Missing Phylakes
So, I've searched all around the map for the phylakes. I killed 9/10, including the 2 that travel together in isolated desert. But, I can't find the last one for the life of me. Restarted game, reloaded objectives, traveled to their homelands and lit braziers, and nothing!
This is driving me insane...please help ubisoft. Thanks.

Already been to all those locations...no luck haha.

It was worth a try.

I googled your title: Missing Phylakes and read some more. I'll list a few but recommend you post on Ubi website since they can help.

Reboot the game. Restart the Quest. Meditate.

I can't say for sure, but definitely had a hard time finding the last one. Those location guides aren't super helpful, as it seems a few of them can move around in very wide areas. Best advice I can give, if you haven't already done it, is zoom out on the map as far as you can while still showing quest icons (you can use a Reda quest icon if need be), and then just start in the top left corner of the map, and scan your way back and forth all the way to the bottom. I could've sworn the same thing, but lo and behold, after scanning the map TWICE, I finally noticed the icon for him. Still could totally be a glitch in your game, but possibly not.

His title explains he's done most of this already. My post reiterated a few as reference to the google search I made.

Hopefully this can be resolved so he can finish the quest, get the sweet loot and move on, wishing there were more to kill like myself.

Already did all of these things. Thanks anyways bro. Already submitted a ticket to ubi.

Similar happened to me a week or two ago. I had 2 of them left, and I scoured the map top to bottom, side to side, nothing. Didn't know about the lighting the brazier trick, and I didn't know their names, or where I had seen them on the map (and killed them). After about 2 days (real time) they just showed back up again. It might have been sooner, but I had stopped looking for them.

Thanks. And it should resolve itself before Ubi ever gets back with you on a support ticket. Rumpelstiltskin would give up on that one.
I had trouble getting the last one to show (and not being sure which I missed) but if you go to each location and light the brazier at a military outpost and just hang out they'll show up. My last one was the level 22 Fist of Ptolemy by Lake Mareotis. I went to the southern outpost, shot the brazier with a flaming arrow and around the time I killed the first wave of reinforcements I got the notice that one was nearby. It probably took him a couple minutes to show up so if he doesn't arrive with the first wave just give it a few before trying the next location.

Thanks mate, I think that's how I solved it in the end. Though this thread is 2 years old...hahaha.

I finished with 9/10. I think mine may be legitimate save file corruption. I had been playing so long on 3GB of spare hard drive space and often the game would just eat that up at random times and my save game wasn't saving properly at 0 bytes of HDD space (probably lost 10-15 hours of game time on 2 or 3 major crashes). I also think that this game needs a lot of hard drive space for virtual RAM for far better performance. I had no issue and it seemed to run better on 6 or 7GB hard drive space spare.

I had been over every area said to contain the Phylakes multiple times, lit up multiple flames in each area and no Phylake came. In addition, I have completed every achievement except the 'daily life' tour achievement and sunk over 150 hours into it, so the game should have marked his whereabouts. Despite this, I wasted at least 5 hours trying to find this Phylake. There is no missing him.

My suspicions is that it may have bugged out in the isolated desert as I believe there are two in that zone and both came to a rebel fight. I remember seeing two, and I only remember confirming the kill for one and not the other, which I went looking for. I mentally noted it down at the time. Fortunately I didn't need to kill this phylake for an achievement. The 'all locations' achievement unlocked without it.

Sry for reviving threats

I had the same problem. 9/10
But i had all 10/10 weapons.

For me helped to restart the Quest with "R". The one guy respawned. As i remember: it was the one who got killed by NPCs which helped me to kill this guy.
But this kill didnt counted. Mystery solved :D
