I'm on the 5th Padawan trial and I've had to restart every single one at least twice because the NPC was not there. Now on the fifth trial I completed it and the NPC is not there after I'm done. Is it this bad for everyone doing the trials?
I can only imagine this is by design to slow down people going towards Jedi. In my 11 months of play I have never seen any missions as bugged as these ones.

Are you getting off of your bike 300m away from the npcs? If you dont they have a chance to despawn.... I did this with every single trial and I went through all 16 UNBUGGED.

Well when I shuttle to the starting NPC I'm always within 300 meters. Should I be driving to them from other cities?

No you should just run to the npc....I've traveled to cities where the npc is within 300 meters and just ran up to him and it was fine....then when I get my wp where to go I rike my bike there until 300 meters and then do what I have to do and go back, once again getting off of bike 300 meters away from the npc.

So I start my 6th mission. Head to Naboo and am just over 300m from my WP. So I run up to the WP. I get excited because I see the NPC and this is the first trial that the NPC is there in less than three tries. Then I get within 10m of the NPC and it disappears...
Must be payback for being a loyal customer with two accounts...

Make sure your not getting aggroed by anything when you are near the NPC as that always seems to cause them to disappear.

I've heard of this bug. I've heard it is more common if you get an aggro before you get to the NPC and the aggro causes the NPC to despawn. Not sure what the deal is on that, but wasn't the Jedi revamp almost a year ago now? Shouldn't this be remedied?

YES!!! Finally on the 7th trial the NPC is there on the first shot. Perfect.... I thought. Get the mission, kill the beast, come back to the WP and the NPC is gone. Just like to have one mission that isn't bugged. To much to ask?

Yeah it should be fixed by now but anything to discourage people from becoming a Jedi even if it is nothing more than an annoying bug is "Working as intended" hehe

Come to think of it I was agroed within 128m of the NPC. Hard not to be on Naboo with all the thugs runnig aorund the cities. I'll try to be careful on the next mission.
And yes. We had a Jedi revamp but there seems to be a directive within the devs to not work on anytihng Jedi related. Bug or not.

cool cool,. I knew I wasnt the only one getting complely frustrated...
quest #1 took 3 tries..
quest #2 got on the 1st try..
quest #3 will try for the 3rd time today.
what frustrates me the most.. is there is no live help.. I cant talk to a csr to tell them how pissed I am, and how much these bugs suck. I need to vent., and they arent around to hear it.. pfft.
you would think that with EVERYONE going through these,..
didnt know about the 300 meters thing.. Ill give that a shot and see how I do.
