Kommentar von Uglius

This horde version is totally bugged atm. can't even be completed.
(tryed 3 times)

Kommentar von Sepelrastas

Abandon and redo worked for me.

The second time around, some parts looked different compared to the first time, like it wouldn't have been correctly working the first time around.

Any of you had similar experiences?

Kommentar von 343290

I just completed this one, receiving the blue quest reward, but didn't get the related achievement.

Also, some parts of the "cinematic" seem to have some problems with the camera remaining still and not following the action properly (but this could be just my impression).

Kommentar von 704303

I couldn't complete it on nov 13th, when all npcs enter the vortex the event stops, and nothing happens :(

Kommentar von 439408

I was forced to alt-f4 and come back in for this to work. I did notice another horde player trying to do the quest as I started it.....perhaps that's the issue?

Kommentar von Rhabdos

I had the same bug, but after reading some posts, i exited game where i was and re-logged. I was not on the seahorse mount. After about 1 minute or so, it seemed the cinematic basically started from the point the NPC's were about to kill Neptulon. Everything worked fine from there. Npc dialogue that hadn't happenned the first time took place and all was well. Collected loot and achievement.

Kommentar von 20179

I just spent about an hour on the boat, nothing happened.

Then WoW crashed.

When I relogged, the next part of the event was in progress, and I was in it. When the cinematic ended, all the others on the boat was there too, and their WoWs had also crashed.

Riiiiiight..

Kommentar von aetius

I was completely unable to to do this quest.

Every combination of re-logging and abandoning and re-picking up the quest failed to fix it.

Every time I accepted the quest and then started it, the cut-scene would play, the sub would load, then all the NPC's would disappear and I got a breath bar. Nothing I could do would bring them back.

Edit: Going back the next day after a server restart resulted in a successful completion of the quest.

Kommentar von 254148

First time, aggroed an honor guard, no cutscene, no credit.

Second time, got the cutscene, the turn-in guy never spawned, and then the event started up again and I got "World Server is Down" as soon as the cutscene for the 2nd event was about to begin.

This is getting frustrating...

Kommentar von Dylon

If you are haveing trouble then do this. Do not go ahead of the rest of the group and do not attack anyone at the last part when Naz'jar comes. Then you should go into a little clip of her and neptulon fighting

Kommentar von 609642

After I abandoned the quest I went back to get it again and Erunak disappered he hasnt come back yet has this happend to anyone else?

Edit: After I went to org I took the portal back to Vash and he was there, did the quest no bugs worked fine.

Kommentar von 721860

Still not working, tried relogging, abandoning, hearthing. I think it might be related to the amount of people on the server.

Kommentar von ziggykid

Does anyone know where to get quests after this one? i still need 8 more for the 150 quest achievement

Kommentar von immortals

i also found many ppl inside waiting to "die" or for mage to get ported out

guys you only need to abandon quest and you get ported out. dont need hs/mage

i hope this helps to anyone ;)

Kommentar von 708244

with me, i just can't hand in the quest. Done it a gazillion times, only for every time it to go completely alright EXCEPT that I can't hand in the quest.

Stupid grey question mark mocks me, I'm telling you.

Kommentar von madisynblack

When you pick up the quest, be sure to remember to speak to Erunak Stonespeaker to begin the quest! It leads you to a cinematic!

Kommentar von PyroCard

I was having the same issue that everyone one else was having with this quest. After I got bored waiting for the npc to spawn I swam over to the crashed sub to check it out before I went on to do other things, as I was swimming into it, it disappeared and the npc had appeared where he was supposed to be. This may have been a fluke, but its worth a shot .

Kommentar von Neuf

The first time I did it the NPCs in the sub loaded slow. So I missed half the RP.
I sat to drink at one point and when the NPCs got frozen, I was not.
And at the end the quest wasn't completed. I had to abandon and start again.

The 2nd time everything seemed to be working until the end. I had to stare at a shaman for abotu 2 minutes before the quest would complete. But now the NPC to do the turn in is missing!

I'm sitting here waiting a 3rd time for someone else to finish and hopefully I can turn it in....
Nope still bugged. Did a relog and the NPC is back in the correct spot to turn in though.

Kommentar von 527591

I did this today, 12/8/10, at 11:00AM no problems.

My advice? Just sit there, do nothing, maybe go get some coffee, and you'll complete it.

Kommentar von Larisse

Everything went fine for me, i did check the comments before starting the quest tho, so i also did not attack the last wave (it kinda does make sense that if you're in combat or have aggro at least that the cinematic start might leave your body unattended leading to your death, but blizz really needs a workaround that).
So everything fine, quest completed BUT no mob to turn the quest in, reloging did fix this for me tho.

Kommentar von unclejessie77

Abandoning the quest returns you to Tenebrous Cavern so you can try it again.

Kommentar von 134914

I have attempted this quest 9 times so far. What has been useful:

-You can restart the quest by abandoning it (this will teleport you off the boat).
-If you have an air bubble meter, the quest is probably bugged.
-If there are no NPCs (or the NPCs despawn in the middle of talking), the quest is probably bugged.

What I can't figure out:
-How do I keep the NPCs from despawning? I've relogged several times and nothing seems to work.

Kommentar von 498472

WHAT TO DO AFTER THIS QUESTLINE IS DONE?

Travel back to Orgrimmar, go to around 48,76 (to the questboard) and take another questline.

Kommentar von Naossoan

I did this quest just fine. I did attack stuff because they were attacking me...the elite naga guys, but the quest still worked and I completed it just fine.

Kommentar von lightclaw

I don't think you need to relog to fix this. I swam up to the Tenebrous Cave and back to see whether he'd returned and when I got back to the Abyss he was in his correct spot. I don't know for certain whether he just took a long time to spawn or if it was a phasing issue, where I needed to leave the phase and return to be in the right one. (Thinking of all those idiotic quests that make you leave a phase then immediately return to see a new questgiver.)

This quest is also a requirement to open up the quests in the Throne of the Tides 5 man instance.

Kommentar von Cappa

wed, dec 08, 4 pm est quest still bugged
scenario shows you only deep water, and sound is constant submarine beeping.
loading inside the sub pops up a breath meter. After couple of seconds it vanishes and npcs appear. 3 - 5 seconds later or 2 lines into the npcs conversations npcs fade out , the breath meter pops up again and u die by drowning.

after canceling the quest and retaking for over an hour its (5:18 est now)
quest remains bugged and wont go anywhere.
reloading, hearting and canceling/retaking quest. logging off complitely exiting out client doesn't do anything but sends u to your heart home or back into the cave.
I figured i will cheat and use water breathing lock buff thinking maybe it wont pop the breath meter and if that was the problem it might work (locks made out like bandits) sadly for me and my gold purse that didn't work either.
but i did notice a difference, when the npcs vanish i get phased in with other players which weren't there before. Which get me to the conclusion that it isn't the breath meter that's causing it but the whole phasing crap they implemented.
so what gives? any ideas ?

Kommentar von 214461

as of 512 central us time, quest still bugged. tried varied combinations of relog, and abandon, cinematic goes NPC's appear, then slowly disapper, I do not move, I dont touch keyboard, 5 times in row now. Hmmmmmm, wonder why it works for some and not others.

Kommentar von andrewdok

Confirmed that it is bugged, did it three times.. realized the bug occurs if you enter combat when the honor guards spawn by attacking them.. this will stop you from getting the cinematic that occurs about 5 seconds afterwards.

Did the quest three times, first two times I attacked them... no cinematic, no question completion.
The third time I did not attack, entered cinematic & received question completion once it finished.

Kommentar von 369012

Just talk to Erunak... and he will start it for you.

People saying go grab a coffee and such should get their post deleted in my opinion.
Make us waste time for no reason.

I did get dced while being dropped into the boat, had to alt F4 because I was stuck on loading. But after that it went alright. There is some downtime while you are in the submarine, totally wondering what should I do...but then the cinematic restarts.

Then you wake up dead in the middle of the fight, just watch Erunak own them all.

3 waves of nagas spawn, then a last cinematic where you see Tidehunter Neptulon.

Kommentar von 450456

I don't know how this may work for Alliance, but here's my Horde side of how it went. A few spoilers, but feel free to read if you got stuck on this like I did.

Attempt #1. When the first cinematic happened, the submarine vanished. When I loaded in the sub, I saw a breathmeter for a few seconds before it vanished, but nothing out of the ordinary otherwise. There were elite Naga that attacked, I engaged them, and they were all killed by the Shaman. The events proceeded as normal until the end, where I attacked the Honor Guard and the last cinematic didn't happen. Quest NPC was there, but I couldn't complete it.

Attempt #2. I was the only player this time. The sub loaded normally the first time; it was even there in the first cinematic. There was no breath meter. Having not read WoWHead, I attacked the Honor Guard a second time and did not get the last cinematic. I also attacked the previous elite naga until they were killed. After the last event that was supposed to trigger the cinematic, Nazgrim, the orc leader, remained on the ledge with a grunt, who was still engaged in combat with a naga Honor Guard. The orc did not approach the shaman. I did not get credit for the quest, and all of them despawned after a little while. There was no NPC to turn the quest in to.

Attempt #3. There were more players this time. The sub loaded correctly as in Attempt #2; no breath meter at all as well. Things proceded the same. When the sub crashed and left us lying on the seafloor, it was the orc who told us to get up as the naga attacked, rather than the Shaman beforehand which is normally followed by Nazgrim after we had enough time to get up. By this point I had read this comments page and saw that attacking the Honor Guards is bad. I also avoided attacking any of the previous Naga, although they attacked me. So I warned the other players present to not attack them. When the time came, they ignored my advice. I did not attack them, but they did. The cinematic loaded for me for the first time. I got quest credit, but at the end of the cinematic I was left staring at the Shaman, who was doing nothing. The cinematic stopped, left us all near the shaman, and for some reason dead corpses of ourselves were on the ground near us. The same thing happened as before - Nazgrim stayed on the ledge while a grunt continued to battle a naga. Soon after, they all despawned.

Attempt #4. See Attempt #3, the one difference being that the sub loaded incorrectly and I had a brief breath meter before it went away.

