Get rewards from failed Garrison Missions

[sezz]

You're saying 8k exp (lvl 100 quest) on a level 90 follower is pointless?

Your low level follower only gets 800 experience: Followers and Garrison Missions XP - Forums - World of Warcraft

False, i just did it few second ago again, just to prove you wrong:

This screenshot is spot on what was happening with me, it even said that 100% missions were "Failed" but gave the reward.
Worked like a charm, good thing I waited to do my 1k apexis crystal mission .

As always, + rep to OP

[batok]

timing is key for this if you do it wrong you still fail the mission not fixed though

[Slickz]

if mission actually fail, then the mission is completly skipped and you get nothing!
if mission is actually success, then you get screen like this:

and ofc you get rewards.

so this doesnt work EU!

This. It might have worked earlier, I didn't test. But now it isn't.

This is working and is also a repost

its now like yt or any other page with upvotes/rep you can be the original poster and still get less rep for it than someone who posted it during the "right time"

what happens if you mess it up? do you get nothing?

[Romath]

Just tested on a failed mission on US worked perfectly and got the resources.
1 rep for OP

I still dont understand this, sorry!

When i right click the "Command Table" and press "View Completed missions", i get the first mission up. I get the animations and see a "MISS" - then i press escape and the windows just shuts down.


?

yeah... alot of people here doesnt even know how this is working... all that they see is "mission failed" and the think that this is working, ROFL but they got " mission failed" on mission that actually success

You don't get the bonus item, but your follower does get the base xp (I made sure of that one).

I am 99% sure this doesn't actually work and it gives false positives. Doing the trick on a 100% mission complete will give you a mission failed screen and you can still open the chest. I haven't been able to actually test more than one mission with a 100% failure rate yet so when I get the chance I will see if this actually holds water. Any mission with any chance of success between 1 and 99 is not a valid example. I am also not sure if it does or does not award the bonus items (not XP) upon a successful mission that you screw up with the trick. Bonus XP sometimes disappears from the chest and is not awarded to followers until the next time they do a mission (and you don't try the trick). Leveling Blook I found him getting a series of +300, +500, +700, etc, from a single mission after having given up testing it on him.

So whether or not this works? I am leaning towards no. You can still do it because I don't think there is too much harm, but I'm not convinced enough to go around suggesting this to other people.

[explosive82]

can anybody answer my question? what if you hit esc to early or 2 late do you still get xp and stuff or do you get nothing

I am quoting this, because I feel there is enough evidence in this thread to support it. This seems to just be a client visual glitch, and not actually allowing you to get rewards for failed missions.

When I read the thread, I ran home at lunch to test it out and went 3/3.. Booya.. its working I thought. So I queued up a bunch of 10% chance missions I had building up because I am now guaranteed. I was unable to get it to work for any of them. So I tried again with some lower level missions with high success chance, and again was able to find the "sweet spot"

But, there is no sweet spot. If you failed the mission, your mission disappears. If you completed it, it shows a fail and give you the reward you deserve.

Remmey in post #47 shows a screen shot of it "working" and then states a 100% mission failed, but they got the reward. Why would a 100% mission fail?

Moor2 on post #13 has a screenshot of it "working" with a lvl 97 epic follower apparently failing a lvl 91 mission. How does a lvl 97 fail a lvl 91 mission?

Have any of you that this is working for wondered why you are suddenly "failing" every mission while doing this trick?

[Phantons]

This is simply a UI error. It has been since it was posted. If you notice, you're not ACTUALLY getting rewards from missions that you really did fail. It lets you click the chest and see what's inside, but if you really did fail the mission, you're not getting that reward even though it shows you getting it. The reason this hasn't been "fixed" yet is because it is a UI error, and therefore would require a small patch to fix our files. They'd rather not worry about the simple UI error that only people trying to cheat would see.

works great with a bit luck +1

Still working on EU. From what I can tell the ones that do not work are the ones that have the telescope next to the level rather than the two swords. Can someone confirm this?
