The grandmaster's gauntlet was reset

Some players found out the gauntlet was reset and played it again to get the rewards.

What a surprised bug.

The issue with just blanket opening it back for everyone is the people that have hurried up an done it again since it reset will then be able to do it a 4th time potentially 😂

@Kabam Miike @Kabam Zibiit or ypu can ban then for 1 day or 2 thats all I can suggest more than this will be painfull for many players who played gauntlet before your notice of harm in their account as the penalty.

personally id rather get gauntlet rewards and get banned for 2 days than the alternative lol

@AlecFantastic, that’s just about the dumbest thing I’ve heard. Yes, there were exploiters, but that doesn’t mean you should be getting all the rewards from the gauntlet for doing nothing. What you should have said is that kabam should open the gauntlet up for those who didn’t exploit it to get a rerun. You compared it to the act 7 offer. People didn’t get that for free, when the offer came a second time, everyone still had to pay units.

Any updates to this? If you do not want people to do it again for those (few? many?) that it reset for, then why is the quest still active and not temporarily locked? Is the tech not available?

Just seen a message in game that it’s been disabled. But the rewards some have managed to benefit from this bug is pretty damn big and is genuinely not fair. If it was just some RNG material I probably wouldn’t be that bothered, but there’s a significant amount of rank up material and Sig stones. What’s the plan for everyone else who wasn’t able to benefit?

Wow! Way to fix the problem lmao, take the content down and hope everyone forgets about it…. This is beyond ridiculous and unacceptable, not even an update on a plan of action just the same old bs.

im pretty sure its temporarily down

So will the people like certain streamers that have already done it have those extra items taken back or is it going to be like normal and tough luck for everyone else?

Did you not read the in-game message? There's also a sticky thread on the General Discussion page. It's temporarily down. Way to fly off the handle and embarrass yourself.

I feel you may have missed a few things. There's in-game messaging, a post in News and Announcements on the forums and a banner at the top of the forums.

It's down temporarily, it will return as soon as the game team sorts out the issues. That is the plan of action, as that's all the information we have as of right this moment.

Wow! AN in game message! That's so... rare? Scarce? Unexpected? Weird? Unnatural?

Ok so the Gauntlet is down to avoid the exploit of this bug.

But what about those who already did the gauntlet ? What about the rewards ?
Will they be ban for exploiting such a ban ?

If not ban and keep the rewards, will we (us, those that didn’t exploit the bug) be allowed to do the gauntlet again ?

@Demonzfyre
No bud I’m not embarrassed to be disappointed, I read the msg and in game mail. I forgot the forums aren’t for venting frustration ✌️

You were flat out wrong.

I think that they should let everyone have a second run on it .. i mean all other solutions are too complicated like the act 7 completion gate.

People rerun it and maybe already used their catalysts etc. I wonder which poor soul at kabam was responsible for that ..

May be unpopular but seems kind of fair... Re-open it BUT have it open to all for X amount of days AND ban players from game who exploited it for those same X amount of days so they can't get again.

I don’t want to beat a dead horse, or a horse that’s been revived a few times accidentally, but is there any rough estimate of when this might get resolved?

I know that a solution is not necessarily something one can plan for, but are there people who can work on this over the weekend and will the advent of BGs slow it down? There are just a lot of big things coming down the pipeline and something like this takes a little planning.

The return of the gauntlet for everyone would be a good start to fixing the dumper truck of a mess over the last day.

The return of the gauntlet for everyone would be a good start to fixing the dumper truck of a mess over the last day.

It would also be a great way for those who stashed up revives for 8.1 to use up some of the extras, assuming that it would be actually available to them.

Any updates on this yet?