Attempt #5. This one worked! The sub vanished in the first cinematic, like Attempts 1 and 4, and I did have a brief breath meter before it went away like before. When the sub crashed, Nazgrim woke us instead of the Shaman. The Shaman only got us up on the first two tries I did. Things proceded as normal. I really stressed to the group that they shouldn't attack the Honor Guards. The time came, and nearly everyone stood their ground and did not attack, with one exception. A troll shaman shot a fireball at one of the honor guards right before the cinematic. The cinematic still loaded as it should. At the end, Nazgrim approached the Shaman and they had a brief dialogue. When that was done, I got credit for the quest and was able to turn it in. Everyone else got credit too, judging by their achievement dings. Right after that, he went swimming into the whirlpool.

My hypothesis: When you reach the part with the Honor Guards, it is important to not attack them. When you fight an Honor Guard, they have a small health pool. They can be brought to 1 HP, but will not die. The shaman in my last attempt attacked them without any bugs occurring, so it may only be an issue when they hit 1 HP. However the bug is triggered in that circumstance, it causes a grunt to remain engaged in combat. As long as that grunt is in combat, Nazgrim will not leave the ledge and talk to the Shaman. In the last attempt, the sub despawned in cinematic #1, there was a breath meter, I fought the earlier naga, and the Shaman did not say his line to wake us up. By that, I assume that those are not indicitive of a bugged quest, nor is the quest guaranteed to work if those things happen normally.

Others report bugs regarding an empty sub when they begin the quest. This has not happened to me in the 5 attempts I had, so I cannot guess about what that means.

So, to put all of this simply: DO. NOT. ATTACK. THE. HONOR. GUARDS. (The elite naga are fair game though) And make sure you stress that to everyone with you.

Kommentar von bernlin2000

Only problem i had was with turning the quest in: the NPC simply wasnt there (even though the question mark was on the screen). Then, he appeared a minute later, but still couldnt turn-in. So I relogged and then it was successful. My advice: dont kill something unless it attacks you (like other have said). I had no problems until the end.

Kommentar von Fraeco

Myself and another player had the bug as well. After the naga enter the vortex the camera is stuck on the shaman and nothing happens.

We went back to the cave, started the event again and did not attack any of the mobs that spawn and it worked fine then. So I think this is key.

This was Horde side on Dragonblight.

Kommentar von Reaper9998

Phasing bug hotfixed as of 12/9/10

Kommentar von 138235

still bugged on Stonemaul as of 10:15 server time on 12/9/10

Kommentar von 251839

seems the trick is to do some damage in the beginning, and when the honor guards come - do not attack them and dismount (in case you're mounted)

Kommentar von 9945_

Hotfix my ass. It's still bugged.

Kommentar von 615136

Still bugged... I tought long betas were for things exactly liek this... all the npcs despawn as soon as I go there.

Kommentar von 724947

Ok Ive done the abandon and retry and the log an retry. Neither works. Now SOMETIMES (since I have tried this a few times now) the crew appears in the sub, but then fade away. Sometimes another player is in there with me. This is the second time something strange has happened while playing Cataclysm.
I get the first part of the cinematic, the one where the sub comes out of the cave, but thats it.
Just closed out the whole thing now, an will attempt again.

Kommentar von PsychoBilli

I went through this quest, and it bugged toward the end. I didn't see the cinematic where Erunak is pulled into the vortex. So I went back to Tenebrous Cavern and started the event again.

After my second trip through the sub, I made it a point not to attack anything and I was greeted with all the cinematics and the quest completed normally. However, someone else pulled a Naga along and the quest giver was stuck attacking it. Unfortunately, those Naga stop taking damage at 1 hp, so he never allowed me to turn in the quest.

I just sat there, poking through Wowhead to look for advice, when the event played through again. Eventually, Legionaire Nazgrim spawned and allowed me to complete the quest.

Clearly the quest is very buggy atm, but determination and patience will pay off.

Kommentar von 670769

I've been trying to start this quest for about a half hour. First few times I got in fine, but the NPCs were despawned. I exited the game and found I hadn't downloaded a patch, so after doing so, I tried it again - now I wasn't even getting the cinematic. I was treated to a view of the cave's floor until I logged out and back in, and then I was apparently phased into the sub and couldn't move, but I saw myself sitting in the cave, which was empty. I tried it twice more with the same results.

Kommentar von aviandri

Yeah tried the DnD and it crashed, tried abandoning and logging out twice and didn't worked...anyone else have any ideas?

Kommentar von 358963

Typical .. got right to the end of the quest and it bugged ! Guildys say stuff about lag spike.
Logged out and back in .. still bugged.
Log out ... log alt..... game decides to hang.
Log main char that was doing quest .... stil hangs ...... must be time to sleep.

Nah one more try :)

Still no luck. Guess servers is at fault ! Oh well beauty sleep needed so i look in the morning lol

Yup server is down so cant blame quest. Guess you better all keep trying

Kommentar von 53301

If you can not turn in the quest, try to relog. Worked for me.

Kommentar von 23503

When stuck on sub just drop the quest and it will port you out and you'll be right back next to Erunak.

Kommentar von 158669

Started quest, got cut scene, got sub with no NPCs. Took this thread's advice, abandoned quest, started over, saw NPCs for about 2 seconds then they disappeared. Tried this about 4 more times. Tried relogging. Tried quitting and restarting, then gave up and just sat in there with the same group of people who were also in the sub with me having the same problems. One of the people in there told me "my guildies said sit here for about 10 mins and the NPCs reappear". At minute #8 the game crashed completely out so I submitted Blizz a error log. I told them "GAME CRASH! SUB QUEST BUGGED! HALP ME HALP! KTHX"

:(

Kommentar von mattearl

I did what Rukkya said. I mounted, went to another area (aka Seabrush), then came back (basically just zoning out of the area) and when I made my circle he spawned.

Kommentar von 725557

If you're in combat when the honor guard spawn, you wont see the cinematic, thus not completing the quest.

Kommentar von 479030

Has anyone figured out what to do about the drowning bug? I've been unable to complete this quest for two days now because of it.

Kommentar von nemspyda

The issues with this quest definitely stem from others phasing in while you're doing it. I tried to get people to wait so we could do it one at a time, but it was impossible to stop people spamming it over and over. Anyway after a fruitless hour of attempts during primetime I tried it at 5AM just after our server restarted - everything went fine with the exception of the quest NPC not spawning to turn in the quest at the end. This problem is solved by a quick relog.

So - to complete this quest as it currently stands:

1 - wait till a really dead time, like early in the morning after a restart.
2 - logout and log back in if the legionnaire does not spawn for turnin after you complete the event.

Kommentar von Biofalcon

I was able to do the quest without any problems today at 9:00 a.m. server time. I attacked every NPC that spawned except the last honor guards. Actually i had not the chance to target them, since the last cutscene started 2 seconds after they appeared. I don't know if this was due to luck, or that last night's rolling restarts actually fixed the problem.

Kommentar von 726029

Here's the deal. First - don't start this quest unless you have a good 15 minutes to spare. It's a long sequence and you have no control over it.

Talk to the questgiver to start the sequence. The cinematic starts. From this point on, do nothing. While you're inside the sub, you can use the remote viewer consoles to see outside the sub.

After the sub sequence, do your best to stay out of fights. You don't need to kill anything. Engaging a Naga could bug out the quest altogether. If a Naga attacks you, just stay alive, they don't last long.

Second sequence as they engage the Naga at the crater, definitely don't attack anything. Just watch, watch, watch.

At the end, stay where you are and the turn-in NPC is right there (might take a few seconds to see him).

*edit* - This quest is all about the lore behind the Throne of the Tides instance. Listen and watch the story.

Kommentar von Skreenname

Worked fine for me a few minutes ago.
I attacked some naga when they attacked me, and prettymuch just followed along.
Turned in the quest, 20k leagues ahoy!

Kommentar von silkfire

If you can't see Nazgrim at the rim of the Abyssal Breach after the battle is over, logout and relog and he will appear. But hurry before he despawns again. At the end of the cinematic you will see Erunak floating around for 1 min (bug) until it finally ends. Don't worry, your computer hasn't hanged!

Kommentar von Mitsukai

Is repaired and working for Malorne, if quest giver to turn in isn't there just swim up about 20 yrds then back down he will be there.

Kommentar von 727474

All you have to do is talk to Erunak, he's at the end of the table. Then just ride the submarine, after it sinks you need to follow the crew. Fight off the naga, then watch the video and then your quest should be complete. Easy.

Kommentar von 727652

It's now working, but don't attack any mobs, 'cause if you do, you can't hand in the quest.

Kommentar von 123635

This quest starts out with you inside of a submarine. You have to wait for a while before finally being put back in the ocean. Once you are, be ready to fight and follow Nazgrim. A cutscene will show a fight between the Lady Naz'jar and Neptulon, afterward you will be given control of your character back. Nazgrim should be right in front of you at this point, so you can turn in the quest easily.

Following the story, you swim down into the middle of the Abyssal Breach, then into the Throne of Tides. Nazgrim will be directly inside the instance with two follow-up quests:

Rescue the Earthspeaker!
Sins of the Sea Witch

edit: I need more coffee

Kommentar von 410667

With that weird bug I found a way to stay in the quest "instance" by using Remote Viewing Device, but after I reach this dialogue:
Erunak Stonespeaker says: Without aid, they will fail.
I got stucked, and it starts all over.
If someone manage to pass that part plz post it.

Kommentar von SirVaksghn

Even though I completed this quest I can still see Erunak Stonespeaker at Tenebrous Cavern. Is this a bug or have they not bothered to phase him.

Kommentar von 728924

I coudn't find the NPC to after the first time.
I just waited on the spot were he should be, and i think some-one else was also on the quest.
Than i saw the final confersation, and i could turn in my quest.

I swim with the orc into the abyss thing, and i discoverd an dungeon entrance. ^ ^

Kommentar von sshambar

Had the npcs disappear, and typed

/console reloadui

and they all reappeared and I could complete the quest...

might give that a try as a workaround :)

Kommentar von 97781

If you log out and back in the quest giver will be there to complete the quest

Kommentar von Nazgren

I may have found a workaround for the phasing problem while on the submarine.

