Blood quest? Almost every other quest in this game has a blood or a smell trail. Can you be more specific?

oh sorry it's called Blood Gold, it's a hidden treasure quest.

Its on the isles northwest of oxenfurt. i looted the chest and the orange search thing is still there, not sure how to fix this.

It's a known bug. Unfortunately it looks like there's no fix. I have had this happen to me in 2 separate treasure hunt quests so far. It's a minor issue so they may or may not fix it in the future :/.

To complete the quest and not have it bug on you, you must use the aard signal on the barrels in front of the chest. The barrels will be blown away revealing the chest and you won't get the bug. At least, that's the way I did it and it worked.

For me, it was the exact opposite. I blew em away and it got bugged, I loaded last file, did not blow them away (opened the chest from behind) and it worked. This bug seems to be pretty random.

I can confirm @ethandarkcrow's solution works. Lootin the chest got it bugged. Using Aard to clear and then loot, completed the quest

I completed Blood Gold quest, and died after. Loaded my last save (which was back at Rotfiend nest, UGH...) so I ran to Blood Gold quest right away, knowing it was treasure. Looted dead man, ran to chest, (without using Witcher Sense) and it bugged.

It's been alive over 2 years. They're not caring or simply can't fix it. Who knows...

so I found this code to help with the chest not looting for another quest. addfact(lw_prologue_temerian_treasure_opened_mill) does anyone know how to apply it to blood and gold?
