Bugged Odyssey Quest: The Fall of Deianeira
I am doing the quest "The Fall of Deianeira" and she seem to have fallen through the map. I am standing where I think she is supposed to be, in the Cave of the Oracle under the bonsai looking tree, but the quest marker is indicating that she is 347 meters below me.

As I was getting closer to the first marker for the quest I could see it quickly drop and fall for some time before stopping. Now I am stuck and cant progress further in the questline since I have no way of killing her.

Is there a way to reset the world so NPC's and such relocate or am I forced to restart with a fresh save? I messed up and only have 1 main save file and a few autosaves but they are all having the same issue. I have tried doing other quests, fast travelled, restarted the game and so on but I cannot get her to pop up out of the ground in this case.

Has anyone else had the same or similar issues and have you found any type of solution for it?

I'm sorry to hear that's occurring, just to confirm it's only that one quest that this happens with?

You could try verifying the game files, which will check for any missing or corrupt files and replace them. You can do this through the steps in the guide here

Yes this is the only quest it has happened on.

I have tried to verify the game files and it did not work. I also tried to reinstall the game but the problem is the same. She seems to have fallen/spawned outside of the map.

Should I create a ticket for this on the official website? Is it possible for you to manipulate my game data and fix it since everything is synced with the ubisoft cloud? Or should I just restart and hope that it does not happen again?

Unfortunately it's not possible for us to edit or change this in your current save.

You may need to reload to the last save you have before this started to happen.

I would though ask you to create a case through the Support Site and include a Zip file with you current Save in it. That will help us to look into this.

Alright thanks for the info. I have created a ticket and attached the save file with the issue.

Hi The Snout, just wanted to say that I had the exact same issue happen to me. Reloading earlier saves didn't fix the problem. I also created a ticket and attached my save files. Please let me know if you get a response or find a solution.

There was no solution to the issue. I uploaded my save file, gave them some screenshots of the issue and they asked for a video of the problem. In the end I decided to start over on a fresh save.

Also happened to me. This is game breaking. Tried an older safe, got to the Boeotia Leader and got the clue. Same issue.
Deianeira is about 5400m beneath me.

Is Ubisoft aware of this bug? Is a fix coming?

This bug is still not fixed. WTF.

What is an ETA on this fix? I'm reading other threads that seem to verify that this isn't even being worked on. https://steamcommunity.com/app/812140/discussions/1/3561682880001701210/

The only way I managed to recreate this problem on a fresh save was to get the quest and approach the marked location from the south using fast travel. I fast travelled to the closest location, the one close to Mount Helikon, of the marker and once my game loaded in i could see the marker drop through the ground. This happened on my first playthrough as well. This could ofcourse also be totally random but I have seen it atleast twice now.

At this point there is no use getting the clue from the town as she is outside of the map. I am not sure what triggers her falling through the ground but the way I managed to prevent it was to approach the marker from the west, like Hill of the sacred war or Valley of the snake, and then ride to Reborn Hills to find her with a bodyguard just walking around close to the crossroad where I think she fell through the ground the first two times. From what I have seen you can find her as a random encounter there as well before you have the quest so I think she patrols that area.

Now I cant say this will sovle the issue for anyone else but give it a try if you have a save from before she fell, just try to approach her location on the map from quite far away and try not fast travel to any location south of her position. My guess is that some event triggers her to spawn and collide with her bodyguard and they both fall out of the map since when Deianeira is 300-2000 meters below the ground her bodyguard is nowhere to be found either.

In the end I had to restart with a fresh save the first time it happened but the second time around I found her at the crossroads close to Reborn Hills at the "There is information in the city of Orchomenos west of Lake Kopais" stage of the quest. But like I mentioned before I went to her location from the west instead of the south and I did not fast travel that time.
