Attempted to do this the day the patch came out, was able to get everyone except for Beezil. He says he will join your caravan, but the achievement doesn't update. Will be putting a ticket in for it.

Update: Logged in and out, and the achievement completed. Good luck everyone and have fun!

Comment by 703128

Battle for Darrowshire (to get Pamela Redpath) appears to be bugged. Redpath plopped over and died for no apparent reason, and now after dropping and reaquiring the quest the event is unstartable.

Also, talked to Beezil after my caravan made its final stop in Lights Chapel and got him to join the ride, but doesn't show up on the quest track as being completed.

Comment by 141758

Ok. Lets start from the beginning. To get this achievement you need to do a chain of quests which start directly with Fiona or you can get a mini pre-quest in Light's Hope (which asks you to find Fiona).
After you finish all the quests she asks for, you'll get the achievement.

Comment by 388145

The basic quest chain works like this.

First:
Grab a quest at LHC to go talk to Fiona. she's at the road next to the river that separates WPL from EPL. She will give you a quest to go find a couple of guys for her caravan. The dwarf is north. Just follow the river. The elf is east along the road. each will give you a quest to do to help them so the can go back to the caravan. Once back at the caravan you can hop on and go to the next destination.

Second:
The caravan will go to each tower and stop so you can do a group of quests at each tower before continuing on to the next tower. You have to clear all the quests at the tower to get the caravan to go to the next one. The quests can be completed in the areas around the tower you're at.

Third:
After you get to Northpass Tower, the dwarf will go missing. While doing the quests to find him, make sure you loot everything. I was stuck because I missed a quest starter item that dropped when I didn't loot the mobs.

Last:
Once back at LHC, the last guy for the caravan will be right next to a tree a little south of the group.

good job on finishing up the long, convoluted quest line.

Comment by 432209

You can't get Beezil to join your caravan if you're hated with Gadgetzan.. so in order to get this achievement you have to be at least neutral with that goblin city.

Comment by Arcan

If you're not getting credit for adding a member to the caravan, simply log out and back in and it should give you the credit - this worked for me when I had to add Beezil after completing the chain (there is no quest for this guy, just talk to him at light's hope).

Comment by Phentari

I logged back in after talking to Beezil and got credit for him--in fact, I thought I had the achievement finished. However, now it says that I don't have credit for Fiona. Logging out and then back in does nothing; she has no further quests to give.

Did I miss something, or is this a glitch?

Comment by ItZMuRdA

Fwiw, people who are having troubles with Fiona disappearing from ach credit. I went and did quests in other zones for awhile and came back to EPL later, as soon as I landed at Thondroril River flightpath, I got the achievement again. Try that, might fix it for you. Strange bug, lol.

Comment by 647719

did the Fiona quest chain, got all the way to lights hope and finished her chain without realizing I needed to grab a few people. is it still doable or am I screwed on the achievement?

Battle for Darrowshire IS fixed, finally got Pamela. got the rest too, had to relog like everyone else for Beezil. also had the same problem with Fiona disappearing off the chieve requirements, but she re-appeared while I was in the Blasted Lands and got the achievement.

Comment by Juvy

if you look at the criteria at the top of the page, six of the requirements are quest completions. one is a "flag" you get from talking to beezil at light's hope. fiona's is "spell not found". so i'm guessing that's the problem we're encountering with fiona dropping from our achievement

Comment by 13143

Battle of Darrowshire is indeed broken. It bugs. I requested help from a GM and he contacted me after few hours. Said he reseted the "area" and the quest is now possible to finish.
I went back to the Darrowshire and finished it with no problems.

Beezil tells you he will join the caravan but the achievement isn't updated? Relog It helps instantly.

As for people who have problem with Vex'tul? I've heard there are some problems with the NPC but no idea what it is all about and therefore i can't help.

Hope you are lucky with nice GM to reset the Darrowshire for you!
Good luck.

"Third:
After you get to Northpass Tower, the dwarf will go missing. While doing the quests to find him, make sure you loot everything. I was stuck because I missed a quest starter item that dropped when I didn't loot the mobs."

The quest item is "The Baroness' Missive" starts a quest with the same name ending with Tarenar Sunstrike.

Comment by 326509

How do I get Fiona to move from Light's Shield Tower?
And the Darrowshire quest is bugged, so will she move when I do it?

Comment by AleAle

Comment by Japes

Completed the achievement last night and logged in to find I needed to recruit Fiona to the caravan.

Comment by 34422

Hey all, I have had several problems with this achievement too; on the day when I got it, and on the day after (it said Beezil was missing after all the questing on day 1, and then Fiona was greyed out on day 2 after getting the achievement). Here's some tips that fixed things up for me.

If you're having troubles with getting Beezil on the caravan, do this:

1.) Talk to him at Light's Hope Chapel and select the dialogue option.
2.) Relog (don't /reload ui, log out and log back in completely)
3.) Talk to him again.

You should then automatically get the achievement, and you will know that Beezil has definitely joined the group by talking to him once again and seeing that he has nothing more to say. Also, make sure you are at least Neutral with Gadgetzan! You will not be able to interact with him properly if let's say, you've been farming Bloodsail rep a lot. This of course, applies to the rest of Steamwheedle Cartel.

