Valdo's Rest: Influenced but citadel still visible

Hi everyone,

I had Al-Hezmins portal spawn in Valdo's Rest (Burials Chamber), but the portal spawned inside the wall, so I couldn't access the conqueror.
Now there's still (green) influence on Valdo's Rest, but the citadel has also reappeared connected to Burial Chamber.
Influence AND citadel - that isn't normal, is it? See picture

I have run a lot of maps (in Valdo's Rest and in other parts of the Atlas), but there has been absolutely Zero Conqueror activity since that failed Al-Hezmin encounter.
Neither Zara nor Kirac have anything to say about my situation, so I need help here...

Thanks in advance!

PS: Why doesn't the image work? [ img]https://imgur.com/a/lL7mYfO[/img] without the space in the first bracket - what's wrong?

Works as intended. Citadels now only disappear when you talk to kirac and he shows you the location of Conqueror's fortress.

Thanks - I missed that change and was under the impression, that once you get influence, the citadel disapears until you kill the conqueror.

Still, something was weird, because I ran dozens of maps without seeing any conqueror - but...:

After posting this thread, I decided to do some additional tests and removed all watchstones from Valdo's Rest and ran some low level (<= T3) maps in Valdos.
I immmediatly had 2 Conqueror activities in the first two maps I ran (T2 and T3), after that silence for a couple more maps.
Since my Atlas clearly states, that I have to have all 4 stones socketed to spawn a conqueror, I put the stones back in and the first T16 map got me the 3rd spawn. Now that I killed Al-Hezmin (got a awakened gem...), things seem to be back to normal.

Since I had influence but it took me 3 more maps with conqueror activity before Zana offered me the map to the Conqueror fight, I believe something was out of sync after I failed to enter the boss fight earlier... Luckily I found a way out.

--> My take away: If you don't get any conqueror activities for a (too) long time - try removing watchstones and running lower level maps. It helped in my case.

Edit: First map after the fight with Al-Hezmin, the next Conqueror spawned (Drox). The game seems to know, that it owes me some Conqueror action...