As soon as you first phase in, go to one of the Remove Viewing Consoles and use it. As soon as the cutscene is over, use another one. Try to keep yourself "re-phasing" back into the sub as the whole event continues to unfold.

While you are viewing the cutscenes, the game seems to ignore the fact that other people are trying to phase in also, and will let you continue.

You'll know it's working if the NPC's event text continues to advance while you are using the viewing consoles.

Kommentar von TM2Ben

Its idd verry bugged, atm you cant do anything. i hope blizzard repair this bug fast ;-)

Kommentar von 173752

Does anyone know when the last time anyone completed this quest on the Horde side and what did you do to get it to work?

Kommentar von Ntharlp

Thralls balls! I'm sick of fighting naga.

Kommentar von 119033

i dropped teh quest by mistake , where do you pick it up again...cant find the quest giver...plz put zone and coordinates..
I went to the location onthe map above but no luck any ideas?

thx

Kommentar von wowheadizmydaddy

I had two ultimately failed attempts (quest completed, but not able to turn in). I attempted once more after finishing 2-3 unfinished quests that I did not realize I had not completed. This did not resolve the issue at all.

As of 13 Dec 2010, quest is still not working in many ways. Ultimately even if the quest 'completes', it cannot be turned in to a NPC.

If the quest is left completed but not turned in, it will leave the Abyssal Maw in a phase where the player cannot access the dungeon/raid entrances by going down the Abyssal Maw vortex. Suggestion is to just leave this alone completely (not attempted or in quest log) until Blizzard fixes it.

FWIW, as of this date, it is STILL not in Blizz' known bug list on Battle.net bug forum. Dismal....

Kommentar von 168133

OK now i call forth all of these who completed it to be maximum complicated when giving the answer by sayin step by step what exactly to do...
After taking quest and sayin ure ready u get cinematic and then ure in submarine
NPCs are there with you 2-3 secs and they dissapear and submarine is swimmin round the abyss for ever...
now
what to do to fix it?
relog doesnt work
abandon quest doesnt work
HS out of it and swim back doesnt work
killin urself and swimming back doesnt work
now step by step how to do it :)
maybe avoid cinematic and just swim there? i didnt try that so far

Kommentar von 61405

Still not working on Hyjal as of the other day. There's a several page long thread in the bug section of Blizz's WoW forums, without one blue post to it. They claimed to have fixed it, but whatever they "fixed", it didn't work.

As for steps, I tried everything in this thread to no avail. I tried this at 3 am on my server when hardly anyone was around. By constantly clicking the viewer in the back corner, I was able to keep the npcs from despawning and go through each part of their script. Constantly clicking on the viewer showed cutscenes with poor camera positioning. Finally got the main orc npc (forget the name atm, and doing this on memory) to say to park it close to the rift and a goblin npc said he couldn't, current is too strong. And then....nothing. It just kept driving the stupid sub around. Zoned out, abandoned quest, the whole thing, retrying this method each time to get the same result. And not clicking on the viewer would have the npcs despawn within 2 - 3 seconds.

I'm honestly amazed this made it to live and that they have yet to fix this properly.

Kommentar von 61405

Tried this method, only got as far as them wanting to park nearby but unable to do it because of the strong current. Then it just kept driving around the area with no further conversation from the npcs and no further action. Did this for a good 30 minutes (timed by way of the warlock fel armor buff).

Kommentar von 168133

again stuck in submarine and nothing happens - just wandering round the pit for eternity...

Kommentar von malavae

I completed this today - quite cool actually that you can be inside a sort of vid instance and still battle stuff.

The misleading thing to start with is the fact the hand-in question mark is over at the Abyss, when it's actually the same guy you pick up the quest from.

Once you speak to him and tell him you're ready to go, the vid starts. It runs in a couple of segments. I crashed back to the login screen at the interchange between the first two, but on relogging I was immediately at the start of the second segment, and the rest of the quest went fine.

It's a bit of fun actually, and you get to go into the whirlpool to discover the instance down there.

So it still has issues, but at least you can get it done now.

Kommentar von 728788

I could not complete this quest. I died of suffocation in the submarine. Spent about 10 minutes trying to recover my corpse from the moving submarine then gave up. Cost 47g for repairs after respawning at the grave yard. I'll not be getting on that sub again! hope there weren't too many quests left in the chain.

Edit: And I wanted that Drape of the Helmsman!

Kommentar von 112001

You can simply abandon the quest and you will be teleported back to the questgiver no need to die from suffocation.

And yes the quest is still bugged no one in my realm can complete it, the NPC are despawning as soon as more than 1 player spawn in they submarine, for me the despawned even when i was alone in the submarine.

And Blizz is hotfixing the end of the quest but we can even start it, great work.

Kommentar von blah54222000

I waited an hour in the sub... npc's were there for about 5 seconds before they vanished... blizz needs to fix this soon... By the way if you go to the door at the top of the sub you will "swim" for a second and then you will get air back.. there is no need to die trying this quest... also I've tried restarting the quest several times still no luck

Kommentar von 112001

Struggling with it for 4 days opened 3 tickets and search al lthe internets.
The quest is bugged but i complete with the "Remote console" trick.

When you get on the sub go left or right and click the console keep clicking it when you are going back to the sub till you reach the battle and voila quest done.

Kommentar von rslogic

My question actually concerns what happens AFTER you complete the quest and **SPOILER** Erunak is captured **/end SPOILER**.

I swam down into the vortex but couldn't find the Legionnaire. So...I'm kinda assuming the next "part" of the quest is just doing the instance.

Kommentar von 98871

I have just completed this using the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole fishing pole as suggested on the official wow forums.

Previous to that I experienced just about every one of the bugs that have been mentioned on this site and others too.

The latest being that if I accepted the quest and then said I was ready it would put me in the cutsceen but I would not move I just stood where the quest giver was, frozen and stunned. I could not hearth, or unstuck, I could not do anything other than log out and back in, still stunned and frozen, abandon, then relog again.

When I equiped the fishing rod, everything ran smoothly cutsceens, the boat, no phasing issues, everthing went perfect, quest completed with no issues other than getting ganked by about 5 ally before I could hand it in.

I suspect the issues are mainly caused by not being able to breath under water. I had other members of my guild complete this the same as me and/or with underwater breathing spells or items that provided it. The important part was that I had underwater breathing before I started the event.

Kommentar von 346524

Still bugged 16/12/2010 21:05 AEST

I attempted this last night for the first time. The cinematic played as I started the quest, once the cinematic stopped and switched to being inside the sub everything was completely black. I could see a breathe meter (which stayed on 3 min and did not go down at all) and my UI but was unable to do anything or even move. I was impatient as I suspected something was wrong, so I hard closed (ALT + F4) wow.

After hard closing I attempted to log back on and was immediately disconnected. I gave it a few minutes and tried to log on again. The loading screen appeared, the blue loading bar filled completely then stayed on there for about 10 minutes then disconnected again.

I then decided to wait an hour and go on another character. Once on another character it said that the main i was doing the quest on was still online (even an hour after I logged off) but it wasn't sure where it was (Destination: Unknown). Then after a few more minutes it went offline.

I decided to leave it for the morning and try again. After 11 hours later, I tried to log on. Failed to log on once again. Keeps getting stuck on the loading screen then disconnecting. I am unsure how to resolve this, being unable to even log onto my character is very frustrating. I have put in a ticket but any help would be appreciated.

Worked fine for me on the second attempt. First attempt WoW just outright crashed after the first little sub cinematic. Relog, go back to the questgiver, and restart it. Worked fine then. I did attack the nagas, did not mount up, stayed with the group.

After all these replies I'm surprised no one has commented on this nice, epic capstone to Vashjir. Quick thoughts:
I was very sorry to see that awesome sub go down.

The kraken and other goings on in ToT makes much more sense now. I really want to take out that kraken and have some epic calamari.

(Horde) Legionnaire Nazgrim is one of my fave characters. Badass and a sense of humor. "Well, going down there can't be any worse than facing Hellscream after this.."

I have relogged, abandoned quest, picked it up again, drowned, hearthed out, been disconnected from the server and everything else that everyone has suggested... Now, my character is logged in, even though I am not... I have opened a ticket to have someone log her out because I am getting super peeved at not being able to play her... Anybody else have any other bright ideas.

Kommentar von 708031

Finally got this to work. Not sure if the bug is fixed, but the key for me seemed to be doing it late at night while few other people were online.

Kommentar von Danning

Umm.. i need help atm i dont know where to go is this the last quest becuse im only 82...... someone plz tell me where to go and also how the hell do i get out of vashjir? really annoying.

Kommentar von 736563

Ok getting through the cinematic to where the breath bar is there. Then I start taking damage it's says to get to the top but for some odd reason I can't get up the walk way due to being a tauren anyone else having the same issue. Just a FYI If u are a tauren doin this quest make sure u have pygmy oils to shrink down to a pygmy or u can't get up top

Kommentar von gkinder1978

TREMENDOUS WASTE OF TIME RIGHT NOW. THE BUG IS NOT FIXED. I TRIED ALL THE FIXES LISTED ON THIS SITE AND NOTHING WORKED

Kommentar von Ztalmerna

Another thing to note, when it bugs out you eventually lose track of the sub during the cinematic (it just dissapears after a few seconds)

I managed to play around with this:

if you alt+f4 during the cinematic and then log in.. you'll find your toon "stuck" just outside the cave.

I relogged here and went to the rift -> nothing there
Then I went to the cave.

Told the guy again to take me to the reach. Here I saw a cinematic with the sub in full sight.

The npcs chatting nicely... but eventually dissapearing again.

So things different:
- Sub in the cinematic;
- NPC's chatting longer.

I'm going to experiment a bit more, perhaps I can find a moment to bug the bug :)

Kommentar von 454315

not sure what everyone is talking about i did this quest a few days ago and it worked just fine, no problems at all!

my problem is where to go quest after completing it! no more quests and no idea where the next area is?

