Job changes are no longer possible after entering treasure hunt dungeon portals

Unfortunately, the needless adherence to a template that is in no way useful for this issue caused the mods to move the other thread without addressing it. I'd kindly ask the moderation team to consider reading non-templated information and recognizing that templates are not always necessary when the issue applies to literally everyone. This issue could've been fixed weeks ago if it wasn't wordlessly moved to the other subforum.

Area: Conceivably Special Timeworn Map, Timeworn Gargantuaskin Map. I haven't tested the other areas, but I suspect they are affected as well.

Steps:
1. Open your inventory. Decipher a treasure map (for easy replication, use a map with a guaranteed portal).
2. Go to the indicated location, dig for the treasure and defeat the monsters.
3. Enter the portal.
4. Attempt to change jobs.

Previously, you were able to go into any treasure dungeon and change jobs within the instance with the downside being all your skills being put on a long cooldown. This especially benefitted small parties.

Great minds! Can confirm on the Gymnasium Agonon and also saw this on the Excitatron 6000.

Sometimes you've just gotta follow templates and show the error in a screenshot too; the rule about using the template won't always fit every use case to a tee, but it does make it a lot easier to process large numbers of reports from a variety of players in bulk - as vexing as it can be to have an issue sidelined for improper formatting. It is what it is. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Didn't realize someone already re-reported it because this is kind of bad enough of a functional bug that I expected it to be dealt with, oopsie. Thanks for showing me! I do think it's weird to insist on character data for a universal bug. The forum lets you pick a displayed character for a reason...