If you managed to get the achievement but then suddenly lost it because Fiona went missing (greyed out on achi), then do the following:

1.) Fly to the river area of EPL, where you first met her.
2.) Speak to her.
3.) Cross the bridge to WPL, making sure you're properly exiting EPL and zoning into a different area.
4.) Go back to her again, and you should automatically get the achievement.

You should not need to relog.

I hope this helps :)

Comment by weezuz

Well i cannot find Beezil anywhere. Can anyone plz let me no where he is located as i dont see him at Lights hope chapel anywhere. My caravan is currently at North point tower.

Comment by Xanthria

Where did you get the item for Gidwin? I can't find him and its aggravating. Haha

Comment by Turof

It is most unfortunate that as of this posting the quest is still bugged, The Battle of Darrowshire, and as such you can not get the ach. at least on Drak'thul.

Just did it on Tuesday after servers came back up, and got it done. You need to help kill a few elites but it was not too hard as a shadow priest.

Comment by 713385

Do you get Pamela after completing the Battle quest? Shes the only one I don't have in my caravan because the battle is glitched here as well..

Comment by 632709

I can't recruit Beezil because I'm hated by the steemwheedle cartel. This is bull@#$%.

Comment by 209232

haven't had any problems talking to anyone but Beevil, relogged and BAM, got credit.. Pamela on the other hand will not talk to me. I cannot complete The battle for Darrow, so i'm guessing that's where the problem lies

Comment by Lohoris

Oddly, with an alt of mine I suddenly "Completed step of achievement " without ever having been in the Eastern Plaguelands.

Comment by Malvenue

I was having trouble with Battle of Darrowshire quest completing like so many others have. Today I logged in shortly after the server reset and made my way to Darrowshire to find the event completed and the two green quest npcs available to interact with. I quickly worked through their dialogues, headed to little Pamela and completed the quest. I was immediately awarded the achievement without any further dialogue necessary.

Comment by 82430

FULL CARAVAN completed after I logged out and in again. However, after coming back and hour later and logging in from the Badlands, again the achievement is again uncomplete and Fiona is the one that hasn't joined her own caravan! I then flew back to EPL and as I flew into the zone the achievement completed AGAIN! Don't know what's going to happen with this.

Comment by 712962

A member of the horde was doing this quest. After multiple ganking attempts with both of us dying a few times they managed to finish it. Low and behold lucky me was able to talk to the Joseph Redpath ghost npc and get credit for Battle of Darrowshire :)

Comment by sfen

BTW, I freaked when I completed getting the traveler at the first tower (Argus Highbeacon, guy at the top of the tower who gives the plaguebat quest), and he didn't show up in the achieve window. He showed up only after the coach ride ended at the next tower.

Comment by thijsd

This is working again as of 1 December 2010.
Proof: here :)

It didn't work the first time for me though but after 2 tries it worked well :) You just can't prevent the NPC's from dieing :(

Comment by Jaadis

This achievement just appeared complete after i had first talked to Beezil and then relogged. Guildies saw no achievement announce about it in guild chat. Very weird.

Comment by Buffalo3R

i did that achievment by relogging because i needed beezil as last guy and got the achievment, but now it says that i didnt get it and that i missed fiona.

Comment by Alina

As of today (December first) The Battle for Darrowshire is fixed again! And this achievement can be completed.

Comment by Glowyrm

So how do you get the Caravan to move from Light's Shield? I have everyone except for Rimblat (did his grubb meat quest).

Comment by Saxfacts

I also have the bug where I am missing the achievement (after having received it already) as well as Fiona.

Comment by 264523

In regards to getting Little Pamela:

The "Battle for Darrowshire" has been seriously bugged, there are enough posts confirming that. However today the launcher downloaded a tiny patch and now the quest was working properly for me.

Comment by Neuber

This achievement involves a long chain of quests that are scattered all over EPL. It's good to do Eastern Plaguelands Quests at the same time.

Light's Hope Chapel. Go to Light's Hope Chapel in EPL and pickup the quest Visitors from the NPC Lord Maxwell Tyrosus
Fiona. Go to the western edge of EPL at location 9, 66 to Fiona. Pickup both her quests Gidwin Goldbraids and Tarenar Sunstrike
Tarenar Sunstrike. Go SE to Tarenar Sunstrike at location 18, 75 and complete both his quests What I Do Best and A Gift For Fiona
Gidwin Goldbraid. Go North to Gidwin Goldbraids at location 4, 36 and complete both his quests Just Encased and Greasing the Wheel
Back to Fiona. At this point Fiona should offer you the quest Onward, to Light's Hope Chapel. This is where you take the caravan which will stop at Crown Guard Tower.

From here you need to do all quests associated with your desired caravan members. All the ones around the towers basically. If you're stuck with the caravan at Northpass Tower, you most likely need to pickup this item. If you don't get the achv after talking to beezil, just relog.

Comment by smart001

Beezil is a member of gadgetstan, you cant talk to him if you are hated with the Goblins. You can still get all the other guys to join though.

Comment by LovesJoyousSin

Another odd thing with Fiona disappearing from your completed achievement: I had the achievement, logged in next day and no longer had it. Appears Fiona tried to skip out. I was questing in Arathi Highlands and ran into the alliance fp birds and died...and apparently re-earned the achievement again. So dying once may help if you're impatient for the bug to be fixed and want to give it a try.