Kommentar von 430950

@ AdultX If you're on this submarine then it means that you should have already completed all of your Vashj'ir quests (and gotten the achv to prove it) and that you just go back to Org (or your alliance city) and talk to someone about going to a new zone.

And while this quest worked fine for my mage a few days ago, it is currently bugging out on me on 12/20. I get the despawning NPCs, the breath bar and the never ending sub ride. I've abandoned, logged out, quit the game, etc and nothing has worked. So while I already know where the entrance to ToT is, it sucks that I currently won't be able to get the quests for the dungeon because I can't defend the stupid rift.

Kommentar von 739336

ok this is a very long cinimatic ride along prolly over 5mins i didnt time it. to start this quest talk to the guy right next to where u got it that willstart the cinimatics then just follow the guys in the ship that u are in when it crashes and the game takes you along so get a drink and watch for a while. alos you can discover the instance of the tides if you swim down the whirlpool but becareful i died when i went the wrong way

Kommentar von Slaybrood

Is this the end of the Vashj'ir Questline? It did'nt seem like it when the ork said something like "I'm going in, If you're half the <Race> you say you are you'll come with me". Then when i follow him theres nothing down there apart from a dungeon! :S

Kommentar von DarkLordMagus

Just completed this today 12/21 and had not issues and nothing bugged. I was on the sub, then after cinematic I was on the sea floor and just followed the NPCs through the whole thing.

Kommentar von 741991

I need some help here. I accepted the quest and went to the rift right ahead. I didnt find any NPC or dudes to kill at the rift so i tought it was buggde so i abandoned the quest and went back to where the questgiver should have been. He aint there, the tents etc is still there but no questgiver. I've tryed like... evrything! What should i do? Please help me.

Kommentar von omerc10696

Had to go afk soon after starting the quest, returned expecting to be dead or the quest failed instead I was next to the quest NPC (the one you hand it in to) and the quest completed. Turns out an Azsh'ir Abductor knocks you out, grabs you and swims towards the group, only to be killed and drop you with the group if you get separated from the group of NPCs. Turns out this happened every time the group moved forward and allowed me complete the quest without being there.

Kommentar von 17264

As of this day, it is working.... sit tight and enjoy the ride and the storyline. Not much killing but a nice reward and achievement!

Kommentar von wye43

For me it bugged after Erunak was grabbed by the tentacle. The entire cutscene/phasing stopped and I was left there to wait for nothing.
After 5 minutes of boredom, I decided to come here and read the gazilion of comments about how bugged it this quest. I equipped the kalu'ak pole and the cutscene rolled back automatically about midway and I got the quest complete message.

Then I didn't had any NPC to turn the quest in to.

I waited again a few minutes, the cutscene begun again, this time at the end there was the NPC to turn it in.

This quest is so screwed.

Kommentar von mommyclz

I must add that, even if you are able to complete this quest with no bugs, it is STILL the most annoying quest ever! I watched 4 cut scenes in the boat, 2 or 3 on the floor, spent a lot of time feigning death so I wouldnt die . . . thats a LOT of time watching BORING movies for really not that much xp! If i'd known it didnt lead to more quests, I might have skipped the achievement . . . even WITHOUT bugs.

Kommentar von MaegotH

on Wrymrest Accord and it's bugged for my wife. Will start out like it's going to work then all NPC's vanish. Tried everything, still no luck.....

Kommentar von Grombug

For those of you who couldn't see the event due to the current bugs, here's a transcript of the events during the quest (my own descriptions in *):

*After the initial cutscene ends, the Verne moves around in a circle outside the Abyssal Breach*

*You can walk around inside the sub, but not talk to any NPC, but there are remote viewing devices on the walls which can used to watch whats happening outside. You can only see lots of water elementals and revenants fighting faceless ones everywhere around the Abyssal Breach*

Verne Crewmember yells: I have a clear shot here! Get me more ammo!
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: You heard him! Keep that gun stocked with ammo!
Verne Crewmember says: Now, this is what i call a target rich environment!

Erunak Stonespeaker says: Use caution when firing those shells...
Erunak Stonespeaker says: Neptulon's revenants must not consider us enemies!
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: Keep those naga away from the crater!
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: If they get a foothold in the plane of water, we'll never get 'em out!

Fiasco Sizzlegrin says: Calculating trajectory...
Fiasco Sizzlegrin says: Calibrating fuse...
Fiasco Sizzlegrin says: Munitions ready!
Verne Crewmember yells: Commence Fire!
Fiasco Sizzlegrin says: Wahoo!

Legionnaire Nazgrim says: Where's the mighty Neptulon, shaman?
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: Why are we stuck protecting his domain?
Erunak Stonespeaker says: The lords of the elemental planes are beings of pure chaos, Nazgrim.
Erunak Stonespeaker says: No one can discern their motives...
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: Bah! Unless he wants his home overrun by these serpents, he's better show himself...
Verne Crewmember says: Look at the size of those things! What ARE they?
Erunak Stonespeaker says: The naga have enlisted the aid of the Old God's minions.
Erunak Stonespeaker says: Twisted creatures bent on the destruction of all living beings.
Verne Crewmember says: Sorry I asked...

Legionnaire Nazgrim says: The elementals are grossly outnumbered.
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: They don't stand a chance...
Erunak Stonespeaker says: I sense desperation in them.
Erunak Stonespeaker says: Without aid, they will fail.
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: Enough of this!
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: We waste our time here just floating about...
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: If we are to defend the rift, we must do it directly!
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: Set us down next to the crater!
Verne Crewmember says: Th-there's no way, sir! The current... it's too strong!

*A cutscene starts, showing the Verne from behind. Lady Naz'jar and a host of naga are following the sub*
Lady Naz'jar says: What hubrisss these fools possessss!
Lady Naz'jar says: It ssshall profit them nothing, sssave it be a ssspeedy demise...
Lady Naz'jar says: Dessstroy them!

*The naga quickly close in on the Verne and surround her, showering the sub with electricity, cutscene ends*
*The Verne has crashed into the ground near the outer wall of the Abyssal Breach, oil leaks from the engines, all NPCs are outside, including yourself, fighting against elite naga*

Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: On your feet! Naga attack!
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: We must hurry! Do something, shaman!
*Erunak Stonespeaker one-shots all naga with chain lightning into bloody pieces*
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: That sub's gunna blow! We have to move, now!
Erunak Stonespeaker says: We must make our way to the crater!
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: More naga... make ready!
Erunak Stonespeaker yells: Enough!
*Erunak Stonespeaker blows the second wave of naga to bits with chain earth spikes coming from the ground* *The group starts swimming closer to the crater*

*Suddenly Lady Sira'kess approaches from the front*
Legionnaire Nazgrim says: Thralls balls! I'm sick of fighting naga!
*Lady Sira'kess casts ice block on everyone, the spell lasts for a minute*
Lady Sira'kess says: Ahh, visitorsss!
Lady Sira'kess says: You must forgive me... I have no time to ssstay and play.
Lady Sira'kess says: In my absssence, my ssservantsss will...sssee to your needs.
*Lady Sira'kess casts tentacles which attack the group and starts to swim away, towards the crater.*
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: I'll die someday, sea-witch...
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: ...but not today!
*Legionnaire Nazgrim charges out of the iceblock and leaps on Lady Sira'kess' back, killing her instantly, the tentacles dissolve*

Erunak Stonespeaker yells: Neptulon's minions are growing desperate! We must hurry!
*The group swims toward the crater and arrives on a hill near the Abyssal Breach*

Erunak Stonespeaker yells: This is it! The entrance to Neptulon's realm...
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: Naz'jar and her honor guard! Fight for your lives!
*Lady Naz'jar and a huge number of her honor guard swoop in from above, some start attacking the group, but most of them stay in formation with Lady Naz'jar and swim near the edge of the crater, and at the same time Neptulon rises from the depths - a cutscene starts*

Lady Naz'jar yells: Come, children of Azshara! At last, we lay claim to the Plane of Water!
Lady Naz'jar yells: Go, my naga! Welcome the mighty Tidehunter to Azeroth!
*A large number of the honor guard attacks Neptulon, but he freezes them all, and they fall down dead, like raindrops*
Neptulon yells: You and your scaly worms are no match for me...
*Neptulon shoots a crackling blue energy beam towards Lady Naz'jar, who responds with her own crackling red energy beam just short of being hit*
Neptulon yells: You've reached too far, serpent. You shall suffer greatly for your trespass!
*Lady Naz'jar's red beam becomes stronger and pushes Neptulons blue beam back until both energy beams are locked in the middle*
Lady Naz'jar yells: To me, my minions! Strike now!
Lady Naz'jar yells: Now! Unleash the kraken!
*The giant kraken Ozumat attacks Neptulon from the side and attaches himself to his face - Neptulons blue beam vanishes, he is hit by Lady Naz'jar's red beam - the kraken and Neptulon go down and submerge in the crater*
Lady Naz'jar yells: Follow me, my pets! The realm of the mighty Neptulon is ours at last!
*Lady Naz'jar and her naga follow Neptulon down into the crater, the cutscene ends and you stand on a ledge overlooking the crater, together with Nazgrim and Erunak *

Legionnaire Nazgrim says: Well, shaman, what now?
Erunak Stonespeaker says: We have suffered a tragic defeat.
Erunak Stonespeaker says: Any hope for the future of our world has grown much bleaker.
Erunak Stonespeaker says: Thrall must be told of this day's events.
Erunak Stonespeaker says: He will guide our next steps...

*a cutscene starts*
Legionnaire Nazgrim yells: Erunak! Behind you!
*A giant tentacle reaches out from the crater, grabs Erunak and pulls him down, cutscene ends, quest completed*

Kommentar von kurojushi

I tried it last night at 3:30 AM and it was broken. Went to sleep. Woke up and tried it again at 1:00 PM and it worked flawlessly. Maybe they are in the process of applying a hotfix to all realms, be patient, it'll work for everyone soon.

Kommentar von Eostare

Does anyone know what I have to do in order to gain access to this quest? I've already completed the naga quests, and the quest chain that leads to escaping the huge from the huge clam...

Kommentar von kg333

Still broken on Medivh. NPCs despawn if viewers are not used, and nothing happens after the "Take down to the sea floor! -I can't do that sir!" exchange.

