The Rooster Race is near impossible.

The Rooster Race is too hard for how low it seems to spawn. I have played 12 games trying to grind for the Chicken mount, yet have only gotten it 4 times. We failed the challenge of those 4 times. I am fine with the challenge being hard to do in game, but If you are going to do that Blizzard please increase the frequency of times the race spawns or just give players more time to complete it before the game.

    Five Four items is way too many. Maybe if you could each pick up items and hold on to them between turn in, then everyone just needs to pick up one different item and you can turn them all in. But having to do them one at a time in sequence... it's really impossible unless all five have done it a bunch and are completely ready, plus a fair bit of luck (sometimes the items are so far away there's not enough time no matter what, and sometimes the little item indicator doesn't appear).

    Edit: Also, are you supposed to get dismounted when you channel to pick up the item? The only game we've been able to succeed at was also the only game where we didn't get dismounted. And why the hell do you have to channel to pick it up anyway?

    You can already do this (have everyone pick up a different item) and wait to turn them in until the Rooster calls for it. It makes it a lot easier to complete.

    Hey all, we're aware of some issues with the Lunar event. We currently have a bug that is preventing quest progress if you turn in the final item while the rooster is walking (but the timer expires). It will communicate you were successful, but the progress isn't being recorded. (As an early aside, we won't be able to provide credit for this after the fix, sorry).

    Additionally, we're looking to possibly extend the timer a bit for turning in items, looking into that now. Hopefully we can get something out before the end of the week for this, thanks for your patience!