Comment by Beatriz

A few guild mates and I have been running around completing quest achievements this week for lack of anything better to do, and I'd heard some of them mention that this quest line was bugged. Because of this I started tracking the achievement before I even entered the zone, and I noticed that I got Fiona's credit before even talking with her, just by accepting the pre-quest at LHC to talk to her. I don't know if it is possible to start this quest line without the Light's Hope starter quest, but is it possible some of the bugging has happened because people start directly at Fiona instead? That said, I had Beezil bugged for awhile in spite of a log off, but when I logged on after a three hour break, I had the credit. I guess my first log off didn't take.

Also, don't give up on Darrowshire. I went back and tried it again multiple times, and it finally worked last night.

Comment by Martika

Can confirm that Darrowshire can be restarted if it ends up bugged out by abandoning your quest and re-getting it.

Can confirm that once you finish it, if you log out and log back in you get the achievement.

Can confirm that the next day, Fiona is no longer on your list and you have lost the achievement again.

So now wht?

Comment by 717062

OK so i acheived full caravan yesterday after needing to log out and back in to receive the achievement although when i logged in today the achievement is no longer showing as earned and it says i need Fiona to complete my caravan. Apart from these 2 issues i didn't have any quests that were actually bugged.

Comment by Tjaffe

After completing this achievement yesterday, I found myself upon logging in today without the achievement, Apperently "Fiona" decided not to meet the criteria of the achievement afterall.

Has this happend to anyone else?

Comment by 411443

The same thing happened to me, Phen. I assume it'll be fixed at the next patch. I had the achievement and now I don't.

Comment by Sothasil

Had the same issue, earned the achievement by relogging, next day lost the achievement because Fiona was missing.

I just talked to the flightmaster to fly to the chapel and re-earned the achievement directly after the start of the flight.

Comment by Jyra

Just remember to start her moving before you have all 8 recruited. It can be started fairly early, but you can also wait until you have 5 recruits - the last three (Beezil, Argus and Rimblat) will not join you until the caravan is on the move.

As of 03/Dec you still had to log out and back in again once Beezil has agreed to join you so that he goes from the list.

Comment by 295146

So, I finished every quest in Eastern Plaguelands with only Beezil left to go for this achievement. I talked to him, didn't get credit, fiddled around with him, got frustrated, came here, discovered I just needed to relog, so I relogged, and it worked. I logged back in with the achievement and 10 more points than before.

I moved on to the quests in Badlands, and about half-way through them, my full caravan achievement was no longer complete, and I was somehow missing credit for Fiona...? Okay, so I flew ALL the way back to Eastern Plaguelands, and tried to talk to Fiona, but alas, she's nothing but a vendor at Light's Hope and she's nowhere else in the zone. So I relogged again, and it didn't work. Relogged a few times, didn't work.

I put in a ticket, farmed for Mr. Grubbs for a few hours, then gave up and went to bed. Got home after work the next day, logged on, realized the ticket still hadn't been answered, farmed Mr. Grubbs for about 10 minutes and then amazingly got him. Well, soon as I right-clicked Mr. Grubbs in my bag, I got a new pet AND the Full Caravan achievement. Weird.

Now watch, tomorrow I'm gonna log in with zero achievements....

Comment by freak45

logging out and back in works :) woot got mine

Comment by Invisafehz

I had the same issue as Phentari above. I talked to Beezil, and at first I didn't get credit for him. I logged out and back in and then I had credit for Beezil, but I no longer had credit for Fiona. I decided to go back to questing and flew to Plaguewood Tower. Upon landing at the tower I suddenly got credit for having Fiona and got the achievement. So if you are having trouble getting credit for Fiona after you have all the others then try flying there. Hope this helps.

Comment by 374997

I had the Fiona bug too. I did all the flying around, which didn't work. I died (accidentally, that damn Cape of Stranglethorn quest that kills you got me due to a "Can't do that while mounted" error...), which didn't work. Finally after doing 10 more Quests achievements (and consequently finishing), I decided that wasn't going to work so I resolved to mess with everything I could until it worked.

So, here's how to make Fiona give you your credit back: Take random buffs from the caravan. I had Fiona's the entire time, switched to someone else's, switched back, then kept taking more and more buffs. One of them gave me Fiona credit (note: not Fiona's).

Hope this works for you, and good luck making it stick once and for all!

Comment by messiah77

I had the same issue as others, first of all wasn't getting the credit from Beezil so relogged and that worked, i had my achievement or so i thought lol Logged off for an hour or 2 and then when i log back in, my achievement has gone and i'm missing Fiona... wth, so onto here and checked some things and this what worked for me.

I flew to Thondoril River but she is no longer there, so flew to Light's Hope Chapel, landed, no achievement. Ok, time to see if the aforementioned buffing works, and YES! that worked for me. I just clicked on the buffs from the caravan and it came up, i think i started from Beezil's buff and went backwards, got to Vex'tul and i got the credit for the achievement.

Hopefully when i log back in tomorrow it will still be there lol

Anyway, thanks to all with the tips etc, and i hope that it gets fixed soonish otherwise it's going to get really tedious

Comment by 68438

You no longer have to complete all the quests at a tower to get the caravan to move on.

if someone else finish all quest and move caravan, than u dont need to do all. only few needed for achievement.

I was on one tower quest when I found Fiona on next tower before I turn all quest.
but there she dont give option to move before I finish all quests.

Comment by darkbane

I have complete all the quests and have credit for everyone except Fiona. I had credit for her right from the beginning but after I got Beezil, I lost Fiona from the achievement. Can't do anything about this and it's pretty annoying!

