Cataclysm - Firelands Boss Respawn Bug

Support Bug Report
1

Our guild cleared Beth, Rhyolith, and Shannox on Thursday 11/08, and when we returned on Friday 11/09, Rhyolith had respawned.

When we cleared the rest of the front bosses and attempted to activate the orb for the bridge, there was no dialogue, and acted as though we did not kill Rhyolith. We were unable to complete the raid without re-killing Rhyolith, and opted not to re-kill because we were concerned about bans/action against accounts for killing the same boss twice in the same raid lockout.

This is definitely a bug to have a boss respawn after being killed, and doubly so when it locks us out of the rest of the raid’s content unless we break the rules.

What are we supposed to do in this situation? Half the raid wanted to kill the boss and see the rest of the instance, since that was the only way to progress.

You all should of just cleared it. Its a bug, not an exploit, it would be easy to prove that and you wouldn’t just get banned for doing something that’s the developers fault. It would likely be different if you farmed it. You all could of also just submitted a bug report as a just incase to prove you weren’t exploiting.

That being said, I totally understand your misgivings but likely an overreaction by some folks.

Are you guys going to bother to fix this? We had to kill a respawned boss to progress and got to see a lot of BIS gear drop + cinders that we can’t loot because we’re not trying to get banned.
