Hi guys.
The only candy bucket I’m missing from the Eastern Kingdoms is the one in Goldshire. Every time I enter the inn I get phased into my own instance where all players and Halloween stuff, candy bucket included, disappear. I’ve tried everything to no avail. This includes joining a group, reloading, disabling add ons, clearing my quest log, setting my hearthstone there and logging out, flying in on my mount, dropping a teleport circle on it, nothing helps… What am I missing??
*First time making a post, this isn’t the right character. Whoops. I’m having this issue in retail on Sargeras.
Phasing is almost always a result of having a quest chain uncompleted in your quest logs. Especially stuff like the introduction to expansions (current or past).
The developer expectation is that players have been playing along with expansion releases since Day One and will quickly knock off any campaign quest chains tout de suite, rather than letting them fester “for later” in their quest log.
Which is why they like radically re-phasing commonly-used areas of the world for quest-specific configurations: it’s supposed to be very temporary.
I can’t think of a reason Goldshire would phase. Are you on Chromie time? Try turning it either off or on, depending whichever you are using now.
I know I had a problem in Duratar with the boat disappearing because I was in the wrong time. I also got stuck in BFA time and had problems with the Hallows End quests.
If you haven’t completed the intro to BFA try doing that, you can skip the intro by talking to Jaina if you have done the quest before.
I keep seeing the Broken Tusk candy bucket phase out from a BfA quest (rescue the Princess I think), but I CANNOT find that quest in my log, I KNOW I abandoned it, but every time I get close to the doorway, the bucket phases away.
