Flight of the Wintergarde Defender bugged, Be warned!

WoW Classic Cataclysm Classic Discussion

This quest is pretty heavily bugged.

This bug happens if you land on the ground at any point and get mobs to aggro you. As soon as you fly up and mobs should disengage and stop attacking you, you get DC’d, and after you log back in, you are still stuck in the same spot 5-7 yards above the ground, you’ll be on the floor with a parachute, and no matter where you move, your actual position will still be in the same spot 5-7 yards above the ground where you got DC’d. Somehow murdering the mobs that aggroed you, and calling another gryphon and mounting it fixes the bug, but it caused me to die a few times and STILL BE STUCK to get done with this quest.

Worked fine for me last night though.

There’s a quest in icecrown that is still bugged today on retail and GM’s are aware.
The fix on retail is to enable warmode, the fix on classic is waiting until server restart and being the first guy doing the quest.
I forget the name though.
Imagine knowing about a bug for over 10 years and not fixing it. Gl with your bug.

I’ve spend so much time on this bug now. I’m completely stuck. I’ve tried everything, but I keep dying when I res at the spirit healer (I can’t res where I died) from mobs that keep attacking me that are invisible. I can’t outrun them and even when I run to another zone entirely, healing myself. When I die I return at the spirit healer near this quest and it starts all over again. Groundhog day… but not that funny.

If someone knows a way how to escape this faith, would be great. I’ve played wow for over 15 years and this is the worst bug I have ever faced.

Update is sad and funny: I made a ticked and the waiting time is 13 days and 4 hours. In the meantime I cannot revive my character.

Working as intended?

A few ideas to try while waiting for support response:

  • try using unstuck tools
  • try using some effect that deals damage to attackers, like Druid’s “Thorns” - might kill the mobs attacking You
  • while in ghost form, try running to a different graveyard and resurrecting there
  • try running to a settlement, maybe the guards will take care of the the mobs?
  • have a paladin cast bubble on Yourself and use heartstone
  • invite a mage into the party, have them conjure a portal for You and try hopping through it

If any of this works, please leave a comment here for others who may encounter same issue.

edit: more ideas.
