K.. Heres the real problem..

Ive known about this for a bit.. EQ has been hacked.. badly.. Theyve been duping items like Ruby uses trade and corpse bugs.. This problem is most prevelant on Ellrosi Mar where a 2 week server reset might occur if all duped items are not traced..

The people who were caught duping apparently decided to fuck their server over.. They were obviously banned.. but before their accounts were closed for cheating.. They took all their duped stuff and handed it out to newbs.. Making it harder for the GM's to locate the items.. (Kind of a If i cant play then fuck you all attitude..)

As for CT being broken.. I think they intentional "broke" it to stop the problem.. in fact thats what they did.. (PEople started duping steel plate instead tho..)

As for when it will be up prolly after this patch.. which is taking forever.. i HOPE they dont do a system wide reset.. cause i be dicked out of like 3 levels..

All of this information comes from the Druids Grove.. this is a real message board.. all facts are checked.. Its not a lameass flame war board like eqvault.. ITs a mature no nonsense board about more than just druiding..

as to the fix with the key and what not.. sounds like alot of horseshit.. All ya need is a rouge to open it up.. or.. hehe.. use the druid treeform bug.. which a coupla peeps know about.. since treeform lets ya move.. you can just walk through doors.. sometimes walls.. That totally defeats the purpose of CT.. its a tsting ground.. yes it takes forever to get rubicite.. i mean a week or so.. maybe leggings once a day.. Yes it sux.. But the price verant would charge would be excruciatingly hihg.. look at plate and then consider what you are talking about..

just my 2 cents..
