Skal, Minotaur Cave, Progression blocked

Post by Leafgreens »

Description of Bug Experienced:
(please include information of what you did, that lead up to the bug, what you expected to happen there, and what actually happened, then move on to describe below:)

Skal areas, Minotaur Cave, Skeletal Remains. Supposed to give key to progress further into area. (Personally I think is a lie, have been here almost 150 times and never seen it)


Steps to reproduce the Bug:
Just go into the Cave/Instance.


Expected Result:
Loot a key from Skeletal Remains that allows you to progress in the cave/dungeon/quest.

Actual Result:
50%+ unable to reach desired object that allows further progression in the cave/quest from Skal Mayor. In addition, very slow respawn timer. (I have cleared this cave 150+ (at LEAST) times, have only seen the next door open twice that apparently requires a lockpicker or a key, have never seen a key in the giving receptacle, have seen the Skeletal Remains blocked off more than half the time.

think the key spawns once per reset, not sure. But it opens up an optional area, it is not necessary to complete the quest.

There's a transition in front of a tunnel ( continue going north, it looks like its a dead end with a passage small enough for a hin/gnome to pass trough)
Use TAB to highlight the blue transition, it makes things a little easier

It is necessary to do the quest. Again, in 140-150 times going there I have found the locked door open only twice. The door leading down is also locked.

And if that is how long the key takes to reset, it is even worse - as the ice area around the key container blocks it slightly over half the time.

The key from the skeleton remains opens the way to a bonus area, it is not necessary to go there to complete the writ, and like it's said above, it spawns only once per reset.

Look elsewhere for a passage to the next area of the dungeon, to complete the writ quest. I'm also closing this report since it's not a bug.
