    The maintenance is because the pearls that you break to end the Geysers weren't spawning causing the geyser events to not end. Nothing to do with RNG

    What do shell troves have to do with RNG? Or are you saying the "official story" is a cover up and it's a conspiracy lol.

    It's because geysers and dungeon bosses weren't working.

    The events were not completing at all.

    Why can people not just read the announcement?

    It's not a PEARL like a DROP!

    The *Pearl* such as the *Pinion* on a Dolmen, to close an event instance!

    It was written weird.

    The reality was: NO ONE was able to COMPLETE *any* Geyser on either EU or NA server at all. the 'pearl' (final pinion, different image) that pops after boss killed to close it, was not popping.

    As I understand it, it's not just the geysers either. Quest progression was halted on some Bosses as well - and a few other things.

    Either way, even if it was "just" the pearls, I think it deserves a hotfix.

    I was playing when the servers went down, yeah it sucks - but c'mon, it's just a game, and they're trying to fix something that's broken, surely we can support that?

    Any game company that isn't a 'newbie' will address issues as needed, no matter who's prime time it is. Just because its EU prime time ATM doesn't make you special.

    Multiple things broken delaying people's progress, but the emergency maintenance to fix it is "rediculous [sic]".

    Damned if you do, damned if you don't, ZOS. Anyway, thanks for fixing the issue so quickly. I'm in the supportive and grateful camp. :heart:

    Guess that deserved a hotfix during prime time. Give you it's a new feature and people who bought it want to farm it. So you can waste 5-10 minutes and realise it's broken.

    Meanwhile random daily runs don't give out xp or rewards most of the time for days now and noone cares...

    as far as I know they are aware. my guess is - this issue was easy enough to isolate and fix, since most recent patch broke it, while random daily not completing they are still trying to pinpoint the exact cause of.

    Could people get their heads out their posteriors for one second, please? Summerset is due for its official, crossplatform release in about 6 days. You know they are hoping on it being a success given how much advertising and promotion they have been doing for it. Word going around that they broke one of the advertised new features just isn't a good look. It's not good for sales either. This wasn't simply about players who have early access being bent out of shape. This was about the players ZOS is hoping will buy it in the coming weeks.

    Um, let us not forget those players with early access gave their cash - not crowns, but real life currency - to Z already. D..arn right it needs fixing. If people are really that offended, perhaps they should try MS Solitaire. I hear it works pretty well. No competition, no stress, yeah, go on and try it. More bandwidth for those of us that are willing to wait while this is fixed.

    As did I. Until the maintenance earlier the new geysers worked just fine. I haven't checked them out since the hotfix, but that's because my guitar started whispering in my ear, and I've been lost in R'n'R since then.
