    You can't share favor quests, can you?

    Doubt that will do anything. There are 2 initial parts to Lady Arabelle’s 20th Favor - pick up quest from board, then Read letter from board.

    Someone can share it, but that only fulfils the “pick up” part. You still need to read the letter from the board to progress to the next step in Stormhaven. Back to square one.

    Could have a possible work around I haven't tried it yet but if 2 people in a group have the quest then one travels to stormhaven and the other then shares the quest and then reads the notice will it update the other persons quest if there already in Stormhaven ? havent tried this myself yet but could be worth trying

    We were able to squeeze this fix into U50 Inc. 3, happening on Aug. 10. However, this does need to go live and tested for us to verify the fix worked as intended. This issue only showed up on the Live Server and not our internal environments. So that is why we need to verify on the live server.

    Can Orcs and Wood Elves pray to Trini-cath and Y'ffre or is it only ALMSIVI who will answer our prayers?

    That is indeed good news. I am intrigued by this part though: "This issue only showed up on the Live Server and not our internal environments."

    I can envision several reasons that may be the case, and I'm left pondering a wider question. There are many bugs that players report that ZOS "seem" to ignore. Is this because ZOS are checking the bug on the internal environment and not Live which, given what you just said, do not align with one another?

    FYI: I have tried every possible route and none work. The moment you leave that specific instance of Glenumbra the quest deletes itself.

    the read letter.from board quests from the board are pre-existing quests that you get assigned to do from the board.if you have done the quest already, when you get assigned it from the board it immediately highlights the "read letter" part, after which you can turn it in.

    If theres a problem with one of these has it been tried to do the assigned quest first? then get the quest from the board?

    My guildmates completed this quest today. If you're careful, the quest disappears from requests after moving, but appears in the location's quests. After completing it, you can turn it in at the board.

    I'll be doing it tomorrow, checking everything out, and reporting back.

    Didn't the map UI have a list of quests for that specific area, too? Somewhere on the right side? Perhaps it's listed there somehow despite disappearing from the quest menu? I can't check right now.

    You're wrong. Previous freerunners quests indeed was the compilation of killing random bosses, feeding cats and completing old sidequests. But the last favours is new personal patrons' quests (in old basegame locations, yes), so you cannot just read gratefull letter and immediately turn the quest in like before.
    Trust me, I know what I'm saying, I've completed all old sidequests and I know when I see a new one (with new books and new - ahem, let's say - story)

    This isn't a pre-existing quest. I've done all the quests in the game and this doesn't lead to one of them.

    It deletes itself as soon as you leave that specific Glenumbra instance. Going to a house or deleve or the PD in Glenumbra and the quest vanishes.
