Summerset: "Illusions of Grandeur" bugged quest

Chief_Wiggums

During this quest you are asked to "Find Pavo's story" but the book you need to read is bugged because it is inside the stone walling so you cannot click on it to progress the quest. I submitted a ticket and they told me to post it here if their suggestions didn't fix the issue. Thank you.

I have the exact same issue, I also submitted a bug report (with screenshot attached).

I also have the exact same issue guess zos never fixed it.

Also ran into it. A shame, since I really like the quest so far.

EDIT: Managed to fix it! Quitting the game and logging back in, while the character was standing next to the books, made the right book appear.

Realized I never came back here. Just wanted to say that this fix worked for me as well. In-case zos still hasn't fixed this in the future.

Yep, this quest is still bugged at "Follow Erudil" - logging out and logging back in fixes it.

Reporting that this quest is STILL bugged. I followed Erundil but then he just stood around doing nothing.

Still bugged. I had to relog in order to get Erundil to do anything, but now that I'm actually collecting the books in the Academy Stacks, I can't put them on their shelves. The activation point just says "bookshelf" and doesn't do anything.

EDIT: I decided after typing that that I wasn't going to post it, as I've already sent a bug report in-game, but my stubbornness got the better of me while playing and I found a workaround:

Go into first person mode, and face to the right or left of the bookshelf, maybe a foot in front of the shelf, and you should find the activation point to place the book. I found that blacklisting "bookshelf" using an addon helped me to not accidentally read something.

The first book was a pain in the ass to replace, as the sweet spot is kind of small, but I finally managed to complete the quest.
