My character is looting the cleansed songflower and then songflower goes on cooldown and i do not receive the buff. I am wondering if the faster loot times might be causing this bug to happen. Doing this at level 60 so the songflower buff should be obtainable and as far as i know this buff is not removed in wrath.
I’d like to share an update on this bug from having tried some mad ideas to be able to pick up a songflower serenade for my Death Knights’ chronoboon collection.
I, too, was unable to get the buff by any regular means whilst having fulfilled the basic criteria (level cap and so on) so I began attempting some unorthodox approaches in order to diagnose the issue.
At first I wondered if it had something to do with the new, faster cast time (maybe it’s hard coded to be awarded only after a set amount of time of cast bar) so I tried dueling myself with a warlock on my second account to put on curse of tongues beforehand. This, of course, did nothing. However, on a whim I made my warlock click the flower before I tabbed over to click on it on the Death Knight.
And to my surprise, my warlock “cast” the Songflower Serenade on my DK, as a debuff!
Afterward I released my chronoboon and recaptured the buffs, and the debuff version of the songflower buff was actually stored normally into it.
My guess is that the bug is caused by one or two different things that may warrant further testing;
- It’s cast on whomever you target (may work by selecting yourself when clicking)
- It’s cast as a hostile action towards your target, so you can only be given the buff by another player either through a duel or crossfaction
No matter which one is happening, hopefully this is helpful in fixing it.
