Is this glitched, does anyone know?
I've been trying for almost an hour and just can't do it. There's times it looks like I'm clearly in the right spot, but no go. I've not had problems with any previous midsummer festivals. And I know it's not just me, my entire guild has been complaining about how it seems a lot more difficult and I personally have yet to see anyone actually complete it; just everyone attempting several times, complaining, and giving up.
Just wondering if anyone knows anything, or it has simply become a madskillz daily.

From the WoW forums, they seem to be saying that the height of the toss has been lowered, so you have less time to get into position.
I have no first hand experience with it though to confirm.
Cheers.

A lower toss height would make sense with what I saw with it. I have completed this several times in previous years, once so far this year.
I found that going to Ironforge or Exodar was the most helpful. Stormwind is too crowded and Darnassus has a highly patterned ground, making it hard to trace the shadow.
My method for catching is to zoom the camera out a middling distance so you can see the ground all around your character and have it tilted almost to the vertical so you can watch the shadow of the torch. The shadow is the only reliable way to trace the torch's path that I have found. It isn't easy, but it is doable for most people.
Latencies may also affect the ability to complete this consistently. My latency is usually around 100-150 ms.

That makes sense, the only guildies who have had the patience to stick with it are a druid and shaman in their speedy forms.
Yeah Org was way too populated and UC it's really hard to see on the ground. I was in TB since it's a small area and generally empty, but I was on 8 or 9 and someone dropped right on top of me on their dragon, broke my rhythm and nothing doing since then. Tried SMC but was failsaucing all over the place.

Alternatively for Horde,
Silvermoon City
and the new spot in
Orgrimmar
have a relatively flat surface that is easy to track the shadow on.

I actually found Org really hard to trace the shadow. In fact, I could not see it at all! I know that last year I went to UC and I found that fairly easy. I haven't confirmed it this year though.

This quest is too hard to me. Im saying i have never completed it. Shadow is too hard to see and its random shooting there and here.
Last year it was too hard and now too. You need some practise i think.

Also, MINAD!
