As documented by DragonsAfterDark on Twitter, due to the RNG nature of Legion Pet Tamers, 3 did not spawn in time to complete defeating 3 of them before April 9th.
And since someone will go “why don’t you just go battle them without the WQ?” - That’s because Legion Pet Tamers are unique in that they only spawn when their WQ is up. Every other expansion’s tamers are always there and can always be challenged. But not legion.
Pet Battlers have been asking for years for the Legion Tamers to finally be put on a rotation due to this, as well as the fact there’s an achievement to complete 30 unique world quests, as well as the Family Battler Achievement that requires doing the fights with each pet type.
On top of this, some of the WQs have been bugged literally since BFA and have not spawned.
According to wowhead, this also happened the last time this same exact task was put on the Trading Post:
Can we not have impossible tasks in the Trading Post?
The beauty of the Trading Post is that items cycle back through periodically. Just because you weren’t able to do it this month doesn’t mean you’ll never be able to.
“OMG why bother, just do something else”
“Who cares, it’s not like you need it”
“So trivial”
“It only took me an hour by accident to get 1000 points”
Yeh, but OP is right, they are giving us things we cannot accomplish, it’s called feedback, it’s a way to improve the game, or do none of you care and just want to see the world burn?
While it is an oversight, there’s a good 100 other things to do that are less time consuming that flying around legion trying to do the pet tamers
My go to:
Rep (i save tokens and just use them on the first day of the month)
Crafting orders (send tailor 10 wildcloth bolts)
Weekly gathering quests
Killl world boss
And complete quick World quests.(which count as both quests and WQs completed)
They’re not really anything. I mean it wasnt impossible from the outset, right? It’s random. The three might have spawned. It only turned out to be impossible after the fact. But like, who was waiting to see which of the random things would spawn so that they could finish that particular task? Don’t they have better things to do with their time?
That’s true, but I feel like the tasks are intended to be varied in such a way that you can complete the Trading Post progress bar by doing the things you would normally do or want to do.
I also agree that if they put a task on the list, it should actually be achievable, even if there are other avenues you can easily pursue.
Well yeh, they are impossible to do. Can’t do your pet battle achievements, can’t do your pet battle trading post, can’t play the game because of bugs that have been what, 5 years since some of these WQ’s have spawned, so it kind of is a big deal to some people.
