So I just went through all the 6/6 stages of the grand hunt, died on the very last stage as the mini-boss made huge giant swirlies that 1 shot you, Scout Tomul says sound the horn to inform the other hunters!
Great… where is this horn I’m thinking? I release , run to my body and boom all progress gone, nothing on the quest panel pane and nothing is marked on my mini-map?
bushweed…
So I just completed 6 stages for no reward? Absolutely yes.
I’ve since found this Scout Tomul , a new hunt has begun and i’ve got absolutely nothing for my time and work for the last hunt?
Did I miss something or is this just terrible game design? The hunts go very fast through the stages at times, and if you die that’s it tough luck?
Well thanks for the reply but that really doesn’t help or assist the issue i’ve faced. Not trying to get your back up but that wasn’t my experience at all
After making the post I went to Tomul and a new hunt spawned near to where she was. brand new fresh 6/6. I helped a beaver and then got the Epic purple pouch reward.
Thats where you done wrong
Don’t realease untill someone talks to the centaur, and you recieved the reward
The graveyard is usually out of the hunting zone, and while you away it don’t register you as there, and by the time you get back to your corpse, the hunt is over
I don’t think this is a bug
It is like with the World Quests, where you need to kill a rare or several mobs to fill the % bar
If you corpse run and “away” from the zone, nothing, nada untill you are the quest area again
In this case Event-area
There is no harm in suggesting they change it but I agree this has been a standard practice in wow for some time. I never releave from a rare until it’s dead if I’ve died fighting it. Otherwise I’m too far away to receive the loot or be eligible. Unless the g/y is really really close.
When you had the calling in SL to help the efforts and done a Dungeon, every boss worth 25%
If you died on Mue’zhala in Da Other Side too far at a totem, while the others killed it, simply wont registered because you were to far away
It wasn’t a bug either
Nor a WB kill, rare kill etc for loot
Not friendly thing, thats for sure, but it is not a bug
Actually since we have wow this was with us
Only if you are within a certain range you will recieve a reward or credit for the kill
Just to clarify. I did not release until the mini-boss mob was dead. The giveaway was the talking head / text saying sound the horn for the hunt being over.
If you mean to tell me… It is fully intended to have to wait on the floor while some other player pops off to go sound this horn, before I can get my reward? Without telling me that is what I must do…
I’m a bit lost for words, at least polite ones
It needs changing and that is all there is to it. You cannot have it work like that without informing players and looking at it just with some common sense should tell you it’s function is completely backwards and wrong.
If you tag the end phase mob / mini boss whatever name you want to call it, and you die , DC , PC explodes… whatever… you should get the loot
Period.
same thing in shadowlands. if u release during boss (like mortanis) by the time u get back u dont get credit for the wq…but get loot chance…blizzardcoding2022
The other day there was one near the dragonscale basecamp.
I got 4 stages of rep and then the bag for the completing it.
All while standing around at the camp sorting my bags out.
Its hilarious how easy it is to get free rep.
Im not complaining though. Ill take the bag of goodies for just happening to be nearby.
“Hey, I saw you here, you were with us with the hunt? Sheding blood and killing the prey”?
“Err… yes? *innocent eyes, because just stood there zoning out *”
“Cool, here is your share… next Hunt awaits sisters!”
Really, these Centaurs are like the Klingons
If you wander in to a bar fight they were in, they will celebrate you as a great warrior