Comment by 320872

I was stuck on this for ages. Completed all the quests and the caravan wouldn't move from Northpass Tower. I even went into Stratholme and cleared all of those quests. I had the 70 quest achievement adn was stuck.

I checked through my bags and found a drop that started a quest "The Baroness' Missive". I handed this in to Tarenar Sunstrike. This then led to "Gidwin's Fate Revealed". After this quest which involved a nice cut scene I got "Journey's End" quest and a hearthstone to Light's Hope Chapel. There by the wall was the Fiona and the caravan to complete the quest.

Next to the caravan stood under a tree was Beezil Linkspanner. I spoke to him and even though he said he could drive the caravan I did not get the achievement :(. Relogged to check if it was bugged and when I zoned back in I got the achievement :)

dtm, Aszune

Comment by marklartank

after reading all these comments about losing fiona, i tried something different when i didn't get credit for beezil. i flew to hinterlands, then relogged.

it seemed to work, i got credit for beezil and didn't lose fiona; maybe being in a different zone helped?

EDIT: and now..... i see i lost fiona again on the armory... grrr....

Comment by Mykal

Same bug as everyone else. Beezil wouldnt join so logged, got achieve. Was even at top of summary. However after logging some time later, Fiona is now greyed out. Must be a bug which will probably be fixed in next patch.

Comment by 334124

To get Pamela Redpath on the caravan, here's the questline:

1) Little Pamela

3) Uncle Carlin

4) A Strange Historian

5a) Villains of Darrowshire
5b) Heroes of Darrowshire
5c) Marauders of Darrowshire

6) The Battle of Darrowshire

7) Hidden Treasures

Comment by 334124

To get Vex'tul on the caravan, here's the questline:

1) Zaeldarr the Outcast

2) Honor and Strength

Comment by Oblivexx

I did the quest til like the tower east of Plaguewood, till I realized I was missing a guy (goblin). I found the goblin at Light's Hope Chapel and invited him to join. Once the story was completed I didn't get the achievement for it. I tried the relog method, but nothing popped up.

Any info would be appreciated.

Comment by Lasser

Though I had to relog to get the goblin. I can confirm that this is still working.

Comment by Deathtou

can you talk to the all the characters needed for the achievement after you have completed the quest chain Fiona gives?

Comment by 734935

After finally going back to get Beezil, Fiona is longer green in the achievement thing. How can I talk to her to complete the achievement?

Comment by 734935

I hope they fix it quickly, it's the only quest achievement I have left for the eastern kingdoms.. >_< I already got loremaster and having that one undone is bugging me. :P

Comment by 735378

I just recently completed and attained the achievement "Full Caravan" I then went and finished the final part for Vex'tul. Now, even before finishing Vex'Tul's chain, my achievement had left me upon logging on after I had already achieved it from my last play. It now says that I'm missing...Fiona *shrugs* anyone else have this issue?

Comment by 725088

Completed everything in EPL, spoke to the last goblin but it didn't register that he had joined the caravan. Relogged and I had the achievement. Relogged again and now it says I don't have Fiona :S. Got a ticket open now.

Comment by Amberose

I had the same bug with Fiona but managed to get it back by going to Light's Hope and getting the Lucky Charm Buff then flying back to the start point of the quest chain near the river. Ran to the spot where the caravan would be (Note that fiona or the caravan isnt there) and then ran across the bridge until the zone changed. Once the zone changed i was given the achievement immediatly and it has stayed after multiple logins.

Can't say if doing all the above or just part of them triggered it to make the award but i tried several of the other suggestions here that didnt work for me, so kinda combined them together and that did the trick.

This did not work for me. When I went back to her after having the achievement completed, she doesn't talk to me. She's just a merchant now.

Thats correct she is just a merchant if she has no quests. You click the caravan to get the buffs.

Comment by dasbaum

If anyone did not get the achievement or lost it (missing Fiona), visit all NPCs again and all caravan places one more time, it triggers the achievement again.

Otherwise petition a gm, they will fix it for you.

Comment by Lampie

Just finished this achievement after having Fiona bug out on me at the end... nothing worked for me including zoning out, rebuffing, flying to all the caravan sites, etc. I ended up camping at the river where you first encounter her, eventually another player came along and the achievement was triggered immediately.

Comment by Herukakaya

The only NPC I missed was Vex'tul, whom I found just below the tower at 52.6, 51.7, or below the O in Tower when you're at Light's Shield Tower. He summons 3 adds which you have to kill for his quest.

Comment by 719599

I got this achievement yesterday, and when I logged on today, I didn't have it. The person missing? Fiona! ughhh.. i don't know what i'm suppposed to do, but I'm going to finish all of the quests in eastern plaguelands. See if that helps or not >_<

Comment by 351669

I am currently one person away from getting this achievement, Beezil Linkspanner and utterly confused as to why his name was showing up red. It turns out that by getting "Avast Ye, Admiral" I'm now hated with Gadgetzan and he is a non-killable npc affiliated with them which makes it impossible for me to get this achievement unless i were to grind my rep all the way up from hostile, through unfriendly and into nutral which means kill alot of pirates or turn in alot of cloth, so those of you looking to get this achievement and are in the same boat as I then go get alot of cloth.

Comment by 110494

Not the easiest achievement to get working. The caravan story was great however and really was an awesome mechanic to explore the zone.

