Title: Pits of Gaathmar
Post by: Mr Howardson on January 04, 2013, 08:59:32 PM
The Plunder chest is completely empty despite having 3 pages of loot available. Either they did not spawn or someone stealthed in and stole them all.

I will err on the side of good will and say that they never spawned.

I would also request that the darkness effect is removed. It's a pain to navigate and the case is similar to Old Stones in my mind.

i can confirm you are siding on the wrong side, did it multiple times and the potions always spawned. i will say the loot is just awful though, keep darkness though its scary touch

Ah, My Cleric went in there and got the potions in a losing fight with the Gathmar and left. Wasn't aware that taking it and leaving without killing everything was poor class. Now I do, sorry for any inconvenience. I personally thought it would reset! But only took the potions and really the first time I ever went in there was just "wat is this" as I really wasn't sure how to handle the situation. Wont happen again!

A common policy is obviously to not run past everything and grap what you can from chests, and bail. That is often just abusing the mechanics.

We frown upon this, but it is obviously also our fault. We probably should put in some precaution measures.

Lock them until all NPCs have been killed, similar to the incursion script

Make opening the chests break stealth and have invisibility cancelling runes around/near them.

Or we could trust players to do what's thematically cool!

I.E. perhaps if a character is a dedicated thief, he could snatch up a minor trinket during the thick of a fight.

But stealthing ahead and just looting the chests while others fight and leaving them nothing is more poor form than anything else.

Or looting chests could break Invisibility and Stealth, maybe disable invisibility for several seconds?
