stoped from been an @/(%&/%....now they come whit the excuse:

Bug Fixes

* In the Slavers' Exile dungeon, the entrance leading to the final boss, Duncan the Black, will now be closed unless all party members have completed the appropriate steps in the quest "The Last Hierophant."

is was no a bug...you made it like that and now you say was a bug?? Damn anet you running out of excuse now!!!

why dont you fix the real thing that sux here: Attack on Jalis's Camp...when you get killed is return you to Eye of the north!! and that is a real bad joke!!

Is no a mission to return you to the city
If you get returned to someplace should be the outside map, no the damn city
and is a @(/%&&% quest no a mission to kick you out!!

but no, you hate the ppl fun and now come whit the lame excuse:

Bug abusers got pwned.

[edit]Attack on Jalis' Camp is [Difficulty: Master]. :]

no just no.
Its a Attack on jalis's camp is a MASTER quest for a reason. And if you get mapped to EoTN, just map back to Olafstead or Central transfer chamber and go back to battledepths.

To be fair, The Duncan run did seem like an exploit as defeating him crossed off all the other bosses on the quest. It would have been better if he could still be run, but without the quest completion. At any rate Anet 'fixing' the bug isn't a bad thing unless you wish to skip a lot of effort which will probably get you other nice drops anyway.

It's not really a bad thing, and I don't believe Anet should, as you say, 'be stoped'. I wouldn't think they deserve a stoping, whatever that is.

And in the process, they managed to nail everyone who wanted to take friends along. Now, everyone does all the quests, or you can't get in. Generally the easiest "fix" to code, but the least appealing for a social game. Works just fine if they stop pretending they want people to group.

Whirlwind · Sep 18, 2007, 02:01 AM // 02:01

Well, then you could just kill him and drop the quest when back in the outpost and repeat, so it would be the same ~

Dr Strangelove · Sep 18, 2007, 02:02 AM // 02:02

It would be more social if you could just skip all the missions and go play with your friends at the end. It would also be retarded, get over it. There's no reason everyone should be able to skip to the end of the elite dungeon.

Also, deciphering the OP gave me a headache. Stope it.

Don't even try to play the pity card. All of the other 3 areas are very short. I beat them in one sitting with henchmen. I'm sure they're much easier with real people.

They're also very rewarding. I got 3 onyx before I even saw Duncan.

I pity your friends if they can't have fun together doing anything else.

yeah, because that area is the foundation for 'social activity'... That's like saying that you should be able to get into Hard Mode without actually finishing the game... get there.

Evilsod · Sep 18, 2007, 02:44 AM // 02:44

Lol, these threads were so obviously going to turn up the moment they fixed it.

the fact the OP deems Attack on Jalis' Camp as bugged because he gets wiped in it really makes me wonder if he's even capable of doing Slaver's as a whole.

Skyy High · Sep 18, 2007, 02:47 AM // 02:47

Excuse me, I need to go assure my brain that the bad men aren't going to hurt it anymore.

OP, the bug was an exploit that needed to be stoped, so Anet stoped it. They don't care if it stopes you and your friends from abusing the exploit, as long as it stopes people like you taking advantage of it. Now, don't let it stope you from beating Duncan. Stope?

quickmonty · Sep 18, 2007, 02:56 AM // 02:56

They fixed an obvious bug and now people are pissed? QQ

Gah, stope with the bad spelling SerenitySilverstar. It's interesting to note that the vast majority (from what I can see) supports Anet's decision. I wouldn't mind going through all the bosses. They don't have to be done in a row after all.

arsie · Sep 18, 2007, 03:04 AM // 03:04

I reckon the OP's friend promised to take him there later today.

Personally don't care, and I don't ask for pity. I haven't gotten there yet, and decided not to even bother with getting run there. My point, which you seem to have missed entirely, was that ANet claims they want people to play in teams and groups, and yet "fixes" like this, while easy to code, will cut down on the groups able to get together in that area. Myself, I hero/hench everything. I play with exactly one RL friend, and we duo + hero when we're on together.

Let's make it simpler: a better fix, and one that would still encourage grouping, would be to make each portion of the quest independant. You can't get the quest reward unless all the bosses are defeated. This is just more of the locked gates and forced linearity that prophecies lacked entirely (and that lack was part of what made Prophecies such a great game- freedom to do what you wanted. YMMV)

Edit for a poor choice of words and fixing a few typos
