Hi.

@ZOS_BillE

As the title says, this WB is bugged. I've killed three times and it didn't count for me and others mates around, the same.

    See, this is the sort of stuff that should be littering the PTS forums so that the game is more polished at release. Instead, children would rather use PTS time to whine about how they didn't one-shot some other kid in Cyrodiil and that their class needs more power because of it...

    Hi all, we've confirmed this as a bug. If your character dies while fighting this World Boss, you will not get credit for the achievement. This will be fixed in an upcoming incremental patch. Thank you for the report!

    With all due respect, I did NOT die and still didn't get credit for achievement or quest...

    (and yes, I did get loot so I was within range and did some damage :p )

    Hmm, @Ufretin could you give it another try when you get a chance? If your character isn't dying during the fight and you still aren't getting the achievement, we may want to take a look at your account.

    This boss is bugged independently if you die or not. I had a lucky strike cause I killed all the rest of World Bosses I left alive and then I went to kill this bugged boss. It worked for me. The game granted me the achievement and the icon became white.

    For a long, long time, you could fail to get credit for the base-game WBs if you killed them outside of a certain radius from their origin point. On several of them, this radius was extremely small. Is it possible this issue has resurfaced?

    Can confirm that it doesn't have to do with dying. I came in halfway through the first time I went in and it didn't work. I assumed I didn't get it because I had come in late, so I waited for it to respawn and soloed the boss. I didn't die (because I was solo it would have reset if I had). I didn't get the achievement

    I just killed it without even getting closed to die, my friend also killed it twice without dying. We didn't get the achievement. It also doesn't count for the world boss daily quest. @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

    It is not just the World Boss achievement, the daily quest - A Waking Nightmare - is not registering the kill, either. I have killed him three times without dying the quest did not recognize the kill any of those three times and killing him is still listed as an active objective. This world boss is majorly bugged.

    ETA" If you kill all five of the other world bosses and then kill this one, then the achievement, the map icon and the daily quest will complete for you.I made sure not to die during the battle, if it makes a difference.

    It still doesn't work, I killed all five of the other wold bosses and the achievement will not take, in spite of never dying

    Killed him three times now without dying. No achievement, quest didn't update, map icon still black :(

    Same here. Killed it three times, without dying. 1st time I didn’t get any loot but put that down to joining the fight very late. Then later, while on the WB daily quest to kill this guy, me and another player killed him twice again - both times getting loot off the corpse - but no achievements, icon remains black in the map and unable to hand in the daily quest.

    Yep, I killed it twice without dying and no achievement or daily complete.

    Edit: I killed the other 5 bosses first and then went and tried it and it worked for the daily, cleared, and got the achievement. Interesting method, but it worked.

    Killed her twice, no deaths, no success. First time thought it might be because I didnt place the urns 1st (no reason why, just scattershotting a possible solution), but nope.

    I did die previously, once, in a dragon fight - could that be an effect that lingers?

    Hope this helps.

    You also would not get credit for killing the world boss if you killed it before "discovering" the world boss, e.g. if someone else had pulled the boss away from its normal location and you came into the fight late.

    Same for me. Took the quest and it didn't count. Tried twice

    Dropped the quest. Tried another five times. No achievement.

    No deaths, got loot every time, not getting the achievement. Sometimes adds were alive, sometimes they were not.

    I know some people got the achievement at some point, but still, not a pleasant surprise.

    PC EU btw.

    Edit: Made it another seven, not five.

    The terror bird world boss is bugged as well, but the bug is that he'll disappear and spawn next to a wall at full health again at some point during the fight. I think Keelsplitter in Summerset might have had a similar bug.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom is there any update on this bug please? It’s preventing us from completing the daily quest and from getting the achievement/completion for this WB.

    Not good for us completionists 😅
