Death Knight Glitches = Experience RUINED!

#0 - Dec. 22, 2008, 3:52 a.m.

I cannot begin to describe how angry I was at the end of the Death Knight quests. I just used my ten day WotLK trial, and made my first Death Knight. I had to abandon several quests because of glitches. During one quest, a blood elf put up an anti magic field, however at the time I didn't know that I was supposed to stay inside of it, so I died and came back as a Ghoul, killing the guy whose head I needed. When I was resurrected, I was unable to loot him and the Blood Elf just stood there with the Anti-Magic field for about ten minutes, even after I abandoned the quest.

However, the thing that angered me the most was when I was traveling to Light's Hope Chapel. All of a sudden, Highlord Mograine, this man who had been ordering me to kill people, was GOOD. I'm just sitting there, thinking to myself, what the HELL? How are we GOOD now? So I turn in the quest and he gives me my spell to make a Death Gate, and I get back to Ebon Hold and the Light King is gone, and Ebon Hold is being taken over by the guys who seemingly just turned good at the blink of an eye.

Later, I find out that there's an entire part of the quest that didn't even WORK for me. I missed this most 'Epic' part of the quest because you guys were so eager to get another expansion out that you didn't even make sure that it was glitch free.

I'll be DAMNED if I'm going to delete my Death Knight just so that I can see that part of the quest. Actually, I just might just let her rot now. I don't think that I can bear to even get on her because I don't know the goddamned lore behind HOW SHE TURNED GOOD.

THANK YOU, BLIZZARD.

Actually I've done that quest line three times now, yes three. I'm sick I know. :P The entire starting area quests for Death Knights, never had an issue.

You might want to start resetting your User Interface if you are experiencing issues while questing.

1) *IMPORTANT* Exit the World of Warcraft to your desktop by logging out of the game and exiting. If World of Warcraft isn't closed, then these steps won't have the desired effect.
2) If you used an "installer" for a custom UI, see if it has an "uninstaller" and use it.
3) Inside the World of Warcraft Program Folder, delete the "WTF," "Cache," and "Interface" folders.
4) Restart your computer.
5) Please do not reinstall Addons prior to testing the issue you were experiencing.
6) Make sure that you are using WOW.EXE or LAUNCHER.EXE to start the game. Please do not run any UI installers beforehand, as we want to eliminate them as part of the issue.
7) Upon launching the game, you should see the Intro cinematic movie and be prompted to agree to the Terms of Use. Once you authenticate past the login screen, the “AddOns” button should no longer be visible at the lower left corner of the character selection screen. Both points mentioned previously must hold true if you should complete the aforementioned steps correctly.

You also, don't need to stay within the anti-magic field, as with any fight you should use what you have available to you and the advice of other players helps. :)

It would be a good idea to also pay attention to the story line, nothing happened in the blink of an eye and the entire line is awesome.

Q u o t e:
I enjoyed the DK quest line I also did it three times.

The only thing I was so totally pissed off about was the gnome DK ... I very deliberately stole a pony for the DK mount quest and for a few minutes I was ecstatic having a gnome sized mount to ride on. Then I was shattered by the imposition of a full sized mount when I handed in the pony !!!

grrr !

Have you ever seen a Tauren steal the pony? Hilarity.

I do believe we are done here.
