help!

I had the same problem today and almost gave up. I ended up finding it nestled between 3 trees(they look much like a clump of trees growing together irl would look like) near some ruins. Iirc, they were slightly south of the ruins, but I'm at work, so I can't check right now.

To get a screech, do I need to enter Dreamway and it emotes or do I need to lounge around Dreamway until it happens?

[-aiko-]

^Screeches should happen shortly after you enter the Dreamway. If you haven't gotten one for a few minutes you probably won't get one today.

I'm really annoyed that it was supposedly bugged. I've clicked a stone in every area, some twice, but since the Tuesday reset I've only received one screech. I'd have the damn skin by now if it wasn't broke.

You click the stones everytime you get a screech until Ela'lothen appears in the Dreamway. That is all.



Only around the portal, but it's quite a wide radius.

this is what im confused about, which stones. i entered the portal and went to 2 of the locations i dont see any stones (im sitting on a shitty laptop, where i'm actually getting a whole new pc tomorrow) so might have missed it with low quality.


are the stones 1 random place of all above locations or?

Slight correction in that it only triggers between the port in spawn, and the bridge leading to the class hall. So no stepping in from the classhall to check, you need to cross over the bridge into the middle of the Dreamway for it to trigger.

My Duskwood flag is staying true today when I got it yesterday. Just got Feralas today, both showing true now. Fingers crossed.

Lucky, I just ran the scripts again checking the dump log, the only thing that is true is the daily Dreamway event quest being completed, all others tag as false on completion.

Already opened a ticket and sent a bug report, so maybe I can hear back about this.

Hidden artifact skin already found and the process explained, check WowHead for the full guide.
Copy and paste this link, it will take you to my post in wowhead explaining how to get it. (I cant post links yet)

Did you hit a stone yesterday? I found I had to hit my stone twice that day for it to stay true, methinks it's still just buggy in other ways now.

Since the fix of Tuesday all previous progress on the skin was cleared with the bug. You have to touch all three stones again.

AK 4. Screech 2. Hinterlands.

I just checked the dumps. Its showing true for both Hinterlands (today) and Duskwood (yesterday).

I haven't, not getting screeches but on a hunch I went around all three zones and there are no stones to click on.

[Lucetia]

Your stone was not gone. It's still there, and you can probably go back and check later. Some of the stones are very well hidden, but trust me, there will always be one. Just keep flying around the general portal vicinity until you find it.

On a related note, we need to start brainstorming what to do AFTER touching the stone. None of us could figure it out on beta, and we all just kind of assumed that we had to find and click many stones over the course of several days/weeks. That still might be the case, but it's worth investigating more. The emote when we click a stone says that you hear something dart away behind you, and then nothing. The buff itself has a tooltip that says you're filled with some sort of power, but the buff only lasts 20 seconds.

I didn't try it on beta, but can someone try teleporting to the Dreamway immediately after clicking a stone? Perhaps the Wild God darts away behind us back into the portal, through the Dreamway, and into a different zone? Maybe we need to make it back to the Dreamway with the buff still on us? I dunno, it's worth a shot, but my roll didn't yield a screech for me today to test.

From what I read you get 3 screeches and on the 3rd the mob spawns. So far I gotten 2, just waiting on a 3rd. Feralas and Duskwood both.

I had to hit my stone twice yesterday as well.

[Daan]

A new day and still no screech.

[stormgust]

Ak 6 now - still a total of zero screeches. Still going to say, that the roll is bugged, as others seem to get them daily.

[Deleted]

Never checked for screeches before, found the talks about the skin yesterday, when reaching ak6, had no screech yesterday but today, went to duskwood, found the stone clicked it once and it disappeared with the dart msg in chat. Don't know if this helps you guys anyways wanted to share that the screech still seems to work.

Just received a response to my ticket:

I've been having a look into this for you, and there are currently no bugs with this hidden appeance. However there is often other requirements to meet before you can earn the hidden appearance. The best thing to do is check WoWhead's guide for it as that will help you a great deal.

I wish I could say more about this, but the hidden appeances are something for the players to discover and the GMs cannot give hints about them

While I understand this is not the outcome you were hoping for I do hope you are able to carry on with no further issues.

If you require anything else please do not hesitate and give us a shout! we are here to help ♥

Strangely enough, I logged on after reading this and instantly received a screech in Duskwood. I haven't had a single screech in 9 days.

But yeah, GM says there are no bugs going on with it currently, guys, so hopefully you should receive your screeches soon.

Could be that the actual proc rate is quite low, and it has some fail-safe built in, which can bug out (just like for the legendaries). Would explain consecutive days for a lot of people (namely those who got lucky on their first screech, and then had the protection bug out), and those without.

An extreme aggregation of consecutive days of screeches with simultaneously having aggregation of the opposite, i.e. several days in succession without screeches, does not indicate a Binomial distribution (and as the daily roll should be bernoulli, that is what you'd expect).

But yeah, GM says there are no bugs going on with it currently, guys, so hopefully you should receive your screeches soon.

Your typical GM only knows about more prominent bugs currently being investigated (or existing). GM's gave a similar statement when pointing out that the stone clicking progress resets daily, which as we now know, was a bug.

[Valqt]

Considering there have been a lot of people complaining about lack of screeches and thus creating tickets about it, I would assume the GMs would know if there was an actual bug or not. As a QA Tester myself, it would not make sense for them not to know this.

Source? Just curious as I have not seen this myself.

They would know about reports, they won't know about it being a bug prior to QA confirming it (and this would require several reports, otherwise it could be stuck at low priority). And depending on the nature of the bug, that could take a while.

No source for a GM specifically (I talked to one, and he said, If I think it's a bug, I should report it), but we had a CM confirm two weeks ago, that all hidden appereances are obtainable and functioning correctly. CM's/GM's usually have the same knowledge about bugs though.
