    A quest marker appears where you need to be, so you should look for that.

    Once the toons line up at the new marker, same different location

    This may sound crazy, but the lock is located in Reaper's March near Willowgrove, just north of Willowgrove Cavern near a tree for some reason. That's how I managed to get in.

    Dude you're awesome, that's exactly right!!! 😂
    For anyone else, here's a screenshot of the exact location. Once you "unlock" it, you then have to go all the way back to Glenumbra and just walk in the gate (past the rest of the poor guys in the queue.. 🤣) Insane, but it works. Thanks taiyoukei! 👍

    This is the worst thing I have ever experienced in any game

    @ZOS_Kevin

    Can someone fix this

    Worst?

    In 2014, I've seen those type of bugs a lot.
    Well, layoff damage is so huge rather than I thought.

    There are two hitboxes overlapping. If you hover over the door you might eventually find the right one which says „unlock“. You‘re supposed to unlock before using the door.

    i get why you would think this, and it did work for me, but i think its more likely that we are just getting the unlock prompt after the last person unlocked the gate and went through. And then it disappears after the first person spamming gets it and starts to lockpick

    Fewer people there today and I was able to observe that the vagueness of the lock position is not related to whether or not someone is actively picking. It took several minutes with no-one picking the lock for me to get it to work. And even then that seemed like a sheer fluke - I'd gone into the UI to post something in chat, and the instance I came back out and hit "use" I got the lock-picking thingie.

    I've had some bad experiences with quests in this game, but this takes the cake.... :D

    Yeah. Now I can't even pick the lock at all. I abandoned the quest twice, all I get is "Press E to use" and then nothing happens, either on the gate itself or the tree. The prompt to pick doesn't even show up after it popped up the first time but no picking game since someone started it before I could and now I guess I'm just locked out permanently. Tried the "swirl the aim" method too.

    Definitely, they don't have enough debugging time for avoiding those nonsense trouble.
    I'm really anxious about losing workers.(~_~)

    I don't know if anyone has said this, but there is a workaround: join a group, and then it should work. Only one person can interact with the gate, and it has a 30-second timer that resets. Hopefully this helps

    This is SO funny they create a season just for PvE and you have to join a group to start the first stupid quest! LMAO

    I'm not even going to touch this stupid questline until I see how they figure this one out (and it IS stupid).
