    Bug: Items
    Dread Servitor blues are listed salvagable. This is happening with Trickster Rogue ones at least, can't speak for other classes.

    Just to rule out more mundane causes besides bugs.

    Was this on a level 60 character? Was this on the preview server?

    Thanks for continuing to give feedback guys! We are currently investigating. If you are noticing issues with a character struggling to start tasks please try copying a fresh character and seeing if they experience the same issues. It could be related to us making changes to the Campaign while you guys are in the middle of it.

    Feedback: Gauntlet Rewards
    I really hope the rewards out of the gauntlet chests are placeholders because level 60s chests shouldn't be dropping rank 1 enchantments and white quality refining stones. Even with the platinum one, it becomes just getting more of the same.

    Feedback: Daily Quests
    The daily quests are exactly the same on Saturday and Sunday. This is the second weekend in a row this has happened so either it is by design or a bug. Consecutive days shouldn't have the same quests.

    Craft a Gauntlet in the campaign window and use it in the dread fort ( dunno if that is the right name) and the quest then moves on and you can turn it in.

    Why when I transferred my lvl 60 character that had finished Sharandar and went to get the starting point of Dread Ring I; 1. Could not get General Whatever her name to give me the quest to start ;2 I now have to redo the who first campaign. I feel that I having to reinvent the wheel here. I did not see anyone posting this, so I must of missed some memo or something.

    1. Did you talk to Knox first?

    2. Sharandar tasks not showing as complete is due to the way the character copy system works. It doesn't copy over which tasks you completed. There is really no reason to redo the first campaign on the preview server.

    I did know to do that, when clicking on the dread ring box it directs you to the General and not the Sargent. It something I overlooked, and when I get a chance I will try and see if I can get this going.

    On brighter note, great job to the guys who created this world. Thanks for creating a second job for me :)

    After finishing the 3 quests and going to get the quest to get the coffer, it says that my inventory is full, but i have 15 open slots left? Did I forget to do something?

    Bug: Achievement - Scrying the Dread Ring

    No system notification or journal update given after third scrying stone used.
    Definitely not an Arc User.

    Thank you all for your continued dedication. Speaking of the rewards in Arcane Coffers, the gauntlets should list what upgrades they are able to pull from the Coffers in an update either later this week or early next week (I don't know when that change will get to preview, but it is coming, I assure you!)

    This also will come with a reward table update to some of the later tiers of the Gauntlets/Coffers. Something to keep in mind is that these are something you can collect every single day...forever! The value of these Gauntlets exists over very long periods of time, and provides access to one of the Artifacts at the highest tiere :)

    And I would hope that what comes out of the chest would have at least a tiny bit of worth to a level 60 even with the lowest quality gauntlet. Rank 1 enchantments don't.

    I moved items out of the first inventory bag and it allowed me to accept the quest. I am not sure if anyone else had this problem. A bit annoying.

    Dell has audio speech from a Sharandar campaign NPC, which doesn't match up with the text.

    I was able to complete this yesterday. There are some graphic issues that I noticed with the Dread Ring Campaign window. Even though I was on that page and both the scrying and the gauntlet noted as available I could click on them and get the pop up but when I clicked start nothing would happen. So a ran into the Dread spire and still nothing, I could get the pop ups but was not able to complete them. I ran through and killed the Knight and tried again with no success. While sitting there I clicked on Sharandar Campaign and then Clicked back on Dread Ring. At this point the scrying and gauntlet would work and they completed giving me the progression to the next step. So my biggest problem was that when I thought I was on the Dread Ring Campaign window I wasn't really.

    Yeah it's a minor annoying bug?
    The very first time you open the campaign window after you have logged on notice that all the boons will still be locked and the forge silver gauntlet task says it is locked too like this -

    You need to click on the place in the top left where it says Dread Ring Campaign and this will happen -

    Bug: Dread Spire - rewards bugged
    Dread Spire should reward a Greater Mark of Power when completed on a Tuesday. I didn't get one.

    Just multi copy your characters over to generate the items you want to. Strip the enchants off, take your AD on each copy and buy the combine materials and put the items in the mail to your @account or get a group together and form a guild for additional vault space over your personal vault space. Delete the characters after you strip them and repeat till you have enough mats to combine to get the high level enchants.

    Granted it would be nice to be able to grab the new items to get for graphic issues and stat issues or testing the top tier but I don't see that happening anytime soon. I do like the new Soulforge change and I can really see the Vorpal being great for the HR, both of which I have perfects on my HR doing as I described as well as I am running R9's on everything else. I can strip of the top gear and throw on a set of blues with R6's and test side by side the same mobs to find out what it will take to fight well.

    Yeah the bug is that you only get the epic mark if you use a key to open the chest.

    Hey guys, good feedback. I will talk to some people about getting a way for you guys to get access to new stuff in a store on the test server in the future, although that probably wont happen for Shadowmantle :) As far as Lair rewards go, the only way you can collect rewards in a lair is by using a key. I will talk to some people about ways to make this more clear or understandable! Thanks for the great feedback guys. Keep it coming!

    You do get the basic rewards without the key , its just the purple quality catalyst that you don't get , in the feywild campaign you get given one key per day for free from a little leprechaun standing outside the instance so that you get access to the end of instance chest , maybe that could be added to Dread ring instances , either that or make it clear in large writing that you only get the epic catalyst if you first purchase a key, sadly it seems most people pay little attention unless its written in large preferably red letters .

    It's maybe a bug in the code:

    Bug: Skirmish: Treasure don't collectable
    I haven't the chance to loot the treasure. I bought 8 Keys and i can run Death Spire every time i want now. It doesn't consume the key at go in only if you can loot the treasure. But this is a problem, because it stay as like you don't have the permission to open it after you use 1 key before. So buying more than one key a day are useless in that matter if i only can use 1 key a day. We need an answer if it's intended to only able collect 1 dailychest and 1 keychest a day or if you can infinite keys a day on such a Greater Mark of Power-dungeon-day.

    Edit:
    Feedback:Campaign Rewards
    You make the same error the second time. You give us the possibility to gain stats, but not every build or class can use them good as other. I wish that you can grant independent of the own gear increases of the stat values. What this mean?

    Thayan Apprentice Technique:

    Grant 125 Power and Movement OR 125 Critical Strike and Movement

    I wish that they grant 125 Power and Movement and additionally 0,5% Damage Increase and Movement Speed. OR 125 Critical Strike and Movement and additionally 0,5% Critical Chance and Movement Speed.

    Thayan Initiate Technique

    Grant 250 Life Steal OR 250 Regeneration

    I wish that they grant 250 Life Steal and additionally 1% Damage Gained as HP. OR 250 Regeneration and additionally 0,5% HP-regeneration.

    Thayan Adept Technique

    Grant 3% Deflect Severity OR 250 Armor Penetration

    I wish that they grant 3% Deflect Severity. OR 250 Armor Penetration and additionally 1% Resistance Ignored.

    Then you have bonuses, that will help low geared in choosen aspect, but don't kidding people, that already have a lot of stats.
