    I've completely given up with respect to this. It's apparent to me at this point the their upcoming Module 4 as well as new zen purchases are much more important than than in-game progression to them. This is a real shame and the reputation they are getting from these types of problems on other mmo sites are alarming.

    Funny thing is I need to buy zen to convert to AD to buy a few high level enchants... Not going to do that until I get the armor pieces I need from chests though. So by not fixing this, they kinda hurt themselves....

    If it wasn't intentional, it would have been fixed long ago.
    There are some other bugs obviously intentionally kept unfixed - like GWF roaring, HR healing, CW wrong damage calculation, TR augmented companion not going on stealth, etc.
    We will see tomorrow after patch, really hope I am wrong.

    Just curious as to why you think it may be intentional as it stops people from spending money? In my opinion, I don't subscribe to the conspiracy theory, and think that its just a matter of they got too much happening. They have built too many roads too quickly and don't have the infrastructure to maintain them. They should have played SimCity to learn that lesson :D.

    Some people I know are still getting same loot from chest, BUT some are getting more random. Maybe it's the selection of people I know?

    As for locking a poor Dev in a closet until this is fixed - augh. :( Don't make me relive nightmares of working on NWN Classic modules where bugs just randomly pop up even if you put in every letter of coding in a script correct. HAMSTER happens!

    Somewhere some poor Dev is being driven nuts by this as "the job to do until it's done". Fixes aren't always immediate, nor easily visible.

    I'm still waiting on Fey Thistle to not initiate "combat jogging". Meanwhiles I cope in RP as being a dragoness on alert, or people ignore it.

    There's a big long list of bugs out there that will get fixed. They fixed that skill node in the Death Forge after all.

    No. A forum admin said something to the effect of: 'this is a bug. thanks.'
    Look around a little, it's the 7th post down on one of the threads on this bug.
    One positive thing is that I was able to farm the heck out of PK yesterday and I sold a bunch of vorp shards at 17k each. Lesser Plague Fire, here I come!

    Ive had dozens of runs in FH and Karrundux and all resulted in a el cheapo salvage belt.

    Ive stopped DDs for gear farming until such a time I know its fixed. Quite frustrating in the end.

    Sadly, farming the AoW was one of my objectives for that class before the nerfs, as I dont really see using it much after that.

    No, I saw the Admin post you're talking about. When I said dev, I meant dev. I don't remember where I read it, but it only said "we're looking into it".

    After today's "patch", are you still curious or non-believing in conspiracy theories? :)

    I'm told that the Devs are aware of these issues plaguing Delve Chests:
    • Delve Keys not Working Correctly
    • Delve Chests repeatedly giving the sale loot on each Delve.
    They are indeed working to resolve these. However, I do not have any more details or an ETA beyond that.

    Hey guys,

    Had a pow-wow with some of the parties looking into this. They are aware of this issue and are working on it. Things are a bit hectic with M4's launch getting closer and closer, but I'll keep on them about this. Unfortunately, I have no concrete ETA on a fix at this time.

    Just to make it clear:

    The 'same contents' aspect affects all dungeon chests (don't know about lair chests such as Witch's Fen, etc) at all times, not just during delves.

    During Delves, if you ran a dungeon once, all later runs will have chest locked, despite having keys in inventory. GM "Abort Quest" doesn't fix the locked chest during Delves.

    Running any dungeon more than once (with what seems like any person you ran the dungeon with once before) results in the locked chest bug, BUT GM "Abort Quest" WILL work (at least for me it worked 4/4 runs and had other people in party have success).

    To add: yes, it does also affect lair chests.

    Sorry to interrupt and sorry me for not reading trough the entire thread, but does this "bug" include things like i have since a few days (although i pay every month a bit to support the game), that when i go into dungeons, i only get nothing or just blue item, while my teammates get boringly the same, but still epic loot. I did ToS, Idris, FH and only blue HAMSTER. Is this part of a bug?

    yes.
    your loot roll was a blue item (worst of the 4 possible tier drops, 3 of which include purples)

    "Things are a bit hectic with M4's launch getting closer and closer"

    - Why on earth are you focusing on releasing module 4 when you can't even fix these huge bugs? Me and 4 IRL friends gave neverwinter a try and started out from beginning 2-3 weeks ago, and as soon we got lvl 60 and wanted to try out epic dungeons and farm some gear we got the same chest loot over and over again, but as we were new players we had the patience and waited for patch 20140724 to fix it, but obviously that didn't fix it and we thought - ok now 31 july they will definitely fix it.

    What on earth did you even did this patch? I can't see the patch notes, please tell me. Probably launching new things and events instead of fixing old bugs.

    Please reply on this dear manager and moderator.

    .

    they have a hard release date they promised for mod4. That is top priority, unless something major like a server crash happens.

    The patch notes have 2 items: the probation implementation for player security, and the Wonders of Gond event.

    Why are they releasing a new event like Wonders of Gond instead of fixing this chets bug? This thread has been here since 20th july, it feels like all the moderators are ignoring us. This can't be a really huge issue to fix compare to releasing new events/working on module 4. Don't you think that they will lose a lot of players due to this? I don't understand this.

    Yeah, I hope akromatik can get the message across that the 'success' of the mod4 release will be stunted by this bug alone. I for 1, and my family, will not be in any rush to play neverwinter (besides crafting or dailies) until this bug is resolved, regardless of mod4.

    The event team (and there is one) isn't in charge of dungeons, and the event has been in the calendar since before the bug happened.

    Just run vt, tos and yes the bug is still there.
    My guild used to have 40+ online when I log in, now I call it lucky when I see 10 people.
    Who in their right mind, would want to grind some dungeons knowing that the end chest got the same loots? (yes of course, if you're an exploiter)
    Dungeons and Dragons? hehehe.
    I'm glad I didn't add my ToS grinds.
