The Darkened Sea progression task, Loyal is the Heart, in Caverns of Endless Song has a bugged mob/step. The second step: Defeat the siren that stole Dagda's sword in the coral formation 0/1 (Caverns of Endless Song) is bugged. The mob "a sword thief" health locks at 10% without updating the task and doesn't de-pop but instead just wanders around the area. The other steps can be completed in the task but not #2 effectively stopping further progression in TDS expansion.
PS - Tried killing her in the coral where she is located, to no avail, and tried pulling her to various spots outside her coral spot and nothing worked.
The Sword Thief is meant to be leashed to her room so killing her on the spot is required, if she is moved out of her room she can bug & you will need to allow her to path back to her spawn spot & fully regen/reset.
Yes, as mentioned in the second post (the edit time on the first post had expired so had to make the second one) we tried killing her in the coral room where she spawns several times and she health locks at 10% but doesn't give her dialogue/update the task/depop. We then tried pulling her out of the room a few times and that didn't work. She must also have a very large leash because she pathed around the area quite a bit which brought all the mobs in the area. After we killed all the adds we left to other areas of the zone and mobs would periodically appear and disappear from the extended target window so we knew the sword thief was still wandering around. We also tried dropping and re-getting the task a few times but the sword thief still bugged out. We also tried logging out and back in a few times to no avail. FYI - We are on the Tunare-Seventh Hammer server
OK, always one to try variations....finally got the quest to update. Scenario - all failed attempts were done with pet and spell damage only. A sword thief would always health lock at 10% and never update the task. Success ( on 2 different toons) was only achieved by doing melee damage. It is fun to watch a mage and necro melee, plenty of time to go get coffee and a snack. So I think "a sword thief" is still bugged...you should be able to do spell/pet damage and get the update but a workaround of doing melee damage will update it. Thanks all
