The Hallow’s End event has had his dungeon encounter updated. You can now increase the difficulty of the encounter by speaking to the Wicker men at the dungeon’s entrance to enable extra mechanics. These curses are not party wide and afflict only those who enable them. Simply speak to all 4 Wicker Men (to enable new event dungeon hard-mode) defeat the boss and get your achievement. Good Luck everyone...

Very underwhelming, mechanics appear to do no damage or actually function.

Boss has 22m hp and can practically be killed in Bloodlust if you happen to have someone with you.

I guess one positive is that he no longer chucks his head about! Must have found some killer paracetamol

I talked to the big wickerman, got the 4 buffs. Killed the Headless Horseman and get no achievement. Then i talked to the 4 little wickermen, got the buffs. Killed the Headless Horsemand and again got no achievement. This was done on my 2nd and 3th kill on the same toon.

Commento di MorgrainX

Seems bugged. I talked to the four wickermen, got the 4 debuffs, we killed the boss, but no achievement.

Edit: did it on three chars, ALSO made sure that in one run EVERYONE had the 4 debuffs. Still no achievement.

Blizz, where is your QA? Stop releasing features that are broken.

PS: thanks Blizz for giving my warlock a soul bound epic plate helmet with a cool function that I cannot use because it's not account bound.

Edit 2: Found a solution for the achievement.

1. Click on the big guy in the middle and then activate all curses via his dialogue options.
2. DO NOT talk to any of the smaller wickers
3. make sure to NOT get hit by his abilities
4. make sure to kill your ghost copy when it spawns, before reaching him
5. When you are linked to a circle on the ground, run there before it explodes
6. kill the adds (we're not sure if this is necessary, but to be sure just cleave them)

Those things can - for some reason - bug the achievement (at least that's the way we could get the achievement to work). In that run that worked we had three people with the debuffs, two people without the debuffs.

The scaling with lower levels is very strange on this boss. Had a lvl 20 holy priest pull 600k dps on that boss, the thing just melted before any mechanics were introduced. Might be something to look at if you're having issues getting the achievement. It is individual, so just avoid getting hit by any abilities.

Commento di MotherOfDanbo

Urgh, went into this all excited - another achievement under my belt. ..... NOPE. Please fix it quickly Blizzard, don't leave us hanging for days again.

Commento di NissaR

Just got it now. 12.27pm Central. Clicked all 4 at the start. Don't know why it appears bugged for some. I clicked all 4, said Yes I accept the curse. Not even a geared toon really, my second kill of the day, wasn't sure how to do it when I ran my first toon, my main 10 mins prior.

Commento di ToriaURU

Didn't get this achievement even though I clicked on the large Wickerman statue and said activate all 4 curses? But my guildmate did get the acheivement in the same dungeon group.

Commento di sarahlogic

I clicked the larger central ominous wickerman to accept all curses (rather than each individual wickerman). During the encounter, I dodged the purple swirlies, purple circles, fire breath, and fire pools, killed/CCed my add, and ran to the highlighted orb. I got a stack or two of the wicker man's shadow debuff that lowers health by 10% when I failed a mechanic. After completing the encounter, I earned the achievement.

It is easier on a mobile class like a hunter because you will constantly be running to dodge mechanics. I could tell the mechanics were not affecting or visible to anyone else since they were mostly standing still. Avoid standing near all the environmental objects that make it difficult to move freely in all directions.

More info on each curse. You'll be dodging these on top of the regular mechanics:

Wicker Man's Shadow - failing to dodge the curses reduces maximum health by 10% each stack
Wicker Man of Embers - Dodge purple swirlies - Cursed pumpkin breath - cursed targets emit shadowflame blasts around their location and inflict a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow
Wicked Man of Thorns - Move out of purple circle - Cursed vine march - piercing thorns erupt under cursed enemies periodically and inflict a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow
Wicker Man of Delusions - Run to orb with arrow - Cursed hot head - cursed enemies suffer from hallucinations, moving to them dispels them, ignoring them inflicts two stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow
Wicker man of Shadows - CC/Kill add - Cursed insidious cackle - cursed targets shed part of their soul, which is shackled and moves slowly towards shadowy flames. Attack and CC the soul to free it before it reaches the flames to avoid two stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow

*Editing to add: if you don't get the achievement, it's possible you were hit by too many mechanics and lost the curse debuffs when you cheated death via Wicker Man's Protection. If you have raid-style party frames active, you can see the curse debuff and stacks of shadow on each player more easily. It is much easier to fail as a healer/melee class or if more people in the party are affected by the curses.

