Kessel's Retreat queue and black ice equipment

Even if you get 20% black ice damage resistance (2 parts t3 of new set) you can't queue in KR. Also, if you link your T3 equipment in guild chat or something everybody see it like it is t2 corrupted/purified set.
Btw, new skirmish descriptions says: "You need at least 20% black ice damage resistance".

You need at least 3 parts of corrupted/purified set to enter.

    OP: You, Sir, are correct. I had a felling this will be bugged, too. Description in queue list says 12K GS and 20% resistance. That's all. But we still cannot queue. Someone is not doing his job, over and over and over..... It is unbelievable how much frustration these kind of problems bring and after all the effort that was needed to create this beautiful game, 10 years from now, we will all remember bugs bugs bugs. (It never says, you need at least 12K, 20% resistance AND 3 pieces, it only says first 2 requirements). I guess I will vote with my wallet.

    Not there yet, but I saw a post suspiciously like this and the dev said zone after putting on your 2 pieces and then try to enter. They said that is a known bug.

    Orignally it was set to 40% black ice resist on preview, when they reduced the percent needed it should actually read in the tool tip greater then 20%

    A QA guy posted yesterday and said if you equip 20% resistance then change maps the game will recognize your 20% resistance and allow you to queue , has anybody tried that if so is it not working because if it isn't it needs reporting.

    It is still as per how the preview server was. I put 2 fully empowered pieces on and attempted to queue and got the error about insufficient stats .
    I then equipped the 3rd piece and was able to queue ( didn't change any map locations - was in Caer Konig throughout ) .
    The entry STILL requires >20% black ice resistance .

    The previous posting was apparently in response to a bug raised by cayapp at the last preview patch where ALL black ice equipment items were showing 0% resistance ( less than 1 day before the live server got the same preview patch ) .

    UPDATE

    Just tried it as per QA dev and changed maps with 2 items and it does NOT work .
    It errors with insufficient stats .

    IT REQUIRES THE 3 ITEMS TO BE ABLE TO QUEUE .

    Probably should put in a report but I can't be arsed with the bug reporting , only so many times you can report the same things over and over and not get taken notice of lol

    You'd think they would've fixed it within weeks of it being reported on preview let alone within weeks of it reaching live. Such neglect in this game. Luckily I didn't have much faith in cryptic and managed to get 3 pieces myself.

    Yeah looks like there's some other screwiness in there too,

    Some serious rubberbanding. Also sometimes when you initiate the final Kessel Fight it will tick down to zero in the group circle and then won't bring you in or initiate the final battle so you have to do it again.

    EDIT: Meaning you have to click on the pillar again to start the countdown again.

    Outside that, the rest of the skirmish does appear to be working correctly. So at least you can get through it with 3 pieces of Ice Gear.

    Yeah pelgrax tried and I did too and it is definitely not allowing you to enter with just 20% even if you swap maps and mess about .

    That was a different issue which got fixed.

    The tooltip is incorrect it should read greater then 20% not just 20% black ice resist.

    Yep, and it's probably easier to fix the tooltip than to fix it the other way. :)
    If you can't stand on a chest, it is a mimic!