Disappointing, really. This quest is supposed to be the big finale for the zone, and instead I'm getting peeved about fiddling with bugs for an hour.

EDIT: Quest worked normally the next day. Maybe the rolling restarts helped.

Kommentar von 748909

The quest is not permanently bugged. If the scene does't work out the first time (i.e. after you leave the cave you should have an in the sub scene), then simply abandon the quest and you will go right back to the quest giver.

- When you leave the cave, a few seconds later you switch to an in the sub scene. This is a long scene where your not in a cimamatic area, you can actually move around. Just ride out the scene, and listen to the dialog. Eventually you'll go back to an cinamatic scene where the Naga are chasing the sub. They will attack and you pop back into game play and you're on the sea floor.

- Follow the NPCs from here on out, don't get ahead of them. It'll take you to the las scene of the zone, where you will complete the last quest for the area. You then enter the instant and off you go.

P.S. You can fight when the NPCs fight, the shaman always saves your butts.

Good luck.

Kommentar von TheRaven7

JUST completed this quest less than 10 minutes ago, everything ran smoothly except in the beginning when the submarine left the cavern I d/c. I logged right back in and everything went as it should have.

Kommentar von 751165

For all the Taurens, the way to fix the breath bug is head to the back corner of the ship. You should be able to get "swimming" and the breath bar will disappear.

Doesn't fix the fact that the NPCs are gone and that you can't complete the quest.

Kommentar von 751368

just completed this, after doing it i got both 20,000 leagues under the sea & sinking into vashj'ir achievements, it ran smoothly all the way through, had to fight a couple of npc's, due to been getting attacked by them

Kommentar von peeweesweden

Unless you really, really REALLY want the achievement - skip this one.

This is loooooong and booooring. Ten minutes where you do nothing but watch and wait, cutscene after cutscene.

At least it feels like you're participating in the ending of Deepholm and Mount Hyjal. Here you can literally go boil an egg while you wait.

Kommentar von Fosfor

Looks like it's fixed now. The quest takes ages to complete. The part in the boad looks like it's bugged but it just takes a long time. Just wait till he's finished. Just follow the NPC at all time.

Kommentar von Thander

The quest seems to work now, but I had a to wait a while for the event to start. I was in the proper phase and all with the NPCs, but it took about 5-10 minutes before any of them started talking. You can pass the time by using the little consoles around the ship to get a better view of the battle outside.

Kommentar von Jakobud

After accepting the quest and talking to the questgiver, the cutscene occurred that showed the submarine leaving the cavern.

Next thing, I'm on the submarine and there are a lot of NPCs. After about 5 seconds, all the NPCs disappear and I now have a breathing meter, as if I'm swimming.

Following another players advice, I walk up to the door on the third floor and it allows me to start breathing again and my breath meter goes away. But now as I'm running around inside the sub, my character is running as if he is running on the ground in Vashj'ir (you know, the long running/jumping strides). Still no NPCs though. I just run around in the sub while it circles the Abyssal Depth's endlessly.

I have no idea what to do. There is no one to talk to and nothing to click on. Relogging, Alt-F4'ing, Hearthing, Abandoning and reacquiring quest didn't not help.

Kommentar von 752957

I can't do this quest at all. Each time I log and try, speak to the NPC, tell him I am ready, I get the sub cinematic, which then gives me back the game. I can see I am inside the sub but the screen shows me blackness, and I can see on the minimap that I am running about the sub, but on the main screen I can see nothing.

I then abandoned the quest, and initially it kicked me off (twice), but I rebooted the PC entirely, and when I went through the above, -again - and then abandoned it and it took me back to the quest giver.

I still get the same issue when I try and complete the quest, which makes it impossible to complete. My friend, who was playing at the same time - his character got locked to the cinematic/instance and then it booted him from the game. He wasn't able to log back in telling him that he is already logged in and playing (as if he didn't know!), and he is currently awaiting help from a GM on another character!

My advice - avoid this quest completely.

Kommentar von Limskragma

well it seems as if the mission is still bugged after logging several times ,,ive also tried abandoning the quest and still no joy

ive opened a ticket but i doubt that will do anything

ive noticed that the npcs will despawn as soon as my breathe meter shows up

....

well the ticket came back ... its bugged and they will try to fix it blah blah ... oh well have to wait for this to be done on a patch

Kommentar von 754533

I finished this quest but now I'm stuck. I have no more quests and when I follow Nazgrim into the Maw, he just gives me quests for the instance. I'm still 15 away from 150. Was this quest supposed to be the 150th? If not, where do I pick up the next quest in this line?

Kommentar von 16215

The date is January 4th, 2011. And the bug is still. not. fixed. Every time the first little cinematic happens, with the submarine leaving the cave, it disappears after about 15 seconds, then I just keep following the camera as if it was watching something. Then I port inside the submarine, and I see all the NPC's there, for about 3 seconds (sometimes one of them will say something.) Then they disappear and I seem to phase into a different submarine. I call it the 'Limbomarine' because it seems to be the externally invisible and intangible submarine that you can only exit via ports, hearthstone, or abandoning the quest.

Also I get the little progress bar for drowning (undead FTW), this is fixed by either abandoning the quest before you die, or going upstairs (apparently impossible for tauren) and to the front door and jumping until it thinks your swimming, at which point you can then summon your seahorse and doodle around in the Limbomarine.

I've tried every combination of re-logging, exiting the actual zone on my seahorse and re-entering. Going to the limbomarine, hearthing, and looking for my actual submarine. Being in the limbomarine, hearthing, and porting again into the submarine without abandoning. Doing it in a group. Doing it when no one else is doing it. I even destroyed all my conjured items to see if that would matter. I also 'Exit Now'ed as soon as I entered the submarine and saw the NPC's in hopes that it would log me off there and log me back in. No go.

Basically the ending of this story is that, for me, this quest is quite literally broken. I can't complete it, no method will work. The limbomarine entices my character far greater than the submarine can.

I'm hoping to god that when the servers restart I'll be able to do it :]

Well I hope that this post saved some people a lot of time!

One last note: While none of these things worked for ME and I'm very screwed atm when it comes to this quest, I encourage you to try any method you think will work, even if it means repeating some of the things I did. I've read many posts about this bugged quest and some of the things that didn't work for me seem to have worked for others. So go ahead and try any number of my massive failures. =D

I wish you all lots of luck on this majestic quest! May your travels be much less law-defying than mine!

Kommentar von 255452

i spent most of my normal wow playing time to day trying and working out what bit is currently going wrong with this quests submarine bug when you are in the submarine and it puts up a breath bar and the npc's dissappear and i cannot find a way to work a way around this however by hopping into the cinematic control machines in the submachine i did delay the innevertable long enough to see that it seems to reset the event once it reaches the part of the quest when the naga attack so this is one of the areas by the looks of things blizzard realy need to sort out asap.

Kommentar von dleo97

I tried everything and being a Tauren, I drowned, died and had a big repair bill. I went and bought some Noggenfogger elixir, and still couldn't complete the quest. I submitted a ticket to Blizzard and while it was pending I accepted the quest, quit the game and stayed next to the quest giver. When I logged back in, started the event, stood still and didn't move. The NPC's went away and I still stayed put for almost 20 seconds. The story chat started in my chat log and they all came back and I was able to complete the quest in its entirety! Might want to try it or maybe my scathing ticket I submitted did something? Good luck! Nazgrim can be found inside the dungeon to get the rest of the quests btw.

Kommentar von 504082

This quest is broken as of today on Sen'jin, Horde side.

I've tried every method mentioned here and elsewhere and nothing worked.

You start the quest, see a little cutscene, then after a few seconds on the boat all the NPC's phase out and you start losing breath. You can go get breath up top but it doesn't do any good. no amount of waiting or other people starting the quest will phase you back in. They'll just join you (or you them) in the "out of phase" boat. I've done it when no one else was doing it and I've done it when others were doing it. I've tried logging in and out on the boat; reloading my UI, using the remote viewers (you can extend the NPC discussion but you cannot continue the event; it will always still stop after the captain says to land the boat by the rift; you get no further scenes and you will phase out again).

There is no solution to this. Possibly if there is a server reset it will work, for a while. But that's not a solution and this is getting irritating. Worse is Blizzard is seemingly pretending that the problem doesn't exist. Not responding to any of the bug reports in the bug forum over the last month on this exact subject. It's like they got it in their head that they fixed it (this specific issue was supposedly fixed on the Dec 8th hotfix) and then shoved their heads right in the sand and refuse to hear more.

I would be surprised if this got fixed at all. If you're stuck with this situation; hopefully you can catch a server reset because that'll probably be the only way you will ever complete the quest.

Kommentar von Thundermoose

Today I tried the quest once again and it has become even buggier than the breathlosing counterpart. The openening(Non skipable - arh!) cutscene will show you some empty water and won't progress from there, furthermore as you can't skip you're unable to do anything and must alt-F4 unless you have some kind of water fetish.

Then when I logged back in my character was standing in the place where you take the quest, however it was phased and no one was there. Oh yeah, and I was stunned and couldn't move or HS. Thankfully I was able to exit the game properly by escape or /logout.

The second time I relogged my character was back in the normal phase.

Kommentar von 147875

Still bugged. I am stuck on a boat with a breath bar. NPCs appear and then disappear. Predictably, I run out of breath and die.

I abandoned the quest and tried again. Same problem.

Kommentar von Alcha

Anyone know if theres follow up quests? Just finished this leaving me at 134/150 quests not sure where to go next lol.

Kommentar von 762672

You wait in the sub for about FIVE MINUTES while they fight. It seems like it's broken but it's not...you can't get out of the sub either that's intended.

Later, the sub lands on the sand and you might want to put a raid mark on the Captain or Shaman. Stay with them. A couple of elites come and attck but they get killed for you shortly.

More cut scenes appear and finally you get the completion and an achievement.

