Serpent and Fang quest

td4620_ESO
As the subject says I did this quest and turned it in and alas have not received the next quest in the chain to continue my quest arc in upper craglorn. I cannot get the quest again since it is not repeatable. Was in a group of 3 of my other guildies and 2 of having same issues. It didn't give me the marker for "Vanquish the progentior Mantikora". I have the delve achievement, but no next step in quest chain. Any insight would help.

    I got a similar problem:

    We did the first two quests witha a group of 4. 2 of us got the quest "Exalted Viper" (the 3rd one in the achievement) near the wayshrine when a NPC popped up and talked to them. The other 2, including me, were never approached by the NPC no matter how long we walk through the city.

    All 4 of us have the first 2 quests of 3 marked as done in the achievement tab. All 4 of us have done the Arena in normal mode and up to the endboss of round 8 in hardmode. None of us has done any new content with another group, we completely did the stuff only together.

    Would be very nice if we could get an official statement if the problem is a known issue.

    Check your achievement tab for Lower Crag quests. I heard that you have to have certain prerequisites before you can get the final quest, Exalted Vipe.

    Have you completed the lower craglorn quest line? I have completed it and got the quest and the group members that I was with doing the other quests couldn't get the Dawn of the Exalted Viper because they haven't completed the lower craglorn quest line, i.e. finished "Missing Guardian". It might be a worth looking into, otherwise, something else is definitely amiss

    Seems you are on the right spot there, as I could not finish one or two quests in lower crag because my group at that time disbanded and I couldn´t bother find people with the same quest instance which I have. My new group couldn´t help either as they could not enter my phase.

    If this really comes down to the superior grouping in this game again then I can only congratulate Zeni for messing up again - something which could be easily made so simple. Grouping in this game is just... makes me sad.

    They have fixed the grouping problems in the latest update, no longer do the others need to be on the part of the quest. You can even group with people that have completed the quest already in order for you to finish the quest. About time!

    You can not ;D For Craplorn quests everyone has to have the same quest. For example. I've already completed Warrior's Call and yesterday I was unable to help my friends with this quest. What is more, I can't finish the last quest, The Missing Guardian. I have to find 3 players who are exactly on the same stage of Craplorn quest line.

    This is the worst thing about it. I was at the last step "kill the air atronarch" and no one could enter with me to kill this damn thing. I tried countless times to solo it but at some point I gave up.

    Warrior´s Call the same as for 2 or 3 other quests. I started all these with randoms I found in zonechat, should be either possible to continue these quests with other randoms or not possible to start them at all.

    Now i have to abort every single quest and hope to find some people who haven´t started exactly the quests I need - y, hf finding a group in craglorn which doesn´t want to go hircines henge.

    I got 5 guilds and there is nowhere to find anybody to do these quests. It´s just a joke. Seems no nirncrux for me, earliest when it´s of zero value then. It´s kinda frustrating.

    I read so much posts like "this is a MMO you´re supposed to group bla bla bla" but where is the point if the devs make it so hard to complete quests? I wish there was a button where you could dumb down the difficulty of quests so they become as boring as the vet content is now. Did my templar on the old vet difficulty, started a twink which is now V1 and difficulty has been dumbed down so hard that I just can´t continue to level with questing, it´s so boring. My twink is a DK which makes the content easier anyway.

    I like the Elder Scrolls, im a vet in these games, but I am at a point where I cannot anymore find excuses for some really bad designed parts of the game. I just can´t imagine what kind of person thought this would be the right way to design grouping. I mean seriously, can you?

    Im looking forward to the answer of my support ticket. Maybe some devs will come and play the missing quests with me?

    I have all the lower Craglorn story quests done. This is very frustrating.

    I got an answer to my ticket:

    > I do realize this is rather inconvenient. However, the only option would be
    > to find a new group to finish Lower Craglorn, and catch up with your
    > friends. Once you begin Upper Craglorn, your friends should be able to join
    > you and help you advance to the point they are at in the quest lines.

    This weekend I had to realise it´s near to impossible to find players who have the same partial advancement in the quest of lower craglorn as I have. I even resetted all quests which were not completely finished to start over new with random players.

    Problem is that players who haven´t started lower craglorn yet search for players who also didn´t do ANY quest in lower craglorn because if they go to quest with someone like me they will end up in exactly the same situation as I am right now, means they will have some quests unfinished where I could not help them.

    Rather inconvinient is a description which does not hit the point exactly. I am totally screwed regarding the quests in craglorn now. What kind of MMO-Design is this?

    I guess I stand corrected. Bummer, I guess the guys that helped me finish one of the lower quests must not have finished the quest. Could have sworn they said they did.

    Ok, so today I managed to complete this quest <Serpent and Fang>. 2 of us had the quest, and 2 had already completed the quest from what they told me, I didn't see them interacting with any npcs, and no body was blocked. So seems to me if you completed the quest line you can help others that have not. But the other day when doing another quest in lower crag, one of the players was blocked, but I think he was at a different stage or did not have the quest, we lost a player mid way through so picked up a pug towards the end. Still need to finish that quest.. crag questing sucks!
