tried that too
tried that too
from what he says. u X out of wow or Alt + F4. and then have the party leader remove u. then you log back in loot the chest and re-join the party before the 60 seconds runs out.
in that case change the title to rogue only or engi cos u need to unlock the bugg :S
well i restarted 5 times and soloed it on my shammy and all the time it was locked
Any help on this please? I tried this with my rogue.
Stealthed to first chest in Mana Tombs.
Killed the mobs around it, looted, alt + f4.
Hovered over my rogue with alt character and it said offline, so I booted him from the group.
Logged back onto the rogue, and I was in a completely new instance at the entrance. Got my invite from alt to see if it would still work if I went into his instance, but it did not.Mobs were dead and no chest.
Would appreciate any tips on the matter, thanks.
UPDATE: Followed steps directly. Alt in the group, looted the chest, alt +f4, wait until friends list says Offline, boot from the group, and log back on. Tried this multiple times, DOES NOT WORK. You get your own instance.

yea thats what happened to me when i logged back in i was in a completly different instance...
You need to have the alt inside the instance... It won't work if your alt is hosting the group from shatt or somewhere besides the instance. The alt has to be inside.
Tried it in Ramparts. 1st chest remained unlooted. Both chars were in same inst.
1st time logged out then kicked from group (but in friends list was online). Connected = New Instance
2nd time logged out - w8ed till offline in friends list - kicked - logged in - instance remain the same but with timer - looted chest (no popup 4 roll). Then invited back with leader. repeated = no chest 2nd, 3rd whatever time.
So i think it was earlier but now it's fixed.

So I have been testing this for a while, and here is what I have come up with so far.
1. In order to get your character to stop logging back in in a different instance, you must wait until AFTER your character has disappeared from the game world before kicking him from the group. This should allow you to spawn in the same instance you logged out in instead of at the beginning of a new one.
2. When you loot the chest while not currently in the group it still disappears from the instance (on both the character that is in the group and the character that is about to be kicked from the instance). I tried partially looting the chest to have it stay there but that still did not cause the chest to refill itself.
3. It seems that even though the character is out of the group and about to be ported away, he is still in fact saved to the same instance as the group, therefore looting the chest on the character out of the group, still removes the chest from the instance.
I'm not sure whether or not Blizz hotfixed this but as of multiple tries doing different techniques, I have had no luck.

damn, beat to the punch, thats what i get for trying to type it neatly.
Was just wondering that do u need to be in instance of your level so u get the timer?
Mmmmmm 72 hr ban... ill pass
