quest problem (bug?)

[hellion]

i don't really go to the blizz forums and haven't heard anything about this, but it is getting extremely annoying.

the problem is that when your group is on a quest and killing a quest mob, if one of your group members dies, they do not get any xp from the mob and are not able to loot it even though they died giving their fair share of help towards killing it.

i can see no purpose towards game balance or anything for this, and was wondering if blizzard had already taken a stand for or against this problem in beta.

is it planned to be fixed in a future patch so that all member of a group get rewarded even if someone dies?

thanks

No clue, that's a Blizz thing, be sure to /bug it in game.

Not to hijack this thread, but it seemed an appropriate place to put it.

Deviate hides quest, does the person you give them to (Nimpak) not exist? I go to where he is supposed to be (WC) and his dot shows up on teh mini-map, but he isnt there, isn't above or, as far as I can tell, below.

The mini-map places him just inside the entrance to WC. anyone know?

He's in the Right eyeball of the Skull.
You have to climb around and up the side of the mountain and then walk on top of the skull till u get to the face and drop down on the nose and move to the RT eyeball. He's inside.

Also if you have completed a quest and when you return to the Quest giver, if he doesn't have a Yellow Question Mark above his head, what you need to do is relog and it will show up. There is a bug that sometimes causes it to not appear.

Your complaint about the person dying not receiving credit has been around since mid-beta and was brought up numerous times in many suggestion threads in testing phases. I was under the assumption it had been fixed but evidently has not or they do not intend to fix it.

I don't know if they disabled the ingame /suggestion and /bug commands, but I'm guessing they probably did now that beta is over. I would search for a suggestion method on this, even if it means going to the dreaded forums and bringing it up once again.

/bug is still in the game

I used it the other night. There just isn't a button you press on the interface anymore.

AFAIK if the person doesn't release their spirit they still get credit for the kill and are able to loot. I've done it several times (provided there's someone to res me.)

The problem occurs when they release their spirit and go back to the graveyard, because then they are considered too far away from the group to get credit for the kill.

But that doesnt work everytime !

situation:

killing the fozruk giant in arathi with our group of 4. shaman gets aggro and dies. rest of us kite and nuke until he is almost dead. we wait for shaman to run back to corpse and respawn then kill fozruk. shaman still gets zero credit.

i cannot honestly believe that blizzard would intentionally do this.
