Picking up Missions?

[kreepr]

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">How do I go about getting Squire Hadley to give me a quest/mission?? He has no feather and offers no quests. I am level 55 so should be able to pick them up. Also I can not find <span style="color: #ff0000;">Ragheejb Yasir. Is he on the main platform when you take the blimp from SS or is he deeper in the zone? Thanks for any help.</span></span></p>

[feldon30]

The missions are all listed here: <a href="http://eq2.allakhazam.com/wiki/Shadow_Odyssey_Missions_(EQ2_Quest_Series" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://eq2.allakhazam.com/wiki/Shad...Q2_Quest_Series</a>) And by exploring you can find the location coordinates for all the NPCs. However realize the Missions are for Void Shards, and I believe Void Shards cannot be attained until level 80.

[kreepr]

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">I have looked on Allakhazam already. I have found the quest gives at each location for the zones. But they will not give me any quests or missions. Plus I can not figure out where <span style="color: #ff0000;">Ragheejb Yasir</span> is and if I need his quests or missions first. Is he on the main platform or somewhere in the zone?The shards can be collected but not used till 80.</span></p>

[Banditman]

<p>If your in game character is what your signature says, it's readily apparent why they won't give you the quest(s) . . .</p>

[Meriwyn]

<p>Am I missing something or are there not any that are always available for the void instances?</p>

I have not been able to get any quest at all at the new instances. I have found them all and found the people that are supposed to offer them but they are not offering them. The only NPC I have not found is <span style="color: #ff0000;">Ragheejb Yasir. </span></span></p>

<p>Actually, you gotta be 75+ to get the Missions (I tried sharing them, that was the message I got).  also, if you're in a scaled down verson of an instance, the Chest will contain 0 Shards.</p>

<p>Same problem. INFO SoE plz.</p>

[Purrcey]

<p>Hopefully the DEVs are already aware of the <strong>bugged timers</strong> for shard missions and especially the daily super 2 shard mission. This is happening to people in my guild as well. More than 36 hours have past since aquiring and completeing the missions and zones.</p><p>ALL shard missions both Daily and regular should have timers keyed to and based off of zone reset timers! If I can reset my zone timer I should be able to get a new shard mission pure and simple. This really needs to be addressed if it hasnt been already.</p>

[Malfyr]

<p>Aye, its bugged for some people on the double shard quest. Last response I got to my petition was a known issue and its being forwarded to quality assurance.</p>

[GotzMilch]

<p>Half of my guildies are having this problem also.  I cannot pick up any new missions that I have already completed.  And no, I'm not locked out of any zones.  The ones that aren't working are listed in my completed journal.</p>

[Neiloch]

I'm having the same problem. I can't get the 2 shard mission or any of the missions for everfrost. I really hope we are supposed to be able to get the missions as often as we can reset the zone.

[Neiloch]

<p>I know it sounds paranoid but I wouldn't be surprised if they did this on purpose, or at the very least dragging their feet on it. If it was working the way it was supposed to I would already have all the first level legendary loot I wanted and saving up shards to buy the higher stuff (if not further) which is pretty quick considering its only the first week of release. Personally I'm not going to let up on this problem because I don't want this 'bug' around for a month. Expect daily reminders from me, possibly more frequently.</p>

Maybe you should take a break, yes it's a bug, but there is plenty to do in this game.</p>

[Neiloch]

A. I said "one" of the main features, not THE main feature. B. from the official TSO expansion page "A new, mysterious group of erudites with powerful new armor and equipment will barter for void shards earned during your encounters." acquiring more than half these void shards depend on quests, if you wish to do it in any sort of sane amount of time. C. I don't want to do anything else in the expansion because I don't find them fun. Raiding has come to an almost halt with the holidays and quests not related to void shards are poorly constructed. thanks for the small increase in run speed to the insane increase running around for quests. Yes there's multiple things I can do in the expansion but there's multiple things I can do in a empty room too. what matters is if its fun or not and I find progressing my character fun, which I can not for the most part because of this bug. Yes I concede there are other things to do, sadly they are boring to me or unavailable as well. Your not going to convince me they are suddenly worth doing by repeating that they exist.

