Hi,
Yesterday, upon starting a MC raid run, one of our members was unable to zone into the same instance as the rest of the raid, despite him not having cleared MC since the Wednesday reset. We then reformed the raid and re-entered MC with the player who was unable to join earlier as leader only to find ourselves in a locked and cleared MC ID as soon as we zoned in. This effectively locked the 39 other players immediately to that ID upon zoning in. Technically, it is as if they cleared the instance, according to the ID, although they only zoned inside the instance and did not clear a single add/boss.
I have already experienced such lockouts issues about 2-3 months ago (when I was saved to blackrock spire and the deadmines for a whole week until the reset, both of which I had a raid ID applied to). This happened when I joined a party whose group leader had cleared both instances and was somehow bugged, contaminating me with his ID.
Concerning the person who could not zone into MC yesterday, it should be noted that he is currently ranking to achieve rank 14. Thus, in order to do so, whenever he joins a battleground, he automatically joins a raid, which could explain him getting corrupted somehow by a bugged raid leader's ID.
This leads me to ask if it is a bug that the ID automatically applies to you when you enter the raid instance since from my understanding, the ID should apply as soon as a boss is killed and the player is present for the kill, not as soon as you zone into a raid.
Finally, I am wondering if there is any action(s) that a GM can make in order for us to recover a normal ID or simply to find a solution to clear MC before the reset, as we are still progressing through BWL and missing a whole weeks worth of loot is a massive bummer.
Thank you for your time and dedication,
