I’ve also noticed with these if you break a soul out and click it as another stone prison in the same spot re-spawns, the next stone prison will be empty regardless of if you do the damage, or if you do the damage with your pet. I would assume this affects any class, as it seems like an issue with the previous soul being already present or recently present when the next stone prison releases a new one, but haven’t tried it yet on other characters.
i get souls with my pets out, typically its just 1 KC to pop them. i think sometimes they just dont have one.
This is inaccurate. I did my souls last week on the same 4 stone prisons that just respawned a few times each, immediately.
This is inaccurate. They always have a soul. Sometimes for pet classes the soul doesn’t spawn for whatever reason. Do it as MM with no pet (or as a non-pet class) and they are 100%.
I’ve killed the same stone prison 4x in a row too, and have had souls come out of it, but to get that to work, I have to wait a few seconds after the previous soul disappears before breaking the next stone prison, or it’s empty.
ok, but it also happens sometimes on my druid, and DK.

Treants? Ghouls?
Ghoul possibly. Bear druid, no pets of any kind.
I’ve never had a problem with this quest as BM. Getting a soul from one of these stone prisons isn’t guaranteed but only occurs 75% of the time. The soul doesn’t appear immediately but takes 1-2 seconds to show. AND when it does appear, it appears next to the character. It never appears next to where the stone was.

If someone else shoots it from a distance and kills it before you do, it will spawn next to them. I was on a ledge above one and spawned the ghost next to me while a warrior spun around below me looking for it.
My point is, it’s possible someone else tagged it for the kill and was far enough away from you that you didn’t notice it.

Since we started to get weekly quests to free 10 souls instead of 5 each time, I’ve simply dismissed my pets and destroyed the prisons myself(still playing as BM, just with no pet out).
I’ve gotten souls 100% of the time, whereas when I did them before with pets out and hitting the prisons, it was basically a guaranteed fail to free a soul if the pets landed a blow.
I deliberately called my pets out to destroy 1 prison with me this week. That was the only time when a soul did not appear.

It appears you can now get souls when hitting the stones with pets. Just went into the Maw today and used My Clefthoof to help break the stone prisons and was able to get spirits from every one.
They fixed it: it’s in the hotfix notes for today.

- Fixed an issue where Souls would not release from their Stone Prison if a player’s pet deals the final blow.

This is great to hear. Glad they paid attention to something related to Hunters for once. Now we just some tuning.
