Has there been any word on them working on this at all? Seems like they just go radio silence on these issues when they release content like this.
It’s good it’s that one that’s broken specifically since 2 of the most common BiS gems come from him. Got to keep people from getting that 1% damage upgrade from a BiS ring.
lets hope that Tuesday will fix it
i had the cave is collapsing warning when we walked in
I do have a suggestion until they fix or, if you can try it in warmode. I did it twice and we had 2 people first and 4 people second with that few it’s easier to get everyone to listen.
Let a melee pull first, go stack on top of each other in the middle or back of the cave.
Most of the bugs seem to be ranged or entrance related so this isn’t perfect but it’s a better chance.
Its not going to be fixed this coming Tuesday …please its the day before Christmas…they are already on a skeleton staff now with the holidays till after New Years Day and beyond…they only thing that would cause more workers to come in is if there was a complete break down of all the servers now…besides its only rolling restarts this coming Tuesday Maintenance now.
I mean I doubt they do it on purpose…as I generally go to ineptitude before I go to conspiracy but…damn it feels that way. It really feels like they do things poorly just so they can slow stuff down while acting like they don’t.
Just damn annoying.
@Oortaielia
I get it but it certainly seems to just randomly lose it’s mind, and…just because I do that doesn’t mean horde is doing it. With this type of content I think having a reset of almost any kind doesn’t make sense. Put them on a tether and let people pull a certain distance and no more with no reset makes a ton more sense.
The event doesn’t even trigger properly, killed it twice while the bonus is up and not get the citrine since the bonus disappears mid fight.
Yup. not sure position matters but gotta do the best. They really need to hotfix it badly. Just poor quality control it feels like. I mean it’s one of the main things here.
I’m just not going to even bother with that crap content until they actually fix it, sorry Blizz, but I refuse to be a paying beta tester.
Good call, just annoying…also, possibly means you just won’t do it with they way they have been.
Don’t stand at the entrance. He is jumping out of the cave and resetting. Soon as people figured it out this after noon, issue stopped. Then as soon as a new group of people began to log in, same issue.
I was just able to get the first gem from him on the first try using a different strat after a bunch of failed attempts. Positioning did not matter. We had a raid group of ~20 people, popped hero, and burned him down incredibly fast. People dropped raid group at 2-3% and we all got gems.
I wanted to come back and say that the above method is 2 for 2. Get a big raid, burn boss down, and drop group right before he dies.
Yeah, I think another wrinkle people are unknowingly running into with this event along with the cave collapses is that it doesn’t seem you can get credit while in a raid group. I just got out of a group a bit ago that killed it ‘correctly’, with the event still active, dropped group right before it died, and was finally rewarded with the gem.
I’d killed it the exact same way earlier in the day (event still active when it died) but without dropping group and did not get credit.
This is not the issue. I have seen it happen when nobody is anywhere near the entrance. The boss doesn’t even reset, the quest just goes away midfight. Sometimes you kill him fast enough but you don’t get the quest reward so it doesn’t matter…ie no citrine.
