Has anyone have tips for the Parley Quest. I have tried it several times and the queen keeps dying. I target the mouse, green circle over incoming enemy troops but in the 5th or 6th round the queen dies. Any help appreciated.

    I did this quest yesterday and failed on the first try. Got it on the second one, though.
    The best I can suggest is to just keep an eye on your compass and watch for the red dots (enemies), and lay down the circle as fast as you can.
    The quest isn't bugged, it just takes time.

    Thank you, it is good to hear someone got through it. I lay down the green circles as fast as I can for oncoming enemies. One thing I will add is using the X to lay down or place the circles and use my mouse(left click) to target or fire spells. Before,I was just pressing the X and nothing else.

    Solved it- I was placing the circles with the X, but not firing the spells with the left click of the mouse. That solved the quest.

    Anyways, it's a very badly designed quest, camera doesn't work well because of the platform you're standing on and it can take time to drop down the spell in a correct position, time which, at the final waves, you don't have and the queen dies.. To add to that, mages NPC's stand in the way and, because of collision detection, you have to go around them to be able to place the spell correctly sometimes falling down to the combat ground.. Badly designed quest and, luckily, the only one of this kind I met so far in the game (I'm VR6)

    Not a fun quest!!! Very difficult because of the issues already stated plus a VERY annoying LONG dialogue each time you re-try it.
    7th time was the charm for me!

    This quest has me on the verge of uninstalling the game....


    ...It doesn't help that I hate protection quests of any type (same with escort quests) .....I wish we had the option of skipping dialog we have already heard.

    I can't even SEE the targeting circles, let alone aim them - and it has this shortcut listed 'Press Y+B to target spells' no clue what that even means - quest for me is totally impossible.
