5.3 Missing Keys & Relocking Key Gates - Gamebreaking Glitch

RedRubyRose

Currently I am unable to progress in Story mode due not being able to acquire the relevant keys. For some reason, key gates are relocking themselves once you reach 100% exploration in that map. Causing any farming you do, to use up the coresponding key. This is game breaking due to keys not respawning. As you can see in the pictures below, everything is fully explored except two paths in 5.3.1 which I’m unable to complete. My inventory shows no keys and no keys have respawned on any of the maps. I have tried closing/reopening the game and even relogging. This situation is just completely absurd, what am I supposed to do?

This is something that has come up previously with those who have explored 100% and return to farm resources. Kabam designed it so that you only do each path once and never return (remember the "exploit" that they got mad about with players replaying Act 1?), which means that any farming will ultimately use keys that were supposed to be used to explore.

Essentially, you have to email support and they will have to grant the keys. In your case, it may be more of a challenge since you're not 100% explored.
