Yeah, this seems to be a bug. The quest items don't allow you to activate them versus the boss.

The only thing that -might- be true (but I can't confirm) is that the game expects you to have an empty bag slot to use them on the mission. This -shouldn't- be the case, but it might be. (In my case, I had no 'free' bag slots, they were occupied by potions... As they should be.)

Played this mission last night, had no issue using either of the items to deal 8 damage to the Colourless. (4 Merc party, single player.)

You need to end your turn adjacent to the boss, and it is used at the end of turn. I clicked the icon on the toolbar, it highlighted the ground/TheColourless asked me to confirm action. I confirmed action, it removed the item, and 8 hp from the boss.

None of my characters had empty inventory space either.

The current bug reports on Discord suggest it's fine in single player, but broken in multiplayer.

Tried this exactly as you described twice. I'm not an idiot, it is just bugged for me.

I was playing coop with 1 friend

Yup same, seems like it only works if you are playing SOLO. Got to the end, no one in the session could use it. So i had them all quit out, I reset the round and voila... super frustrating.

Worked in solo for me.

The good news is that you don't actually need them at all. They help, yes. But it's entirely winnable even on +2 without them.

This mission is bugged. Our team lost by 3 hp just because we couldnt use either item. Fricken stupid. We spent 2 hours to get this far just for a bug to ruin it.

I would appreciate some advice... I finished it in the TT but my party composition included certain character that could routinely consume all the dark element. With the current party (Cthulhu, Sun, Music Note, Circles) I am struggling...

I cleaned the previous rooms easily but the set of actions of the Colourless are brutal... particularly the one that summons a sun demon on very low initiative or the one that adds a shield and heals him.... Then he chained invisibility on several rounds... All my characters exhausted when he was at 7HP left :) I understand his inmunity to stun, but being also immune to poison and wound made things really difficult. Any tips?

Interesting - no problem in our 2-player online game. Spellweaver and Brute; Brute had the items and used them both successfully. Not saying it isn't a real bug, just adding that it does work sometimes.

I think it was fixed in the last patch.

I'm no expert, but that party looks like excellent crowd control and damage mitigation... which sadly does not help in this scenario.
My advice is to avoid the scenario for now and come back when you have at least one single-target killer in the group.

For me, the MVP of that encounter was Scoundrel. Also good... Lightning Bolt of course, and Eclipse. Or Angry Face with Expose.
Spellweaver could also work to drain the elements.
