A couple GU's ago (or last, I can't recall exactly) the devs introduced a new "Cast timer" that fires off whenever you click any clickable items, such as quest updates. I'm not sure if this was to make questing harder (you break invis now getting simple click updates, whereas before that only happened when you harvested a clickable), but it has BROKEN the peacock quest line. To see how: Go to Tracing the Map quest line, and then the sub-quest Secrets of MuyDef (or one of those, forget which of the three - it's in the Residency Court).One of the switches you must click during this quest is halfway up the climbable wall to where the Harp is. Since you are climbing, you cannot cast. Since you cannot cast, you cannot click the switch. I've tried using camera to get close enough to click from above, but unlike the priestess court, there is no ledge to use as a "clicking platform" for this switch. I suppose with a perfect drop one could land on the switch itself and hope to not stick to the wall, but as this is a timed run - and the tightest one of the 3 at that - it's not a workable solution. Easy solution: Undo the casting timer for clicky updates, it was unnecessary, makes quests more tedious, is likely breaking the poets palace and Neriak zoning mechanic, and has broken the Peacock quest line.
