Shipping & Handling Bugged

In World of Warcraft retail, Shipping & Handling is bugged.

About 3 or 4 days ago during a Surge Pricing, I started doing Shipping & Handling objectives for it. When it ended, I got the “30 second mandated break” objective, so I completed it and then used the hand caddy to opt out of Shipping & Handling right as the next job popped up.

That is when the bug started. My character Rixxiel is stuck with the Shipping & Handling objective called “Food Fight: Cole Hotrocket” which persists as a listed objective when opting out of Shipping & Handling, is not reset when opting in, and cannot be completed in any way.

Since the game stuck flagging my character as on this job it won’t give me a new one, and the caddy caller doesn’t help “reboot” the Shipping & Handling flag, like it’s job queue problem. And since I can’t do any Shipping & Handling jobs like this, I cannot participate in Surge Pricing, which is really frustrating and prevents me from tagging along with friends to do it.

I’ve seen other players have this same issue in the forums and are not able to work around it. I have tried what I mentioned above, opting back in, opting out after, opting in and going to the objective area to try to complete it, spamming opt-in and right-clicking the buff to opt out the same time with the keybind on my G-99 breackneck. I even tried deleting and undeleting my character to see if that would reset it. Nothing worked.

This has persisted even after the recent hotfix. Please help, I’m loving this patch so much, I don’t want this spoiling it forever. On a GOBLIN character nonetheless!

EDIT: I forgot to mention, this is not an account-wide issue, it’s character specific. If I log into another character I can participate in Shipping & Handling just fine. And no, that’s not a solution, I want to play this patch on this character, I’ve already gotten so much done. Please fix it.

SOLUTION: A workaround has been found!

First, find the ID of the job you’re stuck on here: https://www.wowhead.com/storyline/ff-task-list-5643

Then run this command as provided by Graveblossom (replacing YOURQUESTID for the one you found on the list above):

/run iAbandonQuestID = YOURQUESTID; C_QuestLog.SetSelectedQuest(iAbandonQuestID); C_QuestLog.SetAbandonQuest(); C_QuestLog.AbandonQuest();

Currently having the same issue and its with for want of a name: billy shakesdown and doing all the steps does not allow interacting with the zone for arrive at hovel hill criteria. This is lame.

Yup, same issue here on my character, Bloodboo. Specifically it has me stuck on Goldfish Rescue: Rusty Tidbit, so it seems to me this bug isn’t job specific, rather something with the mechanic as a whole.

Oh absolutely

Exact same bug and character specific, just on another job. Haven’t found a workaround it really sucks, hope it gets fixed for everyone quickly.

My main has this same problem. Really annoyed to be soft locked out of S&H. If I hadn’t already done the weekly I’d be furious. Hope this gets fixed with the reset.

If anyone find a work around please advise. So far tickets are no help since you are just talking to customer support and not one who can fix.

Just here to say I’m having the same issue, with a ‘Signed, Sealed’ job on my warlock. I’m locked out of at least 2 of the first weeklies of season 2 because of this… I’m hoping someone figures something out soon, as I doubt Blizzard will be helpful here :[

I am also having this exact same issue with the same job listed and everything.

Same issue!

Same here, had it for 4 days.
Submitted a GM ticket, got told to submit a bug report.

Done this, hoped that it would fix itself with reset, didnt.

Submitted another GM ticket to see if they could complete my quests due to an acknowledged bug, got told no :frowning:

Okay small update, I just completed a delve, Sidestreet Sluice, and the job disappeared from my objective bar. It’s still on the map though, and I’m still not getting new jobs from Shipping & Handling.

EDIT: Nevermind, I rebooted the game, it had to update. Hope. Logged back in, job still there. No hope.

Same error: S&H ‘Arrived at the Heaps’ bug with no circle to trigger the job at the Heaps, happened last week and looks like it persists through this week as well. Unable to complete weekly due to it.

This helped!

Theres a little button by the quick facts on the quest page on wowhead that says ‘links’

if you click that one of the info is the quest ID.

For hotrocket it seems theres 2 different ones, one for burgers and one for hot dogs. so try either 84791 or 84788

Bruh how did you find it? I put Food Fight: Cole Hotrocket into WoWhead’s search bar and came up empty, I’ve been trying to mess with LUA//API commands to try to force the game to tell me so far to no avail xD

UPDATE: IT WORKED! IT FRIGGING WORKED HAHA! THANKS!

They arent always named after what it shows up as. For instance: It doesnt say Food Fight. It says ‘Hotrocket Burgers’ and ‘Hotrocket Hot Dogs’

this is the list of Shipping and Handling Jobs
