My cousin went to do his quest for the highmountain tauren today (Servants of Darkness) and when he turns into Huln Highmountain i only hit the mobs for 40 - 60 damage each attack, and get swarmed when they summon thier adds. Once that happens I get dazed, mobs go back to 100% and the quest is quite literally impossible to beat. When I did this on my account when the content was new this was not an issue and i remember being very powerful and having no issue with this. There is a thread on reddit of users with the same issue as of today.

Not sure if the link is allowed but this is literally blocking the ability to unlock this allied race currently in retail. We tried this on both my computer and his computer and the same thing each time. It is not localized to one client but seems to be a bug in the game.
Please assist!

Quest: Servants of the Darkness
Location: Snowmane Village, Highmountain
Mobs Effected: Necrodark Defiler, Dark Tendril, *Necrogg the Darkspeaker
Issue(s): “Huln Highmountain” form is not dealing enough damage/is taking too much damage to defeat the required mobs

Was going to do my allied horde races when I ran into the same bug. You can brute force the smaller enemies if your good at pulling. But that boss is an impossible stonewall. Hope they fix this soon. Because apparently it wasnt an issue before todays maintence.

I had this issue a few days ago. I tried for hours to kill him.
I would be chunked down in health and then get an 8 second faze. By then, the mob would reset. He was unkillable. Even by 3 other players.
I logged on yesterday and with another player and we were able to get him down the first time.
Idk if this has to do with player level? I was 60. He was 70.
Anyway- fix this for others please!

Posting here to comment I too am having this issue. Mobs are way overtuned to try and solo this quest. Additionally, when in the prior quests chains my dude never fazed even when taken to 0 health? Anyone else experience this?

Happening to me currently. I’m extremely irritated with it, don’t even want to complete the questline anymore.

I’ve been having this same issue, I think it honestly applies to all of the quests for Highmountain Tauren unlocking at least because they have monstrous health but it doesn’t matter as much there because you’re invincible

Im also having this problem. I was able to take down 10 of the required “little” mobs by harpooning and spamming the attack. Kill the mobs but his pet would finish me off. takes about 5-7 mins to regen to about 90% health. Rinse and repeat. HOWEVER…the elite guy you are suppose to kill at the end…no way! His health bar doesnt even move and when he summons his pet…just no way. im doing about 225-230 a hit and hes doing thousands per hit.

I am also having this problem, I was in a group with 4 other players all between 45-53 and we basically get one-shotted by Necrogg and deal almost no damage at all. Necrogg hits for 15-30k we hit for around 300 damage. This was on 4/3/24. I logged on 4/4/24 and the issue is not resolved.

Discovered a way. When I first started doing these missions, I had the same problem, then I noticed at certain points taurens would run in to the camp and start cleaning house. So I piggy backed them and actually killed him several times. Didn’t get credit because I was still on the defilers. But I used this method to kill them all. Only bad thing is , it took hours, and I’m trying to get necrogg now still. If one could figure out what the rhyme or reason was to when the allies attack, might prove worthwhile.
Method confirmed. Got lucky when two npcs rolled up to attack him. I joined in, actually was able to land multiple blows, and we got him. Takes a long time, but worth it.

Update as of May 10th: Still not fixed. Saw Farondis was fixed and others were saying it was fixed so decided to test it out. Was able to kill mobs but boss is still impossible solo. Seems Blizz only gave you more health and possibly health regen in combat, damage is still incredibly low and takes close to 30 full seconds to kill mobs let alone the boss. Would need a health pool close to 1 mil in order to kill boss with the regen or out of pure attrition.
Same problem. At lvl 41 and impossible to do. The other quests I was able to just brute force it because I couldn’t die and just spammed abilities. Not on Huln. He goes down and resets aggro so can’t even spend time on it.

Gave up trying to complete this when I got to the Elite mob.

There is just no way to kill Necrogg. I can’t deal enough damage. I’ve tried like 20 times, each time waiting until I am at 100%. Even had a couple of us trying at the same time. How many of us will it take to kill him? This needs to be fixed soon.

Bumping with the problem too. Level 53. The mobs are pretty hard but not undoable if you spam the gore and run in circles while spamming attack. They go down pretty quick that way. But the boss Necrogg is just not possible. I tried everything I could think of and he always takes me down in five or six hits. By that time I have taken maybe 5 percent of his own health. I hope they update it soon because the Highmountain Tauren are the last race I have to unlock (and the one I want the most…)

Can’t kill it even with 2 players, 10 days and it still isn’t fixed. Really demotivating to play like this

Got the same problem i can’t even get pass the mobs before the boss getting 2 hits and sure i do not die but can’t even get one kill because i do like 100 damage and they do 20k damage per shot.
Been trying off and on as I level up for over a week. Still an issue as of today. Unfortunate.
