[bigrougabagel]

I felt like crying at 1065, i'll shut up and take my hour long wait to login like a champ.

[Mortilox]

these fucking people and their massive mounts standing directly on top of quest givers when they use them.

[Correction]

Vashj'ir 160 quest achievement is not only impossible, but when you hit 148 and start following the Hyjal breadcrumbs, you LOSE TWO QUESTS TOWARDS THE ACHIEVEMENT.

Motherfucker...

Defending the rift is bugged on my server, idk where you found the hyjal breadcrumbs tho. Maybe because im alliance

Just before Abyssal Depths you get a quest that sends you back to stormwind, somewhere else between turning that in and getting ported to moonglade I lost another quest towards that achieve and now sit at 146/160. Blizzard will likely lower the requirement to 140-145, depending on how insane they are with expecting folks to kill Gnash and the other easily-missed mobs that drop quest-starting items.

[aurik]

It'll be 135-140 probably. Full clearing the zone as alliance gave me 146, but I'm sure I missed one or two here or there for a maximum possible of ~150.

From my experience full clearing most of the old world zones (redone all EK, missing 4 zones in Kalimdor), most zones had a buffer of 3-5 quests on the lore achievements, and these are zones with only ~50 quests. Over the course of 145 quests I'd expect a buffer of 10, if not more.

Looking forward to an updated EveryQuest-style mod that can inform me of any quests I have missed.

So you can't get the vashj achievement your saying? Good think I started in hyjal, guess I'll just do enough of vashj to hit 82 today and then go straight to deepholm.. Hopefully by the time I go back for loremaster it will be fixed. It's odd the requirements for Vashj are so tight when the Hyjal achievement was stupidly low. I think I had 20 or so more quests in Hyjal after I got the achievement. But my friend, who is alrdy 85, went back looking for the deepholm quest he missed for the achievement. Seems some zones require too many quests or make it so you can't skip anything

[aurik]

That is correct, Vashj'ir achievement is 160 for alliance, and there at at the VERY most 150 quests in the zone. For horde the requirement is 150, and going by the Wowhead comments, pretty sure even that is not reachable.

[Clemz]

I finished vash'jir at 143/150 as horde. So it definitely isn't possible going along with the quests as they send you from hub to hub. I think the missing ones are probably tied to Earthen Ring rep, which isn't being awarded properly from quests in vash'jir.

It is looking increasingly likely that there aren't enough quests for the Deepholm achievement either. I'm thinking whoever wrote the achievement requirements just threw darts at a board. Zones like Hyjal have almost 10 quests over the achievement threshold. Either that or they're saving up these 14-20 missing quests for a future daily hub. There's a big unused section of the Abyssal Depths map where there's nothing but herbs now.

Random complaint: wrong wow thread

[Correction]

Random complaint: too many threads in the wow forum that start with the word "Random"

WoW complaint: I was right, Deepholm quests fall short, only 117/125 towards the achievement and I did absolutely everything, even the dailies.

[aurik]

How the fuck did they let that slip through QA. Really.


Also, my random complaint is that playing a healer this expansion is looking to be a very frustrating exercise. How predictable.

[Arvin]

I guarantee there will be so much complaining about heroics here, and I'll start with it.

Full guild group of shaman, rogue, lock, mage, warrior

did heroic SFK, 0 cc

took 2 hours, and some of those bosses are fucking insane and im pretty sure this is unpuggable for a long time.

Did you do Commander Springvale? I seriously can't heal it, most other heroics aren't too bad, but seriously.

You chose not to use cc? Not sure why this is notable, since only the trash in the courtyard is really dangerous.

And yes the heroic SFK bosses are about as hard as heroic bosses get in this expansion. I predict few groups will get past Ashbury without giving it up completely.

[aurik]

They might as well disable random-group heroic dungeons for now, people are just going to get frustrated. Allow random heroic queue only with a full party.

Is your tank staying in place for the Shield attack? That might be the issue, although that DOT isn't very nice either, seems like a real dps race.
