Error Severity: Minor

Zone/Instance: Ghostlands

What type of error occurred?: GameObject interaction error

What was the expected result? What was the actual result?:

You should be able to mouse over the Locked Chest, showing a normal tooltip saying the item's name and if it is Locked, then just right-clicking on the item to automatically use the Pick Lock ability on it.
What actually happened is that when I mouse over, it shows no tooltip and is not highlighted either. The only way to open these Chests is to manually click on the Pick Lock ability and then left-click on the chest, which would then be highlighted and show it's tooltip. I will also add that the object has no collision detection either.

Can the error be repeated? If so, what are the steps?:

Easily. I discovered this while going through the Rogue quest "Greed". The first Chest I came across was glittering and could be interacted with normally, and also dropped the quest item I needed. After I looted the quest item, all the other chests did not glitter anymore and their normal interaction was removed as previously stated. Simply mouse over the chests after completing the quest and it will nit highlight or show any tooltip as a normal interact-able object would.

Are you able to provide visual evidence?:

This shows how a normal mouse over produces no interaction with the object.

This shows how clicking on the Pick Lock ability allows interaction with the chest, as does it show the object's tooltip at the bottom right.

This shows that I am able to lockpick the chest as normal, but only AFTER clicking the Pick Lock spell and interacting with it.

Lastly, this shows no collision, as previously stated.

Can you provide links to the objects, creatures, or abilities in question?:

I don't know if this is helpful at all. A link to the quest requiring the opening of these chests.