Did the bare minimum to get the caravan moving and discovered you only need Fiona, Tarenar, Gidwin and Argus quest chains to do so.

Thankfully you can still go back to do Pamela, Rimbalt, Vex'tul's quest chains to get them to join (this doesn't change the journey story, they just leave items in the caravan you can use).

Beezil can be recruited simply by talking to him once the caravan is in Lights Hope. Just like many others I didn't get the achievment after talking to him, only upon relogging.

Then logging back in another day the achievement was bugged as described with Fiona missing. Tried all that was suggested (took a flight path, farmed Mr Grubbs and got him, logged out outside plaguelands.) The only thing that finally worked was flying back (on mount) to the start of the caravan journey from Lights Hope. At 'Crown Guard Tower' the achievement popped up.

My gut feeling is the achievement is bugged based on phasing mechanics. I was actually trying Lampie's suggestion above to camp at the start of the caravans journey. It seems possible that Fiona is 'found' in proximity to a certain zone/phase configurations, one that is affected by other players move the caravan on a different points. If this proximity is related to other players rather than the zone it might explain why some are finding they get the achievement randomly elsewhere in Eastern Kingdoms.

Hope this info helps some of you

Comment by 736428

im stuck on this achievement :( im in the northpass tower and i only need to find beezil linkspanner
does anyone know what to do next?
ive done all the q's in this area :P

Comment by TCHJ3K

Completed the quests and recruited everyone, but Beezil was still missing from the achievement.

Next time I logged in, Beezil was showing as complete, but Fiona wasn't.

Many, MANY hours later, long after I'd left EPL behind, the achievement suddenly popped.

So if you've got all the buffs available at the caravan, regardless of whether the achievement criteria are showing as completed, my guess is that the server will eventually realise, just be patient. But I doubt there's anything specific you can do to hurry it along, short of filing a GM ticket..

Comment by Ringthane

I had the achievement, and now, after a few days of playing, I don't have it again. Who'd I lose? Fiona.

Just another in the long list of things that isn't working correctly in this godawful rushed piece of crap they called an expansion. The only thing it expanded was the bug list.

Comment by kittennav

I was in the same boat with Beezil- missed him at LHC. Finished the rest of the zone quests, and Fiona and crew relocate back to LHC after finding Goldbraids. Beezil re-appears with the group, and I added him at the end. Quest complete, no bug so far with Fiona.

Comment by 770700

PAMELA REDPATH !

I've done everything but Pamela And Beezil was missing. I logged off/on and Beezil was solved. However i still miss Pamela and its's not possible to talk to her anymore :(
How can I solve this?

Comment by JulianeOnDragon

Still bugged. Got Beezil, logged out and in and he was there, but got the message that "please wait, db not ready"
Next day i logged in Fiona wasn't there.
Looks like the database can't handle all NPC's. yet.
Think the bug will be corrected sometime in a maintenance.

Comment by Takata

Well this is one achievement that I won't be getting...already did the quest line and I missed four people. I didn't even know there was an achievement for it. I missed, Pamela Redpath, Vex'Tul, Rimblat Earthshatter and Beezil Linkspanner. Well at least I got my Argent Dawn faction finally to exalted which was what I really wanted.

Are you able to go back and recruit people to the caravan even after you finish the quest chain.

Comment by 769455

Lol this was so strange to me. When I finished the questline I talked to Beezil and he didn't count for me, so like everyone said I relogged. Then, Fiona didn't count! I tried the trick of switching buffs from the caravan, zoning in and out, I even sent in a ticket and they just said "We're working on it." So, I decided to do some Argent Dawn rep farming. As I was flying to Stratholme I randomly got the achievement.... how random....

Comment by 758177

Completed, after talking to Beezil and finishing the last quest with Fiona I did have to log out and back in, and I had the achievement.

After logging out I still had it, so I guess that part is fixed?

Comment by akrostychon

got my achievement back, after i did some quests in The Hinterlands, namely "Stalking the Stalkers" ... after handing in the quest, the achievement popped up :)

Comment by Ipren

I first did these quests about three weeks ago, I tried the log out/log in method and I got the achievement but like other people have experienced it was lost again the next day.
Now the weird thing is today I was at Northridge Lumber Camp in WPL for archaeology and the second I looted a fragment the achievement popped up for me... Massively bugged to be sure but someone else might wanna give it a try to finally get this bloody achievement ^^

Comment by 783216

Had the same issue, opened a ticket but got referred here. They know about the issue and there isn't a fix yet.
what worked for me was going back to where you start the Caravan. I waited patiently for some one to talk to her as it's phased now. Minutes later some one came by and talked to her and Bam there was my achievement.

Comment by DocLithius

Okay, so! I finally got around to completing the entire caravan chain. After returning to Light's Hope Chapel, I finished the last quest, then I talked to Beezil. He joined the caravan and I can use his cog, but I didn't get credit for the achievement. After I logged out and logged back in, however, I got the achievement with no negative side-effects.

I'm sure there's other ways to break this quest, but if you get seven out of the eight members and finish all the quests, then talk to Beezil, you should be alright if you log out and log back in, I guess.

Comment by cgarnai

This is not glitched. I just did the quests yesterday. Do the quests in the order listed here and it works just fine.

Comment by karwara

confirmed. i had trouble with beezil, logged in then out again after talking to him and the achievement was complete, ty guys :)

Comment by 792455

8 characters its pretty good cause all the classes got 8 .cant get confused just doing all once.

