In World of Warcraft Classic, many players are currently feeling frustrated. They are still waiting for Ahn’Qiraj – as it simply does not want to open.
In World of Warcraft Classic, there are again quite a few issues. Players on the large, busy realms hardly notice anything. However, the “smaller” realms are experiencing significant difficulties as a promised feature is simply not working. That is why many servers still cannot participate in the fun in Ahn’Qiraj.
What is the problem? In the current raid Ahn’Qiraj of World of Warcraft, players can only access it if the gates of Ahn’Qiraj have already been opened on their realm. This not only requires the completion of a very long quest line that makes a player the Scarab Lord, but also a massive gathering effort from the entire realm. Both factions need to farm and submit hundreds of thousands of resources for the Horde and Alliance troops to set out.
In fact, there is an “Auto-Complete” feature here. It is supposed to ensure that WoW collects resources “on its own” after some time, thus inevitably advancing the event’s progress. However, this is still not the case even after more than 40 days. The tally on many realms has hardly changed.
That is why it is frustrating: Already in the event’s announcement, Blizzard stated that the game would “automatically” collect resources after a while, allowing the completion of the large gathering quest to happen on its own. Apparently, many players on the slightly quieter realms relied on this and are now left disappointed.
The concern of many players is: Ahn’Qiraj will not open for weeks or months because the automatic collection is missing. On full realms, players completed it already on day one. The fear is that Ahn’Qiraj on these realms will only open very late or might not open at all – perhaps even only after the next major patch that will bring Naxxramas. In that case, thousands of players would miss an entire raid tier, resulting in a significant part of the Classic experience being lost.
There has been no response from Blizzard on this issue so far. However, since the problem is currently flaring up almost daily in the WoW Classic subreddit, it is only a matter of time before a corresponding fix is implemented.
Is your realm also affected by the issue? Or are you playing on one of the full realms that completed the event already on day one?
