Complete 8 Thieves Guild Finder Quests ???

Freezbeez · July 11

Hello,
I have this in my weekly challenges:

Complete 8 Thieves Guild Finder Quests
Claimed: 0/3

The description says:
Complete Finder quests for the Thieves Guild.
Sign up for these unlawful adventures at the
Thieves Guild hideouts in Hew's Bane or
Daggerfall.

I'm doing the required quests, but my counter isn't going up.

Which quests are you doing?

I’m pretty sure these are the reacquisitions quests only, not heists or tip board. The Daggerfall reacquisitions don’t unlock right away, and those are the ones that can drop the new motif.

Very much agree with @tomofhyrule that you're probably doing the wrong ones. Spencer Rye's board in Hew's Bane is one and Josseline Madier's in Daggerfall is the other. You have to complete "Partners in Crime" to unlock Rye and you have to complete "The Codex Caper" to unlock Madier.

An unintuitive problem for many folks is that Madier is standing by the jobs board (doesn't count) while Kari is by the requisitions board (does count), but you turn in reacquisitions to Madier and turn in jobs to Kari. I'm sure those NPC placement decisions made sense to someone at the time they were made, but they don't make a lick of sense to me. I just live with it and remember that the wrong NPC is the right board.

EDIT: have to walk back part of that. Kari is not in the Daggerfall den unless you have a job to turn in. She's still the right NPC at the wrong board, but the reaquisitions board is not the one that Madier is standing by.

I've completed all three types of quests available in Daguefilante's Lair, as described in the quest description.

I don’t see Rye yet, so I’m going to progress through the story to bring him in.

It’s a shame there aren’t any explanations for how to progress; my game is in French, and we’re really left in the dark when it comes to instructions.

Thanks for the tip

I’ll come back to give some feedback.

I've done all dailies in Daggerfall thieves guild, finished the questline both in Hews bane and daggerfall thieves guild but 0 progress on the Complete 8 Thieves Guild Finder Quests.

I had the same problem, noticed that none of the dailies were ticking it up, and just rerolled it. Got safeboxes and already finished it.

Rye unlocks after you talk to Zeira following "Partners in Crime". He is sitting a a small table to your right as you enter the den from the cistern entrance (not the entrance outside the walls). He won't have anything to say/do until you complete "Partners in Crime", but as soon as you talk to Zeira and get your skill point, he'll send you to Shark's Tooth Grotto to retrieve the old sailor's pipe. When you come back from doing that, he'll be next to his board outside the cistern entrance. That's the only mission he actually gives you. The others are picked up from the board and then you turn them in to him.

For the Season One Tamriel Tome Weekly Challenge “Complete 8 Thieves Guild Finder Quests”, the only quest that gives credit / progress to this is Spencer Rye’s Reacquisition Quests received from Abah’s Landing.
After completing his initial quest “The Sailor’s Pipe”, the Tip Board next to his spot will offer one of 4 different quests on daily rotation.

Josseline Madier’s Reacquisition Quests obtained in Glenumbra’s Thieves Guild Tip Board do not give credit / progress to thie specific Weekly Challenge, nor do any other daily Thieves Guild quest. They will give credit / progress to the other Glenumbra Thieves Guild daily quest challenges. Whether this is by design or an oversight is unknown, ZOS shall have to clarify on this.

This has been tested and verified by my groups over 2 days. Screenshot below shows progress for 9 credits (8/8 claimed once for 200 Points, and 1 credit in progress). These quests can be shared by other players, so you may ask in Abah’s Landing zone “LF Thrall Cove quest” etc or similar to obtain more than one quest per character per day (to a max of 4 completes per character per day - note same rule applies for sharable daily quests, the same named quest cannot be repeated on the same character on the same day).

Hope this helps.
