A Firm Response: Belathaan and the Living Storms

September 24 notes: a quest-credit fix

Blizzard’s September 24 beta notes say A Firm Response no longer fails to grant credit to players. The September 18–21 reports below predate that published fix.

The note does not identify the cause of every stalled confrontation or establish launch behavior. We have not independently completed the quest in game.

If the confrontation stalls

Early beta reports describe Belathaan saying one line without starting the encounter. If that still happens when play resumes, keep the quest in your log and report the stalled step with your faction, class and client build. Distinguish an event that never starts from a completed objective that gives no credit; repeatedly abandoning the quest is not a verified fix.

Earlier layer reports: mixed results

September 18–21 player reports describe mixed results from changing layers or joining a party. One player completed the event on a layer where the enemies were not already present; others stayed stuck.

Another player received credit when someone else started the confrontation. If you try either option, check both objectives afterward. These older reports do not establish whether the event is fixed in your current client.

A portal is not quest credit

The alternate route to Ayessa Dawnsinger shared by players let them see later events and reach a portal, but left this quest incomplete. Check the confrontation and Living Storms objectives rather than treating the portal as a shortcut to completion.
