. Sometimes I press it and it doesn’t do anything. I’ve even had a few attempts where the pylon starts at 0 energy so it automatically loses.
It’s wildly inconsistent and laggy, which is pretty terrible for a timing-based minigame.

Needs to be changed to the medium/hard leyline locked chests.

VERY laggy. Not that hard, just really annoying when you push the correct key at the right time and it actually doesn’t work.

I agree, this is ridiculous. I press the first one, and it always hits me no matter what. The 3 that come in a row, refuse to work because the buttons have a gcd! Literally impossible to do with lag.

I completely agree this is a horrible mini game because it doesn’t register and to be honest it’s almost impossible for me considering my disability. I know these games probably seem easy for the developers to complete since they’ve had months with them, but for me it’s not.

I tried again last night and I was actually able to do it now. I’m glad I waited, it didn’t seem as buggy. But I did it in the middle of the night when less people are long to help prevent lag.
it doesn’t help the lag I hit the balls 50 times and still no reward the 3 chests are very hard also doesn’t help the hit button and lag hits and u miss ball hopefully they will fix it in a hotfix
Thank you for saying so. If you have issues with motor skills this is impossible.
Same issue, they come too fast to humanly hit. It’s kinda messed up.
I’ve completed all of these very early into this patch.
Lag and ping effects things like this don’t forget.
What I ended up having to do is. I sue a 12 button mouse and customized my buttons so where the Up,Left and right are on mine are different than most.
For me what I had to do was forgo using my mouse and place my fingers on the 3,6,9 on my keyboard these things move extremely fast but it’s not random watch them and try to remember the pattern some of them was legit stupid easy there was one that took me around 67 attempts to get the pattern correct. Also you do not have to wait till the orb is on the circle that was a mistake I made thinking that’s how you do this
I noticed there is more input lag if there are multiple people using the same pylon. I’m at the 61.40 22.86 Glowing Arcane Trunk with 109 fps - but there are 5 people here so the puzzle isn’t responsive to input.
So I’ve been trying this puzzle for over 40 minutes now and it just goes batsh!t crazy after about 20 balls. Is this ever going to be fixed?
