	The last few days, while perpetrating my legitimate DDO activities, I have been consistently encountering bugged instances on a certain character. On entry, even with a fresh login, the instance is already active. The reset button is usable, but doesn't do anything. The instance is still active after using it. Inside the instance, The quest UI (quest objectives, XP button, recall button) is either missing or replaced by that of a different quest. The DM text in the instance plays normally, but sometimes also plays the DM text of different instances as well. The mobs often include CRs 2-3 times what is normal for the instance and sometimes include champions! In addition, sometimes the mobs are vastly overpopulated as well, with some instances seeming to spawn a mob in every possible spawn point. Has anyone else been seeing this? I'm trying to determine if this is typical incompetence in programming or if Turbine is trying to do some petty passive aggressive extreme prejudice.

	Not seen this happen at all, but I'd favour low grade incompetence over genuine malice.

I don't think they are capable of that kind of find tuned attack, if they could do that the nature of combat in the content release during the past year would reflect it. But, I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time. Can I suggest a experiment, if you have a LR heart available use it and see if the issue remains.� Also one question comes to mind, do you spend money on the game? in the very unlikely event that this is a targeted issue I can only see them doing it to punish a paying player for misbehaving,� a non revenue player would just get the boot I would reckon. *Edit: Just a thought but before you try the LR (if you do) have you tried entering the instances with full parties in tow? if you could readily hunt Champions in a wildness that could be fine tuned into some remenant hunting if you were interested in them.

	EPIC GH instances IS bug...don't know how it happens but it happens. Once you enter in GH wilderness, there will be no slayers, rare. It will be just empty, there will still be mobs to kill but you wont' get anything for it. (This bug happens sometimes though)

	I've seen a bunch of High Road rare encounters show on the map and in the quest info box, but they are nowhere to be found. Not sure if it's the same bug that bleeds epic encounters into heroic GH and Orchard, or if they're spawning below the ground, or just what.

I would think that too, except that I have seen them put way to much effort into asinine vindictiveness. Burden of guilt comes to mind. I have spent enough money on the game that I assume that if they have a threshold for a protective strata that I am in it.

Finally a guy with good perceptions. I salute ya. Few ppl figure this one out, and even fewer on the official ddo forums...

But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics. Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School? No? Then STFU you fucking amateur. Meat-Head wrote on Jul 29^th, 2015 at 12:03am: Thx.

I've had the Menechtarun one with the reset button from time to time. Always been the S/R/E for Menechtarun though. Never bothered to actually look around for anything interesting though. I did see champions spawn in Eerie Forest once though but have never been interested in Remnants to bother farming them. Better things to do with my time/scripts.

	I had heroic GH giving quest prompts and rewards from the MOTU line (servants through spinner) but it went away the next day. I wish I could have kept that going, I love GH and hate spinner

	Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

	You know I forgot to mention the weirdest part, whenever I logged that character I would be at the Bridge Between. ER seems to have cleared up all issues though. Just a reincarnation bug I guess.
