Is Lord Poincelot still non-functional in Lammannia?

[Bob_of_QF]

EDIT: Could not be more simple-- the copy process is somewhat broken. Create a fresh toon-- go to the Test Dojo. Ask Poincey. Get L-Turbine Points. Logoff. Delete fresh lvl 1 toon. Log on with copied toon. LOL!

Thanks to MasterKernal for pointing out this work-around.

So. I'd never really played on the Lammannia server before, but after seeing the announcement about a new dungeon? Why the heck not?

A couple of hours later (downloading everything into a fresh directory, as instructed, then long updates, then even more updates... ) I'm in the game, with a copied Warlock (an epic toon I'm familiar with the most)

No ship, of course-- locate the training DoJo, no problem. Make a guild, have the Guide person upgrade it to 200, then pick up tons of plat, go build the ship (after buying it, of course).

All smooth as butter.

But. Some of my favorite ship buffs? Use those darn crystals. No problem, right? Lord Poincelot gives you the Lamannian T-points... right?

Wrong. Wrong. And? Wrong.

Speaking to him in the test dojo, he seems to think he's already allocated my daily allotment... well? Maybe he did--open the Lammanian store-- nope. Zero TPs.

Try speaking again-- same error "I gave'em to you already, bub. Bugger off" or words to that effect. >.<

Is there a known work-around for this ... ahem.... "feature"?

Thanks!

Lord Poincelot worked for me. However, the adventure pack is not available in the store, so no luck.

The guest pass IS available; perhaps you can ask a VIP to buy it for you.

Lord Poincelot works fine for me.

Create a new character, run to DoJo and try to speak with Lord Poincelot again. Any newly created or TR'd characters are able to get points from him (which makes "1 time/day" rule completely pointless…).

Nope, it's not. :-(
It is indeed listed in the store, but it's not showing up in the inventory.

Yeah, as a non-VIP, I was surprised that I was able to buy it - TP gone - but nothing in my inventory.
I wonder if it is different for VIP.

My answer was about VIP. It's pointless to get passes without the actual pack/being VIP anyway.

In any case, developers have fixed it already and the pack is inside the DDO Store.

THANK YOU-- that is so obvious. Which is why I did not think of it. Duuuh... I has the dumbs....

The "bug" would be a copied toon gets nothing? Ha!

Thank you, again! Will try this ASAP.

I am a VIP, if it matters-- my copied toon suffers from the "bug" with Sir P.

I will now try a fresh rolled noob-- TP is TP, right? Ha!

If you tp out of the dojo, buy a cheap item from the store and go back and talk to him again he will give you more points.


Works an unlimited amount of times
