I did a search on warren and looked at a TON of posts, AND looked through all the titles and read many of them. Appears to me the first reports of the turret not deactivating were 18 Aug 04. Thats 5 months or 150 days!!! I mean come on. Between going to get FULL buffs and fighting my way to the turret (usually alone cuz most people are disgusted with it), I get killed before I can make it into the next room (through full advanced composite armor and full doctor buffs!). As Usual, Customer service gave me the blow off. 1st ticket rep told me that they couldnt verify it unless they were there!!! (It's been broken 150 days apparently, and the CS ppl don't know it)???. Then they asked me to fill out an exploit form about it??? an exploit form??? 2nd ticket I filled out while I was in there before I got to the turret to give them time to come confirm it, yea right, they got back with me after the fact and said I should fill out a bug report! (So after wasting about 7 hours so far on this bug which has been existing for 150 days, I should wasted more time filling out a bug report (cuz I'm guessing CS doesn't think it's been reported yet?? So the 3rd ticket I asked to speak toa supervisor or server GM since CSReps obv were clueless (at least about this issue, tho I think ppl suspect about more than that unfortunately). I consider myself a nice person, but it gets pretty frustrating when I get anything but blow offs from so called "customer service" (an I'm saying this from all my experience with them from 2003). Is it just me?

The more bug tickets that are filed the higher it's priority becomes.

I just ran past it with np at all.


Had to fight your way to it ?


When I did it there was not one mob in that place. That was right when the old man first started showing up.

Barrak, if someone jus recently was in before you, it may be clear, but normally there are 12 huurtons in first room, another 9 in 2nd room etc, a savage huurton or something in lil round room, then another 12 huurtons in theelevator key room, etc... I have tried it 2x and both times after speaking the deactivation sequence I got the message "turret deactivated blah blah" yet it killed me anyways and apparently this has been happening to people since August 18th or earlier last year.

Don't know if this helps, but when I went there I noticed if you examine the control to the turret, (where you say the password), and it says deactivated, if you say the password and then re-examine it said activated.

It's my understanding that anyone can deactivate it and they do not have to be in your group.


The last few times I went (back in november) I checked it and if it was already deactivated, I just went and ran past it.

When it's deactivated, I don't think it's totally turned off, just doesn't fire for 5 seconds or so, so if you run in the turret room and "hang around looking" you won't be there much longer.

I think this is an issue you need to bring up with Warren Customer Service. Ever since the bio engineered animals over ran this place management has really been slacking with the maintenance.

Well that must have been what happened then, mob wise. Right after the old man first started showing is when I did it. I went in fully buffed and rdy to fight, but there was nothing. Lots of people running around tho, everyone trying to get glowy.


Actually I was in there a day or two because I kept getting lost. I would just log out, study maps again and try again later. I had to go past that laser two times, first time it nailed me bigtime. Second time I just burst ran past it, hit the 4 locks and burst ran out.


Thanks for the info tho., because I was going to do it again with my alt who really doesn't have a combat professions.

It is a weird bug that hasn't been fixed as far as I know...sometimes when you deactivate it, it will deactivate as it should...sometimes it doesn't. If it doesnt, send a pet in and run to the elevator like hell
