Greetings :)

I have a question about quests. Is there sucha thing when for some reason (bugs for example) getting a quest is blocked?
I mean i know from whom the quest can be got, i did all the others i know of, but still not get that particular one. So should i search further what other quests needed to be done to get that one or possibly not gettable this time? Quest name don't want to write here because not want to give OOC hints.
thanks in advance

So far I haven't come across any "bugs" for not getting a quest. Everyone I've talked to, who thought they had an issue, I've been able to trace back to legitimate reasons. Feel free to give me a nudge on IRC if you want to talk about it.

In the first post, you name the "Brintec fur research quest" as marked for "the next fix". It is never mentioned as fixed later, what's the status of this quest?

Sorry for the confusion. I had done some post consolidating and the wording is a bit confusing.

Yes, that quest has been fixed.

hi,
I'm back after a year of absence and i have tried to complete some old quest.
I'm stuck with "Vaieund book on Octarch's chess" I have the book from the last time i have played, but now is no wai to get the quest completed, Vaieund don't want the book!
Is a update problem or a common "get the rigth key" problem? :)

thanks,
f.

If you've been away for a year, you will need to find a gm in game (or myself is you see me) to help get you back on the right track from the fix going in. You can also try IRC for locating someone.

First of all, let me congratulate everyone who has been working on the quests, they are fantastic. I've almost finish a particular quest, but I found it very hard  because the NPC did not accept the right sentence which was something like Thr[...] the Dw[...] [....] where I have removed many letters to avoid spoilers, but it did accept  Thr[...] Dw[...] [....] , where you remove the "the".

I spent quite a lot of time on it before I found a post where a similar issue happened which helped me.
Perhaps, you could also make the NPC understand similar answers (which I have tried), such as "in the sky", "above your head..."

(we should perhaps erase this post once it has been treated to avoid spoiler).

The quest I am referring to is D[...] W[....] wants the messenger b[...].

Can you please either e-mail me directly, including your character name and details or fill out a petition in game so that I can get all the information I need to address your issue.

First, let me say that the following has no effect on completed quests, only quests that are in progress.

The following quests have been updated to fix issues:

  • Drinks in the Deep
  • Talad's Eyes and Ears
  • Ineffective Affections
  • Govell Mihdren Needs Tattoo Ink

If you are currently working on these quests, please try continuing from the point at which you were last at and if that does not work try going to the point at which you were assigned the quest.

If you have any issues, please file a petition in game, PM me with details, or give me a nudge on IRC and we can work out issues on a case by case basis.

I apologize if this issue has been addressed elsewhere, but the NPCs are acting as though they don't want quests to be completed.

I have tried to work on three quests (since the installation of 0.4.03), and in all three the NPCs have refused my trades.

The quests are:
  • Liera's supplies
  • Vladovic needs dried Maajo
  • Lori's little delivery

Thank you for any help, and sorry if this is the wrong place to post this question.

We have found a small issue which should be correct at this time; however if we restart the issue may come back until we have time to catch the right people tomorrow. So please be patient, I'll post back here when all looks good.

Greetings,

The quest "Saving Easamau's family home" seems to be bugged for my character. I've wasted alot of time trying to get an npc (K[...] J[...]) to accept my trade to give him what he requests (in response to "about t[...]") and had no success. So i've made a new character to get to this point in the quest (there goes another couple of hours) and it turns out the npc accepts a simple "yes" which it still does not for my other character (so i gave this character what he is supposed to get from that npc but now i cannot get D[...] W[...] to accept my trade).

I would also like to say that i find the quest system frustrating and terrible.

I'm sorry that you feel that way, but if you put this information in a petition (from the character with the issue) I'll be glad to take a look when I'm in game. If you already have, I've been away a bit moving and it's the start of the quarter so work is busy and I"ll be playing "ketchup" with petitions tonight and tomorrow.

I'm having an irritating problem with a certain quest, I won't say which one but suffice to say that a certain librarian keeps saying that he will sell me some ink and paper in exchange for some tria and then, when said tria is offered the trade is declined. I can't complete several quests at the moment due to bugs like this. In another case I simply need to inform someone that some mail has been delivered. I believe I've tried every possible combination of words under the sun to convey the message but still with no luck. Other quests I can start but halfway through find that I have no-where near the necessary skills to complete and so must put them aside for what will probably take months to achieve. All this is very frustrating and I think it would be worth the developers considering putting in some form of basic requirement checking and spending a bit more time debugging and testing quests before making them available to the rest of the user community.

Other than that, great game. I love it.

as for the first it's a limitation of the engine. if you untarget him he won't remember offering you that. Just start again to ask for ink and paper and *DON'T* untarget him
