February 26 Issues

It seems there were some instability issues with the Login servers this morning. Players currently logged into their various servers are able to stay logged in, but players wanting to login cannot. No servers are reported as down according to the Network Status page.

We do not yet have today’s Hotfix notes, however players are reporting that Marks of Manaar (the new SF heroic gear shards) are dropping again from enemies in SF dungeons.

We’ve now heard word (EQ2 Forums) about the the repeatable faction quests in The Hole not granting any XP. The XP these quests produce has been reduced, and limited to one repeat per day, in preceding hotfixes. However yesterday’s hotfix removed any XP whatsoever for completing these quests.

Also Research Assistants are currently showing as not researching the last spell they were asked to.  Players are advised not to reset and request another spell, but to wait for this display bug to be fixed. (EQ2 Forums).
