"A deadly plot" quest failed after completing it?

[Kyrua]

Hello. I have completed "A deadly plot", but when I take the boat to the Isle of Mists and start the part where I have to follow the light, "A deadly plot" appears among the failed quests. This prevents me from triggering "Reason of State", which is needed for the achievement. I have tried to load a previous save, but it doesn't seem to work anyway.. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks a lot

Did the quest show as completed first and then failed when you entered isle of mists?
The quest chain can fail depending on your choices, which then will result in a different ending.

Yes, the quest has first been signed as "completed" in the mission history and then as "failed" upon entering isle of mists

This happened to me once back when patch 1.08 was released. I had completed it fully and it failed retroactively, as did The Last Wish. The patch was responsible for it. Seems 1.22 may have done the same again.

Damn.. I'm trying to get all the achievements, this bug really bothers me

It might not be failed, just visualisation bug. Did you get to the point after the battle of Kaer Morhen?

Yes, I fought the battle at Kaer Morhen and got to the point where I have to save the blind sorceress from Dijkstra; I saved her and answered nicely to Dijkstra by giving him the information he needed; afterwards he told me they had rent an abandoned... Thing, to discuss about the plot to kill the King but no mission has been triggered.. That's why I wrote you thinking that the reason behind it was that the game saw that I had failed the previous mission back at the isle of mists and thus did not let me trigger the next one..

I don't know about that, I did all the secondary quests and treasure hunts before I even went to the Isle of Mists. First time I played through I didn't do some, so they failed.

Well, I needed to play again the game at the maximum difficulty for the achievement anyway, I'll let you know if I'll get again the same problem :) thanks, for now! Have a wonderful day!

I play with lots of mods active... After completing "A Deadly Plot" aka escorting Thaler where the mission will pop up and say complete, Travel to Novigrad and find Dijkstra at his bathhouse. Just talk to him and choose both optional conversations, after the second one is done you'll hear the audio tone for a quest update but no text will pop up on your screen. Go to the isle of mist and the quest will not fail. I'm on patch 1.31

Confired again on next gen update to work. I needed to trigger the "still in politics" conversation option with Dijkstra. No audio cue, but I didn't fail it when I re-entered the Mists
