Quest Completion Issues

[socharis]

Playing SP.

Throughout For Joy I noticed a half of the quests I did weren't registering as "closed." I'd complete them (smash Withermore's soul jar, cure the burning pigs and kill the undead that takes umbrage, etc;), but they just wouldn't close. So at the end of Fort Joy I leave on the ship and the quests all closed saying I failed (didn't free Withermore, left without helping the pigs, etc;).

Had this happen with the following quests:

1. The Imprisoned Elf
2. The Burning Pigs
3. Withermoore's Soul Jar

It also happened with 'The Arena of Fort Joy' (it wouldn't let me challenge my companions after the first round), but I'm assuming it's a MP thing so it might not be a bug.'

'Signs of Resistance' neither closed nor moved to the 'I, The Godwoken' category in the journal with other the cross-act quests. Just stayed under 'Escape from Reaper's Eye.'

I too have this problem with:

• Call to Arms (wants me to speak to Gareth about getting ready or w/e, but we've already got the ship together)
  
• The Imprisoned Elf (it says to talk to Saheila, which I've done ands gotten my reward alread)
  
• The Arena of Fort Joy (tells me to talk to the Thorny One about what to do next, already did this, gotten reward and collar off, yadda yadda)
  
• The Burning Pigs (this is a bit different as I manage to get Feder to the pool of water at the shrine but I can't bless it or w/e even tough I already did the stuff surrounding that)
  
• Withermoore's Soul Jar (we destroyed it. ok so now what.)

Possible some other ones but these are the big ones for me. I don't want to continue to the next act without this fixed! :(

It's because you're not done with the quest yet. If it doesn't register as (ended) it's not a bug, it just means you haven't fully completed the quest yet. Game leaves a lot open, especially if you mess up a dialogue choice and then have to figure out what to do next from there with a vague message, etc.

^ So is a quest that is called The Imprisoned Elf is not closed and "not done" after the elf is clearly free and safe in the cave, that's not a bug in your opinion? Quest not "fully completed"? Are you... for real?

[hs0j]

I'm 100% for real because I completed this quest, just as you stated, and did all of the steps and when I left the island for Act 2 I got the prompt that I "left Amyro to his fate" which means that I didn't complete all the steps of the quest.

The quests OP mentioned wasnt completed in my run too although Amyro is rescued, Withermoore's jar is broken and the I won the fight in the arena and removed the shackle.

I have lots of "unfinished" quests like this. This is a very annoying bug.

[BigBadWhale]

Same here!

I freed Amyro and walked with him to Saheila. They talked, we talked. He asked me to look for their people when I leave the island so they can rescue Saheila. I think this is the task you should try to complete but I am not that far in the story. She on the other side said she don't want to be rescued.

I tried tweeting at Larian asking if they were aware of people having these issues but unfortunately no response :/

The imprisoned elf quest is 100% bugged, Withermoore's isn't as it ends only if you have him help you with the barrier inside the cave. Not sure about the pigs quest.

Same issue here, I wonder if it's just the log that's buggy.
Because I still got the rewards for most quests, they just didn't close in the log.
Still annoying but not too bad, though if the bugs extents further like getting locked out of other quests or dialogue options it would stop me from playing until this gets fixed.

Good news, they are aware of the problem and are working on a patch for this week.

I too have problems. I tried hard to complete most of the quests, but they never marked as completed. Left the island and all of them closed in, seemingly failed. There should be multiple ways to mark a quest complete. I would see Withermoore's Jar quest complete if I broke the jar and released his soul like he wanted to happen. Also, the Amyro quest, it says talk to Saheila. I talk to Saheila. Quest still stuck. :/

any chance you can link the source of this statement ? and would u happen to know an eta

[Sparhawk122]

Same. Got the rewards for completing the quests but did not close in the log.

The Withermore quest is stupid. If you do not require his help it should close either way. You still completed 'your' task.

Obviously with the amount of people complaining about this it is a sh!t mechanic.
