Yes. I am one of the players stuck on that quest.
My first attempt was at 14/15. I dropped and started again. Now at 11/15.
I cannot progress my character in Shadowlands. I am forced to play a different character.
But it is worse:
We no longer can submit an in game issue and get a personal fix. Such as auto advancement to the next quest or reset of hidden stuff and restart.
I simply have to wait, for this toon, until I see that the bug has been fixed in a week or two.
Very disappointed. As a long time WoW player I am bitterly disappointed. It has left a really sour taste in my mouth.
(Yes I am not dumb. This is NOT a respawn issue. Players I stand next to can “see” unopened cages. All cages appear open to me. I have tried logging out. I have tried patiently waiting and just farming mobs until a “respawn” occurs. To no avail. I know what I’m doing. Other characters did not have this problem)
Once upon a time, Blizzard had cheery customer service staff with whom you could chat in-game. Yeah, they had some formulaic responses at times and I’d have a laugh but they would always endeavour to solve any bugs, glitches or problems.
Sadly… that is “back in the day”.
Edit: Curious to know if anyone else has had this problem.

Any fix to this? Alt is stuck on 14/15 no matter what i do
had this issue yesterday, a helpful tip on wowhead suggested joining a party. it worked, just group up and wait for them to open a cage with NPCs inside.
So this happened to me too. Stuck on 14/15 and all cages open. I abandoned the quest and then restarted it. This time it worked out so my final cage landed right on 15/15. Idk if that helps at all. I still submitted a bug report though. Also I’ve heard joining a group for it can get you through the bug.
This is happening to me now. I cant do anything. I tried rebooting WoW, running upstairs, downstairs, nothing seems to be working. This is 100% NOT a respawn issue. All the cages are completely opened with like spirit dudes standing there looking like they’re waiting for permission to leave their cages.
I am stuck on this quest as well. Have run through with 4 other toons, no problem. I have 14/15 and 6 keys in my bag. All the cage doors are open and the spirits are just standing there. Not sure what to do. I have logged out, logged back in, still doors open and guys standing inside, still 6 keys in bag…this is really lame, can’t progress. Help please.
Bump - how is this STILL not fixed?
3/3/2022 and its glitching again…now i cant progress on my shaman
6/5/22, 9.2.5 is out for nearly a week now and it’s still not fixed in the latest patch.
I’m getting this issue now. Stuck on 13/15 released.
STILL not fixed as of 10.0… was stuck on 14/15. Abandoned and retry seemed to work.
