[Mastery Unlock] Holy Roman Empire - Thou shalt not pass

Age of Empires IV IV - Report a Bug
1

Hello,

Happened to me yesterday while trying to unlock the 12th Holy Roman Empire mastery: Thou shalt not pass (build the Elzbach Palace, then build 3 keeps within influence).

Two games in a row, I built the palace then 3 keeps in its influence.
First time: on an island
Second time: at the center of the map
Both times, the keeps were only within the influence of the palace.

Since the mastery was not unlocking, I tried again with having the 3 keeps within influence of both the Elzbach Palace (33% damage reduction) and a Town Center (Emergency repair ability).
This time it worked.

So the Mastery only unlocks when building 3 keeps within influence of either Town Center + Palace or Town Center alone but after building the Palace (cannot test anymore since I got it).

I do not think it was intended that way, which is why I report it as a bug.

Can confirm this issue. It is either not working as intended, or the description is worded too confusingly and one of these two should be fixed.

Thank you @Kzzet and @KaiserWilliams! I’ve logged this and we’ll start tracking it internally. Appreciate it!

Me pasa el mismo problema, intente con puestos de avanzada, torres de muro, torres de asedio y con fuertes, no hay torres de vigilancia, como menciona la maestrĂ­a Âżse me ha pasado algo por alto?, solo le afecta la influencia el puesto de avanzada y el fuerte.
Lo intente con la influencia del town center i sin ella, con el puesto fortificado i sin fortificar i no consigo la maestrĂ­a. ÂżHay alguna soluciĂłn?

Hola, yo llevo casi 3 semanas en el mismo punto
El problema es la traduccion y la explicacion
Yo no se como se hace, pero si se como lo he conseguido
He hecho 3 puestos de avanzada, 3 torres de muro y 3 Castillos/Fortaleza/Fuerte
Todos bajo las 2 influencias, de el palacio y del centro urbano (comprueba que estan bajo la influencia, aparece encima de la vida cuando seleccionas el edificio)
Espero que te ayude
Un saludo,
Matias

Many thanks for telling, it was building the keeps under the TC influence also. Spanish translation doesnt help either, it says “surveillance towers” instead keeps…

Almost June 2022, this bug remains unfixed.

EDIT: Gracias por las pistas! It turns out that you need to build the Elzbach Palace as well as all 3 keeps within the influence of your main town center. Secondary town centers won’t do. Building outposts or wall towers is not needed.

This is of course not explained in-game and it’s still a bug in that mastery.

06/16/2022 Still reproducible
In french the mastery demands 5 Donjons (keeps).
This keeps happening and it is 100% reproducible.
I’ve completed it 5 times, and it is still not granting me completion.
I am just going to stop trying.
