If this happened to you, and you felt disoriented and lost join the boat of frustration of everyone who experienced it. Blizzard acknowledged to have identified various bugs in the Midsummer Festival achievements. Some quests you completed last year didn’t properly reset and you have no access to those quests this year, which will result in the loss of Blossom rewards. Blizzard is actively investigating these bugs, and hopefully we might have some hotfixes before the world event ends this July 5th. Fasten your seat belts, and be patient in the meantime. If you completed the Lord Ahune quest and achievement last year—you probably won’t find the quest in Orgrimmar and Stormwind this year. However, you can go straight to Slave Pens. The second NPC near where Lord Ahune is summoned has a quest to summon him, which is still good.—source

| Greetings!
While the Midsummer Fire Festival event has begun, we wanted to take some time to explain that there are some currently known issues with the Festival, and to let the community know that we are working on resolving them. The first issue, and what seems to be the most prevalent reported issue, is regarding gaining Fire Blossoms from fire quests that were completed last year. This affects the Honor the Fires and Desecrate the Fires quests, as they appear to have not reset from last year. We understand the concerns many players have about being able to obtain enough blossoms for this year to buy what they wish, and we are actively working on the issue. Second, there have been many reports that the quest “Unusual Activity” has not reset from last year. This is being investigated by development. In addition, we have had many players report that Crown of the Fire Festival from last year is not granting achievement credit for King of the Fire Festival. This appears to be a result of the quest not having been completed while the achievement system was live (as last Midsummer was before the achievement system was implemented). If it were to grant retroactive achievement for King of the Fire Festival, it would have been granted upon launch of the achievement system. While we do apologize for any frustration, we want to actively assure the community that we are working on resolving these issues, and any others that may appear. We will update this post with information as we get it. |
