As stated in the title, me and a lot of other players have had trouble with "The Light Fantastic" quest in the Bthanual cave in Deshaan. its simply uncompletable because the light which was suppose to came from the stone is not appearing.
The quest is suppose to be played as seen in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmM5FIB_lKo but instead it end up like seen in the pictures. (no light appearing) as the pictures show i have the quest and the other pictures show the location of the quest.

    yep, same problem here. There was 10+ people and noone could see laser beams so everyone was just standing there and waiting for some miracle.

    I had this problem yesterday evening when there were a lot of people on, so I left it and came back to do it this morning when there was not much traffic, it seems that the more people there are in the same instance doing the same quest tends to bug it out for everyone involved, I did end up completing it in the end, if you do go and do it when there is less traffic, also make sure you have abandoned it before you enter as you can pick it back up again when you get in, this is just a precaution in case the system still has you logged as doing it the day before when it was still bugged out.

    You should not have to wait for a time with less traffic but since the game went B2P there is an influx of players coming back again, maybe some more instancing will help alleviate this problem, not just for this quest but for others as well, as there may be others affected by this too. Fingers crossed there is not :)

    Hope this helps, happy gaming and have a good one my fellow Elder thingys!! B)

    Hey there folks,

    We are aware of the issue with this quest and we are investigating a fix. We have a suggested workaround that may help out:
    1. Abandon the quest
    2. Wait for 20 minutes to reset the instance
    3. Re-accept the quest
    4. Zoom your camera all the way out as you play through the quest
    5. The lights should now be visible.

    Let us know if this helps or not!

    Hey there @Efed,

    There may be a wall behind you, but just to be 100% sure, did you pull the camera out as far out as it can possibly go during the quest?

    Yes, shure! Also trying to turn off addons, do not help.

    Yup... same. This workaround does NOT work. I don't know how many people have to say that for it to be heard either.

    Since they got rid of the beams from the staves - this appears to have gotten rid of all beams in the game. THAT is the problem.

    This quest can be completed without the beams - but man oh man it takes a LOT of trial and error. Took me about an hour to complete it.
