Black Abbot Raid Closed.

[Quarion]

We are aware of some issues surrounding the new raid, which may result in an exploitable situation. We have closed the quest so that we may make changes to block the exploits, and hope to have them open again early next week.

We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

I'm sure you'll take flak from legitimate gamers over closing the mission. But, these gamers should also understand that you're working in the best interest of the game. Thanks, Q.

All I can say is thank the gods...

Thank you

Have a great gaming weekend

See ya Stormreach,

Please fix the goggles while you're there.

Please fix the goggles while you're there.

goggles are already fixed, they are destroyed on death.

[Mavnimo]

goggles are already fixed, they are destroyed on death.

that wasn't the problem with the goggles if u bothered to read it. if u have the goggles in inventory or equiped when trying to recall/teleport/slash death out of the quest u get stuck on a load screen and need a gm to get u unstuck.

also glad its closed. at least they decided to say something publicly about it finally.

[Chameleo]

I understand that it needs to be fixed and I am happy that we finally got a response. Just bummed that I won't be able to try it out this weekend as I am finally flagged.

Oh well, plenty of time to flag all of my other guys and gals.

While I haven't done the raid yet and I am clamoring to do so, this exploit/bug was potentially game-breaking. Good job guys.

[Riddikulus]

Good move.

Normally I agree with you Asp, but this was noticed over 36 hours ago. Threads were simply deleted on it, and people were threatened to be banned.

This is an prime example of POOR QA by the staff once again.

[Sharzade]

Fixing those exploits is good. May all the wins be just ones.

[ChildrenofBodom]

I don't get it, why are you happy they close the raid til next week? What is the exploit that is so bad? You guys have never fixed an exploit this fast before. Today was the first day we were going to have all guildies on to try the Abbot raid over and over cause we would always seem to only have 5 on at a time. This is great.....(sarcasm)

Because it's better than keeping it open in its current state.

[Slink]

So does this closure affect the preraid as well or just the main raid?

[Mockduck]

Good move, in my opinion. From everything I've heard, read, been emailed, etc....sounds like it was a real issue.

Be glad they care about the quality of game plan and how exploits effect everyone.
