Anyone else doing quests and not getting credit?

I’m pulling my hair out trying to get the Earthen unlocked, and I’m not going through wowhead quests for each story on the MSQ. I’ve run out of shield-quests so I’m now trying to figure out where I went wrong.

If I look at the achievement [The War Within]

On “The Machines March to War” I’m seeing what the final quest is/was and I’m like 99.99% certain I did it last night. But I’m not getting credit for it. Wowhead tells me I did it, but I recall that not being super accurate.

I’m at the point where I have to assume something is bugged. I’m going to check in on the final storyline “A light in the dark” here in a second when Wowhead stops crashing.

Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

this tripped me up too, there’s 3 quests that don’t have shield. they’re literally just random quests, but they do say they’re part of unlocking them in the quest text.

look up the individual texts in the achievement, and go find them. 2 of them are longish, one you literally just find some guys tools lol

well, i tried to use wowhead, but it frose my entire computer for like 5 minutes as soon as i opened it, and i had to shut down my computer. lol

I don’t remember the quests you mentioned just from their name, but in your quest log you should be able to see which chapter of the main campaign you’re on, and where to pick up the next quest above all of your quests, if your on the main campaign quests.

remember you also need to do 3 side quest chains, not just the main story to unlock the earthen.

the first one starts with a quest called “How Scandalous” in Dornoggal. you get it from Aldra. (62.80, 21.82)

you start the other in Gundargaz, you can get it from Machinist Kittrin, the questchain starts with “Discared and Broken” (48.24, 33.44)

and the last one starts just outside of Dornogal, with a quest called “Before i depart” you can get it from Korgran at Fallside Outpost (57.45, 43.02). he took a second to load in for me when i went there the first time.

in addition to the coordinates i provided, you can see all of the required quests on your map (but not every quest on the map is required)

To be clear, we’re talking about three random quest for The War Within achievement?

To be clear, those are storylines.

They don’t have a shield because they aren’t part of the campaign, they are part of the earthen unlock and listed under that achievement.

BTWquests is a good addon for tracking down where quests are.

Can i use it this far into things?

i still don’t remember them, but that wasn’t my point. my point was that if you’re missing part of the level 80 war within campaign it should tell you where to go in your quest log.

if you’re missing the “Merrix and Steelvein” step on the Allied Races: Earthen achievement you need

if you’re missing the “Broken Tools” part of the achievement you need

and if you’re missing the “Mourning Rise” part of the achievement you need

look up any given quest on wowhead and on the page there will be a script you can run to see if you’ve done the quest or not.

/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(79030))

this will tell you if you did the last step of The Machines March to War, for example

I just used that, and it’s saying false, the achievement also says I haven’t finished the quest.

But there’s no quest showing in either the Ringing Deeps or Dornegal. So now what do I do?

this is the start of The Machines March to War
on the right hand side is a list of all quests in the questline.

you can grab the script from this page and check, if it says “true” check the next one, then the next, until you find the first false. then you’ll know where you need to go to resume the questline.

it’s a bit tedious but I don’t know of a better way.

Yes it looks into your char info to see what you have done and not done
