My rogue is level 25 now and all went fine, till I stood in front of a door sealed by a mighty rune 
, blocking acces to most of lvl 20 content. Well, I tried my luck in some level 65 which I can reach killing all bosses. But there I die instantly, which I deserve. So what am I expected to do now? Level to 60 in low level quests? Or is it intended to stop at level 25 in beta? 
You shoud be able to dispel the rune after completing a certain quest, try to look for the quest-log in the map screen and look at the active main quest and see if you can complete it.
To be honest there was a bug some patch ago that prevent the dispel of the barrier but it’s supposed to be resolved iirc
I’ve killed the scholars 5 times now and was fighting the boss. NPC is simply not advancing. Boss is gone now and not reappearing. So it’s clearly a blockage. Well, let’s see what support says. But I find same issue not solved for ‘old’ charcters in 2020. My character is 2 days old.
Please make sure to submit a bug report if you’re stuck. I haven’t seen this bug in particular so it may not be on their radar.
2nd toon stuck at Elder Gaspar. Pannion is down, but gate to Sheltered Wood not open. All done, nothing blinking, but Gaspar still got ?. End of Time is open, but that is level 58.
DONE
Needed tro talk in End of Time. Who should know that?
Isn’t that what the quest says?
NPC says something about stopping him. But I did fight his aspect and expected that’s it. There also is no clearly to see blinking door or question mark, as for other quests. So it’s a bit confusing for non-native English speakers (I hate German translations and always play English). And there were older topics with the same issue, where it was a bug. So I thought it’s back.
