Daily_Yes just seems to mean that the trigger is available, not completed. That's how it was for me at least- with the sheeps as Yes and the daily as Yes, with both _exploded ones as No. Relogging still works, got it 5 mins ago. The Stormheim sheep seems to be a random spawn in runewood somewhere

Relogging still works as of 01:30am CET 02/10.

I've been searching around the Runewood/Haustvald/Greywatch/Valdisdall area for about 4 hours and I've yet to find the volatile stormheim sheep.

Some people have said that it can't be targeted by a macro, while others suggest making a macro to locate it - can anyone confirm this?

EDIT: Logged on this morning and found the sheep here within about 5 minutes! (66.60, 54.09), can also confirm that it can be targeted by a macro

I've watched YouTube videos of it being targeted, so yes it can be.

Just ported to class Hall for cote dialogue, it didnt show up but i did get the daily roll completed, what now? No sheep spawned or cote dialogue, just a successful roll.
Go on and search for the sheep in stormheim or is the daily roll irrelevant without the dialogue?

Ok even weirder now. Another mage (not in party with me) was doing the relogging like me, he got the quest, and when i relogged, i got the dialogue from the sheep, the one that follows the cote dialogue and clicking the sheep.

Interesting, try running the script below to see if the order hall sheep quest comes out as true;

Code: Select all

/run for k, v in pairs({ST_Exploded=43800,Hall_Exploded=43799,Hall_Daily=43828,SU=43791,ST=43789,HI=43788,VA=43790,AZ=43787}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cff00ff00Yes\124r" or "\124cffff0000No\124r")) end

Says Hall exploded: No, ST exploded: No
I also checked with that other mage, he was standing on his sheep in stormheim, he was other faction and pointed at it -> it shows "xx is pointing at unknown"

Back to blinking for the dialogue it is :p

Update: Kept on blinking, got the dialogue eventually and exploded the sheep, then like expected hall_exploded set to yes.

Found the sheep 79, 67

Be careful not to click on the portal when Cote gives you the emote and the volatile sheep eventually spawns. It would be a great disappointment to leave the class hall by mistake.

To get the sheep to spawn for me in the class hall, it took about 2100 relogs in just under seven hours. During this time the first dialog boss was only of a sheep, and that was for another player. When it was my sheep that popped up, the dialog box was of the male human metacalf before the sheep diolog box.

I just got Cote to emote in my class hall, the sheep spawned, I clicked it for 3mins straight, no explosion it just despawned... I ran the script and it comes back as the class hall sheep exploded: No.

So am I screwed here?
Has this happened to anyone else?

I opened a ticket, but I already know what they are going to tell me "GLHF keep trying"

Just got Hall_Exploded -- Confirming log out method is working as of 11:00 PM (EST) on October 2nd.

Took me abit over 2 hours of: Log in, Blink past the doorway towards the portal, Displace back, Log out.

Created a macro with /logout so I didn't even have to use my mouse. just hit blink hotkey, displace hotkey, logout hotkey, and enter key to re-select my character at the login screen. made it really smooth and I barely had to pay attention doing it.

Also confirming that you have to RIGHT CLICK the sheep many times, not left click like I assumed earlier.

Now to find the Stormheim sheep...

Is the reloging system already hotfixed?
Or is it still possible from the moment i post this?

Cheers

*Edit* been doing the blinking for hours in between work and no luck so far

Do you need to be arcane spec for all the steps in the process to get these emotes and daily rolls?

I got an emote in my class hall from the Extremely Volatile Stormheim Sheep saying "...", but not from Metcalf, and there's no sheep. Does that mean I succeeded, or is it just a red herring?

More than likely bugged. I had the same thing happen, but the dialogue was from another mage who received the sheep. You can test if you have credit for exploding the class hall sheep by doing this:

12:47pm PST edit:

Seems like the ability to relog for the roll might have finally been hotfixed as of ~10 minutes ago. Hidden quest is reporting yes now for me permanently, and another mage friend has confirmed it's happening to him as well. Neither of us ever received the emote. Anyone else confirm?

If they have, I'm hoping the chance for it to proc yes has been greatly increased. I had over 1,000 relogs which would be 3+ years of daily rolls. :cry:

Same here, it's now showing Yes even after relogging. Goodbye all hope of getting it any time soon :|

Same here
If that claim is true the design is plainly broken. I would report it as a suggestion or even as a bug report if you stretch it. I say "if that claim is true" because I wonder if there are other ways to reset it.