Kommentar von Niewinny

Blizz may have debugged this since the above posts - I found the sequence to proceed without a hitch, and turned in the quest and got the achievement. What puzzles me is whether I'm supposed to do something afterward - I'm taunted to follow Nazgrim after the tentacle grabs Erunak. I get caught in a whirlpool and dumped somewhere very deep. I look for something to do or someone to talk to and after a few seconds, I die mysteriously (I'm guessing fatigue). I rez at a graveyard near the Throne of Tides instance. Did I miss something?

Kommentar von Nunyunuymi

Tauren: Keep pygmy oil on you for this quest, or you will not be able to go up the spiral ramps in the submarine.

Kommentar von bandaid

On my first attempt at this quest, my game crashed and I had to restart my computer.
When I signed back on, the quest automatically restarted itself. That was the only issue that I had with the quest. The quest guy was there; didn't have to swim back. And for me as well, this was after the restarts.

Remember to follow Legionnaire Nazgrim when he goes after Erunak. You'll discover the entrance to The Throne of the Tides. In case you ever wanna do that dungeon. =D

Kommentar von cherme

Everyone keeps talking about "issues" but exactly what issues are you referring to? Are you all having the same or different ones? I think in all the posts above I saw one person actually explain their specific "issue." Mine is talk to Erunak, get cut scene, on the sub and npc's vanish and I'm running out of breath. Check inventory... ok, I've got a bladder still in there good for 3 mins if I need it. Half out of breath and no signs of landing at our destination so I use the bladder. 3 mins later I start running out of breath again and I'm still riding in the stupid sub. No more bladder and my hearth is on CD so I just sit there and die. Nice. Thanks Bliz, once again. So is this "the bug" everyone is talking about or is mine unique?

Kommentar von archilles

Dear Diary,

It is 21 January today and this is my 5th attempt at doing this quest.

I accepted the quest and spoke the the questgiver and the cinematic plays for me once more. I am really getting bored of the cinematic but I endure it regardless... and guess what? I drown on the submarine again.

I hope Blizzard fixes this soon, those buggers... I am really getting pissed off...

EDIT: Its 25 Jan today and I finally completed the quest. =)

Kommentar von blackfox00

all the time npc's dissapear..any help what can i do?after the 1st small cinematic i am in the submarine and npc's suddenly dissapear i cant do nothing..i even relog and abaddon the quest many times..any help? i am 82 lvl blood elf paladin

Kommentar von 333965

A game master confirmed me that "it works whenever it wants...", so there is nothing we can do about it, except wait for the next patch (current patch is 4.0.3, I think).

Kommentar von Ariamodasu

As hilarious as it is being in Sealion or on the Seahorse in this sub, I'm getting fed up after 20 attempts, it's STILL glitching. I'm seeing loads of people also getting trapped because of the blasted thing :/ The sub has also started disappearing on the cinematic and we keep getting taunted by bits of speech before the npcs vanish to leave us to our death.

Kommentar von cervantes1984

Had this bug today, NPC's kept dissapearing, but i stayed on the boat after approx 10x going around it did finally complete, doing it bit by bit every time i hit a certain point.

So advice is stick with it, it will complete.

Still very buggy, and I have been unable to complete in in 30 tries. I see the cut screen of the ship for about 10 seconds, before I see nothing but water, and then I arrive inside. The npcs disappear after about 5 seconds, sometimes dialogue starts, sometimes not. The farthest I have gotten is when I kept clicking on the viewing stations, and I managed about 2 minutes of the talking, but they still inevitably disappeared.

And taurens can go up one of the ramps. I managed to go up the one on the left, but could not go up the one on the right. Not sure what difference it makes though... if you don't want to drown just abandon the quest, it will bring you back to the cave.

Kommentar von 82362

Ok, this quest went completely &*!@-up for me. I started the cinematic and it just hung there. It was focused on the ground for 5 minutes and nothing happened. I closed WoW and reopened, after which I could see my character. However, there were no NPCs and I couldn't move, hearth or cast since you "can't do that while stunned". I opened a GM ticket.

GM had me log to another character whereupon he moved my original toon back to org. I went back in and turned ALL my video options down to nothing (GM seemed to think it was causing the client trouble having them all up high) and tried the cinematic again. This time it seemed to work ok.

The GM also told me that this quest is just...universally messed up right now. Good luck if you try this!

Kommentar von Jogadore

Well, I somehow died while on the boat, couldn't get to my body as it was on the verne and ended up having to take rez sickness, awesome.

Kommentar von paralize24

I so wish Bliz would fix this. I am getting nearly all the way through this until the last cinematic, which doesn't show any detail and all you see is DIE WORM!

I think I have done nearly everything I can, on 2 different computers, even disabling all my add ons, even after a restart.

Kommentar von 782657

The nagas should attack Neptulon, but they don't do anything in the cutscene. Then you pop out of the cutscene and nothing is happening. Tried everything I could imagine, relogging, swin to shimmering, abbandon and try again, but nothing works.

Kommentar von Incelcior

Just worked for me after some failed attempts.

Maybe it was just dumb luck but I did several things that might have caused it:

- Dismissed my pet
- After leaving the submarine I swam as soon as I could move to the bottom of the sub's wreckage where a naga picked me up and brought me back to Erunak.
- I didn't do anything to the waves of naga (canceled any buffy that would harm them too). I just ran around in circles until Erunak killed them.
-After getting out of the Sea Witch's Deep Freeze I swam to the edge of the Abyss and then back to Erunak. The cutscene started and surprisingly it finished.

Don't know if it helps but that's what I did.

Kommentar von 785494

Just tried it 8 times with all the advice in this thread. none of it worked. finnaly i went did some dailies
came back did it with anotherplayer and he rode his horse and attacked all naga but the last wave and it worked! so WTF ever! (redwood twistingneather)

Kommentar von Talfen

Still nothing with my character. I tried just standing there numerous times, to no avail. After awhile I decided to try rushing to the viewing stations, which helped progress the dialogue along to a point. So long as I kept using the stations, the dialogue kept going. But once I hit a certain point, I believe it's where Kelgrim or whoever says to land the sub, nothing. They disappeared a few seconds later, along with the viewing stations. I've decided to wait for a GM response to my ticket, but that could take awhile. I'm just sitting in the sub waiting to see if anything happens.

Kommentar von 24745

Completed it today. Did it right when the servers came back after maintenance.

Kommentar von 639229

Bugged for me too. It plays through find until I get to part where Neptulon appears. He and the naga leader just sort of stare at each other and nothing happens. Then I get my UI back and all the NPCs vanish.

Kommentar von tysongg

having the same problem. =( does all the cut scenes and nothing after.

Kommentar von Sasrielle

Similar issues on SWC - finally got to the scene with Neptulon's arrival, then Erunak and co disappear and I'm left staring at the Naga and Neptulon. This is the 18th time I'm trying to finish up here!

Kommentar von 790411

the crap does not work for me

Kommentar von 791342

Ok so, I did the defending the rift, and like other people have said, the NPC's have disappeared and the breath bar floats above my head. So I abandoned it and relogged to see if it would help. Well I logged back in and now it claims that I am stunned and I can't move and NPC's won't even load inside the cave. Has this happened to anyone else or is it just my server? (Moon Guard)

Kommentar von thulas

had the same issues as everyone else, wrote a ticket and got the reponse to:

-turn off all addons
-relog
-accept quest and do absolutly nothing, don't touch keyboard/mouse
-enjoy

and...it worked for me!

Kommentar von OldWolf

The Neptulon cinematic seems to be bugged for some players, as of 4.0.6. Others in my guild have completed it successfully though.

My full description on the official forum

Failing to attack the honour guard, as suggested by another poster for 4.0.3, made no difference. I even tried being stealthed one time so I was not even put into combat.

Kommentar von 719872

Uggh.. 6 attempts and no luck. Bugs out for me at the same point every time. The final scene where I assume Neptulon is supposed to fight the enemy. Camera zooms in on the two, but then nothing happens for about a minute. Then the scene ends, and I'm floating a short distance from where the scene started.

Interesting thing I haven't seen anybody else mention yet. When I come back out of the final scene, there's a copy of me standing close to the ledge of the crater, at the exact point on the map where the indicator for this quest says I should go. A couple minutes later, the copy of me dies.

On this last attempt, I decided to go stand on that spot before the cut scene starts. The result was that I got all the dialogue of the final scene, but no movie. Then it's over, and I'm just standing there (same result as all the other fails) with no copy of me.

I've tried everything posted in this thread: Did not attack any naga, swam to diff zone, logged out and back in, HS to org, then tried again, none of it helped. Guess this is one achievement I'll just give up on.

Kommentar von Blackingout

Had 5 attempts at this. The final cinematic always failed. (the dialog between Lady Naz'jar and Neptulon never started, the camera would pan around tough.)
Tried re-logging, waiting, swimming in and out. doing nothing. not mounting etc.
Final attempt worked.
I disabled all my add-ons by pressing disable all add-ons @ the char screen.
Logged in accepted the quest talked to the guy and did absolutely nothing just waited and went trough all the cinematic. i even tabbed out and read some stuff @ wowhead.
Don't worry about swimming after the npc's a naga will come pick you up and drop you at the next "checkpoint/cinematic".
The final cinematic worked and after that i could complete the quest.

Kommentar von Brigan

I am having a problem where the game crashes when you get into the second screen fade. After the crash...I can't get logged back into that toon anymore. I have disabled all of my addins. Anyone else having this problem?

Kommentar von 784441

its bugged for when i see the last movie and then i get a copy of myself

Kommentar von Lunakick

Okay I can't seem to fix this bug I have tried everything from redoing it to logging off then back on from just standing there and not going anything, letting the naga bring me to the next checkpoint... The bug always seems to happen in the last video when the Lady and her "children" are welcoming the tidehunter... Now I'm guess that the tidehunter and the lady naga are suppose to fight but nothing happens they just look at each other... Anyone know another way to debug this quest so I can get it done? Just did attempt number 16

Kommentar von 793494

This quest has been giving me nothing but problems, as it seems to do for every one else. I get to the crater and go threw the cut scene where the Neptulon shows up, then it freezes for a minute or two. the NPCs disappear, and if I stick around for a while, the cut scene starts over. Tried swimming out of the area and back but then Every things gone. Tried abandoning and restarting but no dice.

