Description: http://www.wowhead.com/quest=12778/the-scarlet-apocalypse

Current behaviour: Lich King cannot be seen in deaths reach. Quest mark is present on the minimal though.

Expected behaviour:

Lich King is present and can be interacted with.

Steps to reproduce the problem:

Accept the quest from Migraine. Fly down from the hold to deaths Breach. Walk to where the quest marker “?” is on the minimap. He is not there. Only a bunch of skeleton archers.

It was fixed on 3.3.5 https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/issues/16330 maybe just need cherry pick.

Killyana: delighted to hear this can be fixed. Can you please kindly explainwhat “cherry pick” is, and how it works? Thanks!

Some commits from 3.3.5 must be ported to master branch.

Hey guys, I did a bit of hack fixing to fix this issue: changed the phaseid of Lich King from 0 to 169, in world.creature, and he appeared.

For those who are interested, the Lich King Id in wold.creature is found by looking up the questid in world.queststarter.

Where as the phaseid 169 was referring to another creature which is spawned at the time.

But I have a question now: how do I determine the current phaseid of the quest I am in?

You see, I actualy want to know a bit about how phasing data, and the scene system is kept in the database

Thanks

It will be fixed by https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/pull/22892 as the gob will be loaded on the client before the npc.

This is still an issue. A workaround that sometimes works is to drop the quest and re-accept. But the Lich King's presence is inconsistent at best.

I experienced this problem with a TrinityCore download in July 2022. The real issue is that the Lich King is standing down inside the platform instead of on top of it.

Move him to the top.

Verified that in creature_template, his entry is 29110.

SELECT * FROM creature_template WHERE entry=29110;

Yep, it's him. So moved his creature instance to the top of the platform.

UPDATE creature SET position_z=161.149261 WHERE id=29110;
