Didn’t get the golden schematic for the Delver’s Gob-Trotter. Boss had no loot at all and nothing returned in the mail. Could be because I killed it earlier in the day on ? difficulty to get the first achievement and the golden propulsion rig.
Additionally, during the fight when the underpin calls for reinforcements, they would often times sit and cast from the stands without jumping down, making them impossible to kill.
I encountered this same thing 7 hours ago on my kill attempt. Tried relogging, swapping characters, re-killing the boss, all to no avail. No [Delver’s Gob-Trotter Schematic: Gold], and a ticket response with half of the ticket talking about Zekvir.
I had also killed it on ? difficulty first, as well as experiencing the adds not jumping from the stands. I noticed it would start happening roughly 4-5 minutes into the fight, and frequently would occur after the second or third attempt without exiting and re-entering the delve.
Edit: Final ticket response indicates that bug reports are currently the only way to get this resolved. Let’s hope this gets noticed, the look is really cool!
I’m going to try on ? difficulty tomorrow and see if he wants to cough up the goods for free and if nothing then I’ll try repeating ?? on thursday.
Noticed this same thing on ?? mode. After like 10 pulls, they stopped jumping down and casting those telegraphed fireballs. They’d just cast [Shoot] at me from the stands.
I found a line of sight that lets me hit them, but god knows how melee are supposed to do that. Probably not intentional.
Also this is a sidething, but it seems like The Underpin just doesn’t go into the shield phase sometimes? Idk if it’s a 30-seconds-of-spellqueueing bit delaying it but I thought it was supposed to be as soon as it hits 100 energy. It’ll just keep doing other stuff for a while.
And how did you killed it in ?? mode?. I noticed the same bug of robots at the stands. The shoots are hitting me for 240 K each and they are constantly how do you manage to survive to that?. You did it with healer Brann and you in tank spec?.
Need to leave and reenter after every attempt so the reinforcements in the stands doesn’t happen until late in the fight. I did it as brewmaster with dps brann.
what is you ilevel? and what curios did you use?.
Your ilevel is very high. How did you manage to heal did you use defensive brewmaster?. Brewmasters dont have good self healings. Did you use Season 1 trinkets?
thank you for yor answers. He meeles me for 1.3 M damage. I cant survive. Maybe it is buffed now.
Ilvl matters a lot. Your armor and stagger are going to be relatively weaker until about 660 ilvl. Even at 639 ilvl, my armor is normally 23.37% physical reduction but only about 19% from the underpin while my stagger was down from 40% base to like 25%. I don’t remember the exact numbers but it gives you an idea of how much weaker your defensives are. This isn’t limited to brewmaster as block, armor, and stagger all have the same formula.
Can confirm the achievement doesn’t award the appearance. The title for the kill is awarded at least. I had the same issue with the adds spawning in the stands. It seems that the fight doesn’t want to spawn adds on the previous spawn (alive or dead), or oil, so it puts them in weird places. Including above in the stands. “Fixed” temporarily by running out entirely and back in.
Bumping for visibility
Adds spawning out of bounds right now make thios painful.
Out of curiousity, does he have the same quirk as Zek’vir where tanks take more damage than dps specs? I had to do Zek’vir ?? as Ret Pally instead of Prot Pally because it seemed nearly impossible as tank due to the insane damage intake.
I did Underpin ? at ilvl 624 (I basically just came back to the game after a break), but I’m going to be less than thrilled if it’s going to make me switch specs to do the harder challenge again.
I haven’t tried Underpin as any other specs or classes, but Zek’vir seemed to do a normalized amount of damage. So your armor didn’t matter against Zek’vir, he would hit a prot warrior for the same amount as a mage.
I also had the same issue, killed him on day 1 of season 2 (639 brewmaster). Killed the boss, could not loot and corpse went away quickly. I searched for chests around the delve, but nothing to be found. Re-logged, switched characters, looked everywhere but no schematic. I put in a ticket and at first they thought it was Zekvir I killed, so I replied back it was The Underpin. Got confirmation from the ticket that it is a bug and not working as intended, was told to put in a bug report and to comment on any forum related to the problem. I got the title, just no mount. Hopefully they fix it soon!
Edit: I killed him again today on ? difficulty just to see if any loot drops, again nothing. So the loot in general must be bugged.
Yup, I killed him yesterday again on ? and today again on ?? and no loot on either. If its a loot lockout problem, then its a weekly lockout. Will try again Tuesday.
I’ve done the achievment also today and didn’t not get the Schematic.
Also the adds spawning on stands i do believe its because the fight actually doesn’t completely resets. When you kill adds on an attempt, they leave a flaming debris on the ground and no adds spawn on that area during the attempt.
When you die and release, if you do attempt 2, they won’t spawn on those areas even if it is clean and when there is no total “clean” areas on multiple attempts, they start spawning on the crowd. Thats my theory, so any attempt you do, just go out and go back till they fix this.
Same problem here.
I also had to leave the Delve and re-enter for every attempt to prevent the adds from just spawning in the stands right away.