Comment by 796071

Did the whole thing, logged off. Next time I came back, Fiona was gone. So I went back to EPL, got her charm, logged off and back on....nothing. Started opening a ticket and it popped up. Took about 2/5 minutes after I logged back in. I was standing by her and the caravan in Light's Hope Chapel.

Comment by 462946

Well, I did this quest last night, took some time, but like "Arcan" says I did have to log out last night to get this 'chieve. BUT I came on this morning and I don't have it, it says I still need Fiona, lol, I have all the others, now...does that make sense? And I tried talking to her, nothing, so... I have no clue except I know I got credit for it, but as to why it's not here now is a glitch i would guess, only because to even get Fiona you have to do her quests, and I certainly did,lol all the others are there. Anyone else have this problem? And same with "Explore Tol Barad" they are working on it they say.
Peace.

Comment by darkpowrjd

the only problem with this is that Fiona has Moved from the point at the River - I do not understand how people are able to say this worked when if you have the ither 7, Fiona will no longer be there and be standing at Lights Hope Chapel, and all she does there is sell mana drinks.

We know already that she's in LHC. The thing is that, as I had it happen, when she mysteriously drops from the ach requirement list, flying out of the zone and to WPL somehow checks her off again and you get the ach back, regardless of anything else. Some others have gotten it back in various ways.

This is bugged to high hell, though, and Blizz has GOT to get on fixing this. We've worked so hard on each quest to do this, and for the achievement to bug out because of this is ridiculous. There's no guarantee that once you get Fiona, AGAIN, wherever the achievement pops that she won't mysteriously drop from it again and make you have to go grab it again (in other words, no guarantee that the game won't make you do the same thing to regain what you've already done every single time you log on).

Comment by 788055

As described above, I had completed this but the next time I logged on I had lost credit for the achievement and Fiona was listed as being needed. I went back to speak to Fiona but that wasn't sufficient. Later I spoke to her and then hit the vendor link. The vendor interface appeared and the achievement was re-granted at the same time.

I've logged out and back in and still have the credit.

So apparently Fiona will ride in your caravan as long as you sell her your greys. Good luck.

Comment by 799535

Okay, I have a question, I just did this one and I got everyone but Beezil and Pamela Redpath, I logged out and in like I saw on here and it took Beezil out, and left Pamela Redpath still there, I went to were she is located and it wont let me talk to her. Anyone else got this problem?

Comment by MQuynn

Had the problem where complete it, then Fiona disappears from the "Completed" list. Talked to a GM, all the same, told there currently wasn't a solution... But I decided to start my quests in in Silverpine Forest (all were reset with the onset of Cataclysm so I was at 0 of 50) and 3 quests in, all of a sudden the achieve "Full Caravan" popped up as complete. Strangest thing!

Comment by 280970

If you are hostile or worse with Gadgetzan (like me) you cannot talk to Beezil Linkspanner therefore making this achievement unobtainable...

Comment by Britomartus

I completed the achievement yesterday after using the log-in/log-out method for Beezil. Today Fiona is missing so I raised a ticket and a GM fixed it for me on the spot. Hopefully this sticks.

As a side note the GM was quite bonkers. Insisted he was a Terminator from the future sent back to wipe out the Murloc threat. If being insane is a pre-requisite for a GM then I should be first in the queue!

Comment by 310835

I did all the chain quests, while doing the Eastern Plaguelands' quest achievement. When finishing all caravan series, I had left Vex'Tul & Beezil. Logged out and relogged and Beezil counted up (and kept Fiona counted aswell).

Now i only have Vex'tul pending for the Full caravan achievemnt.

Comment by 310835

I finally found Vex'tul, right behind Light Shield Tower, at coords 52,51.
He is stealthed, so walk around until he spots.

He gave me available his quest "Honor & strength" after completing it, i got the achievemnt of FULL CARAVAN.

After this, I had the quest "Out of the Ziggurat", and finally "Into the flames",

Comment by Kytsos

Same as everyone here, I logged out/in got Beezil completed. Logged in the morning and Fiona was gone.

I summoned a friend with the new guild perk "Have group, WIll travel" to the bridge, he done the quests to free the dwarf from the webs/spiders etc-etc, when he delivered the bell quest (I was always on bridge) my achievement popped.

So far so good, achievement haven't vanished... yet.

GL to every1 !

Comment by 634064

Yesterday i died in Halls of Orgination then i came back and the achievement popped up :)
PS. i was missing Fiona

Comment by Suttrah

For those looking for the achivement:

- If you are only missing Beezil, just talk to him, exit the game, log back on, and you should have him join the caravan!

- If you are experiencing the same problem of not having fiona in the caravan the day after, have a friend in your group who didnt complete the first part of fiona quests, stand where she is at the very first time (near the bridge, even if you dont see her), and let you friend complete the 3-4 first quests. If you are near him when he turns the quest, you will get the achivement! Just tried today on avril 7th and it worked!

Comment by aphistionakis

Ok here's what we observed over several different toons within my guild tonight.

Both myself and another guild member had experienced the 'ach going missing' thing after completion and then randomly popping up as an ach for no apparent reason when we were in the northern part of eastern kingdoms.

Two other guild members were griping in guild chat about their ach disappearing and tehn one of them literally suddenly got it when in EPL doing a nerubian archae site. We read the comments above and decided to try the 'someone else startng the chain' theory.

