Anyone else here get screwed by the downloads for Lost Dungeons of Norath?

Friday night I was gathering with my guildies for a little raid in BoT when someone trains a bunch of nasties into the safe room where we were gathering. Being the nice guy that I am, I stick around long enough to hold their attention while the folks in the room make a dash for the zone out. Naturally I get splatted in short order and respawn in PoK as usual. I sit down to mem my spells again and get the "you are too low to memorize this spell" message. Uh oh...since I was about half way into level 62 I knew I was screwed. Sure enough, I am now level 50. Immediate petition. Someone gives me a 96 rez and now I am level 51.Unfortunately I can't equip much of my gear now due to level restrictions so my night is pretty much over.

My petition is answered relatively quickly by a guide who lets me know the bug was a result of the LDoN downloads and that someone else had the same problem earlier. He advised me to log off, go read a book or whatever because my character will have to be rolled back to before the downloads. Fine. I am only going to lose about a yellow bubble of exp and possibly one item I had recently purchased. I can live with that.

Saturday I am still 51st. Sunday I am still 51st. Monday I am still 51st. Monday night I petition again and learn that "there are many people ahead of me who need to be reset". I am advised that it may be several more days before they get to me.

Today I am still 51st. I am beginning to wonder how much longer it is going to take. Has anyone else had an experience like this where it takes several days to get straightened out? Am I being unrealistic in thinking four days should have been sufficient time to address it?

Be patient bro, lost of people got screwed up by this, and I imagine they have an unimaginable long backlog of people needing restored.

They even had GM-Coder Desilous helping the first night. The Customer Service on ayonae ro is 999% better than it was 6 months ago.

Wow... That could explain pretty much every last thing that's wrong with the game.

This is exactly the reason to trod the FoH boards...I learned about this first day people were experiencing it, so I told everyone in /gu ..

I am not ordering LDoN till it has been out for a good 2, 3 months..I don't like to pay for beta..

I've heard that if you cancel your pre-order it might help...

Worth a try at least.

If not fixed yet keep petitioning they will have to roll back your character from like Tuesday so make a note of anything you've gotten since them. Both my 64 character got hit and lost my VT, luckily Brioma kicks ass

Thanks for the tip...I wish I could remember all the changes from that day to now. I know I bought a couple items and sold one but hopefully I won't get crunched too bad. I am more worried about losing my Ring of the Shissar after having camped the stuff for it with guildies.

I think it has to do with his "Lord PROTECTOR" name.
