Breaking the Ice [ Still bugged After Update ]
I had high hopes that this quest would be fixed with the update and I even reported the bug to the community but after the update this quest is STILL bugged. Once again, Elsa will not do what she is supposed to but I did notice something while reading through the quest itself that could be why the quest is bugged.

I am stuck on the step "Follow Elsa into the Ice Cavern" and of course she will wander around like normal and as though her house is done when the quest isn't finished. Before this step however you have two parts there is the making of the potion but then it will say "Enter the Ice Cavern" before you are done breaking the ice outside of the cavern. This might be why the quest is glitched because it might think that us breaking the ice outside is us breaking it inside. I don't know, I just know that it seems weird to say to enter the cavern before we break the ice outside.

I have done progress through Kristoff's quests (got him to level 10, did that quest and then did the one after which had me speak to Elsa) and that didn't unbug this quest. Mostly was going off suggestions that I saw. Also running all through the area in case there was an 'invisible' ice block I somehow missed didn't work. Reporting that this bug was still active I got a generic response from the team that the update was launched (yes I know) and to update the game and to make sure all devices are updated and such.

This is still so frustrating because this has been the ONLY quest I've had that has bugged out for me. And it's needed for certain parts of progression (Like the Pickaxe upgrades I'm sure) so I'm... stuck... here's to hoping they figure things out and actually fix it next patch/hotfix.

I don't think the follow quests have completely been fixed. However my personal experience has been that since the patch if you have one of the follow quests are your active quests the NPC will follow you so long as you aren't 'hanging out' with another NPC. I'll make sure to keep this as a main bug on my compilation thread too!

I've had Elsa following me around and dragging her to the cave repeatedly and she'll still tell me "Hey we should talk about the ice." so I'm still stuck on this one. I have no idea what is up with the quest outside of it's just... bugged. Hopefully they figure out what's up with it XD Because I need progress with her to keep going for Anna's quests. At least with her following me around I've got her to level 8 friendship now >.> so that's a bonus LOL

I guess I'll focus on Ariel and Ursula (because my goodness are they a pain to get friendship up since you can't have them following you) for now to try and get Eric XD

I got problems even faster in this realm - when cooking stone soup I collected three stones and already had in home oregano and basil so I just simply cooked the soup. Now Anna wants me to cook the soup I already cooked and I can't collect anymore stones. Anyone know what to do? plz

You can still collect Stones. Look on the ground for rocks and dig them up. I did the thing of cooking the soup at home and found out she wanted me to cook it in her Realm instead, I was able to get the rocks by digging where I saw them.

Don't worry, your not alone, I've tried everything and she's the only one I'm waiting on to move forward. So, I've been working on Ursula and Ariel (which I find interesting we can't task them with fishing at least)

For my bf, Elsa is already in the cave and stuck in there. He hasn't given her the warmth potion yet so it tells him to do so but... she's in the cave... and the ice is blocking the way.. and without the potion, he can't break the ice..

Just wait, had the same problem. She spawned outside after some time.

Me too. Breaking the Ice quest is still bugged. I knew a patch was about to come out, so I hurried to report this on multiple forums, but I am afraid it was not soon enough.

Yeah it's weird that they can't just follow us around for fishing. At the same time, both Ursula and Ariel did have human forms obviously. And I'm pretty sure Ursula could make a potion or use her magic to swagger around on land XD Also... Octopus, she has easier access to land >.> I have them both are Friendship 7 but it's such a slog to level them LOL I can only give these girls so many flowers before they start to suspect something is up XD

It would be nice if they gave us the option of resetting the quest. I don't mind starting from when you bring her to the village, but it's a headache to watch it being stuck.

Or just allow Anna to progress without Elsa for now.

Yeah, that's one thing I would LIKE to have as an option in the future. The ability to 'abandon' or 'drop' a quest in the event that it bugs to pick it up and reset it. I was looking to see if there had been an option when I was first starting out and picked up quests I didn't want to do immediately but nothing. I really hope it's a feature they add to the game before full release. It'll make life so much easier if something bugs and slips through the cracks.

I had this happen too, she does leave from time to time and that's how I completed that quest - just keep an eye out for her and do other stuff until she leaves.

You can also try teleporting around and 'resetting' the zone as well as going in and out of buildings. I remember that this also helped with getting her out because the bug for that is she thinks that her home is already ready and will treat it as such when you haven't completed the quest at all. Which I think is a leading problem for most of the bugs we are having with this particular quest.

I had the same issue where Elsa somehow entered the cavern whilst I went back home to clear my inventory and make the potion when I got back she was nowhere to be seen but it showed her inside the cavern which I couldn't complete quest because it asked to give her the potion. I decided to try something so I went to the Frozen Realm and then back home and she appeared elsewhere on the map so I was able to continue with the quest, now I'm not sure if it is connected or not but worth a try rather than having to restart the game. Also as another note I left it until the next day to try this so maybe it is about waiting ........ worth a try though.
