No Credit for Killing War Chief Zathmoz?

    Just a heads up we should have this fixed in Monday's PC incremental patch.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Will this also fix his respawn rate? Killed him an hour ago and did not get credit for daily quest, been waiting for him to respawn with about 10 other people here and it has been nearly an hour and he's a no show. Really sucks when people are using XP scrolls or drinks and they run out while waiting for him to respawn.

    Yes, we're fixing both the lack of kill credit and issues with him respawning.

    Leave the dead to be dead. Stop respowning it. He has had enough suffering in his life.
    Rest in Piece. He desrves some!

    No what he deserves as a warchief is to actually be summoned and fight in battle (which he's obviously unable to do currently). ^^

    Problem is on the PS4 as well, in case it was thought to be PC only.

    I’ve noticed you can’t be near his tent when waiting for the spawn.

    I've killed him twice today, once within a 5 foot radius of his tent, and no credit, so I don't think the tent proximity theory is correct.

    When will this be fixed on consoles?

    Killed him 4 (four) times today. Four. No credit.
    Tried reloading ui. Nothing.
    Logging in to another instance. Nope.

    It’s a daily. If you can’t do it, you can’t abandon & get another one. If I have to wait until possible fix in console patch on Wed thats 4 days I’m missing out on wb daily rewards.

    Not good enough. Do better.

    Got credit at the 3rd time on PS4 EU. It seems it's pretty random atm.

    When I got credit he died +- at the centre of the area.

    It’s bl**dy annoying. I have limited time to play & this is beyond ridiculous. At least would be bearable if could abandon and get another daily, but no 😡

    Still not getting credit properly, eventually got the credit but not as intended, I think.
    I killed the boss but received no credit immediately.
    I was waiting for the boss to respawn and when the body disappeared did I get the credit only.

    I've had the problem recur on PC since the PC incremental patch, so I'm not sure that it actually *is* fixed here at all

    You all can probably look forward to seeing this same thread (and having be applicable) 5 years from now!

    That is the trend they have set.

    Erm… Been waiting forever with about 10 other players and this dude refuses to respawn. Still bugged on PS4 EU, I’m afraid.@ZOS_GinaBruno

    The two or three times I have done this daily WB quest, I have gotten credit each time for the quest when Zathmoz dies. Probably just RNG, but I am getting the quest credit for the Blackwood WB dailies consistently. The drop rate for motif seems low to me, however.

    Since the last update on PS4 I am able to get completion for the boss and the respawn times seem reasonable. Getting enough players to kill him has been the problem.

    The war chief seems to be invulnerable a lot of the time so going after the other bosses (the Orc dogs? the name escapes me now) seems to be the best option first.

    Don't attack the dogs. Use the bait barrels to distract the dogs and just focus on the boss.
