Bugged scroll quest in Cyrodil

Threemoons

Apols for crosspost; originally posted in Tech forum, but I see it belongs here now.

Okay, repeatedly get the same error on a quest even after abandoning and reclaiming: I am assigned to go get a Dominion scroll (I am Dominion on that toon) and go "join the fight for it."

Well, the scroll is spawning--consistently--in a solidly Dominion keep. When I go there, no invading army, no nothing.

Also, in general, Cyrodil seems to have some kind of memory leak as I randomly black out there vs almost never in the rest of the game.

I submitted a bug ticket, but are you aware of it? I have not gotten any feedback from the bugcheckers.

Thanks!

wait, so you have a quest to acquire a scroll, and you didnt acquire the scroll, so you came to the forum?

Threemoons

No, I go to acquire the scroll and I CAN'T. As in I am standing in front of the damn scroll, in a keep that my faction already owns, and nothing happens.

I'm not sure, but I think, there is a new bug (surprise) that might prevent taking a scroll from a captured keep. But you still should be able to take the scroll as long as the keep is not catured yet.

Btw:
You don't need a quest to pickup a scroll.

I'm guessing your faction is missing the required offensive or defensive scroll that matches that scroll. You can't touch it.

He said he's trying to take his own scroll (doninion toon/dominion scroll) from a keep.

Threemoons

Yes, the quest as given says to "reclaim the scroll" but the scroll is in our faction already, in a safe keep; when I show up, there is no fight for it.

For that mission if I'm reading this correctly you need to wait till it has been stolen and be on when it has been returned. Is this what you're talking about?

Tintinabula

you acquired the quest to take back the scroll and it was taken back when you were not in Cyrodiil....so..you have the quest to reclaim it but you did and will not receive credit until the scroll is lost again.

Now the "bug" seems to be that the quest giver is giving you that same quest even when your scroll doesn't need to be reclaimed after abandoning it. This should not happen. Am I getting this right?

Sounds to me like:
- Enemy previously stole Dominion scroll out of Dominion temple, and stored it in their keep.
- Dominion flipped that keep while the scroll was stored in it.
- Dominion player now cannot pick up Dominion scroll to return to Dominion temple because it is in Dominion keep.

Is that what's happening, @Threemoons‌ ?

The quest giver will give you scroll quests for scrolls your faction already owns sometimes.

its stupid. I know what the OP is on about and yes it is a bug that needs fixed.

A good example, if you own all six, it will give you the quest to get the last one your faction obtained a second time. If the last one was Ni-mohk, even if you were there for the ni-mohk turn in, Sorcalin will give you Ni-Mohk again.

Very true, and that of course shouldn't happen. (I think it only happens when you own all six?) If you have all scrolls, you shouldn't be able to get any scroll quests.
Similarly, if you have all keeps/resources, there shouldn't be any capture keep/resource missions available.

We don't have all 6 scrolls, but yeah, thank you for validating that this is a bug. Have heard zilch back from Zenimax on this yet.
