Stuck with "paw" suffix after warrior naming ceremony ↗Player post, read October 25. Reports a ceremony bug that grants the warrior rank but keeps the apprentice name, seen by several players; most often after tabbing out, and taking a screenshot counted as tabbing out for them. Closing the game fully (they used Task Manager) and relaunching put them back into the warrior ceremony.Reported · checked · published 24 Oct 2026
I didnt get my warrior name--I stayed a -paw!!! What do I do? ↗Players' thread, 3 replies by October 25. The poster alt-tabbed and stayed a -paw despite being a warrior.

ShadowClan soft-lock ↗Player post, read October 25. In ShadowClan's The Brave and the Bold quest at the Sentry-Shadow Slopes, the enemy can be fought but the clanmate floats above the ground and the quest marker can't be interacted with. Restarting the game brought the same result every time.Reported · checked · published 25 Oct 2026
Softlocked?? Windclan Rescue Quest ↗Player post, read October 25. In WindClan's story quest to rescue a clanmate, the enemy can be fought off but the cat to rescue floats in the air and can't be interacted with; jumping into it pushes the player away. Closing the game and warping away didn't help. The cat to rescue was also in the player's party.Reported · checked · published 24 Oct 2026

Stuck on Riverclan Quest Preperation is Readiness ↗Players' thread, 1 reply by October 25. The poster follows the StarClan light to RiverClan's Preparation Is Readiness spot and finds nothing; the quest only says track and collect. The reply found them at The Horseplace in the east of RiverClan territory: three plants that looked like dandelions and needed a button press rather than walking through them; then the marker moved to a second trio further east along the road and the counter went from 3/3 back to 0/3; the second trio completed the quest.Reported · checked · published 23 Oct 2026
