    No mention of this quest breaker in the 1.2.4 patch notes. Unfortunate.

    It's a shame, because you NEED to finish this quest before continuing with Coldharbour if you want to get the Hollow City completed before the war council.

    I hear people asking about it almost every night in Coldharbour over /zone chat. I feel bad it wasn't fixed for 1.2.4.

    Posting a link to this topic on the Known issues thread under the Developer Discussions. I hope it gets added and investigated quickly.

    No, this quest is NOT needed to finish Coldharbour. I guarantee this, as I skipped it last night and then proceeded to finish the Main Story.

    Well, depends on your needs. I wanted to save everyone and have everyone there at the council. If you don't do it, they aren't there for the end.

    Yep, ran into this bug tonight. This is the last set of people I need to rescue, so I guess I will stop playing until a fix is available.

    apparently ZoS coding is like a pond of water and the updates are rocks. when they release an update its like them throwing a rock in to that pond of water and it causes ripples through out the whole pond and effects every thing.
    This, and it's extremely worrying. I'm currently working on a codebase as fragile as this and it's a nerve wracking horror. The difference is that this codebase is nearly fourteen years old, has been transferred between different hardware three times and hacked on by everyone and his dog. ESO's code should be relatively new and really shouldn't be displaying this level of cruft based instability yet.

    Maybe we can get a cheat-cod to go through the wall while you're Investigating?
  • txfeinbergsub17_ESO
    Will this fix be in the next Tuesday patch at least? Is it on the PTS (no idea how the PTS works since I don't play on it).

    THIS RIGHT HERE. ^^^

    I really don't understand. It's like every update breaks twice as many things as it fixes.

    Help me out here.

    Still broken for me, too. I can't assemble the entire war council because of this.

    Make the interactable larger?

    I got stuck on this last night but there were regular system announcements to call for help on zone chat if stuck. I did so and had swift contact from a GM who then appeared and ported me through the rubble :)

    Thanks for reporting this, folks. We're aware of this issue and currently investigating.
    Lol'd... hard...
    So that's why you 've upped two patches till now and the bug still remains. Cause you re investigating. When you screw up something with a patch you re supposed to make it your fist priority to correct it. You drop everything else and FOCUS on restoring what you screwed up. At least that's what a professional should do. Apparently ZOS development manager studied at Mogadishu School of Management.
  • Rodoscrolls
    this still isn't fixed? really? come on . doesn't seem like a major thing to fix. lots of folks in the cold harbor part of the game, cant see it through....days now

    I found that if you spank your monkey first, it will go into the hole easier.

    lol and here I thought I could get inside after the maint...but, its still broken for more than a week already. @zos_AmeliaR why are you guys taking this so so long?? All I ever read from you guys these past week is "still investigating", come on, this kind of bug definitely isn't major enough for you to handle....is it not?
