Unbroken Selffound Champion - buff just disappeared

Dear Community, dear Blizzard Developers,

after ten days of /played, my selffound warrior “Grinsekatze” finally reached level 60! I was so happy. Minutes later, due to a bug, I lost my “unbroken selffound champion” buff and my disappointment was unspeakable. My Duo Partner “Unwürdig” didn’t even get the buff. I am from Europe, so I payed for a second (U.S.) account and got a character to level 10, just to be able to post here, because our gamemasters couldn’t help. I am reaching out to you, dear community, to spread word about this issue, (me and my friend can proof via screenshots/video) so we might get heard by Blizzard developers to fix the problem. The selffound community may be small, but I suppose we all are into the game wholeheartedly! I play WoW since Vanilla and never ever have I felt the need to write a forum post, but this time I’m asking for help! Me, my friend and probably hundreds of people want our,their buffs back!

Sincerely

Grinsekatze, Horde, EU - Nek’rosh

That’s a pretty big deal!

Grats on reaching 60 in HC, and as self found!

Long live Grinsekatze, The Unbroken Self-found Champion!

I hope you get this issue resolved.

Thank you, SIR! <3

Word!

I recommend adding to the bug report page (and making an in game bug report as well)

appreciate your answer! :slight_smile:

The care this company gives to the integrity of Era, hardcore, and now self found has dropped off greatly imo. The advent of their flashy seasonal game, and putting it on the same client has caused a host of bugs. Many of these have simply been swept under the rug, ignored, and I doubt they are able to correctly many of them.
I returned for self found. I was able to ignore a lot of the issues, but this one was the last straw. I started this character before self found became official. Switched to a new character since Koki would get no credit for that effort. With this new bug, playing the SF mode is irrelevant now.
Unsubbed.

honestly, I can’t help but feel you kinda deserve it for abandoning the SF life style at 60. It’s something I will never give up :expressionless: SF forever.

I think you misunderstood. I (and others) never dropped the SF buff but the achievement still disappears after an hour or 2 (or re-logging).

This is true for all SF players who dinged 60 after the patch.

Dropping the SF buff is not related to the bug at all.

That’s not what everyone else is saying… :expressionless:

The point of that particular person is that IF you drop the SF buff, the achievement is the only way of knowing what you did.

However, I know MANY people (including myself) that dinged 60 and are STILL SF and the achievement disappeared.

As I said, the loss of the buff is not necessarily related to dropping SF. I never dropped the SF buff and the bug hit me (and others)!

I see. Well, if you are still SF, it doesn’t really matter. But if you abandoned SF, then you really are exactly like a character who leveled to 60 without SF, and I can see why that would be upsetting :expressionless:

A Gamemaster lately answered, that he recognised this post (or the german one, idk) and passed it on internally, so developers might finally find out their SF Community is struggling!

This is a good sign imo, thank you all for your help already! <3

Lets see if Blizzard manages to rescue a whole gamemode of being abandoned, due to a major issue, that can’t be ignored. I already turned down SF-Mode with my alts…atm, like Koki pointed out earlier, there is, at least in my opinion, no point in leveling a SF character up to 60, if you’re not planning to stay SF forever.

We put in the effort, we deserve the credit. Simple as that!

Much love,

Grinsekatze, Horde, EU - Nek’rosh

That is good news. It would be nice to hear an official update. I have some good images of my “bug” event here. Probably should have linked these earlier.

Update:
I plan to make periodic updates until this is corrected.

As of Today the Unbroken Self Found Champion Achievement is STILL MISSING from my lvl 60 SF NE Rogue.

60 SF NE rogue (Defias Pillager)

Good luck , seems they forgot about us devoted beta base players and could care less, too busy counting the potential profits of the war within their own corporation.

Self-found. Duo. Self-found… Duo…

there’s no contradiction there sir :expressionless: it’s self found, not solo self found.

your comment shows me 2 things and I mean that in the most polite way possible:

  1. you seem to completely have missed the point, what the topic is about.
  2. You seem to be uninformed about the definition of SF (vs. SSF for example).
    Correct me if I’m wrong.

Bump, this is still an issue, i needs to be resolved.

Maybe while they’re at it they can fix the “Survivor of the Firelord” that’s been broken since HC launch

Yes! That one is broken too. Fingers crossed for you and all of us! :slight_smile:
