I picked up the first favor from the board in Ebonheart for EP players. The favor was to kill a delve boss in Shadowfen. After receiving the Favor quest, I used J to open my Journal and then I selected the quest from the new Favors category. I selected M for the Show on Map option and I was presented with the map of Stonefalls and not the map of Shadowfen.

Willowgrove is in Reaper's March, not Auridon

Lady Davaux sent a duplicate message after completing a quest for her.

I'm not on PTS this cycle, but this made me wonder: Does the player character ever interact with the npc, or is the only interaction with the bulletin board? If so, how does the player character get the items they need to deliver? Surely the sweetrolls weren't pinned to the board?

For this one, they were in a special box in the board area. Each of the boards has a courier-like NPC nearby.

It all seems pretty well thought out for how these tasks are arranged.

OK, seems someone has a sense of humor (or a it's bug; either works). Three potential issues: (1) the daily quest marker for this was pointing at an empty piece of ground in Vulkhel Guard near the warehouses, (2) the arrow was accurately labeled as "Holgunn's Favors" although Hollgunn is the Pact Favor, and (3) none of the four showing could actually be accepted.

Found the proper board in Skywatch. First one that I picked up was to "Deliver Sweetrolls to Willowgrove in Auridon" except that Willowgrove is in Reaper's March.

Found Holgunn's real board in Ebonheart with the favor to kill a delve boss in Shadowfen. Nothing unusual about that one except that the reward generated two identical letters from Holgunn.

Final for the day was Lady Arabella's in Aldcroft. Same quest (kill a delve boss in Rivenspire) and nothing unusual about it except that it also generated two identical letters upon completion.

One helpful thing would be to make the Freerunner boards visible on the town maps. They show up just fine on the compass HUD, but not on the map until discovered.

Perhaps not the proper thread to be raising this issue, but this is present on the live servers and it happens in the same locations as the Freerunner boards, so maybe it can get rolled into U50. Leane Luseph is a new NPC with U49 which points the player to the new Hircine shrines in the first alliance zones, and she has a daily quest marker. The distance at which her "come talk to me" dialogue is audible to the player is fairly large and seems to be larger than the distance at which her quest marker is visible. Perhaps either reduce that audio distance or make her daily marker visible on the compass HUD at whatever the audio radius is?

Update to my previous. I started off with Lady Arabella's favor today. It was the same quest as last time (delve boss in Rivenspire), still generated two letters upon completion (the curated reward stuff dropped just fine, though), but the two letters were identical to the two I received two days ago.

The letter from Lady Dauavx is still sending duplicates.
