Is My Toon Bugging?

I’m wanting to see if there is a problem with my character.

I was fishing up the rares for Secret Fish of Mechagon and had all but three. Then I got one of those, turned it in, and went to get one of the two I was missing. Several minutes later I was disconnected. When I got back on I asked if anyone else got DCd and I got a ton of “yes” and “yep”.

Furthermore, neither myself nor anyone else was where they were when DCd, we were back where we were 5-10ish minutes before that. Some said their jetpacks wouldn’t work now, some said they had quests missing from their quest log, some said they had completed a quest but not turned it in yet and now it was showing as not completed, some said quest items they’d picked up had vanished from their bag.

I took a look at my character and noticed that rare fish I’d caught and turned in minutes earlier was showing as not caught in the list. Um, ok? So fine I’ll catch it again. Now here’s the problem. Nine hours later and I still haven’t caught it again. That seems wrong and quite frankly I’m seriously pissed at having to waste this kind of time since I had that stupid fish to begin with.

What appears to have happened is a roll-back, nothing else explains all of this. But my question is did it bug my toon so even though the fish now shows as not caught the game thinks I did catch it so that’s why after nine hours I still haven’t caught it again?

Toon: Akujack
Server: Turalyon
Time: approx 2:20pm central
Fish in question: Bolted Steelhead

It certainly sounds like there may have been a server glitch. Those are pretty rare too! The best advice I can give regarding your trouble with catching the fish is to put in a ticket so that a GM can look into it.

I’d keep it short and simple. Something like “I seem to have experienced a server roll-back on day/time and I believe that it has caused my quest to break.”

Include the quest, character, server etc. and they should be able to look into it for you. Hopefully they can lend a hand with it too!

Thanks Perl, I just put the ticket in because I don’t want to waste anymore time fishing for this critter if I have no chance to catch it.

Editing: a big thank you to GM Mindosiale who saw the fish was “stuck” and unstuck it applying him to the list which gave me the achieve! Now I can go collect the secret fish from all over to get my toy!

Editing again at 5:03 central time 7/15:
Yeah ok blizz what is going on with Turalyon? This ‘insta-DC and now I’m not back where I was when it happened but where I was a few minutes before’ just happened again about five minutes ago.
