You keep trying to twist this into me “just not liking the answer.” That’s not what’s happening here. The issue isn’t that I want ZOS to tell me what I want to hear, it’s that the one vague answer we did get back in January didn’t actually address the reported conditions. They said they tested on live and leads were dropping, but they never tested under the same conditions players reported - with all codex entries already discovered. That’s the core of the bug. Without testing in that state, their “we don’t see the problem” means nothing, because it’s not replicating the scenario that causes it. That’s why people are frustrated, because it feels like we weren’t actually listened to.

And your “RNG resets when you dig” theory simply doesn’t explain the pattern dozens of players have reported for months. If it were just RNG, we’d see some distribution, not 42 identical copies of a single lead and zero of all others. Probability doesn’t work that way. This is a systemic issue, not bad luck, and pretending otherwise is just ignoring the evidence.

At this point it’s pretty clear you’re not engaging to help clarify or resolve the issue, you’re just playing the antagonist for the sake of it. Nothing you’ve said actually addresses the core bug conditions or helps push the discussion forward in a constructive way. Instead it’s just nitpicking, moving the goalposts, and trying to minimize what multiple players have consistently reported for months.

That kind of post isn’t useful to anyone. It doesn’t help ZOS, it doesn’t help the community, and it certainly doesn’t make the bug go away. If the only contribution is to argue semantics and defend silence as “good enough,” then you’re not adding value to the conversation, you’re just being noise.

This thread exists to highlight and document a real progression-blocking bug and the lack of meaningful follow-up from ZOS. If you genuinely don’t see a problem, fine. But coming here just to minimize and antagonize isn’t useful. If the best you can do is dismiss and nitpick while others are actually pushing for fixes, the most helpful thing you could do is follow ZOS’s example these past 224 days: stay silent.
