Levequest Bug: Open Season (Grind - R40)

[ShadowK]

Just haad this bug happen to me while plaaying.

Was doing the leve "Open Season" for Grind, going through it normally then i died however i still had a good 19 Minutes on the clock. After returning to the Atherial gate I ran back to the area and the mobs had depoped....the leve quest had disappeared and it was marked in my journal as in progress but there was no enemies about with the mark and no countdown timer.... It was like i wasnt doing a leve?

Then I ran back to the Atherial gate to figure out what was going on and after examining the thing, it still said i was bound by duty. (Just got the normal non leve activation screen). I lost my reward and a good 15 minutes of time i could of killed the mobs in.

Also as i type this it still says im bound by duty even though i had to walk away to get some food and i doing some other RL stuff, both of which took me an entire hour :P

Not really a major bug except that i lost 14k in rewards and didnt get my bonus SP, just thought id let the community know and wandered if anyone else had a similar experiance.
