Blizzard need to get their act together because this is ridiculous.
The fight its self causes some of the worst lagg I've ever seen from any games, with almost the entire raid dying from mechanics that cant be seen or avoided. It takes approximately 10 seconds delay for some abilities to hit the boss, while half of the rotation isnt even registered. In the end, corpse running and hoping for the best eventually wins it.
I only do this quest on alts for the gold, but noticed multiple times I wasnt being awarded it so I thought I'd stop, record it and take a look.
The Main Event quest its self is definitely bugged, with the stated rewards randomly changing every couple of minutes. I took all of my screenshots in a single 10 minute period, just stood still on the same character without reloading or relogging.
- 45 or 91 or 86 Valorstones
- 10 Carved Undermine Crests.
- sometimes, 25 Coffer Key Shards
- sometimes, 100 Cartels Reputation
- sometimes, 979g or 947g or 1008gActual reward I received for completing the quest:
60 Valorstones, 10 Carved Crests, 100 Rep. No gold, and no key shards. I double checked with before and after screenshots of my characters gold and keyshards.Oh, and I had to leave the arena area and come back like the other comments suggested for the quest completion to even register.

If you did all you needed to do for the world quest and it doesn't immediately give you the reward (like all world quests are supposed to do), leave the arena area by driving up the ramp until you zone into Tailgate Park and then return to the questing area, wait a minute for the boss to respawn, and you should get your rewards. I don't know if it matters or not, but zone into the quest naturally, don't click the world quest icon on your map. Annoying and silly that this bug exists.
world quests rewards bug - for MONTHS now rewards shown on the game map have not been accurate, changing from one zone to the next, with no addons enabled and even with a 100% clean game install to prove it is not client side or addons. This is a 100% game side bug left uncorrected.
my choice of world quests to be done is based on rewards, usually high gold amounts, and this one since the start of season 1 war within has robbed me of 100,000+ gold which hampers my in-game purchasing ability.....this is my report to bliz bugs, and i am certain that it will be given all the respect due by those who read it... aka no action.
