"In the Footsteps of Gods" quest bug

[Viaire]

I did some snooping around but can't seem to find anyone talking about this so I'm not sure if it's only happening to me. The spear quest item you need for "In the Footsteps of Gods" disappeared from my inventory and was replaced with the 'Looted Offerings' you obtain through a different quest I had previously completed.

Now, I have no way of finishing Footsteps as it keeps telling me to talk to the priestess again (all that does is trigger dialogue talking about the spear). I've entered the cave again and tried to loot everything but the spear is just completely gone.

Reloading a previous save to start the quest over just produces the same results. Not sure what I can do other then fully resetting the game (which I'm not really interested in doing even though it's not that far from the start).

Hi Vier,

I'm sorry to see that's happening. If when you go into the cave (past the jellyfish and the glowing mushrooms to get to the second chest, is the chest just open as if it's been looted already? Do any of the guards show there at all or is the entire area completely desolate?

If you could show a video demonstrating this that would be great. Let me know the results and how that goes.

All the guards are gone and the chest is open and looted.
