ZOS please answer my questions (leads and codex vanished)

Rishikesa108

@ZOS_GinaBruno please answer these questions:

1) in the Update31 was in program to make to expiration the leads already known and already dug ? until now we have had leads expiring just when they were unknown
2) if it was in program for this Update31.... why wasn't it written on the scheduled changes ?
3) if it was not in program.... why do we still have known leads that expire? after this morning's patch I expected the known leads to return without expiration
4) Is it to be considered definitive that all leads are to expire ?

Please give us answers, because this fact is very very important, and I can't afford to have lost leads and codex without answers.

Leads should never expire. This is just stupid video game logic where something can be buried in the ground for hundreds/thousands of years only to expire in 30 days cause I found out where it was. Just silly, they need to remove this garbage from the game.

It's silly, yes, but the "explanation" is that if you dawdle, some other Lara Croft/Indiana Jones Lady Laurent/Fennorian-type antiquitarian or treasure hunter hears the same rumor and gets to it first.

3) No - the link at the top of the page clearly states that this morning’s patch would not return deleted codex entries. It just prevented them from being deleted for players who hadn’t yet logged in and lost them.

EDIT: link doesn’t mention lost leads.

Greetings,

We are aware and are currently investigating the issue with codex/leads disappearing. With that being said, since there is already a thread opened on this subject, we're going to go ahead and close this one down. To consolidate all feedback, we ask that you continue the discussion here.

Thank you for your understanding.
