Two days in a row, I and a friend of mine have both been unable to complete the shared task "This Can't be Good," given by Hurble in East Wastes: Zeixshi-Kar's Awakening. The books surrounding the blimp are not dropping the needed quest item (glowing pages). Between us we have made five attempts, killing twenty mobs with not a single quest drop. This started yesterday, 2/17, after patch. We are both playing on Bristlebane server.
I have similarly had no luck getting a Glowing Page to drop. Cleared all the books through three cycles on Wednesday, another clearing on Thursday, and another today (Friday). This also started for me after the patch. I don't know if it's this quest alone or other quests similarly effected. I'm on Bristlebane as well.
Yup confirmed. Bristlebane, 2/23/21 and 2/24/21. Killed all "an animated spell book" 6 times, therefore about 72 mobs, not one drop. For easy dev reference: this isn't dropping from these any more, when working on this quest.
