Same here. They removed the need for the umbral amalgam, so I automatically got the achieve, but no pet! Booooo!
It is a bit technical, but I guess that the new achievement that was supposed to fix the reward issue, links to a CriteriaTree ID that is missing something.
Recently they avoided adding missing RewardItemIDs (e.g. Lilâ Bonechewer for âWorm Theoryâ or Fuzzy for âFamily Battler of Khaz Algarâ) to the original achievementsâ data. I donât know the reason, maybe rewarding players retroactively never worked or no longer works like this.
So instead, they added hidden copies (not exactly copies, but they name them copy) of achievements where they have the RewardItemIDs and the required criteria is the completion of the original achievement.
- For the âKhaz Algar Safariâ we have the original 40194 achievement with now 30 required pets (instead of the former 31 with Umbral Amalgam) and still no reward.
- We now also have the hidden âKhaz Algar Safari (copy)â 41683 achievement with the reward and this lists CriteriaTree ID 207362 which (for me with my baby-datamining) is not or no longer correctly connected to the original achievement or anything at all, while the other achievementsâ copies I mentioned somehow bring me to the original ones.
So from my understanding, the Devs have to check what is wrong with this CriteriaTree ID 207362 to make it trigger correctly when players complete(d) the original achievement by collecting the 30 required pets.
been a problem forever
check here Not receiving pet waxwick from achievement Khaz Algar Safari
Logged in after the change and found the umbral. Caught it and noticed the achievement never went off saying I completed it when I logged in. However, still no ding but the achieve is there. Like yâall, no waxwick. @BlizzSupport get on it
Feels like itâs a myth. Have the achievement, no petâŚ
I have also completed the Achievement âKhaz Algar Safariâ but have not received the Waxwick pet reward.
pet isnt real
issue persists
New Year, and still no pet (at least for me). Tickets apparently arenât helpful either? Shame, really. ): Just bumping this to keep it on Blizzâs radar and hopefully we get our lil pet!
Thanks everyone for the warning! I recently saw other people in dungeons with a little walking candle Wayne, which led me to find Waxwick. So sad heâs still bugged after all this time, but glad I know not to work on the achieve for the time being.
Waxwick still missing
I actually did the achievement and received him but then I also got the Umbral Amalgam before I finished the achievement so it is possible that could have been the reason or they may have fixed it giving it to you but have not put in something to give it to people retroactively that already earned the achievement like a friend of mine who still doesnât have it.
Best I can offer is everyone here send a bug report it every day you log on that you donât have it. Maybe after they are swimming in bug reports they may go about fixing it to stop the constant deluge of complaints.
Yep pet still missing, some hotfixes happened today (the cyrceâs circlet ring nerfed in pvp) no notes yet thoughâŚ
As of today, I have do not have the Waxwick pet. If they fixed this, I havenât seen and indication. I earned the pet when the changed the achievement and removed the one pet.
I did a combined bug report and an Item Restore request (the in-game ticket) and woke up this morning to having Waxwick in my mailbox.
I donât think this is the sustainable solution, but for those jonesing for waxwick, this worked for me.
Itâs easy in the Blizz API to see both your Pet Library and the achievements you have. I just cited that as a proof.
Just adding to the chorus. Completed Achievement, no pet.

Same. Still waiting for my Waxwick since getting the achievement with 11.0.7!
This is something customer service used to be able to help us with. I donât know why CS canât do anything anymore. I donât like having to wait months or more for fixes that only a few bugged people need.
Condition persists
Bug persists. No Waxwick.