[Oh]

<p><cite>Neiloch wrote:</cite></p><blockquote>Yes I concede there are other things to do, sadly they are boring to me or unavailable as well. </blockquote><p>Well TO ME it sounds almost like your burnt out on playing eq2.. Anyways you could always do other missions there are several camps, and they are still offering quests. Granted getting the "daily" 2x voidshard is very problematic, but there are other new ldon'ish instances. Although maybe you might be just better off doing something that brings you fun and happyness if EQ2 isn't that place for you.</p>

[Oonimobanai]

<p>Did 3 sets of missions Tuesday evening.  Could not get quests for those zones Saturday afternoon.  Same went for the rest of my group. They did the zones Wednesday, and again could not get Saturday's mission.</p><p>How did this not get tested in beta?  Isn't that the point of beta?</p>

[Batez]

<p>MOST people who get into beta do not actually "test" anything, they just play and have fun while people who applied to beta who actually wanted to beta test the game get shunned.  Based on the way they do most beta invites (from the numerous people i've heard from who have done beta)  If you were accepted into the original beta for the launch you were accepted into all expansions from then on.  Same deal if you were accepted on DOF you would then be in all the new betas.  Does not seem to be very smart when stupid bugs like this pass through.  I've found numerous pathing bugs for mobs in the new zones but i'm not good enough to get into beta when I apply so i'm not good enough to type /bug in game either imo.</p>

[Griffinhart]

<p>Add me to the list of people that can't get new missions.  All the zones are unlocked, but I can't get a new mission for any zones I completed.   Since I have been taking guldies through the easier instances to introduce them to the new content it has resulted in me getting fewer shards than I should have.  It's pretty frustrating.  Any ETA when this is going to be fixed?</p>

[RoguePyro]

<p>Here's another bugged and frustrated player. It also seems I'm the only one in my guild to have the bug.. how's THAT for frustration? They've all started getting void shard equipment and I sit there.. nothin'. Been doing instances and such still, but even after doing them daily, one shard short.</p><p>I'm sure in 6 months, none of this will matter, but right now? Oh heck yes this matters.</p>

[iceriven2]

Yes there's multiple things I can do in the expansion but there's multiple things I can do in a empty room too. what matters is if its fun or not and I find progressing my character fun, which I can not for the most part because of this bug. Yes I concede there are other things to do, sadly they are boring to me or unavailable as well.

<p>Add me to the list :-/  Another thing I noticed is that I picked up abunch of the 1p missions at the beginning of the expansion in my run around and collect quest mode.  I didn't get to do them, they expired, and now I can't get them again. This is a really irritating bug. Why create  daily missions that you can't [Removed for Content] get?</p><p>/annoyed</p>

So basically while we were all collecting our missions on that first day they are now starting to expire and we cannot pick up another one until after its lockout whatever it is. I think its probably set up something like this  quest 2 days to do and lockout for another one 2 days or whatever it might be but that could be the case.</p>

<p>You cannot get Void shards unless you are lvl 80 as far as im aware.  So missions arent going to be available till 80.</p><p>Also, 4 people in my guild now cannot get new missions either.  We THINK that it broke when we did the 2 shard mission, along with the 1 shard mission in the same zone.  Which gave us 3 shards (4 with the chest) for the same zone.  I assume we were not supposed to be able to do both missions, and might be the cause of the bug.  Thats a guess though, its the only thing the 4 of us could figure, because others in our guild are having no problems grabing new missions, and none of them were with us when we did the 2 shard thing.</p>

[Batez]

<p>we got 5 shards from one zone last night (ravenscale) was pretty awesome.  We got the ravenscale mission 2 nights ago before we did the abbey and the second instance in LP so the ravenscale mission was just sitting in our journal all day yesterday.  We also got a 2 shard mission for ravenscale that night.  Last night we did the mission we got the night before, the 2 shard mission and got the chest (4 tokens) when we turned in the first mission a feather appeared above the mission guy which gave us another mission to kill 8 giant protector things.  Theres an image of mayong that you can summon up and he creates 2 protectors each time so we just sat there and had him summon those on us untill we were done.  5 shards 1 zone was pretty cool considering the lady who summons the 5 ^^ adds was owning our face as was the 5 man encounter and the last 2 orange bosses.  I assume what we did was working as intended because it was beta tested and all right?</p>

[Alpion]

<p>Add me to the list too.  I can not get any tradeskill instances for Far Seas Tokens, nor can I get any Void Shard instance quests.  It's even more annoying when the person I ran the quests with is able to get some of them again while I can't.</p>

