The mages guild won't give me any more quests. I'm currently level 22 and around level 15 I should have recieved the mission called "Simply Misplaced". I have danced around every single mages guild waiting for the guy to appear but he just doesn't Sharing the quest also doesn't work. Anyone have any solutions?

    I received the Mages Guild level 15 quest in Ashcroft (sp?) in Glenumbra (DC), not in a Mage Guild.

    Which alliance are you? In AD I found Shalidor in Skywatch standing outside the mages guild. In DC I get in that Ashcroft place. Don't remember about EP.

    It appeared that you need to have a guild level of 2 to receive the quest. By picking up lorebooks I got it to work finally

    It is linked to the mage guild levels is what I'm thinking. I kept finding all teh lore books I could and when i hit level 2, the next time I was near a mage guild he was standing outside waiting for me.

    Yeah I'm also having an issue with this, I stopped getting quests after the initial one with cheesemongers hollow, it's possible I missed some thing so i'll go back again and look...

    But I've looked multiple times to find nothing lol

    It's based off of your mage's guild level, too. You need Mage's Guild rank 5 to get the final quest in the line. Once you're eligible for a quest, Shalidor will appear near any Mage's Guild building you go near to breadcrumb you into the quest.

    I hope someone can help me with this. I have the quest 'Simply Misplaced' but can't find 'Valaste'. The map marker shows her location at the Lighthouse outside Vulkhel Guard. Marker shows I should enter. I go in, marker then shows she is above me, I go up to next floor, marker then shows she is below me, go back down. Can't find her.

    I need confirmation of this. I am level 37 and only 3 in Mage guild. My next Mage quest is the lvl 33 quest "chateau of the ravenous rat." The npc valaste is there and talks about the mission but there's no quest marker. I wasn't sure if I needed rank 4 to do it. Then the last quest you say needs rank 5.

    i can't find Valaste for the Simply Misplaced Quest. She is nowhere to be found. the quest says at the Mages Guild but she isn't to be found anywhere. sigh. I swear I hate auridon. it's one thing after another and i keep having to come back in a day just to see if a "broken" bugged quest is fixed so I can finish it. this one is still "broken" I see and this is day 3..HELP!

    ahhh ok that makes sense. When you first join the magies guild the woman states how they collect books and knowledge.

    why is every response here off topic? jesus there are those of us who actually need help with this quest - not other quests.

    I'm having the same problem with the quest where I have to "Talk to Valaste". She is not at the Mages Guild in Skywatch and when I was in Vulkhel Guard, it showed she was in the Lighthouse right outside of Vulkhel but she is definitely not there. Any idea where I can find her?

    It isn't broken. I'm up to the lvl 43 quest though I'm a few lvls off being able to do it. Just wait. I waited a whole day before I got a few to advance so paitence. The next quest I have to do is the one after I have collected the last book.

    Ok I have an update here. I found Valaste. You need to go to Skywatch and see the scout on the docks, take a boat to the next area and the map marker will show you the way. I found out from someone in game, I wish I could remember their name to give them proper credit.

    *Note

    If you are anywhere in the south near Vulkhel Guard the map marker will lead you to the lighthouse. This is confusing and incorrect. Just go to Skywatch like I said.

    Valaste moves to the main Mages Guild in each new area but need the levels in the guild to open it via finding lore books.

    For those of you in Ebonheart Pact, Valaste is in the Mages Guild in Mournhold, Deshaan (the next zone south of Stonefalls).

    Awesome. I was also having trouble with this... went to the Skywatch docks and met Scout Linimondil. she takes you to Grahtwood to meet Valaste. :)

    Thanks for help, only had to read 6 posts down to know what to do! :)

    For me i did have lvlv 2 mages guild and could not find the quest for Simply Misplaced. I could talk to Valaste in Vukkhels Guard mage hall but no dice. I decided to go collect a bunch of Shalidors library lore books, got all 10 from auridon and when i ported to Elden Root Wayshrine and good old Shally popped up to give me the quest! Hope that helps.
