I'm on Wing of Gryphon quest and cannot progress as NPC does not appear. Do not want to give spoilers but I'm at penultimate stage of stealing something - in the delve.

Have submitted feedback and asked for help and in questing part of forum have posted much more detail. No replies at all as yet.

Anyone else unable to progress this?

    Yup, right now I had exactly the same problem and from the way they behaved, a fellow player did, too. The NPC simply did not appear, not even /reloadui helped. I eventually left the place back through the portal and reentered. The second time the NPC was there and had its appropriate quest marker on them, so I eventually managed to finish this long and tedious quest.

    Only 18 more characters of this... :(

    sadly many of the quest items for these quests are not "instanced" like the part where you pick flowers, and the ghost you have to pickpocket

    i think next update will be resolving a lot of these issues though

    i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them

    feel free to stop by and use the facilities

    They did mention in the last incremental that you would no longer have to compete with other players for the quest objectives. I assumed they meant the ghost step specifically, but they may have meant the flowers.

    I know normally if I had this issue I just log out with that character in place and come back 5-10 minutes later and the NPC spawned.

    If the ghost is still not instanced, sounds like a reportable /bug.

    Resolved by abandoning quest and redo. It sucks that Beth has no better answer than drop / redo quest and is a bad reflection on them that they release such buggy content. I used to program [a variety of things in different languages] a life time ago! I know how hard it is to get things right sometimes. I also know that for a consumer who pays for the product this looks really bad.

    Happy gaming all and thanks for the input.

    If it's pickpocketing the ghosts, the issue is that they don't respawn frequently enough. Both times I did it, I just had to wait a long time before one appeared (it was confusing the first time).

    So there is a better answer than drop/redo, and it's why they're making it easier next patch. I don't think it's bugged, just slow to respawn and a bit confusing if there are no ghosts available.

    Hold on, why on 18 characters lol? You get the accountwide upgrades for doing it once. Unless you're farming ink, which is cheap enough now (on PC NA, idk about other platforms) that you can more effectively farm mats in Craglorn if it's troublesome.

    Did the quest now 5 times - never had an issue with that

    if its the pickpocketing one - he takes quite a long round through the town in Rift

    and there are still several other options (you just need 3 of those) to complete the quest if you are stuck at one

    Are there more options than one? I've always gone northish to the river then swim to the right until I can get out on the bank, and then sneak down along the bank - there's always for me been one right there as far as you can go.

    The last time, there was another "sneaker" already there; I waited until she had made her move, then made mine, and we both got the stuff.
