Cannot Turn in Daily Writs - Stuck

I had a full set of Daily Writs from yesterday. When I went to turn them in today I was only able to turn in Provisioning and Alchemy and then the arrows over the rest of the boxes vanished and I am unable to turn in the remaining writs. Moreover, I am not able to get new ones as the game thinks that these are still outstanding. So now I am stuck with daily writs I cannot turn in and I am unable to get new ones.

- I have logged off, signed out, ported to different places, changed characters, etc. Nothing resolves this.
- I am not able to pick up any new writs except the ones that I turned in (alchemy, provisioning), none of the others can be turned in or picked up.
- I do not have any add-ons enabled.

EDIT: I was able to just Abandon the Writ Quests For Now. I Still cannot pick them up today, but we will see what happens tomorrow.


@ZOS_Kevin - I have filed a support ticket about this: 240404-002560 - Would you be able to have someone look into this please? Thank you

    Have you tried relogging or porting to a different town?

    though usually not the issue, make sure inventory space exists for both boxes that are generated.

    Made it through half of my characters and then this started for me as well. Only Daily Alchemy was available after turn in.

    Restarted the game, changed locations, same issue

    The fact that the alchemy one was available suggests you might be running into the cycle issue.

    Did you get the other writs three days ago? Most have a three-day cycle, so if you picked them up three days ago (or any multiple thereof), you would not be able to get today's, since they would be the same quest ID as the ones you just turned in.

    This may be in fact the issue. It was only 4 of my total characters and I had grab some of them each day over the last few days.

    Thanks @ZOS_Kevin I appreciate it. Like I said, I will check tomorrow morning and see if I can claim them again after abandoning.

    Greetings,

    This thread has been moved to the General Help section, as it is better suited there.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    @ZOS_Kevin - Looks like things were ok today. Hard to say what happened but it looks like the writs prior to the Anniversary event were marked "unfinished" when the event started. Once I abandoned them, I could pick up writs the next day.

    Thanks for your help with this
