    Submit a /bug report in game and may want to also submit a support ticket through the website. If the quest is bugged they need to know. A GM maybe can come in game and progress you in the quest depending on what the issue is. There were 20 of us stuck in Coldharbour a few days ago and a very nice GM came in and progressed all of us past a wall in a bugged quest so we could complete the quest.

    The alternative is to abondon the quest and start again.

    ...Or you could just teleport to a wayshrine outside of the quest area (i.e. the wayshrine in Vulkhel Guard). Exiting the area will force the quest to restart from the beginning, without having to abandon it.

    You can't teleport out of the quest instances, many people have posted about being stuck especially in this one as many players find it impossible to complete without leveling up some more.

    The only way is to log out for some time and then log back in and you'll find the instance has timed-out and your character is outside.

    You can't abandon the main quest line so if logging out for 15 minutes, which is the time it takes for the server dbase to refresh, doesn't fix it and you can't /stuck out of it, then a GM needs to help.

    Are you sure? I've teleported out on more than one occasion. The fight with Mannimarco is one recent example that comes to mind. My armor was shot and I was getting nowhere fast, so I just let myself die and then paid a modest fee to get the *** out of there.

    @emeraldbay you are correct about Mannimarco most definitely, it was the first time I couldn't find an exit from a quest which I had not managed to complete.

    I clearly remember the conversation with my Guildies who.........

    1:- Found it hilarious when I admitted how many times I had died.

    And

    2:- Informed me I could either pull up my map and transport to a wayshrine, or travel to one of them. I did the former. :D
    When people say to me........

    I sleep until midday cos I'm a problem solver!
