Gold ONLY loot in dungeons

Rittings · September 24

PS5/NA - Dungeons, no matter the difficulty are intermittenly dropping only gold as loot. No monster helms, no set pieces, not even so much as a crawler - even in chests, you get only gold. This is since maintenance.

What the heck is going on ZoS?

BTW - that even includes NO tickets for final boss, and no gold loot box.

Just to clarify, you are noting only getting gold? No loot or boxes at all? Is this still happening to you?

I only ask for clarity because we have not seen other reports of this. So I just want to be clear on what you're experiencing before reporting it to the relevant teams.

This seems to have been previously reported in the thread on the four dungeons here after your comment:

That's a different bug. The one I'm experiencing you don't get ANY box... not even if its your first dungeon. Don't even get tickets. Just gold... nothing but the gold that would drop. Loot a chest? Just gold. Can't even get anything from any containers... even if they say they have stuff - you get nothing.

@ZOS_Kevin And to add to this.. I am currently in normal Ossein Cage, and we're getting nothing but gold from chests. No loot from containers like urns, trunks, etc.. either. Including the boss loot chests that drop in lieu of looting the boss itself.

Needless to say, the enthusiasm to complete this trial has dropped substantially. =/

PC-NA
Was in the Atoll of Immolation (Deadlands version) with a couple of friends (about 20 minutes ago it happened), final boss chest gave just gold, mobs gave nothing, chest in the back room gave just gold, heavy sack upstairs gave nothing, secret boss upstairs gave nothing and his chest had just gold. First time that ever happened, and hopefully the last time.

All the fights since gave normal loot. The other two reloaded to be sure, I did not and still got normal loot.

I was in Bal Sunnar yesterday and the 2nd boss and subsequent chests and even containers gave nothing but gold up until the final boss, who did drop normal loot including the golden box (which subsequently only gave me a piece of equipment, due to the other known bug...).

I got this for half of Volenfell (after Boilbite) today. I did get event tickets, and I did get set pieces for previous bosses.

Yeah, I thought it was just dungeons - but seeing it happen in trials, and pretty much anywhere that has an "instance" it seems it can happen. And it doesn't happen for just one person - the entire instance becomes bugged.

This is actually getting beyond ridiculous... loot now bugged in Inifinite Archive too.

Known/experienced areas of gold only loot from bosses-

- Dungeon bosses
- Dungeons chests
- Trial bosses
- Trial chests
- Infinite archive chests/boss loot
- Maelstrom end of level chests

This is awful and needs fixing asap... lord knows what happened in the last but one maintenance, but it's simply not acceptable to be doing this content for zero reward. It makes all the content miserable and pointless.

I am not sure this is completely new. A couple months ago, I and a friend got 29 gold for completing a fight that was at the end of a story line. The boss was over 1m hp and it took some time to take it down because of the fire attacks were so frequent we spent more time avoiding the AOE than we did attacking.
Also see gold only and very small amounts of gold on other boss fights.
