Bug: Ambitious Bandit I

I've gotten this chain a few times and it usually pops on the first attempt. I've tried about 20-30-ish attempts at Northern Forest, Crypts, Chamber of Sins 1 & 2 (just back and forth at the entrance), and nothing so far.

Has anyone else had this prophecy since 2.3.1, and did it work or was it problematic?

I've completed several other prophecies successfully already today.

These are the ones I've had all along:
* Deadly Twins
* The Dream Trial
* Anarchy's End I

I've had others that have come and go without issue, I just haven't completed any of these three yet.

You can't use the same area like that. Zoning back and forth at the entrance (even when creating new instances) will not work. You need to explore totally new areas.

For example, if it doesn't trigger in the Northern Forest the first time, then it will never trigger in the Northern Forest. You'll need to look elsewhere.

Thank you for clarifying. It popped in the Weaver's Chambers.

Ive also found through trial and error that sometimes these type prophecy's can not be found in places with WPs either. Ive had the bandit one before and litteraly went to every single WP in the game and none have it but like you i go to the Weaver's Chamber and there it is. Also had this happen... Checked every WP.. Nothing.. Go to the one area in northern forest you never normally ever have to go to (cant think of the name ATM) and boom there it is. But yeah ive figured out these prophecies seem to be in places without WPs. Areas you have to travel to from another area.

I've tried all known spawn areas for this prophecy and been resetting them for about an hour and a half now and I'm not getting it to spawn them.

are you sure you're in the right difficulty?

So try other areas. Rhys said respawning the same area is a waste of time. And "known spawn areas" for a prophecy that can spawn anywhere there are no bandits is meaningless.
