maybe, I’m just glad it worked finally.
I hope it works for everyone today.
I didn’t notice much aggro swapping going on either.
The tank held it solid the whole time.
Usually it spins like a top with all the pet taunts and other tanks in there.
Finally got the first one to complete. It’s definitely the cave entrance that is an issue. BUt it’s not just the charge that is a problem. The boss also does a boulder throw and if it targets a ranged standing at the entrance this breaks it as well. Best bet is to pull the boss behind the rock and try to LOS anybody standing at the entrance to force them to move into the cave.
Edit: they may have just hotfixed it cuz it has now worked twice in a row.
Edit2: it definitely appears to have been hotfixed or reset out of the fail loop.

You got lucky, just did it and caved in at like 20% boss health no ring thing
Yep, still flipping bugged. The two gems I actually need are from this event that keeps bugging too.
Put all the gems on the vendor full stop. I just want the gems I don’t want to have to fight with shoddy/bugged game design.

anyone having difficulty with the Cave In boss/bug give it a shot with Warmode on. I was there solo for the first half so I stood in the back, someone came and joined and also stood back there with me. Without any (sorry) randoms at the cave entrance it worked just fine.
Just killed him at the Front of the Entrance and it awarded the gem! They might have hotfixed it!!

They didn’t I had done it about 15 minutes prior and it was still the same with the cave in and the award dissapearing, it was only after I went back basically without anyone else that I was able to complete it without the cave in.
damn. it worked 3 straight times for me even with people standing at the entrance so I figured it must be fixed

Definitely still bugged. It’s just luck if you get the gem.

EDIT. I will again recommend warmode on for smaller groups, I didn’t with 2 of us and 4 of us and both times we just got everyone to stack on the tank and let tank pull first.
I only have theories LOL I am straight guessing as to what causes it but just tried it again for the second gem on a PvE realm and it instantly caved in and the quest was gone.
I am starting to suspect that ranged people are pulling him instantly and that causes it somehow, or people are taunting it to the wrong spot (or pets are).
The bad part is even if we do figure out what’s causing it, and get the group to listen (LOL yeah right) one person could still come in and purposely screw it up if they already have their own gems and just wanna mess with people.
I got all the gems… finally, after 30+ attempts.
Here is what I did, not saying it works but this is what happened for me.
- Stood way outside cave and had my pet attack. I got credit it said Stagalog slain 1/2. But no gem
- The moment the event started the countdown timer again, I received the gem
makes no sense
In conclusion, Stalagnarok is 100% bugged, but it is possible to get the citrines. Hopefully they’re able to get a fix out asap, but in the meantime just keep trying, and if the frustration starts getting to you take a break. They’ll still be there when you come back

Blizzard you may say they ae all available but with stalagnorok bugged like all get out, it’s very hard to get the two gems from him. please fix this
False - I’ve killed it a dozen times in the last hour now and still haven’t gotten it.
Event is bugged and can’t earn the gem. It has been bugged since last night, where’s the 2nd hotfix to fix the first hotfix?
If the boss charges ANYWHERE near the entrance to the cave, its over. You get the collapse message, and you get to try again. If a hunter is there with pets and have taunt turned on (they do every time) it bugs. If you hit the boss before your back is facing the far wall to the cave, very likely will bug. If you standf in the middle and he charges through you towards the entrance, it will likely bug. You can bring a big group in and bloodlust to burn him before someone does something to bug him, but that’s about it. Gotta get lucky, or go in with a small group in warmode to avoid the people out there bugging it.
edit: the other failure condition appears to be time related too. It’s not super clear, but in cases where no one stood near the entrance I’ve seen it fail after 30 seconds or so of combat. There may be a timer on it that’s bugged but who knows.
The hotfix was already pushed out after hours, and apparently Blizz doesn’t work on the weekend, so don’t expect a fix until Monday