Commento di Xanthu

WoW this is dumb. You can do it with your eyes closed almost. The abilities do almost no damage and require no effort. Besides the achievement, I received nothing else for this. Really lame overall. Sad

Commento di morticianoire

I did this twice and still no achi :(

Commento di Fzzl

Don't bother clicking all the 4 small strawy boys, someone might start it before you get all 4. Talk to the big lad in the middle and accept all 4 curses. :)

Good luck on your pet/mount hunt.

Commento di SaltLB

The bug has been fixed. I'm leaving it crossed out for historical context.

I figured out the bug.

If you activate the large wicker man (accepting all four curses), then you will get the achievement on kill.

If you activate any small wicker man before talking to the large wicker man, then you will not get the achievement.

Commento di Okonomiyaki

No one has even mentioned this yet.
When you accept the four curses, it specifically says:

"If you would die while cursed, you instead lose all curses and restore health."

If you're not getting the achievement, it's probably because you've lost all the curses before the boss has been killed.
That is what was happening on all my toons.

It's not bugged, you're just maxing out your stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow & losing your 4 curses.

Wicker Man's Shadow
Instant
The Wicker Men delight in the target's suffering, reducing the target's maximum health by 10 per stack.

Cursed Hot Head
200 yd range
Instant
Cursed enemies suffer dark hallucinations manifesting in front of their location.
Moving to the hallucination dispels it.
Ignoring the hallucination inflicts two stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow to the enemy.

Cursed Insidious Cackle
200 yd range
Instant
Insidious Cackle shackles the souls of cursed enemies in fear.
The shackled soul slowly moves towards consuming flames.
Souls that reach the flames before their shackles are destroyed inflict two stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow to the afflicted enemy.

Cursed Vine March
100 yd range
Instant
During Vine March, piercing thorns erupt under cursed enemies periodically.
The thorns inflict a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow.

Cursed Pumpkin Breath
Unlimited range
Instant
During Pumpkin Breath, cursed enemies emit Shadowflame around their location periodically.
Each blast inflicts a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow.

Commento di Bobdoggy

Anyone know what is up with the 50-60 minute queue times on HH? Is it just another fail by blizz or am I missing something. I am guessing the former. lol.

Commento di Thoridann

No reward other than the Achievement points. Lame.

Commento di NukeAlleria

As frustrating as this achievement is, it's worth doing. You are very likely to get the La Chiave Scarlatta to drop in your Zucca Ripiena after completing Kickin' with the Wick. (It might even be guaranteed?)

La Chiave Scarlatta unlocks original Scarlet Monastery dungeons!

Just think of the transmorged outfits you'll get!

Commento di ElviraBanks

It's hard to do at first. I did it on my warrior. You have to move fast to avoid the circles and such. A speed suit is beneficial to avoid losing the buff. I didn't do much for DMG (sorry group) and focused on ducking and dodging. I did get the key. Another thing that hasn't been mentioned this achievement is not account-wide.

Edit: It does get easier after you learn what to do as far as mechanics go. Also, I have increased the amount of DMG I can do and still focus on staying cursed.

Commento di DennisTheGreat

I tried to click the big guy once, then all four. No achievement. Thanks... I guess.. :(

Commento di soneil

Does this actually affect rewards?
Like once you've got the achievement then is there any point in continuing to do 'hard mode'?
Might be nice if it did something like increase my chances of getting the mount after 15 years of it failing to drop.

Commento di EpicPants25682

Seems like if you do this on the group finder, people just want to speed run this without considering if other players want the curses or not 🤷🏻‍♀️
Once the fight is activated and the headless horseman starts to do his little dialogue before the fight, the wickermen quickly despawn and you no longer have access to the curses!

Commento di Whulle

I enjoyed this new hard mode, and being honest it isn't even hard. Just dodge crap on the ground, same old WoW mechanic's. I hope to see them do hard modes for the other holiday bosses like Ahune, Coren Birranera and the Crown Chemical Co.

Commento di greencatspryte

Thanks for all the advice, achieved this today: click the tall wicker dude near the entrance, accept all curses. In the fight, stay out of all the curses coming at you, importantly, kill your own ghost self when it appears and before it reaches the Headless Horseman, your ghost may appear more than once. Popped for me by doing this and also looted the scarlet key (no Arfus however boo hoo).
