When i try to get the rebreather out of the locker in the Geo Lab, it says that i dont have permision to access that container. Is this a bug or is there som1 i have to talk to?

You might also notice that the rebreather, as it sits in the locker is already insured too. Go figure.

That's because the devs, in a hurry just stole the same exact code from the special edition goggles, deleted the artwork, and renamed it into the rebreather. The only thing new they put into the code for the rebreather is the icon for your inventory and giving it the ability to let you pass through the area unharmed.
Kind of sloppy if you ask me, but I guess it works for now. The SE goggles are automatically insured, as well as non-tradable which is why the rebreather is too.

The hero of tat ring is also automatically insured when you get it.

i just went to the bunker to check the upstairs loot chest...
1 insured rebreather lie inside, unretrievable.

Yeah, I ve had this problem in the geonosian caves and the DWB, the only way I can get around it is to come back later.

did you do this as part of a group??
I did at one point being told the door codes instead of speaking to the people, and i got th same error message.
Then when I cam back and did it all myself talking to everyone, it let me get it!

I've seen this in the DWB chest... cant loot the rebreather and therefore cant reset the timer and get something else to spawn.
I thought it was only reset and removed when the server was restarted, but I went back later the next day and the container was lootable again. There may have been a server reset between that time but I'm not sure.

Maybe It's on a timer like the boxes at the Woolemander Palace.

This problem has been in the game for a long time now. It started in the geo lab and carried over to the death watch bunker. Someone mentioned the fact that they used the same code as the special edition goggles. This is a fact since if you use the radial menu, it lets you try to change the color of your goggles. Also, the rebreather has the insured icon next to it just like the goggles or any item that never decays in your inventory like the hero ring. Since it's the same code, and the goggles are non-tradeable, we aren't allowed to remove them from the containers. Everyone needs to /bug this in game and get their attention because this is a very aggrivating problem for many people. I've bugged it a few times and posted in the Live forums about it but there has been no response or acknowledgement about the bug.
