<p>Something odd happened yesterday.</p><p>Four of us were running the quest. L80 mentored down to L70. My L72 mentored to the L70. L71 who wasn't mentored. L70 some of us were mentored to.</p><p>Soon as we zoned in, the L80 (who was the last to zone in) received the message that the number of players had been exceeded and she was about to get kicked out. Sure enough, the rest of us stayed in and she got the boot.</p><p>From what I found on the walkthrus, you could have up to 6...is this intentional the 3 max? Or did we find a bug?</p><p>It wasn't for hardship that we were 4-manning it, it was because we're a group of friends and wanted to run the house together.</p><p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Yes the quest/zone is meant for 1-3 players. Unfortunately we don't have aw ay to stop more then 3 from zoning in so the only way we could do this for right now is allowing 3 max in the zone. The zone is not hard enough to allow 6 in it nor does the size of the zone support 6 players running around in it. But yet the toughness of the zone can support more than one player.</p><p>We will look into ways of supporting this ideal in the future.</p>

No seriously, many. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/49869fe8223507d7223db3451e5321aa.gif" border="0" /></p>

That should do the trick, the problem isn't so much in only 3 people being allowed as in us not knowing that before we got everybody together and zoned in. If, say, the quest description included a mention of the limit, we'd know when we got the quest and could take it into account.</p>

Sometimes when we (guildees and friends) run together there's only 3-4 of us online and mini-instances would be a great place to play.</p><p>Thanks again!</p>

<p>Ok, I'm officially confused. I knew this could be a group instance if you wanted, but I didn't know why. I blew through it in a few minutes solo several times and barely got a scratch. Maybe cuz I'm a conjuror? I don't know, but it was far from difficult and I wouldn't even say I'm great or well geared. I have legendary stuff and a couple fabled pieces from group instances.</p><p>However, I'm glad it wasn't any harder than it was though. I really enjoy the zone and have enjoyed doing it quite a few times. It really is a lot of fun, and I agree...more of these fun little zones would be great to see.</p>