Seems to be an ongoing theme for people taking issue with what I say here, insisting that I said something I did not as part of their argument. Several pieces of equipment I can use are between 5-10 shards each. From the replies here apparently your in the minority in thinking that this is 'not a big deal.'</p><p>And since you seem hell bent on saying there is other stuff what do you suggest I do? I don't like exploring on any MMO, I have yet to find a heritage quest reward I desire, I have finished all the solo quests in Moors, I don't like leveling or playing alts, the only tradeskiller I desire is already 80, i dispise farming named in overland zones for money/loot, pickup raids are for people with time to waste and an addiction to repairing.</p><p>The problem could very well be my desires don't sync up well with EQ2, but this brings me back to my original point. Something that is supposed to be working, questing, and is very well a staple of EQ2 and MMO's in general, isn't working properly, and their dragging their feet on fixing it. Not just one or 2 quests, an entire quest system for an expansion. And I've waited until monday as suggested, and look, still no patch. what I desire to do and have fun with is perfectly accpetable, even encouraged, and isn't working.</p><p>On the plus side I did find a kind of fix for this, I got a GM to reset my quests so they would work again. So everyone having problems with this can just send in a petition and have a GM fix it for you every time it breaks.</p>

[Kiara]

<p>The team is working on the fix for this right now, guys <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>I'll share more when I have more info, but rest assured this is definitely a high priority.</p>

[Anastasie]

<p>One thing I noticed about the super mission quest giver is if you select the first option he won't give you a new quest. If you select the second option and go through the dialogue he will give you a new mission.</p><p>Bug with sharing regular missions: when sharing a mission that requires items to be used in a zone (e.g. - holy water for Evernight Abbey) the person you share the mission with does not receive the needed items.</p>

[MarginalAtBe]

<p>If the problem is with missions, and new repeatable faction/tradeskill quests not wiping from your completed journal when the switch to new quests occurs because you're not online at the time.... <strong>please, please</strong> fix it so they stay in completed.  It really sucks to have 100+ new quests that won't stay completed.</p>

<p>The daily missions are in the moors sort of near the armor selling NPCs.  The daily mission NPCs title is the "Mysterious Erudite"  I forget his name though.. just look around  pretty hard to miss.  The daily mission seems to be a random zone that is the same for everyone for the whole day(i.e. I can pick it up at 3 AM eastern and my guildy can get it at 11 PM eastern and it will be the same.  These quests give 2 shards and 1 plat per completion and do actually refresh as they are meant to.</p>

[Ronny]

<p>I don't know if anyone else has noticed this (and I sure hope the dev's have), but the one way I can reproduce this bug consistently is this:</p><p>Turn in the mission too quickly.</p><p>I have tried this several times now to confirm (bugging myself in the process <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />), and tested it with my friend who has the same bug and got it at the exact same time as I did. And also tested with a friend that has run exactly the same instances as us without getting bugged (this was the last piece of the puzzle, how he'd managed to avoid the bug).</p><p>If you wait a certain amount of time (haven't determined the exact time, but I've waited until the lockout for the zone I did the mission in to finish and that works) before you turn in a mission, you don't get bugged. In fact, if you wait, you can get a new one as soon as you turn in the one you have.</p><p>It's consistently reproducable (though I don't recommend you try <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />), every single mission that I've turned in as soon as I completed it (i.e. as soon as I left the instance) has bugged me and I've not been able to recieve any more missions for that zone.</p><p>The same goes for the "daily double" mission on the moors. Completed the first one on launch day, turned it in as soon as I was done and haven't gotten a new one since. My friend in that same launch day group also got bugged, also by turning it in straightaway, but my other friend forgot to <strong>and didn't turn his in until the following morning.</strong></p><p>So if you want to avoid this critical bug, the surefire way is to wait at least 12 or so hours before turning in a misson.</p><p>This info should be stickied/posted somewhere with BIG letters to warn everyone. Since figuring this out I have entirely avoided getting bugged for the few instances where I still can get missions. Spread the word people (and devs please put it in the MotD <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />)</p>

The Void zones partly exist to complete The Shadow Odyssey heritage quest.</p><p>That said, there is some very nice loot that drops from these relatively easy names, plus the nice 15 plat treasure chest that drops from the Energy guy.
