Primal Storms Rotations

I will admit, I probably don’t have as much reason to point out this issue as some of the others in this thread. But it is a real issue that the air spawn sucks. I have been really busy throughout the rest of pre-patch with IRL. I had the first two elements earlier in pre-patch and had all day today to get everything else. I haven’t seen air spawn all day. This spawn rate needs to be more often. Not everyone is able to devote 24 hours a day for 2 weeks to watch the invasions. If it was a matter of it had a regular spawn and I was missing that spawn time, I wouldn’t be upset, but it apparently hasn’t spawned in days. I had no hope to even get air. There is not long left before the event ends. Please Blizz give us air.

Yep. Been farming this hard for 3 days, i got the achievement earlier in the week but not the Primeval Storm for the trinket.

Storm/air has been too rare and I feel alot of people (like myself) have missed out on the trinket as a result…

Adding the stone to the vendor would be better than nothing, but then we miss out on the achievement.

Primal storms not spawning the rotation has been earth fire and water for days. blizzard please fix or be nice enough to give the item to everyone. It is unfair to those of us who missed out on storm before it got bugged

Confirmed over 24 hours since last storm spawn, possibly a longer gap prior too as another thread has people who camped from around 6 am to 1-2am CST four days now

It has spawned once in the last four days (at 3 AM).

It hasn’t. I’ve been on for the past 4 days at every spawn and no air elemental has spawned.

That’s even worse, then — as though one spawn among the last 100 invasions was not already obviously broken. Why has Blizzard not acknowledged this issue?

We all need to raise tickets, It’s 10.30 pm in Aus I have been checking today since 6 am, not to mention the last 2 weeks

Not today been online and awake over 24 hours to watch for it and wake hubby if it spawned as he has work and needed to sleep lol and I don’t. I have heard it spawned at 3am a day ago, but haven’t seen it since, and prior to that others reported not seeing it in the hours I reported in my original post (notice 3 am isn’t in the range I reported :wink: )

yo blizz the timer is running out. all we need is the air one, and a lot of people are going to miss it-- right now is when everyone is catching up, especially in NA after the holidays with people likely working overtime for thanksgiving and black friday + cyber monday.
last time i saw air was 2-3 days ago, and a lot of people need the air element! please fix this!

It seems like no one is listening. Reminds me of FFXI back in the day - there was a forum but the lights were all off and the devs were kind of thin-skinned and didn’t like criticism. It had a bit to do with culture, but more of it just was they wouldn’t elect a rep that could manage the community and communicate the issues. I thought years ago there were a handful of reps here… Ghostcrawler comes to mind but I know he is long gone since forever.

Blizzard has let the internal issues they have affect the quality of the games, which ironically will probably be the only thing that can take them down.

Folks @ bliz… Good luck. If this is the best your team can do… you’re in trouble and no amount of fancy packaging will be able to conceal the obvious rot.

This is terrible they obviously want everyone that was farming this the whole long 4 day weekend to be upset. It hasn’t spawned once Thursday - today Monday which is the last day… This event needs to be fixed and extended into the expac release

Personally I think it should just continue until the end of the xpac. Some prepatch events would interfere with normal gameplay, but something like this? It’s cool enough that they could make it a part of the world until we’ve sealed up the breaches. And perhaps add more over time until we’ve properly managed the world again.

So many missed opportunities to make this recycled content actually matter to the game world.

Do you have permission to use this Blizzard trademark?

Yeah, the fact that it’s been utterly broken and they’re not acknowledging it is fantastic. Really gives me faith in the next expansion when the pre-patch event can’t even function properly.

I agree they should just leave them up, it’s not like they make use of these zones 99% of the time these days, even for leveling new characters. It’s outrageous that it’s been over half a week since the last Primal Air element and not a peep from Blizz about it.