Kommentar von 793548

If anyone can help?

I get to the sequence where the big Neptulon guy is facing the naga girl. Then it cuts back into play and i sit there on the ledge looking at both of them and nothing happens? I tried swimming to the shimmering expanse and back but that causes the quest to stop. when i get back all the fighting is gone and nothing is there any more. Im not sure how to complete this quest. I have tried it multiple times and I get the same thing every time.

I get past the sub sequence and the fighting the naga but when Neptulon and the main naga girl face eachother it just hangs there.

Any ideas?

Kommentar von Pidd

I deleted the contents of my WoW cache and then disabled all my addons and it finally worked without a problem.

Kommentar von Pwincess

I've tried all methods of swimming to the other areas, relogging, and not fighting anything and still can't get it to work. It seems pretty random with all the various methods of "fixing" it, so perhaps it's just an error in changing between the different phases and people more or less just get lucky with it clicking over to the next scene? Which in that case perhaps it's just persistence and/or luck paying off until Blizz goes code-hunting.

Edit: After just wading in the water typing this post, the last scene started over again, perhaps it has a re-correcting feature if there's an error in the phases... Another edit to come if/when this works or not.

Edit 2: My current phase exited once more, both the first time and this time another player was beside me when it stopped, so maybe the error has something to do about multiple people being in the same phase or starting the quest in general... Going to wade in place a bit longer to see if it will restart again and perhaps (hopefully?) continue. Another update if/when it works and what solution, if any, there was.

Edit 3: While not really an update to fixing it, the same scene continues to replay after however-many-minutes elapse. It is right before Neptulon appears when your group swims to a rock and Lady Naz'jar and goons appear. So far it has replayed about 5 times with no luck in continuing past the same point. :(

Kommentar von 794553

Ok, after multiple, unsuccessful attempts and frustration at this last quest.....I finally got it!

I clicked on the quest starter shaman, then didn't touch a thing....checked FB account, did a few emails, and when the cut scenes ended I was standing right in front of the turn-in spot. The "defending the rift" came up 1/1" and I was able to turn in and get the achievement.

So, give it one more try! Good luck!

Kommentar von Looterk

They've finally fixed it, atleast for me it's now working fine.

Kommentar von Talfen

I can confirm this as well. I just completed it on Fenris, Horde-side obviously. It took a minute for the actual dialogue to kick in, but I just kept going from viewport to viewport and it eventually started going.

Kommentar von DarthMedivh

Still bugging around, on Baelgun US, from 7:30pm PST to 8:30pm PST. I'm just done with the damn thing....

Kommentar von Harickein

I solve "invisible" Neptulon problem with changing distance (in settings) to ultra.
P.s Sorry for my bad english. I'm from Russia :D

Kommentar von HANKERIN

Got it to work. Damm Blizzard and the GM,s.

After my ten hour try.
I lowered my graphics to minimum. Through the wow video interface.
I logged on at in off hour.
Still is crap. 4months problem. They say we workin on it. (4months).

Kommentar von 796345

I still dont get it. I have tried everything and still after the cinematic the NPCs in submarine just disappear after few seconds. I can actually say that i have tried everything. Any ideas?

Kommentar von 796474

done all mentioned above - nothing worked.
wrote to GM - he completed this quest for me.
So if u have this quest bugged - simply submit a ticket.

gl hf...

Kommentar von 106982

March 1, 2011 ... still broke, wtf!

Good bye WoW, Hello Rift.

Kommentar von 794344

I put in a ticket and waited a week to do this quest and it worked....apparently some of the cinematic wasn't playing either.

Kommentar von 797889

Didn't work for me either. I tried twice, then I put in a GM ticket and they told me the issue was known and that they were working on a fix. I decided to try playing through one more time but on my wife's iMac, then it worked fine.

Kommentar von 146786

I *think* there are a few different problems with this quest which can be grouped into

a) phasing problems - sequence doesn't start properly or NPCs are missing, etc. These can normally be fixed by swimming away & back / logging out and in / abandoning & restarting.
b) more serious issues where the sequence just 'stops' halfway. In my case it would stop after "...welcome the might Tidehunter to Azeroth!" and "Die, worm!" then the camera would just slowly pan away and...nothing.

I tried all the tricks in these comments over 2 days but it's fairly clear that (b) is something to do with the server because the only thing that genuinely works is to try it again after a server reboot. Today the first attempt bugged out right at the start (phasing issues?) so I re-logged. After that I completed it by just doing it normally (server rebooted this morning for maintenance)

Kommentar von Sercease

Tried everything listed to get this quest to work, nothing helped. Left it for couple weeks and tried this morning. Didn't touch any of the mobs and just let the whole thing play out and it worked. Not sure if it got fixed or just got lucky. Used to get stuck on the long pan and then no NPC's part like everyone else.

Kommentar von 1624

Took a sub ride, but nothing happened besides the ride (no NPC talking). Then we exited, and the shaman wasn't there to fight. Went to the adjacent zone, then went back to the quest giver. Took another sub ride, but this time everyone worked.

Kommentar von 803682

Ok, I got through the quest fine. Didn't bug out or 'phase shift' me at all but there wasn't anyone else (i could see) doing the quest. The problem I have Is just after the hand-in, Nazgrim says he is going down the abyss and to quote "if I am the Undead I say I am I will follow him down" As an aussie I could not resist that =) But when I get down there Nazgrim is not in sight and there is only the NPC to send me back up to the top side.

Is this how the quest ends? It seems there is no follow on quest or anything after that point or have I done something wrong?

Kommentar von funnyguy123

quest was bugged for me and the cutscene when neptulon appears didnt play properly and didnt finish

but as of the patch on march 15 its working fine now

Kommentar von 772214

Ok, after reading all this and going out there and back and dropping the quest and picking it back up, what you do is you talk to him saying your ready and then the event will start.

Kommentar von 291365

Date is 24 March 2011. Patch level is 4.0.6.

I turn off all add-ons, clear WoW cache completely, start the cinematic and it freezes on a blank screen with the interior of Tenebrous Cavern showing and a beeping sound in the background.

The cinematic never moves - I let it stay frozen for up to 30 minutes with no changes. I run WoW in Windowed mode, so the only way out for me is to Alt-F4 kill WoW and restart.

They've got a new bug mode, and this quest is not working at all for Horde side on Suramar.

Kommentar von 658804

I had tried this quest twice, to no avail due to the broken cinematic. Opening a GM ticket, it seems that if the GM teleports you out (for me, to Durotar) and then back to the cave, the phasing is fixed. After I was teleported back, the cinematic played fine. If you can't get a GM to assist you, I found that logging out on the broken cinematic, then logging in, abandoning the quest, logging out and in again will phase you back into the way the cave was before you grabbed the quest.

Kommentar von 823661

I could have really used a guide for this quest to illustrate each step, so I made an account here to help others who think like I do. Just to reiterate, the quest I'm speaking of is Verteidigung des Abgrunds for the achievement 20.000 Meilen unter dem Meer. I suggest turning view distance up if you can, the cutscenes look pretty neat. Technically no actions need to be "done" for this quest - it's fully possible to sit through and watch while it completes by itself.

Part One:
After the quest is accepted, a cutscene begins upon the submarine used in an earlier quest. There are usable machines on either side of the bridge area against the walls that allow for seeing what's currently happening outside. After a dialogue, the step ends.

Part two:
This step starts with another cutscene, with some dialogue from naga. When it's over there are some to slay, along with dialogue (of course). The dialogue suggests moving, but it's not required. However, be warned there is an attacking level 81 Elite naga, but he doesn't stick around long. There are two waves to this step, until everyone becomes frozen and there's some dialogue.

Part three:
A third cutscene plays, and at the end, the quest is finished and the NPC is there on the cliff available to turn in the quest and provide the achievement.

This information was compiled by 5 attempts on the same character before quest completion. Hope this helps someone. (:

Kommentar von 571559

This is still broken for me. No NPCs in the sub.

Kommentar von 831630

THIS QUEST WILL NOT WORK IF:

-- If you have any combat pets out
-- If you have any non-combat pets out
-- If you mount at any point
-- If you interact with the naga except for healing yourself when necessary (they are bound to hit you at some point)

Additionally, when I eventually made it work I was targeting Lady Naz'jar right from her entrance until her disappearance. I don't know whether this contributed to my success or not.

Kommentar von Zuljid

Legionnaire Nazgrim says: We waste our time here just floating about...

Truer words were never spoken. Worst quest ever ¬¬

Kommentar von ronjaye

No amount of any of the various recommendations in this thread allowed me to get past the part where the NPCs disappeared from the sub and I got the Breath bar.

Had to finally submit a GM ticket and resolved it that way.

Don't waste your time trying 10 different combinations of swimming here, relogging here, or hearthing here..... just submit a ticket - I had a response within 10 minutes and problem solved about 5 minutes later.

Kommentar von kawaknaller

It is stilled bugged.
After trying it twice I contacted a GM and , I must say, I was surprised and happy to see how quick they responded. He completed the quest, I logged out (to get phased) and now I could hand it in.

Kommentar von mwratclif

Not sure if this will help anyone, however; I was stuck for quests for "Sinking into Vashj'ir" for a long time. Decided I would just keep looking until I found something. I reacquired some quests from "Promontory Point" (42, 37) I'll see where I go from here :-) Hope this helps someone .....

OK an update :-) I did the quest line from the above mentioned NPCs and that unlocked "Defending the Rift" for me. Hope it helps...

Kommentar von joss002

I had the "drowning" problem on the sub,i tried all of the above,rebooted pc,cleared cookies etc etc lol and still couldnt get the quest to work grrrrr....

So i submitted a ticket,my 1st ever,20 minutes later a GM contacted me,told me to accept the quest but dont talk to Erunak,teleported me to just outside Org,the quest was complete,then teleported me to Nazgrim to hand it in and got the 20,000 leagues Achievement.

It took around 25minutes from submitting the ticket to handing the quest in,id say thats pretty quick on a saturday afternoon at 4pm.

So dont do like i did and spend hours trying over and over to do a bugged quest,sticking pins in the Blizzard voodoo doll and screaming 4 letter words at it lol,its a huge game and these things happen.

