Thanks for wasting my time, Blizzard (Time Rifts Are BROKEN)

I did the latest time rift on Proudmoore. Total lag fest in the open world, of course.

But as soon as I was in the boss rift, I got booted. So did tons of other people. We kept flying back to the portal, only to be told Transfer Aborted: Instance is Full. Repeatedly, even sometimes getting back in only to find the boss was dead, again. This was until the timer ran out.

Total waste of time.

Who’s in charge of World of Warcraft quality assurance these days? This is really ridiculous.

Yeah the new event is rough to say the least. Even if it ran smoothly, it’s just a piss poor designed event.

It’s worse than poorly designed; it’s being completely ignored by the dev team, or at least the loud voices of the PLAYER BASE are being ignored.

Maybe they’re too busy watching streamers on YouTube and Twitch fawn over how wonderful they are.

Complete waste of time. Did the first part of the event but couldn’t get inside the rift. Finally get in and the boss is dead. Thanks for wasting my time and a lot of other peoples time.

I would never admit I worked for Blizzard. How humiliating.

Yeah…me and a friend were pretty excited to do these after the first one we did went pretty well. Then…well, we both got hit with the same bug and came to the conclusion that we don’t want to frustrate ourselves until they fix this.

Is the title a pun?

This feels like a pun.

You can take it that way, sure, but not what I meant.

Blizzard content is broken. They need to fix it and TELL US when it’s happening.

And I don’t even care about the event itself. I just want to be able to finish the Aiding The Accord weekly. The icing on the cake is that the weekly Aiding The Accord quest is part of this mess. I guess the only thing you can do is laugh. What else is there. :+1:

You still got tons of flakes, just not a shot at the boss lol

Its a know issue for whole community since the patch day, but Blizzard didn’t acknowledge it
Patch 10.1.5 Known Issues and Information

It’s not part of their list and we don’t have a reply with their next steps for a possible solution. Maybe they can’t fix it now but at least tell the player base that’s something in progress…Any communication is better that the silence when these issues happens.

This is why I wait before doing new big content.

I have enough shadowlands grinds to keep me busy.

Sounds like a “You” problem. Be more faster and you’ll get in.

Ridiculous reply, but you do you.

You know who gets into the time rift portals? The people who give up on the rest of the event in the last minute or two. Which means, everyone loses out.

Same happened to my BF, he got booted out of the portal at the end where we fought Illidan ---- and then he got no loot.
“Instance is full”.

I mean, come on… that’s just horrible.

A lot of people wait before doing new content… and they end up having a terrible time because there’s no one left to do it with. Example: all the rares in Zaralek Cavern nobody’s killing anymore.

Caverns was garbage on day 1 due to hp and damage being way overtuned by a ton

I’ve done one. Haven’t done another since.

You know who gets in the time rift portals? The people that filled up the bar. Again, be faster and you’ll get in.

You can go in without having filled up your bar…
