Bug Name: Cleric buff issue
Description: The party buff for the cleric will sometimes wear off within 10 - 20 mins of use, even though it is supposed to last for 60 mins.
Link/Other info: No info/link to give.
Fixed: No.

This one isn't quite correct. The glitch is that the m.def buff doesn't overide itself. That is, if you already have this buff placed on you, and recast it on yourself, the old one will still be active. All the other buffs do override themselves, so that if you have one and recast it the new one will take the place of the old one.

This is very annoying when placing squad buffs when some people may already have the m.def buff, because you don't know when the buff will run out, unlike the others.

King_Solomon - Heavens Tear · May 2010

Bug Name: No timer in BH
Description: Issues arise where no timer is given upon squad been dismissed.
Link/Other info: No info/link yet.
Fixed: No.

The bug doesn't exist. There should be a guide about instance holding/reseting though.

Bug Name:BH 69 gatekeepers
Description: The gatekeepers do not move if ranged attacked, they stand there.
Link/other info: Players tend to like it this way, probably best to leave it alone.
Fixed: No.

It's FB59. They stand still and their range is below 20 (maybe 15?) so any ranged class can attack freely.

Bug Name:PWI

Shredclaw - Sanctuary · May 2010

The wraithgate door guard is not a glitch. The first boss is in the first room, and looks like all of the tauroc guardians in the room. It has a different name, though, so you have to be on the lookout for that. You must clear out that first room (except for the guard), then clear the hall further ahead up until the second chamber. Then go back and kill the guardian. Then a second boss will appear, up near the second chamber and will disappear in 10 minutes. If that boss is not killed, it will disappear and you must take the long path. That's what is happening.

Oh, and after you kill the second boss, you must go back to the first chamber and you'll see that the third boss has appeared, and is pacing along with three taurocs. You kill that last boss, and the door will open.

Not sure if this is glitch or not but has happened to me a few times. I get the quest in the forst and I get the second one that summons the boss and I finish it after boss but do not get the tab thing from it. So I dont get the box at the end. This happened for the 3rd time today. When I leave the frost I get the message the quest failed.
This has only been happening in the last week. Any ideas?b:angry
