Fixed:D

-Entire crassus event despawns if the person who started it leaves or dies.
-Not being able to repair all inventory items if locked (makes no sense cause only the gear you have equipped will take durability, and all that gear will be locked).
-Not being able to use the arrow to store all items is a massive QoL decrease. Example: I go to do my daily cooldowns, and I want to grab all my refining gear at once from the storage shed it’s in, so instead of pressing one button I have to individually shift click all 25 items into my storage and then back again when I’m done. wtf. This is awful.

-What is your character name in New World: Davenerys

-What server/world did you experience your issue on: El Dorado

-Describe the issue you are experiencing: During a M10, during fight with Alluvium, my squad would take hits from his disease swam, but his disease swarm was invisible. There is no visible indication to where the disease swarm is, so we could count pass this stage. While we were attacking the mobs and tank would aggro boss, we would take additional damage from the disease swarm, but it was invisible so we have no way of knowing where to dodge to or not. After trying over 10 times, we stopped and lost a mutation due to this.

Another instance, yesterday I was in another squad, while fighting the last boss, The Blighted Greenskeeper, the rocks show no indicator of where it would drop. It took out our healer, and as one of the DPS tried to revive the healer, the rock dropped on both of them. Healer had to respawn, and while I tried to revive the DPS, another rock fell on me, taking out the first DPS and me with it as I had already fell. It took us about 3-4 tries after this to just keep running around while attack, so the rocks would just randomly fall elsewhere than us. It dropped a gold run into a bronze run.

-Is this a bug? (If this is an exploit, please follow the steps here: Yes it is a bug

-(if a bug) How did the issue affect your gameplay: I have lost one mutation try and got cheated out of a gold run.

-(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: one of them yes, but the other no.

-(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: did not record it.

-What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: I don’t know. It randomly takes effect.

-When did this happen? (Date and Relative time; please include your timezone)

Character name: SW4NK
Server: El Dorado

Description: During my Genesis Mutation 7 run this morning, my character became invulnerable/de-synced from the run. I could not die but also could do no damage to npc’s. Everything was normal up until The Caretaker boss fight and then the bug engaged. I tried leaving the expedition and rebooting the game with no results. Fortunately, my group was able to 4 man the boss and then the bug went away and I could interact with the game normally. Then on the final boss the bug reverted itself and I was unable to damage or be killed. I was however able to revive downed teammates. This has only ever happened to me once and it was in an OPR match. That seemed like more of a de-sync issue but this was very specific to the boss encounters. I have attached a video with the relevant timestamps included in the chat.

Steps to Reproduce: Unknown. Seemingly random.
Date/Time: 2/27/23 @ 0945 hours ish PST.

Currently, if you double click locked items they will bind without notifications, so you’ll have to be very careful.
