Can't advance Druid's Deep

[Galrith]

I submitted a bug report on this but wanted to see if I can't get a bit faster response on this as I am now at a situation where I can't even complete the end quest for the new Druid's Deep series anymore all because of some weird issue with quest turn in advancements. Currently I can not talk to Tarim Inavule in Eveningstar to turn in either Druid's Deep Quest or The Druid's Deep: Druid's Curse quest meaning I can't get end rewards for Druid's Deep nor can I get the Chain Reward for compelteing all 4 of the Druid's Deep Quest. Any assistance we be appreciated.

This is how I got to this point:
1. Complete the entire Druid's Deep Quest series. Then pick up all 4 quests from their NPCs.
2. Complete the 3 Pre-req quests for Druids Deep.
3. Anazar Narroun will tell you to talk to Tarim Inavule (Quest Journal Entry The Druid's Deep: The Druid's Curse)
4. Tarim will no offer any dialog and will not advance the quest for Druids Curse
5. Run Druid's Deep
6. Tarim will not accept turn in for Druid's Deep nor will he advance Druid's Curse still.
7. Abandoning either quest will not work as it provides an error stating can't abandaon while on the goal.

Still no update to this post or to the multiple tickets I've submitted. What the heck am I suppose to do? I can't run this quest or complete the chain and no response to anything. This is really starting to make me angry cause I'm stuck in a situation where there is absolultely nothing I can do and I feel like all I'm getting screwed over by turbine at this point.

[Galrith]

15 days later multiple tickets and bug reports and still nothing. I have to say this is rather disappointing that all I get told from customer support is tough cookies and would like to actually experience the content I paid for. I have to say the customer service around here just gets worse and worse.

[drgsldr69]

I am in the same boat as your right now. I have posted a bug report and talked to in-game support to no avail. It would appear that Turbine no longer cares about their players no matter how long they have been playing. Since I have been playing almost since the game came out! I bought this pack along with just about every other pack in the game so it isn't like I ain't paid my dues!

If this keeps up I see alot of players leaving. Which might be why arg is so empty now compaired to how it was a few months ago.

[laurawilder]

The order in which you say completed things does not make sense.

So I will ask to clarify. You completed Outbreak, Overgrowth and Thorn and Paw? (and did not reset quests)

You then did speak with Anazar who told you to speak with Tarim.

Here you get very vague. Were you able to speak with Tarim at all and take cart to Druid Deep?

It sounds like you did but I do not see where you mention going to Druids Deep and completing what you should.

You say you ran druids deep, but if you had and did it correct you would find the quest druids curse. If you did not locate it that is why you cannot speak to anyone again they know you have not completed chain.

[drgsldr69]

I have completed the first 3 quests with no problem three times now. The first time I did the complete chain and got the end reward for each of them. Including Druids curse! The second time I tried to do the chain as soon as i got to the part to talk to Terim, he wouldn't talk to me!

Let me break it down

0. Talk to Anazar
1. Did Outbreak
1a. Talk to Anazar
2. Did Overgrowth
2a. Talk to Anazar
3. Did Thorn and Paw
3a. Talk to Anazar
4. Did Druids Curse
5. Got final end reward from Anazar
6. Repeat steps 1-3a
7. Go to talk to Tarim
8. NOTHING Tarim refuses to talk to me!
9. join a party doing Druids Curse and complete it.
10. STILL NOTHING Tarim still refuses to talk to me and Anazar still tells me to go talk to Tarim!

Hopefully that breaks it down for what I did.

Also won't let me abandon the quest saying it is a nonrepeatable quest, and when i try to abandon the whole chain it says cant because you are on it.

[drgsldr69]

What is even weirder with this bug is that I ain't been able to repeat it with any of my other toons, and I have tried many times now.

[MadDruid]

Add me to the list of people who are now stuck unable to complete chain. tried abandoning everything to no avail he just wont speak to me. Have done this chain twice before no problem but now hit the wall that is Tarim.

I have noticed however I seem to be 3 village commendations short of where I should be. Possibly the bug is with the final reward and its screwing up the chain giver?

[drgsldr69]

No clue MadDruid, I only got 1 commendation from the end reward when i completed it the first time and it bugged out the second time. My other toon did it and got 3 commendations for the end reward so that could have something to do with it?

[team03maker]

Happened to me too!

Completed Druid's Deep chain once with end rewards. Second go-around and after third quest NPC Tarim Inavule will not advance quest.

I've completed bug reports and talked to in-game assistance with absolutely no help.

I hope they fix this soon.

