    In the quest Seeds of Destruction, Sir Stefen appeals to make his arrival with audio queue at Glimmertarn before you get to the stage when he should.

    In the quest Seeds of Destruction, Sir Stefen appeals to make his arrival with audio queue at Glimmertarn before you get to the stage when he should.

    He does. He also stays after his part is over. I found him and that group still there in the next quest. I found that one of the NPCs with Stefan actually got a quest marker too early. However, in its proper place in its quest, the encounter worked properly. They are just permanently spawned right there.

    Different issue - I finally hit a spot where you can no longer advance in the main questline. I was able to complete all of the Galen zone quests. I then started on the epilogue quests. I finished the first one (no spoilers) and went into the second one. I'll try to be oblique as possible here:

    At one point, you have a "Summoned Creature" to defeat. However, the creature appeared to be dying too quickly and would not drop loot and advance the quest. Finally after four logouts, I managed to loot the creature and advance the quest. However, the very next thing you do is "examine stone carvings". The NPC asking you to do this disappeared on me and the stone carvings were not interactable. I logged in and out a couple of times and even shut the entire client down and restarted once. I do see some enemy NPCs up on an inaccessible ledge, and NPCs jumping down and joining the fight was a part of the summoned creature encounter. I guess that even though I finally got the summoned creature to flag as defeated, the still-spawned enemy NPCs are blocking progress. Or maybe not. I'm not looking at code.

    I submitted several bug reports about non-advancement.
    Been there, got the Molag Bal polymorph.

    Yeah, I hit the same thing on the Ivory Throne quest.

    I got it to advance passed the Summoned Creature twice by killing everything slowly but, the Druid runs inside one of the stone carvings and you can talk to her while she's in it but the carvings can't be interacted with.

    In a Heart Turned Black we get to the vine blocked door, power water on all the Mote plants and kill everything but the Druid only follows one around and talks about Firewrathes. Tried the quest 2 times from start with same result

    Lots of phasing issues. Lauren appears in no less that 3 locations within meters of each other in her village all visible at the same time.

    Also ran into a progress-stopping issue in the cave where you and Lauren go to look for Frii. Ther are 3 carvings to look at and then nothing after that except a small passage at the end of the cave saying "You do not meet the requirements to enter."

    Abandoned that and retried and ran into same issue.

    There's a captain something or other you fight near that entrance although his spawn seemed to be triggered by others entering that room, not me, and he drops nothing to advance the quest.

    Edit: tried it 2 more times and finally, the last "hot spots" became interactable and I was able to progress. It was a pain though because abandoning that quest sets you way back and you need to go find the sacred fire again, light the fire, etc.

    Some of the npc's in the Cathedral District of Vastyr seem to be incomplete/incorrect.

    Erline Rorielle for example is set to Justice Neutral and cannot die.

    Others I could use the blade of woe on but, couldn't pickpocket.

    Unsure if this is the right spot to put it, but wearing Syrabane's Ward disallows you from mounting. You can put it on once you're on your mount and it's fine. But if you have it on and try to mount, you instantly dismount.


    ETA - This is regarding getting on your mode of transport... -.-
    ETA - Reposting this over in the mythics thread. I am derp.

    I'm at that spot now and advanced past the fight several times (if the fight fails, just leave that room the way you came in and the creature will be summoned again) and have watched the druid run into that stone several times and I can't interact with them to advance the quest.

    I'm done till next week and hopefully, it'll be less alpha then.

    In City Under Siege, the part where it says to rendezvous with Sir Stefan Mornard appears to be bugged. he has the quest marker above his head, and seems to follow me, execpt when i talk with him, he just says "By the Green, it's good to see you and Captain Siravaen!". i can only exit the conversation with goodbye.

    this appeared to fix itself after i progressed through the area through the tunnels.

    Towards the end of the City under Siege quest, I found Fayda urging Galphen to stay within the city. However,
    after the quest, Galphen says that he hasn't seen her since she went to the cathedral during the attack, implying that she was one of the casualities. So they must be running a step behind in the script. Also, there's some rubble and an invisible wall in front of the cathedral before it gets destroyed it probably be better the area in front the cathedral wasn't accessible at all until that quest.

    Yes, Ivy throne, Druid is inside one of the stone, that if you get close enough (kissing the stone) you can interact with her, however, cannot interact with carvings, I have reloaded, logged out, abandoned and came back, and still nope, not interaction with carvings.

    Four days later, I tried again. I was not quick enough to see that the Druid is placing herself inside one of the carvings. But I can confirm that is where she is and that you can position yourself to speak to her. But I still cannot interact with the carvings. It's probably more to do with this NPC's placement than the enemy NPCs above.

    Oh, well! Maybe on the next NA cycle I will be able to advance past this point. And there's always actual launch.
    Been there, got the Molag Bal polymorph.

    Speaking of The Ivy Throne (where I'm stuck before the carving like everybody else), I think something should be changed about the Ascended Battlemage in the library. I heard her shouting about the crown before I started the quest, presumably because another player was there. It's a bit of spoiler and disruption.

    The fight with the summoned creature in the Ivy Throne quest is still bugged if the creature is killed fast (and it can easily be-buff the poor thing :))

    Luckily though the workaround still works: leave the room the way you came in and re-enter and the creature will be re-spawned.

    I had to kill it 3 times - the last time just occasionally light attacking and I let it drain my health a few times (although the creature doesn't seem to be healing from that any longer) until the adds arrived.

    Killing the 3 adds still isn't a guarantee that it will complete successfully though. I did that on the second try then killed the summoned creature and it still didn't complete.

    On the final try when it worked I still let the summoned creature live for a while after I had killed the adds. I thought maybe there would be a second wave but there wasn't. The creature just did a jump into the air and I killed it after that and it finally worked.

    So I wasn’t sure where to post this because this is not a bug per say but a problem with the translation. When the other characters talk about Frii and the Guardian in English, all the characters use the pronouns « They » to talk about them individually. But in the text in French, they are referred as « She » for Frii and « He » for the guardian. The correct translation is « iel », which is the French equivalent of « they ».

    Not sure if this is Zone based but since the "book" is on at least 2 walls in Vastyr: you missed to add an eidetic memory entry for the quest-starter book "Swords Needed for House Mornard"
