Quest bugs while grouped in Galen so far

Kirawolfe · November 2022

Hi. Been doing quests with a friend. We had to restart it when we got to Tuinh, and it seemed to be because we picked up the firebloom before the altar clue. The altar clue went away and we couldn't progress.

Then, we were to meet Lauren before the Draoife. I talked to her, and saw Stefan come to talk to her. My friend talked to her, and got nothing after that - no Stefan.

He also didn't get quest markers for the Telling Stone, so he had to follow me.

When we got there, Frii and the rest were there, but he had no quest markers?

Please address the group questing issues in this zone.

When I got there I saw two quest markers. My friend logged off, came back and could see both.

When he returned I only had one quest marker over Frii.

Now it's telling me to talk to the druid, and there's a marker on the compass, but no marker above her?

Logging off and coming back gave me the quest marker again.

This is frustrating.

Doing quests as a group has always been a problem in ESO. Nothing new.
If you don't want bugs, do the quests yourself.
This is the lesson my husband and I have learned after 3 years of playing.
We do the quests at the same time and close, but without being in a group.

Fantastic. We were able to do Greymoor prologues, all of Blackwood, the Deadlands, and all of High Isle, without these kinds of issues, while grouped.

Since this is the first time I've experienced this, and it's clearly not meant to be like this, I'm posting here.

With wife we didn't have ANY problem to do ALL quest except some faction grouped. Then High Isle came out with bugged dailies and delve quests, then daedlands dailies and story bugged quests... Now should be all bugged quest fixed from HI and DL. We was glad that we managed to do High Isle story together.
Now Galen story same bug with group but at least we didn't have any problem with dailies.

What is strange is.. wife completed Galen prologue and she can use that emote only on that character .... She can't use it on other alts...

If you are grouped you can't both learn books. If one learn one book, often that book disappears. Some time it is found in the inventory to learn, sometimes is completely missed, so one of us has to quit and re-do the quest. That's the reason why we do quests separately. In High Isle we had problems also to pick up items requested by the quest: when grouped some items were impossible to pick up. And we had problems also for some dailies: one boss daily was impossible to finish being grouped for the items to collect.

Im having this bug with main story Deadlands playing with my sister. I've only bought this and Necrom to play with her. Is there no fix? Will it happen in Necrom too?
Please if anyone knows of a fix let me know.

My problem is that in quest Deadlight my sister interacted first with the quest item so it disappeared for me. I tried login out and breaking group.

We've done tons of stories before, all the chapters and we never had this bug before. It appearead with deadlands.

I played the entirety of High Isle alone, with 9 different characters across two servers. I only had ONE character get through without major bugs that cause multiple relogs, drops and restarts, etc. Left such a bad taste in my mouth, I've not spent a cent in/on the game since then. That's only to say I can't confirm that Necrom may have similar issues, but I would say it's a safe bet. If you're one of the unlucky ones that roll the buggy version, you're outta luck.

Well, if it's any consolation, I've found Necrom to be much more polished than High Isle. Only a couple of bugs so far and no missing textures yet!
