A question, were they story missions or ordeals? The workaround has also worked for me but for a day when the first was an ordeal. Up to now I have never received rewards from ordeals.
@higurewindstill#9502 I know today's (well I guess it's yesterday's, now) was an ordeal (Surface Tensions), but I'm not sure about the previous two days. 🤔
It is the regional dailies. I complete them after the daily timer resets at 4:00am. Then apply the work around, no issue. Today I waited until 9:00am when the second reset hits for the daily quickplay and event reset. I than ran the quickplay a dozen times, no yield. However if you have not completed the all of the daily challenges for each region it won't yield. Some of these dailies can't be completed through the quickplay either. I logged out and back in, first time with the work around and it yields. Story and ordeals yield as long as you have the other factors true. In my experience.
Instead of having to read the tea leaves to figure out how to get a fundamental gameplay mechanic to work, could they just fix it? I think everyone finds this much more important to do than re-labeling planar mana to bonus. But yeah, why not waste your development time doing inconsequential, cosmetic things. That is totally what we care about
I am not doing any extra work around. I should be able to play the game in whatever order I like unless the game was made to be linear in play. This was not, its a bug.
We should stop trying to find player made fixes (workarounds) for things that the developers should be doing.
The devs have been focused on trying to fix it. There are different teams that work on different things, the economy being worked on is not taking time away from QA trying to figure out what exactly is causing the Quick Play reward bug. In the meantime, it is always nice to have workarounds until a permanent solution can be put into place.
Workarounds are not fixes, just a way to be able to get something we cannot do through the regular way, until the problem gets fixed. All of people trying to get a workaround for this issue is doing so while waiting for the devs to fix it. Not getting the rewards consistently is a bug, and until the devs fix it this new feature will be seriously lacking.
Oh! I also forgot, through testing I think I found a better workaround than the one I posted previously.
To get the rewards it seems like Quick Play must be the first activity you complete upon logging in. If you get rewards from skirmishes, the Latent Shadow event, Daily Regional Questions, Daily Battlepass Quests, you will be locked from getting Quick Play rewards until you log out and log back in.
(although I have in the past gotten the rewards after doing another task, I typically did it first thing)
EDIT: Logging out and back in didn't work for me, today. Either it really has to be the very first thing you do each day, or something else is mucking it up for me.
First thing might be our grace. I logged out after the reset timer but had been online for the reset. I did one quickplay no reward, logged out and back in, did the quickplay before anything else an reward dropped.
The first thing I do as well. Select guide and quickplay. Select region change the difficulty and set it to public. This has worked every time for me. The logging in and out is just to do with the daily reset.

I've been doing quickplay first thing, before all the dailies, and getting the rewards as long as I do the workaround.
That was the only thing that stopped me, then the fix worked. Guess that is what makes it a workaround.
Edit. I was incorrect in that statement dude. I think the log might have solved my issue.

Exactly.

oh that explains my failure today

Today, logged on. First thing I did was the work around and quickplay. No reward. (10am central)
Logged off. Came back hours later. Same thing. No reward. (2:50pm central)
