Lunar Rifts & Sieges - it doesn't make sense

This has come up a number of times - going through a lunar rift to a town under siege takes you to the siege instead of the lunar rift exit. It'll continue to come up every time a new player experiences it.

[3:41 PM] Michael Lightheart: I notice taking a boat to the interior of a besieged town, you end up on the wrong side of the siege.
[3:41 PM] Michael Lightheart: I mean, it's handy, but backwards and confusing.
[3:49 PM] Valor Bastagio: @michael Lightheart that is intended
[3:57 PM] Michael Lightheart: Intended? How does that make any logical sense at all?
[3:57 PM] Michael Lightheart: The mind boggles.


Apparently this is not a bug, but intended design.

We need an official explanation for what the thought process is here. This is reality bending stuff.

 

@Quenton Fixed in R50.

From Release 50 instructions:

• Sieges:
  • Lunar Rift Bypass: Using a Lunar Rift now allows Avatars to bypass sieges.
