What we need is a seperate thread to catalogue any and all bugs folks have found. This is an attempt to highlight the needs for the next patch that the devs can concentrate on. Please no moaning in this thread. and if you come across a bug and wish to post it, please make sure that it is not already listed. Thank you.
Ok. Here's one to kick off and to give some idea what I am attempting...
Shadow ruins:
Unable to reenter the shadow ruins if left before the quest is complete.
There very simple and (i think) quite clear. this is what is needed i reckon.

I have been playing over LAN at a speed of 100MPS with 3-4 people. The following is a list of the bugs that have caused major problems.
*Hall of Weapons and Hall of Emethrym - When leaving the Hall of Weapons in Arindale (playing with four characters) at least two characters are consistantly warped somewhere other than outside the buidling. One is warped up into the roof outside of the hall, while the fourth player is warped to the edge of the map west of Arindale near the Dragons. I believe this bug is partly due to the stacking of characters as the game places them outside the Hall of Weapons. A third player is stacked so high that he becomes stuck in the roof. I have no idea why the fourth character warps to the edge of the map. A similar problem occurs when leaving the Hall of the Emethryn.
*Elevators drop characters. - I believe it is due to a short bit of lag that makes the character stop moving long enough to fall through the upward moving elevator. Not a good thing, when seeking out the Emminator. Problem is annoying, but so far circumnavagable.
*Server computer has trouble communicating with NPCs - this is more than likely a unique problem, but I thought I should mention it because it has been a major problem as far as being able to complete quests. The character playing on the server computer can only see a flash of dialogue options before they disapear (about half the time).
I'll let you know if I run into any more major bugs.

Not sure if monster spawn within Skuldoon is a bug but it's happened to me and at one time near the mage's hut i was attacked by spiders and there was an exemption error as a process could not be performed or something to that effect and the game crashed.

Yes for some reason creatures spawn near the mage's hut. They seem to down down off that mountain behind he's hut. It's never caused my game to crash. It has crashed in other places however. Speaking of bugs if you go in to his hut to sale him something and your guy goes in to fight mode you know a creature has dropped down behind the hut. It's like your char can see through walls.
Now I guess I'll have to post a bug. Let's see so many to choose from...
1. Problem wearing rings and trinkets. There is a work around for this one.
2. Creatures getting knocked up walls when your attacking them. inconvenant and dangerous because it can make your game crash (monster in space error)
3. If you load your game in the arena in skulldoon the door will never open and you'll have to reload a earlier save (hope you have one). This one happens other places too such as the last stage of the trail of elders. I haven't tested to see if this one is still broken as of 1.3.
Have fun you guys. D

my first bug encountered (but I've only just made it to Arindale)
When trying to leave Fargrove through the west gate in MP it lets you out, then immediately sends you to the sewer where your only option is to traverse again.
Fixes we tried:
1. Going back through the sewer to west gate and trying again. *failed*
2. Going to South gate with the intention of circling the town. *failed*
3. Loading the single player and exiting through west gate. *failed*
4. Loading single player and exiting through south gate. *worked but couldn't circle fargrove to go west*5. Uninstalling and reinstalling *worked*

Yes i think they ought to consider the repawn routine to place you in a position where you can continue. There has been a few players who mistakenly saved there progress at that point and has been left with no way to recover their position so have had to start from scratch. I suggest to everyone to make multiple save files and/or even back up your save files in case something goes wrong.

This is not my bug, but I tried someone else's save file where they couldn't get into the shadow ruins, after placing the shadow stone. When I went up to the portal, monsters behind the wall started attacking me. Mind you, not from within the shadow ruins, but actually behind the wall. Yes, that's all there is, just a wall with the portal in it.

HAHA!
If I was to list all the bugs and unfinished content I have found in this game, it would make a novel larger than "War & Peace".

When you first encounter the Talking Stones in the Black Swamp and you continually attack them...they will no longer cooperate with you and will not talk to you anymore. This means that the password Vartuug gives you will not work...luckily, you can climb the mountain to the left and totally bypass these stones, WHEW! :o
