UPDATE: Reports are coming in that the Shadowy Figure can spawn anywhere - not just in Desolace. Kill mobs around the world and eventually she will come. CORRECTION: The crafting reagents needed by other professions do not come from Ziri's Mystery Box. They come from cleaning the Grime-Encrusted Salvage by using the Salvagematic after you complete the quest.
I have killed about 50-60 demons in about 30 min and the figure spawned 10 min ago for me. but people around the area told me they were there for hours(6 even) and still nothing. It definitely works, but it`s kinda shit it seems @@Kratormode
I got my shadowy figure spawned from third mob, lucky I guess. And btw I killed same mobs that drops the Voidcore (Hatecrest Screamer). So I can 100% confirm other mobs can spawn it too.
@@Rautaneito69 I can confirm it drops anywhere. I got the spent voidcore on the 5th naga kill and the shadowy figure on the SECOND naga kill right after the core drop rofl. So 7 kills to get the 2 items. Luck was finally on my side.
Also if you are like me and didn't click the salvage machine during the raid and wanted to start the quest but the raid has been reset, you can actually Shadowstep to an enemy behind the electric "fence" and just vanish right after and get inside to do the quest. Mage can also blink it and apparently you can just walk out from the inside so you don't have to Shadowstep out.
A small correction: you don‘t have to go to Desolace for the Shadowy figure. For me it spawned on Feathermoon island killing the wolves between the Naga in the south and the stronghold.
yeah spending countless hours looking up guides on every little thing just to play the game,not to mention you just watched someone else do a it so ruining the experiencing for the first time.good thing i don't have a mount and have to look up flight paths,the ABSOLUTE best part is 95% of this is just walking,like ACTAULLY walking i just walk from one place to another none stop looking it all up SO FUN!
why are u doing the expensive profession crafted items less than a week into the phase if u still haven't bought a mount yet? everything will go down in price, bit the mount price will stay the same.@@nickcody7092
yes awesome to have 3 times an invisbile shadowy figure that everyone around you can loot the item and you not. great game design that the npc you farming for is invisible for some people and despawns fast
BE CAREFUL, if you somehow are in combat when Scooty teleports you to ferelas, it will activate guardians and punt kick you really far off and kill you. I had this happen because I took the port while in combat in BB because of chaotic pvp going on there.
I was killing demon for 2.5 hours, still cant see the figurine. 2 others in party got it in the first 5 mins, i abandoned the quest and killed more of them still nothing
The ending makes me smile every time “I hope you’re having fun in phase 2 of season of discovery, I know I am” nice to see this man happy :) nice to see anyone happy tbh
The mobs need to be GREEN at least to get shadowy figure. So please dont farm grey mobs. I just spend killing over 100 demons in desolace dude, seriously.
I did this quest. it was like an hour and 30 minutes of just walking/flying/boating. Not counting the time spent getting mats. What the heck man. Also hot tip way late: there is a teleporter to and from the engineer at the bottom of the pillar so you dont have to go back to booty and teleport back, could save you like 10-15 mins, who am i kidding we dont value our time, do we? I dont know anymore man.
i was farming demons in desolace for more like 2,5h and was absolute fucked up about it. searched on the net for any buggs on that q. deleteted the cache file in wow folder and relogged. got dropp after 3-4 mobs.....maybe this comment helps someone.
If you are trying to get shadowy figure to spawn, I had better luck with her spawning in the same area you kill the nagas to get the spent void crystal
Seems that way. having the same issue. I even went and agro'd alarm-o-bots in my instance and killed them, but of course they drop nothing. Thanks blizzard.
I think you can enter the raid and find Alarma bots (DONT KILL) let the Alarma bot spawn his Mechaical friends and maybe they will drop Keep me updated if you get loot I can confirm they spawn. cant solo kill 2 tho
is "alot of demons" 3.5 hours of farming them non-stop with no competition? I deleted cache, didn't do nothing. I then removed all add-ons, restarted launcher+game and in about 10-15 mob kills I had it. I also did /reload inbetween each mob. Prior to that I guess I might have killed closer to 500 mobs.
spent void core and shadow figure look to drop and appear a lot quicker. Naga sorcress on the southern island were better when I did it as the north island was being farmed by alliance. Probably took about 8 kills. Shadow figure I got after 2nd kill on a succubus.
For those doing triangulation: The Ferelas isle of dread one you can actually run with your mount down the west side with no problems, no mobs there, need to swim. Make sure to utilize death res's to maximize your time and distance traveled if you are alliance or possibly horde.
Is there any profession level required to start and/or progress the questline? Or can you do the questline regardless of your professions and only level up the necessary profession after getting access to the recipes?
The real kicker is all the mats you need but can’t make yourself cus it’s from other professions. Yeah sure I now need to fork out at least 100g for gniodine and glowing leather for my cloth piece lol
ive been in groups for hours and the damn figure spawned 5 times and i cant see it nor can i speak to it i killed the nagas for the [Spent Voidcore] and yet i cant freaking get the figure this tilts me for real
For any one struggling the Shadow Figure doesnt spawn, all i did i killed some mobs then relogged and checked the buddys again and i saw it in one of them,
someone said in comments that if you disable all your addons it spawns so i did that and killed 3 mobs and got it thanks for that comment spent too long here.
Just got the shadowy figure to show up after killing a horde player. Was in hinterlands farming the trolls and after killing a horde mage it showed up on his body.
@yeti1989 - From Sarthes video he gets all credit - THIS WORKED FOR ME 3 kills after deleting Cache it worked 8 hours ago (edited) If you had spent ages farming demons to get Shadowy Figure to spawn with no luck, delete the Cache folder contents in World of Warcraft\_classic_era_ directory, there is a bug where you can't see the shadowy figure even if it spawns. I farmed the demons for 2 hours, then deleted the cache folder, 5 min later I had it spawn
