Bug: Skirmish: Rewards
I did not receive the correct rewards in my inventory when opening the Chest. I received Gold and the Potions but not the weapon “Sword of Confusion”.
Feedback: Skirmish
It would be cool if the Ogres summoned by the Portals were Ogre Zombies! (screenshot)

After the final final in the Ashen Battlefield quest, the NPCs that helped are a bit erratic. They run back to their starting point, before running right back to where you are. Xuna ran around some more before saying something and disappearing.
Aquamarine - the tooltip reads a lustrous auqamarince... typo, I suppose.
Took a look over the rewards. I know that they aren't final yet. Just wanted to say that it would be great if you could make the sets of ring/belt/neck have set bonus's like the Frozen set has. Right now it is better to use the frozen set and in alot of cases its better to have blue items slotted then the new purple one's in Sharandar. It would be great if the new ones were best in slot. It also give players another reason to do the content repeatedly. Regen/health seems like the best bonus to give as every class can use it.

the silver gauntlet item you are given for this quest cannot be moved to another bag in your inventory. the first time i tried to move it, i was in the vendor screen. second time was in my normal inventory.
secondly, when i used the item in the quest, it removed it and granted me two rank 2 enchantments... an azure and a silvery. even though this occurred, the quest is still showing as incomplete and i cannot abandon it or complete it as i no longer have the silver gauntlet.
bug: quest: dread spire
the first time i did this quest, it was using an older copy of my main CW. i had not respec'd at that time. i went through the mini-dungeon and killed the end boss and attempted to claim the items in the chest and it kept telling me my inventory was full. i had not yet attempted to complete the other active quest, seizing power. i tried to work around this by removing some items from my inventory but it made no difference. i then completed the seizing power quest and acquired two items that i don't remember what they were... they were new items, not enchantments like i described in my first bug report. after the silver gauntlet was out of my inventory, i still could not take the items out of the chest. it was still saying my inventory was full.
feedback: epic armor: robes of the dread legion
i LOVE the look of this armor. although my current armor is better (stat wise), i took the liberty of transmuting it. my current high vizier armor is dyed and based on the transmute preview, i expected to lose my dye colors... but when it was finished, my dye colors remained intact. i do not know if this is how it is now on the live server, but i definitely like that A LOT. so... good going. good armor designs... i like that we're interacting with the NPCs from the beginning cut scenes. i'm starting to feel like norm from cheers.
When attempting to accept the Seizing Power quest, I get the message "Inventory Full. Unable to add quest "Seizing Power"" My inventory has space in it, so does my quest log.
Study Thyan Writings shows 0/0, after I complete it's still 0/0
Bug: UI
Boons don't show requirements
This place is just brilliant. I thoroughly love the design of it. The only issues I had was the cutscene of Thay was ruined by the fact that it just started to render when the cutscene was ending and the quest completed while I was still fighting the boss, which is odd. I wouldn't mind seeing an achievement in here for finding some hidden and/or oddly placed items.
Feedback: Lair: Ashen Battlefield
Varkoss starts the fight with a sword in his hand, which promptly disappears as soon as he starts fighting and none of his powers even seem to be sword attacks.
Bug: Achievement: Scrying
The Scrying Stone for the Dread Spire (loc 2375, 2234) does not count towards the Scrying: The Dread Ring achievement. Other two scrying stones correctly count.
Feedback: Scrying Stones
While the Scrying Stone for the Skull is very well place, I think the the other two could use some adjustment so they aren't so out in the open.
SOULFORGE
I have to agree here:
Ran some tests last night with the following:
Whisperknife Rogue
Sentinel GWF
Conq. GF
Executioner Rogue
Destroyer GWF
Faithful DC
Soulforge is VERY, HIGHLY unbalanced ..it creates godlike DC's, GWF's and Rogues who with armor swapping can create chains of immunity and healing while other classes like CW are insta murdered twice in the same spot.
This change should NOT make it live.
These two bugs are related. if your first inventory bag is full, you cannot get the silver gauntlet because the gauntlet cannot be placed anywhere other than the first inventory bag, thus the attempt to acquire the quest fails.
Dye colors transfer on live as well. Hopefully this is WAI and will be preserved!
Entry door states it requires a Thayan Vault Key to enter, when you can enter after buying the Thayan Lair Key from Dell McCourt
Feedback: Dread Spire:
Dread Spire looks amazing. So many unique graphics and such. There are however, a few places where some of the statues and columns appear to be floating. This could be intended and look awesome, could not. Still a great looking place.
Bug: Dread Spire:
Thayan Servitor gets stuck inside pillar at (-1282, 148). Servitor can still attack you, but melee characters cannot damage it.
I confirm and second this.
my first inventory bag was not full when i got the silver gauntlet.
they are related in that the same quest is bugged. but they are two separate issues. in your issue, you were not getting the silver gauntlet and not getting the quest even though your inventory was not full. on two separate occasions, i got the quest, got the silver gauntlet... the first time i did it, i didn't try to move it or mess with it until i got to the chest at the end of dread spire. when i attempted to take the contents of the chest, i got the message that my inventory was full even though it was not. i even removed things from the first bag and it was still giving me that message. and even after i used the silver gauntlet i still got the inventory full message.
the bug i reported happened the second time around.
it needs re work since if i understand it correct it can be on once every min but for 10 sec only and u need to do damage whole min to can charge it ,make it to can be on all the time till u exit combat once u stack it and number of stacks should be reduced atm it is very bad and not worth time
or armor swapping should be impossible when in combat.
Thank you again!

Opened the Arcane Coffer at the end of Dread Spire. This quest did not show completeness of that quest, and now I cannot delete it from my quest log.
after you open the arcane coffer yuo still have this quest undone, like nothing happens but you lost the item, you get the drop , but the quest don't show complete. Here the screen:

The area surrounding the final fight area lacks invisible walls. It can lead to you ending up below the area with no way out.. I wouldn't mind if this kept the way it is if falling down the pit autokills you and there is a nice surprise if you manage to walk all the way around the stonework there to the other side.
same problem
I got some additional keys for the Dread Spire Dungeon... but on the end sometimes I can't claim my reward from the end chest!
Bug: Dread Ring Campaign
I decided to make the key for Valindra's Tower on first round of quest completion... but then again I can't finish my "A New Day" quest from Knox and this lead to ---> unable to progress further into the campaign.
The last staircase before the library, there is a character stuck in the statue. If you bypass he will come out later when in combat in library.
Also a few instances of floating statues
Unnecessary repetition of Boon name in tooltip description. This also does not occur on other Boons.
After collecting the three Rods, I was initially unable to interact with the sphere. Relog solved it. Yesterday the quest worked fine.
The rod pieces look too much like arcana skill nodes, this would be good to change, mainly if someone doesn't have any arcana kits with them and just passes by the mission objects. (Like me the first time I did the quest.)
Bone Golem does not count as a skeleton for this quest. If this is intended, it is very strange since the tone of the quest is to kill things that were brought about through necromancy. Bone Golems seem to be nectromantic.
I don't want to ruin anyone's fun of jumping and climbing on things, but I was able to get to and stand on the very tip of the dragon skeleton's wingtip. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be able to get there. There's also lots of flat gray sand area that you can get to out by the wall of the ring.
*Edit* I do finally hit an invisible wall. Map attached.
