would have been funny if that had caused a 18 Shaman kill in the RWF
a bit late but thx for addressing some of the issues around getting it.
honestly idk why crowd control dmg had to be reduced… it’s pretty easy to dodge lol
Sandworm Relics really need to be changed to a currency.
As much as the relic change is nice, still doesn’t change the fact that most of that gear will be worthless fairly quickly.

At least have the Sandworm relic gear upgrade alongside the World Quest gear 6/6 its way behind.

Here’s the hotfix update for the day:
MARCH 18, 2022

Quests
- Players who tell Tal-Inara that they have been to Zereth Mortis before and have already met Pocopoc will now receive the Enlightened reputation they would miss out on by skipping those quests.
- Developers’ note: Enlightened reputation is strongly tied to the Zereth Mortis campaign, and we felt it was unfair to have a high hidden cost associated with using the dialogue option that skips the Zereth Mortis introductory quests for players who’ve already completed the introduction on other characters. This change addresses that by making the choice net neutral with regard to Enlightened reputation.

If we’ve already skipped, how do we get this missing rep? It’s certainly not showing up automatically.

Is this retroactive for alternate characters that have already used the skip option for Zereth Mortis prior to today’s hotfix?

Still no fix for Deathborne removing itself if you try to pop it prepull? Its been an issue since nathria and now that its a decent covenant for Frost mage we can’t pre-pull pop it or it just deletes itself. But still no sign of a fix, and its not gaining any traction. It literally destroys dps for me to even try to use it prepull because it just goes away. And I lose dps if i have to cast the whole thing in the middle of my opener. Its not absolutely devestating, more of an annoying bug to deal with. No traction on any post in the bug reports for it outside a few people who are concerned. Not enough traction = not getting fixed? Have you all just not seen the post and are legitimately not aware it exists or is it a work in progress/known bug that I haven’t found listed anywhere?

So… this retroactive, or are all my alts that I already took to ZM just SOL on that rep?

Please make the reputation retroactive for the Zereth Mortis skip, missing out on all my characters is such a feel bad.

I am terrible at SQL, and I could 100% figure out a DB scrape to award the missing rep to characters that have already completed that (albeit invisible) quest ID.
Like… Stop it with the half-measures, damn.

Sorry to say but this is intended.

Why does the key for this cache have such an obnoxiously low drop rate?

What about the players who already “skipped” ZM so now we’re stuck behind on rep? Is there a hotfix planned to give us that rep? It’s made it much more difficult to get revered by next week.

I have 9 alts that have already skipped it (all of my alts), will they be granted the missing reputation? If not this is too late for all of my characters.

now this is game changing for alt being an friendliness option.
before it was an alt hinderance trick as you would save a few hours but loose days and days worth of rep. a real “what’s the point” of getting passed the quests if all you can do is stand around waiting for world quests to reset. all other optional rep grinding would have been there all the same regardless so not really a rep catch up solution.
this is a really good change. thx.