Well done Blizz :o)

Kommentar von jenothefox

turn off ALL add, relog, re-accept the quest
if you are hunter dismiss your pet
don't fight at all
and this works for me in 4.2 :)

Kommentar von datgrl

It may seem like you are stuck but look at your coords... they should be changing as if you are traveling. A dialog will start w/the NPC's on the boat. Just hang tight.

Kommentar von Ozrek

Still bugged. NPC despawn issue here. Probably related to phasing. 2 hours later, still no ticket response.

Kommentar von 690412

This quest is so bugged it isn't even funny. At first I had it lead to the first cutscene of the submarine, then have the NPCs despawn inside and make me start drowning. Gave up and came back later. Cutscene attempted to play, but instead the camera zoomed in on the mainland inside Tenebrous Cavern while the submarine kept making noises. It did not end.

Now, the cutscene will play, but the submarine despawns (?) and the camera continues to pan, and when it's over, the NPCs despawn again. As much as I'd like to relive the conclusion of my favorite Cata zone, I'm giving this up.

Kommentar von 853113

On realm Mal'Ganis, a GM named Hisurrin and I had a discussion on this.

For this quest:
1) I died in the ship because i ran "out" of air
2) I couldnt ressurect without getting sickness because my body was constantly "moving"

So..
-I ressurected with sickness.
-Made a ticket complaining about this quest.

result:
-usual VIP treatment
-he/she made me told me to go on my alt and wait.
-After 2-3 minutes he/she told me to go back on.
-Got auto-complete.

Downside:
-missed out the battle
-wasted 10 minutes
-wasted 60gold for repair.

Kommentar von 859467

Only thing you have to do is re-talk to the guy who gave you the quest. That's it.

Kommentar von jtbalogh

Regarding waiting in the sub and taking a long time to land and get out. I noticed Blizz making me watch the cinematics one player at a time when more than one player is on the quest. Maybe Blizz added a player limit in the zone. For example,

My toon was going through the cinematics and phases okay.

A friend of mine doing the same quest at the same time was on the sub and waited and waited. My friend enjoyed listening to the dialog of goblins on the sub, but why have to wait? I glanced at his computer and wondered why too.

When my toon was done and the quest completed, my friend's sub immediately landed and he was able to proceed with the rest of the cinematics.

Kommentar von 875515

Bugged as of 2011/08/25. The initial cut scene starts and when it shows your 'toon inside the sub and the NPC's start to talk, they fade out and your "breath" bar appears above your 'toons head.

If you abandon the quest you end up back in Tenebrous Cavern where you can pick it up again. I tried methods below: clear cache, log out and back in, even restarted the game to no avail.

Opened ticket, and after 3hr got back an acknowledgement from Blizz support saying gosh they know it's bugged, but support had completed it for me, all I had to do was go out to the vortex and find Nazgrim and turn it in. At least that part worked fine. Turned in, got reward and achieve, leaped after Nazgrim into Vortex, everything works.

Kommentar von Warrok

This could have been one of the most awesome quests in all of WoW (it's more of a cinematic anyways). However, it became more of a display of the limitation of WoWs engine for such ingame cinematics and a ton of bugs.

Kommentar von 446310

What are the prerequisites for this quest?

Kommentar von jaxsonbateman

Freaking useless quest. Started the quest, and like others, the NPCs disappeared shortly after the cinematic ended. However, I did not have the Sea Legs buff on the sub, and was considered underwater - which meant after 3 minutes of trying to figure out what to do, my character croaked.

Of course, the useless part was that due to phasing issues, I couldn't res at my body, as it kept jumping all over the map. So I had to wear a 30g repair fee due to bad design.

Kommentar von asdkafjd

Basically the completion of all quests in Vashj'ir.

Kommentar von 157305

Here's the response i got from the gm about this bug.

"Your hardware is chocking on the network traffic causing a known issue to occur with that scripted event."

"Basicly the game is able to adjust its load times based on the needs of the machine, unfortunately its a cut scene it's all predetermined in its space and so choke here can result in things like enviroments not loading fast enough."

Was told to check drivers and drop graphics down (even though their on ultra)

Seems a terrible reason, especially if i can manage Skyrim on ultra. Crazy eh.

Kommentar von 878720

Well I can't get all the way to the end fine but when the battle is over nazgrim is just standing there with a grey question mark and I haven't completed the quest to turn in. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Kommentar von 344501

I tried many times to complete this very easy quest but, the NPC's would appear, vanish, appear, vanish, say a couple lines then vanish again. One night I made it through the whole story and the ? appeared on Nazgrim but it was white ;(

Tonight the quest finally went through to completion without any glitches.

Friends, I think it's fixed.

Kommentar von Brilynn

Blizzard definitely knows about this problem. Vashj'ir quest chain has a number of bugs and this a a big one. When I went into the sub all the NPCs disappeared, I got a breath bar (reload ui got rid of that at least) and then I nearly died from damage from... ghosts? At that point a sent in a ticket about it and asked for help.
I didn't get to see the cinematic but blizzard did mark the quest as done for me so I could at least turn it in for the credit. Free quest, thanks

Kommentar von 897803

I JUST FINISHED THIS QUEST ALL I DID WAS EXCEPT THE QUEST LIKE SOME OF THE OTHER COMMENTS , I DID USE THE REMOTE VIEWING PORTALS TO LOOK OUTSIDE WHEN EVERYONE WAS OUT SIDE THE SUB READY TO FIGHT I JUST KINDA FOLLOWED THE GROUP DID NOT ATTACK ANYTHING JUST KINDA RAN IN A CIRCLE AND TRIED NOT TO GET KILLED BUT DID NOT ATTACK ANYTHING AND NEPTUNE FIGHT HAPPENED AND FINISHED NO ISSUES JUST STAYED BACK ALITTLE FROM ERUNAK FOR WHOLE BATTLE SO BASICLY KEEP A LITTLE DISTANCE FROM ERUNAK DONT DIE DONT ATTACK ONLY THING I CAN OFFER

Kommentar von 139736

As of 1/12/2012

Got to this quest tonight on my Horde toon.

Upon talking to Erunak, I am taken to a cutscene showing the door of the cavern. There is no submarine, no NPC's, nothing. I hear the "beep" of the submarine's radar and that's it. I've relogged and waited a few minutes before logging back in. Still no luck and the same issues.

Looks like no 20k league achievement for me until they get this fixed.

Kommentar von 934287

From the sound of things i must have got very lucky as nothing despawned on me and the quest worked beautifully, and after reading all the comments before i was kinda worried.

Quest was still bugged, as it seems to be for a lot of players. I did it easily with my main character, but wasn't able to complete with 2nd one.

Just opened a ticket to a GM, they solved the problem while i was offline completing the quest for me.

Got my reward, my gold and my exp :)

Kommentar von popswiss

For those of you who have completed the quest but are unable to see the quest giver, my solution was to stay right where I was and simply type /target captain . It will target him and you will now be able to see him. Hope this helps.

Kommentar von 116179

Quest was bugged for me as well. The turn-in never appeared, and the quest never gave me credit, even though I saw all the cutscenes.

Out of a force of habit, I immediately trinketed out of the freeze as soon as it hit me, and I think that may of bugged it.

I abandoned the quest after several minutes of waiting, and two relogs, and then I tried omerc10696's way, I went afk (But watched the proceedings) as soon as I told Erunak I was ready. Worked just fine. After about 15-20 minutes my character was standing next to the turn-in, with the quest completed.

Kommentar von huldu

This quest bugs out a lot. Best part is if it fails you have to redo it again which takes 15+ minutes. So many things can go wrong in the "roleplay" cinematic it's ridiculous.

At least they could add a skip option...

Kommentar von tetera

Managed to complete the quest right after disabling all addons. So there's probably an addon problem.

Kommentar von 998485

I still cannot complete this quest. Its been 2+ days and This sucks I tried all of the suggestions on these here comments and still Not completing for me.

I have contacted blizzard 2 time and they tell me: Blizzard Support does not provide game hints, we feel that you may be able to find the answer you're looking for on one of our official fan sites: www.wowhead.com/cata www.wowpedia.org, and Your fellow players - many players have had or asked the same questions you have. It feels like beating my head against a wall.

Blizzard PLEASE I AM BEGGING FIX THIS!

Kommentar von Jeolene

So, I came here after being "bugged" by the invisible NPC, which is odd because I remember it being fine when Cata came out (shows how long it's been since I've done this :P). I followed the advice below and tried the '/target captain', but still didn't find him.

One thing I suggest is that you make a macro of this and set it on your bar, once I did that and tapped it, he showed right up.

Hope this helps with yet another glitch of frustration :D

Kommentar von mooninites7

As of August 15, 2012 this quest is still incredibly bugged, I had to drop the quest three times due to bugs (one from the submarine; twice from the battle) before I messaged a GM who completed it for me after some discussion. If you choose to go this route it seems the GM will be reluctant to complete the quest for you, but if you describe the multiple bug problems, the multiple times you've tried the encounter and the fact that it has been bugged since the beginning of Cataclysm they might give it to you. Hope this helps

Kommentar von cameronangelle

As of August 21, 2012 it is no longer bugged it seems. I did it once and it went perfectly. Pretty awesome cinematic quest if you can finish it with no problems.

Kommentar von slythwolf

Accepted this quest and spoke to Erunak, it disconnected me.

Logged back in, I was on the submarine with no indication of what I should do.

Tried multiple of the Remote Viewing Devices on the bridge of the submarine. This eventually played the cinematic and dumped me into the battle sequence. At this point I was finally able to complete the quest.

So I just got bugged out on this quest in Cata Classic. I crashed during the sub-ride and something got really broken. I watched all the cutscenes, did all the things and couldn't finish the quest at the end (people around me were all completing it, but I couldn't).

So if you crash out... Abandon and restart (this will port you out, don't worry). Make sure you stay with Nazgrim.

Its a long-ass RP to get through, but whatever. It's the story finale for this zone.

If the cinematic fails, disable all of your addons and try again. I had one that was skipping cinematics and it bugged out the whole thing.