It worked.

I logged my mage alt Pálando who has never done the 'new' EK zone quests and got one of the guildies who has had this ach disappear wait for me at Fiona's Caravan even though she couldnt see Fiona or the Caravan. We could see each other and we weren't in a party.

I did the first quest to go get the dwarf guy up where Tirion used to be while my guildmate waited at the river. The second I hnded in the quest 'Greasing the Wheels' she got her ach.

Yup this is a one off and yup it needs further proving but it points one hell of a way in the right direction: if this helps a few folk sort thjis ach out then this post has done its job.

Good hunting.

Comment by 797932

Confirmed: if you end up with credit for everyone in the party *except* Fiona, you can just go back to the first caravan location and wait there until someone else does the first 2-3 quests in her questline -- or have a friend come do them. You do not need to be grouped with the new quest-starter.

Go get a sandwich or a coffee, and maybe you'll have it when you get back. :)

Comment by diagl

I, like most people, had this glitch when I got the last character (Beezil). Logged out and back in to get it. I've since done Badlands, Searing Gorge, Burning Steppes, Swamp of Sorrows and half of Blasted lands.

Suddenly, out of nowhere I get the achievement and pop up notification. Really weird.

Comment by 663414

What worked for me was going back to her at LHC, get her Lucky Charm, and as I was taking off to fly to her starting place and wanting to cross into WPL and back, I got the achiev. Fiona was not in her starting place anymore, but merely a trader at LHC.

Comment by 21278

It's still broken in 4.1

Comment by 541843

I don't think anyone has mentioned yet but this achievement, as buggy as it is, appears to pay homage to LOTR.

A party of 9 travelers, yourself plus the 8 from the achievement. Also in the initial quests when the belf and dwarf were arguing over the amount of undead they had killed.

Comment by 832784

What do I need to do to get Pamela? I have everyone else.. I tried re- logging but I'm still missing her..

Comment by 832944

Had the exact same problem - did all the quests, didn't get the achievement at the end when I spoke to Beezil. Logged out, logged in, I had the achievement. The next day, I logged in, and Fiona was missing. Per other comments, I went back to the light's hope chapel area and sat there until I auto logged out. When I logged in the next day, I had the achievement again. After the server reset (the next day was Tuesday) I still had the achievement.

Comment by 784446

In Lights hope Chapel I attacked an enemy player while I had the guys up, the guards attacked me and gidwin charged the guards yelling, "I can't believe we're actually fighting for the Crusade!"

Comment by 134589

Looks like this is a common problem. I read a lot of the replies and tried various things.
- Went to the starting place with Fiona (didn't see her).
- Went to Light's Hope Chapel to stand by her/talk to her/look at her inventory.

What worked for me:
- I went to each point on the map looking for Fiona. When I got to the last one, I realized it was the only Flight Point I didn't have, but sadly Fiona wasn't there. I got the Flight Point and instantly got the achieve.

Don't know if it was coincidence or what. Don't care. Buggy as $%^&. I got the achievement.

Comment by 708524

21/5/11 - 5:33am (gmt)

Quest is still bugged.

I did the log-out/log-in because I didn't get Beezil and what do you know I lost Fiona.
After reading the other posts it just looks like a waiting game to see if the Achieve pops for me.

EDIT: 6:25am (gmt)
Achieve just popped.
Ran Scholomance/Stratholme for my Classic Dungeon achieve and when back to Fiona to sell the blue souldbound stuff to her and as I was selling stuff the achieve popped.

Comment by 301140

If your achivement is bugged try grouping with someone who hasn't done the quests and following them around while they turn in. It can trigger your achivement to unbug.

Comment by 821823

I had at first gotten this ach without problems. Then, however, I relogged, and apparently, Fiona had in the meantime decided to ditch her own caravan. A few weeks later, I was flying around in Hinterlands, and suddenly, I randomly got the ach. Odd thing is now, though, that the 10 points from it is only shown in my ach-panel... In the guild-view and on battle.net, it says I have 10 points less.
Yay for bugs!

Comment by 835979

Fix for losing Fiona credit:

A friend and I were doing this chain, had the usual 'lost credit for fiona' bug.

So we flew back to her original starting point at Thondroril River. We couldnt see her but I brought an alt over, accepted both the 'Gidwin Goldbriads' and 'Tarenar Sunstrike' quests. As I handed in the second follow up from Gidwin Goldbriads called 'Greasing the Wheel'(this gave my alt the Fiona credit) My friend got regained her Fiona credit and got the achievement.

So I swapped back to my main so she could do the same for me. Before her alt could do anything another ran up to Fiona and suddenly I regained my Fiona credit and got the achievement as well.

From this and previous comments, it seems pretty clear that being in the area when another player gains credit for Fiona will also reinstate your own credit and give you the achievement. Nothing to do with relogging mulitple times or flying back and forth.

Comment by 722535

I had finished all quests in Eastern Plaguelands, and wanted to get this achiv. By the time i had everyone, I wasnt awarded the achi, so i relogged and it was completed. Weeks later I lost credit for Fiona, but I didnt really mind so I left it as it was. A few weeks passed and I went to the Sepulcher in Silverpine Forest to finish something up, and while standing for a few minutes, I was surprisingly awarded this achievement. Dont know what it has to do with EP, but the waiting method could work anywhere, of course until they finally fix the achiv.

