I have used a script and a macro with spamming keys like crazy and it’s still not enough… what gives? I wouldn’t care if Torch Juggler wasn’t part of the last World Event that i need to complete for my reward mount. I’ve used all the current online suggestions…i dont know what else to do?..

Wowhead retail says this
1. Create this macro and put it on your bar
#showtooltip
/use [@cursor] Juggling Torch
2. Buy 15 torches (you can probably do it with less, that's just what I bought.)
3. Head to old Dalaran in the sewer (low ceilings)
4. With your cursor on your character's feet, spam the macro until you get the achievement. It should take roughly 6 seconds.
5. Save the macro and use it with other reticle targeting spells. Like Earthquake, Hunter traps, Starfall, Blizzard, Meteor.. so on and so forth.
Have fun.```Doing this with 25 torches and no luck I get to 37 with 3 secs left and poof it resets
After alot of trying I was able to do it in the room next to the badge vendors in Dalaran Not sure why it finally worked. Theres a certain timing for sure.

Yeah I’m not getting much better luck, and it’s getting annoying, the highest I can get to is 37, but it also seems like I’m getting all the torches at once, also it’s not letting me throw despite still having more in my inventory, I’m using 20 and it stops around 7 or 8, even shows in chat with timestamps that I’m getting all of them back in the same tick, so it seems rather broken, also the fact that it has to be in Dalaran of all places, usually one of the laggiest in any server since more people’re there than anywhere else that I’ve seen. Heck, phasing still doesn’t work well there in my server.

This worked for me taken from WoWHead comments:
As for all the people having troubles doing this, only reaching up to 35-39 torches (a lot of people on my server have this issue, as do a lot of people on wow forums…)
Just found a working way for myself (after trying for at least one hour by simply spamming keybind + clicking)
I put down all my graphic settings to minimum (i got a monster machine, but hey, it still helps a bit, i suppose…), turned off all my addons and stood on the lower floor part of dalaran (outside the actual city) outside of violet hold.
Then i did this:
/script SetBinding("2 ", “CAMERAORSELECTORMOVE”)
/script SetBinding("3 ", “CAMERAORSELECTORMOVE”)
This will temporarilly bind a key (I picked 2 and 3 but you can use anything) to your mouse click until you log out.)
(note that afterwards you do have to rebind whatever is on these buttons)
I then made a macro:
/cast Juggling Torch
/cast Juggling Torch
/cast Juggling Torch
/cast Juggling Torch
/cast Juggling Torch
/cast Juggling Torch
and bound this to 7 on my keyboard (once again, can be anything, this was most comfortable for me)
I began spamming 2 +3 (with my middle+index finger from my right hand) and spammed 7 with the indexfinger of my right hand.
After roughly 2 complete cycles (to start up the counter properly) i got it.

Honestly, when something like THAT is what’s needed to be able to do an achievement, you’ve made a stupid friggin achievement.

not so glad I’m not the only one with this issue, my hand actually hurts after 20 minutes of trying, 37 is the furthests I’ve been able to get, idk how anyone with any sort of dissease like arthritis is suppoused to do this sort of stuff
Yeah exactly, mine’s starting to hurt as well and the catching just seems like it’s getting worse, I’ll throw a bunch, then I’ll get stuck catching one, two…three…four… and it just stops me from doing more, and I’m watching others do the same.
It is probably Dalaran lag. You only need 10 torches to do it… or at least I only needed 10. So probably gotta try during off hours or just get 40 and hope.
No macro was actually needed I just put the things on my hot bar.

I put it on my hotbar and spammed 8 + left click mouse on top of my character while camera facing directly on top of me. took a few times to get the rhythm, but I did it in the afternoon in the room you can teleport to after finishing Higher learning to minimize the lag

ive got quite a few characters both in wrath classic and retail(14 80s to be exact and im doing this on 5 toons right now just in wrath alone) but some its like lagging up for a few seconds and its just not working. Ive done this without issues but some characters are having issues. im not the only one running into this. my computer is good. ive tried turning off all add ons, turning graphics to 1, trying the low ceilings, high ceilings, all the macros posted, nothing is working on my druid im still having some hold up on it casting. im pretty tired of seeing peoples comments about how they dont understand why people are having issues somethings definitely not working right for some characters. my computers good latencys good, etc. nothing is making sense ive tried everything

Back in the day we just aimed the camera down and put it on our action bar
You don’t need to make a macro lol
this absolutely does not work you get about 9 torches in the air when then your character just stops being able to throw them for 10 seconds

Losing my mind over this. Highest I’ve gotten is 32 with spamming macros. No way this is working as intended. Needs a fix!

Purple protodrake bros not like this!
it’s like once you start catching the torches you can’t do anything else until the game has finished counting them.
and while you visually have already caught them the game seems to try to count like one per second

I have taken all advice and tried it for 40 mins, and it is still not working. My fingers are hurt because of this bug. If a fun achievement needs people to try so hard and may hurt themselves, this game sucks.

so using the curser macro i found that if i went into the sewers in a pipe with no one else around it finally worked. im guessing it was the dalaran lag that was making it not work anywhere else- i went down by the pipes by the pvp area instead of doing it in the entrance
