Overcoming the Unknown bugged

Overcoming the Unknown: Rage-Riddled Drifter World Quest is bugged.

it never shows up even after the weekly reset.

The ‘Overcoming the Unknown’ WQ is bugged to not reset with the weekly reset so you aren’t able to pick it up again.

You can check because the script to run to see if you’ve completed the WQ comes back true.

/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(89347))

I found this out when I saw the WQ up on a new level 90 alt but it was not up for any of my other characters that have completed it before.

so is the “uprising” achievement not doable unless u have alot of alts?

That seems to be the case. All the comments I’ve seen on wowhead also indicate it doesn’t respawn, so Uprising is bugged from being completable until they fix this world quest.

honestly baffling its been 3+ weeks and it still bugged, wtf blizzard

Since I heard alts might be able to see it, and after completing the campaign level 80 alts get world quests, I thought I’d check if I could work on it with a number of level 80 characters I’ve got.

Sadly, it appears that pvp world quests are different than regular world quests in this respect, and do NOT appear for level 80’s. So if you want to work on this, you need to have an alt that’s leveled to max, from which you can get credit for 1 more completion. Not ideal.

In the meantime, hopefully Blizzard fixes this Slayer’s Rise world quest to be capable of respawning and not permanently bugged to never appear again for characters that have done the quest.

Hello Blizzard Team,

I am writing to report a progression-blocking bug regarding the new “Slayer’s Mastery” achievement.

The Issue: “Uprising”: “Overcoming the Unknown”
Currently, a bug in the achievement’s criteria makes it impossible to complete as intended. To fulfill the final requirements in its current bugged state, the system is essentially requiring players to level 9 additional level 90 characters. Given the scope of the achievement, this extreme grind is clearly not the intended design.

This is one of the very last requirements I (and many other players) need to finally complete this achievement, and being hard-stuck behind an unintended bug is incredibly frustrating.

Our Request:
We are really hoping to see a hotfix for this deployed with the upcoming weekly reset.

If a fix isn’t quite ready for this reset, could we please get a quick acknowledgment (either a Blue Post or an addition to the Known Issues sticky) confirming that the team is aware of the problem and working on a solution? Just knowing it’s on the radar would put a lot of players at ease.

Thank you for your time and for looking into this!

still bugged as of today :frowning:

Bumping this thread as we just passed the weekly reset and unfortunately, the bug is still active.

Just to add some additional context for any CMs or Devs checking in: the achievement-hunting community (across various Discords, guild chats, and Wowhead) is completely bottlenecked by this right now. The requirement to level 9 additional characters to 90 is clearly a systemic calculation error for the achievement’s criteria, not an intended gameplay loop.

We completely understand that investigating and deploying a hotfix takes time. However, because this is a progression-blocking issue for the Slayer’s Mastery meta-achievement, a lot of players are left wondering if they should start this extreme grind or wait for a fix.

Could we please get a quick Blue Post or an update to the Known Issues sticky just to confirm this is on the team’s radar? A simple “we are aware and looking into it” would save hundreds of players from wasting hours trying to brute-force a bugged requirement.

Thanks again to the team for your hard work!

Was hoping to see this fixed with the new patch, but still not seeing this world quest reappear since killing it after initially hitting max level.