Comment by Eiriann

Ok, so you're here for 2 reasons:

1) You have 8 people in the caravan but no achievement. Re-log and check again.

2) You don't have 8 people. I was stuck for awhile at Northpass Tower because near the end of the quest chains with the Blood Elf paladin there's a drop item that looks like a piece of in-game mail called "The Baroness' Missive".

If you're missing Beezil and the caravan's at Light's Hope Chapel, he's standing under the tree right beside the caravan. Just talk to him.

Comment by Warmommy

I was having the problem where I didn't get credit for Beezil, logged out and in and then no credit for Fiona.

I went back and clicked on the caravan and the achievement completed and stayed complete after logging. I hope this helps.

Comment by Malifecent

Ok...the problem I am having is that I have done all the quests up to and including Light's Shield Tower and there is no quest to take me to the next point to continue on the trek. What am I missing? I have done all the quests at Light Shield Tower, and Vex'tul is sitting on the step of the caravan waiting to go and Fiona is standing there, but she has no quests to give me.

Comment by Jazzatola

Similar story here. Finished the criteria but no achievement. Relogged and it triggered. Relogged again and it bugged with Fiona missing. I tried the solutions mentioned already with no luck.

Contacted a GM who ported me to Eastern Plaguelands to fix the achievement and ported me back. All good.

Comment by Blackspirit

After today's patch my achievement's showing both Fiona and Beezil missing even though I have them in my group and can even use Beezil's buff. I came here to check and see and it looks like the spells associated with those two in the achievement are listed as not found. Is there anyone else who had this before the patch but now don't?

Comment by 856018

So, I'm having an issue getting my Caravan achiev. I have everyone except for Pamela Redpath. Can anyone point me in a direction. I have tried everything. The Caravan is sitting at LHC. I have tried going to Pamela, and it doesn''t give me any options? I have no idea what to do.... :-(

Comment by 564027

As far as I can tell, this is no longer bugged. I did the whole quest line over the past two days while getting my 70 quests in EPL achievement and just talked to Beezil and got it no problem. I did have to look up where Beezil was and how to get him involved, since it doesn't include him in the quest line. You just ask him to join. Pretty fun though.

Comment by 821763

i did the acheve for epl, did every quest they gave me even past the acheve
logged in and out , in and out in and out
and im still missing pamela...

any idea?

Comment by 874736

No matter what I do at Light's Shield I can't get my guy to proc up, there's nothing there but my Caravan minus the necessary duder to move on. This saddens me. Log in, log out- port in, port out. Nothin'.

Comment by skattepriest

I have the same problem. I did all the quests in lights shields tower, but i'm not getting a quest to go further. Can't talk to any1. The caravan is just parked there with out any horses, and Fiona standing next to it. Tried to reloog several times. Nothing happend. Did i miss anything ?

Update: I went to Light hope chapel, and did all the quests there, after i was sent to Eastwall tower where the caravan now waited.

By metalbunny (3,837 – 5·35) on 2010/12/11 (Patch 4.0.3)
Still don't get why the achievement says Pamela joins though, since she never does, and it doesn't show in any of the conversations.

The achievement says she joins the caravan... because she joins the caravan... in spirit. Do try to bare in mind that she's dead... as such she cannot physically join the Caravan like the other ( living ) NPCs.

She joins in spirit, hence why her doll shows up as one of the potential buffs you can get from the caravan. You've obviously not checked that, and probably never buffed yourself with it, because with that buff active, she will occasionally appear next to you and play and skip and frolic and generally be a little girl.... except she's dead.

Comment by 338023

I'd done all of the quests, and could even get all of the buffs from the Caravan at LHC. I still missed Beezil, though. Went to LHC, /tar beezil and talked to him -> Achievement!

Comment by Takata

*sigh* i did this quest and now even the ready, seat goat quest not realizing there were achievements for them....nice going Blizzard...

Comment by Kindali

Got the bare minimum crew on the caravan and moved it to its final destination. However, I have no quest available for me to access Vex'tul. Anyone have this problem?

Comment by 816584

ive just done this as i was missing Beezil Linkspanner too, i got him & the achi straight away, it came up on my screen and fiona didnt disappear like others have said, so if it was bugged i figure its solved!

Comment by dayoodin

While doing Loremaster on my 85 toon, I got this achievement. I experienced no bugs and thought it was a really fun chain.

I actually didn't realize there was an achievement at first and left EP without recruiting the last character, Beezil, in Light's Hope Chapel. I was worried that, because I'd moved on and never completed it, I'd lost my chance at getting the achievement, but I went back to EP, located the caravan easily on my map because it's marked clearly, talked to Beezil, and got the achievement.

Comment by perrintub

Beezil Linkspanner is @ 73.8 52.4 in lights hope chapel. i did all the quests in E.P. and forgot to get him. i went back and found him and i was still able to get the achieve.

Comment by Royalblood

Just talked to a GM about Fiona turning green without being to eastern plaguelands at lvl20.
Apparently Blizzard like to take shortcuts:

GM : Yeah , we had some issues with that achievement and fiona didnt get completed although players had talked to her.
GM : So I guess this is a way of solving this problem ^^
Me : But it did get completed from the start, so what its just random?
GM : It might be something triggered it.
GM : But I wouldn't wonder about it too much.
GM : If you get to the eastern plaguelands and complete the achievement all is good.

oooh Blizz.. ><