[Lingal]

I am in the same position as drgsldr69

I completed the Druid's Deep chain the first time in a group (with one other person) and got 3 commendations as the end reward. Thought to myself "this seems a good way to get commendations at my level (18), as I can't get into the King's Forest until I am 20th", so I repeated the chain solo ... except I get stuck and can't enter the final quest. I have completed the first 3 quests with no problem. Tarim has a big green tick on his head, but when I try to talk to him I get his text about the weather (which is what he says to people not eligible for the quest) and does not open the dialog box to grant me the quest.

I've tried abandoning the chain and associated quests, but that produces an error saying "you can't abandon this quest while on this goal" (or something similar).

I've submitted a bug report. I've petitioned the GM who says "this is not on our bug list, and even if it was we can't fix it - please sumbit a bug report and pray that the devs decide to look into it".

[Tintilinic]

I'm joining to this club "one time and no more" :-(

[Karadon_II]

Bloody hell. I'm glad I didn't buy that pack yet!

I'll warn my guild not to do so either.

[Dendrix]

I too am bugged.

I ran the quest arc on heroic (hard) the 1st time as I was levelling up.

now I tried to repeat it on elite (Hard). I have done the 1st 3 quests, I talk to the arc guy, he give me the next quest.
I talk to the guy for the 4th quest who has a tick over his head and he says some rubbish like "it's a nice day" and does not give me the quest.
I cannot use the cart to get to thorngap as I'm not on the right option.

Bugged :(

[Mindos]

Can you have someone share the quests with you, then abandon them?

[drgsldr69]

That has been tried by me numerous times to no avail. they cant share it with me and i still cant abandon it. I have gone with a group and red boxed it but even after that couldnt get it or drop it.

[404error]

Please send me a PM with how you progressed the quest series and the name and server of the character is broken.

I will investigate this on Monday.

None of the quests "require" flagging or for you personally to have the quest. Just one member of the party needs it, and you can all play.

I know it's not an ideal workaround as you won't be able to get end rewards, but sounds like your only option until(unless) they fix it.

[katranistas]

Joining the club! :(

[pigslow]

same here. my cleric completed this on normal the first time with end reward. the second time through with a different group we completed on elite and tarim would not talk to me. He sits there with a green check mark above his head and state" nice weather we are having today"

I just want to be able to abandon this for now and play through it again. My other characters have no problem running this multiple times.

The same here with me.

[Sihtric]

The same problem happened here. Ran the arc quest 6 times no problem. Then bound my soul which started the "around eveningstar" quest chain (though its not really a quest you just talk to people). The problem seems to be that the two quest arcs force you to talk to the same people... and somehow that causes the bug.

3 commendations away from completing the purple dragon knights loyalty set :(

[Alfodur]

Bump!

[Jedthered]

same here. What is very disapinting is that this is represented by in game suport as "not a know issue". Dont insult me please. An answer of "we are aware of the issue and working to resolve it" would be better, and respected. It would also help to show that the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. Moreover, in game suport should help generate tickets for VIPs. I feel VIPs should not have to pay to point out bugs. Please consider this.

Hats off to the poster of this chain for helping tonail the bug's trigger. <clap clap>

[Jedthered]

Come on 404. Your QC. Update please! when is this going to be fixed? When are we going to get out of limbo on this? not trying to be rude here, but we all got jobs to do. ours is to kill and save eveningstar. Urs is to get help provide quailty. please wow us with ur competence.

misspelling and abbr. are intended to make grmer police twitch:)

[Melange]

Hey folks, we're currently looking into this situation on the dev side. Unfortunately the GMs are unable to hand-fix this issue at the moment so we're trying to get a fix to you guys as fast as we can. However, we're still trying to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue, so we need more characters so that we can look at their data. If anyone who hasn't done so can send us their character names and servers, it would really help us find the root of the problem. Feel free to PM if you're not comfortable posting your character info to the forum.

[Zafaron]

I'm also having the same issue. I completed the chain without any problems the first time and the second time around I couldn't get the quest giver for Druid's Curse to speak to me. I am not sure if it's relevant, but I did one of the quests on a different difficulty than the others the second time around. (epic casual, instead of epic normal). Afterwards, I was not able to finish the quest line.

[Jedthered]

Thank you so very much mel!

[Melange]

Good news, everyone. We were able to investigate the issue, find a reproducable cause, and more importantly, a fix that will automagically get your characters able to take Druids Curse. We currently have our QA guys testing the fix, but I'm feeling very optimistic about it from my own initial tests.

Special thanks to everyone who submitted info to us and helped us narrow things down.

[old-school]

November 4, 4:28 PM EST and this quest is still bugged. I am at a loss for words...other that expletives which I will not include...I really don' know how much more of this I will accept or pay for. This is not the only game in town.

[Alfodur]

When we can expect fix?

[Melange]

Sorry folks, I guess I left out that important detail.

The fix will be in with Update 16. And it has been confirmed by QA to work.
