So every alt get insta completed quest after fishing 1 fish now. Is this intended or a bug? Im afraid to do this quest now
They fixed the bug, just did it once more on a 7th toon and i had to fish all 3, this morning i did the quest with 6 toons, only the first had to fish all 3, on the other 5 toons the fishing derby quest got insta finished on first cast, well i dont like the change now 30 to 10 marks.
I'm not getting the buff on alts, and not getting completion
Another huge nerf. I guess if you have an alt army and unlimited time you are still fine but if you only have one toon with high fishing it was a huge nerf.
also the soaked journal entries stack now.. they used to not lol
so wow devs who only play one class got their items so they can *!@ over the others. lmao why this ALWAYS happens? god lord
It still seems to be bugged. My first character was able to do it normally but all of my alts are completing the quest instantly upon successfully fishing up something. Edit: Just did it on a 71 and it started working normally. Afterwards I did it on a 72 and it was bugged. Then on a 70 after that which resulted in another attempt that worked. Going off of this + what I'm seeing in the comments, I'm led to believe that repeat attempts on characters 71 and below will work as intended and can acquire 30 marks by completing the quest + catching 1 of each unique fish, whereas characters above 71 will auto complete upon catching any type of fish and can only earn 10 marks.2nd Edit: Just got the bugged version on a 71 so I don't even know anymore.
People who call it a buff clearly do not understand that threads do not matter, but the items for 500 and 250 marks do. 500 marks means 50 weeks, a whole year.People who have more than 1 playable character cannot be a majority to justify those changes.
W CHANGE
Man love on Blizz just screws everyone that doesn't play a dozen alts.
dont like this, dont wanna be forced into playing alts. Do it like the "Big Dig" event, an accountwide weekly big reward and then some extra stuff for people who go extra miles on alts, why not
Not interested in playing alts like this. Especially not put so much of my saturday on this event.In the end, all the QoL just widened the gap between people that exploit stuff and/or use alt armies for everything (from multiboxing/bot farming to everything else).25 + 3 per extra character would be fine, but, they had to do this.
I'm all for alt friendliness, but not at the expense of people with fewer/no alts.Leave the quest alone and give alts a different quest for fewer marks. Alts will still speed up the process of getting the derby rewards in a way Blizzard can adjust as needed through the second quest and people with one or two characters aren't punished for no good reason.
To be fair, its one of the worst quests in the game. It takes usually 40 min to finish and your reward is a few marks for some recipes and transmog. Outside of the mount achievement, I would skip this as its a giant waste of time unless you love fishing.
Bad change for a badly thought out quest with a bad schedule.Expecting people to do this on alts is stupid.
Also, it now seems to start and end on the calendar Saturday, instead on day reset time as before (I remember doing it on a morning before Sunday reset before).
