sorry for two posts in such a short time but ehh need to be seperate

Guild was gonna go do bot towers tonight. Ppl started clicking their groups up and hey guess what.. they are going up solo. Now everyone needs a bot key to go on a bot tower raid.. fun. I dont mind that so much, but if they do that for agnarr it will be like emp 1.53 and ill be one pissed druid.

My guild is speculating whether this is a bug or what, cuz we think they would at least mention it in the patch messege but /shrug. Anyone else try to do towers tonight?

btw monk friend just told me it was on test like this for a while now.. hehe maybe i shoulda at least checked the safehouse, but still this is something that SHOULD have warranted a patch messege.

That sucks! If they're going to do that, they should at least put that key on your keyring.

I'm betting this is a bug. Doesn't seem like something they'd do out of the blue and without announcing it, especially not after this long. /positive-Sony-mode off

It was /bugged on Test, went live anyway...

Agnarr keys still work for the whole raid though.

Spoke to a guide about this last night and was told it would be reported as a bug. About 30 mins later I get another tell saying it doesn't appear to be a bug, but is a fix.

Guess they couldn't find any more doors to fix and had to go screwing with this.

Ummmm hello, remind you about the horses saga, took 3 years for that to get "fixed".

If this is a fix, I'm majorly glad I finished my key sunday night. Also I always thought this wouldn't go on the keyring becuase it was group, if it is going single it should at least go on the keyring. Would be better to change it back to group though. Thinking of all those people who destroyed key pieces thinking they'd never need them.

I certainly hope this isn't true. So many times I could have had this key :(

I'm curious.

Has anyone tried it today since the quick patch this morning?

From the developers page on the eqlive site.

Bastion of Thunder keys
There are two keys in the Bastion of Thunder that stopped working properly with the last patch. They are supposed to teleport the key-owners group, but they are now only taking the key-holder.

We hope to have that fixed some time tomorrow or early Friday. At the same time we'll be moving those keys to the keyring.

We're sorry for the problem.

Posted the 27th. I consider the scheduled downtime and developers sections to be mandatory once a day checks and the other upcomming ones once a week checks.

Not only was it a bug but we will be getting a benefit of not having to carry them around anymore. Some of you have some words to eat :)

As someone who whined that they should use the friggin key ring they finally created....

I could eat my words but this should have been from day one of PoP.

So, let me just say, nice job SOE. I'm happy you putting it on key ring. Thank you for listening to us.
