Trying to do Lord Rhyolith and the fight is bugged. Controlling the boss movement is not working as intended. No matter how much DPS there is on a leg the boss will not move in any direction. The only way it is possible to get any movement is if you get insane RNG on Volcano spawns and 2 or 3 of them spawn in front of the boss. Please can the boss be fixed before time walking is over this week or the event be extended.

I’ve done multiple pull this week and still cant do it.
We did it using only 2 dps on the leg, everyone else was on adds. As soon as you can get him in the middle just sit on the left leg and he turns in a circle.

It doesn’t help that the direction meter seems to have trouble staying accurate as well.

Same. He would not turn properly. No more than like 25 degree turn no matter how much dps.

What size raid group? I have been going at this for a few days now, been doing all kinds of starts to try to turn the boss.
Did this fight on 2 Alts.
Yesterday: Group A: 15 people (9 dps)
-Downed it, was a bit tough with degree turn but overall progress and kill
Today: Group B: 30 People (20 dps)
-All dps focused one leg, got some degree turn for about 3 seconds before it zeroed out again
-We wiped and couldnt kill the boss due to legs not turning.
Blizzard needs to explain how the turn mechanic/functionality precisely works and if the Timewalking scaling is having any effect on cleave dmg or not contributes to it. One theory I suspect is that cleave dmg being splashed onto the other leg is off setting the progress made on the main one for some reason.
We tried only having melee attack legs but even melee made no degree progress. But once again there was splash / cleave dmg being done to other legs.
Possible Solution: Maybe see if Only single target and absolutely no cleave OR splash dmg being done will bypass the bug/scaling issue of the degree turn functionality.

15-18 people were in our raid. You definitely need someone to call out when to switch to each leg. Not going to lie when he looks like hes about to walk into the lava keep dpsing and he will suddenly stop and look.
On a side note , Ragnaros is unkillable as the tuning is bugged. The sons of flame arent killable before the reach the hammer and wipe the raid
There were 21 people in our guild run. We eventually had to assign (very) specific people while everybody else focused on the adds. And while it was done mostly like that back in the day as well, I know for a fact that Lord Rhyolith didn’t have nearly as much trouble being turned.
Same issue, whole raid on one leg still would not turn. Made sure no dots or anything on other leg. Really sad rn because we will not be able to clear the instance due to the bug.

Same here, just tried and bugged wont turn for more then a few seconds
Just cleared this on timewalking today. For Rhyolith, there are certain abilities that seem to cause him to reset his direction, have a single person steer him around the room (we used a marks hunter) into the volcanoes while the rest of the raid kills adds. Once his armor gets low you can have the group contribute or wait until his armor is gone to pop lust and down him. The one thing that seemed to really mess him up was judgements from paladins.
Ragnarok adds seem to be fixed, we had no problem killing adds before they reached the hammer. Overall it seems fairly well tuned (maybe a bit high for something that people havent done in years or ever!)
everyone in raid attack left foot he walks straight into lava

Why is this still an issue four years later? We had to bail tonight because steering him was pretty much not happening.
