Clearing the wall was finally up. YAY! Can finally get those last 2 ring fragments to finish the gold hand mount… Ooh! Mad Construct spawns, starts running.
Despawns. Quest changes.
Clearing the Wall no longer there.
Come on Blizzard, please. This quest has been up once since these maw assaults have been a thing. And that was the very first Necrolord assault. This is just cruel at this point.
Gonna go cry myself to sleep now. (not really, but maybe, probably, who knows. QQ)
I was doing it on my Hunter since someone said it was finally up. So wanted to double check what to do so that I wouldn’t find a way to mess it up. Hunter grabs all 4 quests, while doing so, Mad Construct spawns.
Then, he goes poof and the quest changes.
It’s…legit ugh. Part of me is glad I was on my hunter, in hopes that they fix it later(so the quest reverts back to Clearing the Wall). Though I feel like given all the people who already did the assault, they missed out…yet again so Blizzard should just hotfix and reset the assault so we can finally finish our mount.
And not wait another 2 weeks, or 3 months, or god knows how long.
The randomness of stuff like that is really stupid planning on their point.
Especially with something important to gameplay. Remembering the memories fiasco at launch. Some people got their BiS memory from Torghast immediately, and others were waiting on content that wasn’t even released yet. Dumb.
Yea, it was up for a little bit, not long though. Foolish me figured I’d grab the weekly Korthia quest, do the tormentor, world boss and then the assault.
My hunter literally picked up the quest Clearing the Wall. But it changed after I had picked it up. So the quest was up and doable for like the first 15-20 minutes of the assault.
Blizzard’s mantra in a nutshell. "We heard you like RNG, so we are adding RNG to your RNG with a dose of RNG on the side, sprinkled with RNG, smothered in our all time famous RNGsauce. Oh, its also RNG on if you get a fork, spoon, knife, spork or have to eat with your hands.
To be fair, I don’t mind RNG. I’m used to it. But this is just stupid. Blizzard nerfed On the Offensive’'s assault achievement bit because of how rare some of the assault quests were. Yet they haven’t touched this bit for some reason. Just make all 4 ring fragments available anytime the Necrolord assault is up. Instead of tying 2 behind a specific quest that has only popped up during the very first Necrolord assault. (and very briefly for this one).
Though, I haven’t been back online yet, maybe its fixed. Doubt it. But oh well, whats a girl to do.
What did the quest change into? Sounds like a bug they just didn’t foresee. If you can’t remove the quests and see if you can get “clearing the wall” again I would submit a ticket and see if they can reset the whole thing for you, before its not too late.
I completed this tonight and here is order I did stuff in:
Click sparkly guy to open up quests, accept quest that leads to other quests at other entrance, turned it in, accepted quest where I drag robot parts into yellow circle and get assorted parts in various piles, turned it in, robot gets built, I jump in robot. Learned important things.
robot dies easily from mobs, get up on wall ASAP, if u die, go get robot again.
Can only “high jump” in certain places and it will land you exactly were u need to, u can even jump on those “super-high” towers, some let you jump halfway up and then follow ledge around and drop to wall. You will see button light up when u can jump.
loot chests on wall till u get another quest, shoot pylons with button 2, go turn in, get ring.
At this point I didnt have Madwhatshisface ring nor “pick up on ground” ring. Madwhatshisface dies fast, especially if multiple players following and I missed him twice, so I waited by where giant crossbow is and was able to catch him finally. Found ring on ground in 15 minutes by where Shadeweaver Zeris spawns, went to 36.6 44.4 where Stygian Incinerator spawns, stood in front of forge, clicked on any ring and it made blue ring.
Went to Korintha, used rift portal by Yorik spawn, ran to Felwik nest, climbed up building ramp thingie, used goblin glider to get to mainland, and ran to maw to find cave entrance at 25.7, 32.5, in cave u see mount with clickable rings.
I suspect that when u get quest to collect robot parts, you shouldn’t do anything else until that whole robot part is done, Madwhatshisface spawns every 5 minutes so no hurry, but how could anyone know these things, before tonight I was like Jon Snow, I knew nothing.
I can’t remember right off(sleep didn’t like me so brain is dead atm). But I do know 2 tormentors spawned at once after reset too. So I’m just gonna assume things got borked. Though a friend told me the quest is up again, so seems like it was fixed.
I’ve got the rest of the ring parts, just need the one off mad construct dude and the one from the chest quest, then I can finish and finally get my precious bagspace back, and the mount of course!
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised though, its not too uncommon for things to bork or go crazy after reset. That’ll teach me for trying to be productive and get things done asap!
Yea seems it was fixed yesterday sometime after I went to bed. So did it earlier, so glad to be done, precious bagspace! Oh and the mount is nifty too.
