I cant get Gwen to give me this quest. I finnished The Missing Vangaurd and have her broken flute but the quest just aint there. I looked on the wiki and it doesnt say its been removed. What am I missing?

Yes she is. Is that a factor?

If you have a Red Iris Flower with you take that to her.

If not exit the Eye of the North and go behind it to Gwens Garden and pick up the Red Iris Flower that spawns there. Again take that to her and see what she does.

Do not confuse the (broken Flute) with "Gwen's Broken Flute", just a note.

Requirements
The Missing Vanguard
Gwen is required in your party
One of these: Red Iris Flower, Preserved Red Iris Flower, Tattered Girl's Cape, Tapestry Shred, or Broken Flute1 in your inventory
Not sure if they want 1 of each item mabye, but i usually bring all the items just incase.

I just did this quest.

You do NOT need to be Tyrian. You HAVE to have completed the Missing Vanguard primary quest line.

You have to have the following in your inventory. Just one will suffice:
Preserved or normal red iris flower
Broken Flute
Tapestry Shred
Tattered Girl's Cape

Easy way to get iris flowers:
Leave EOTN and hug the western wall of the outpost until you get to the garden. There will be 2.

When you start the quest, you need to have Gwen in your party.

If she says something like "it's great that you carry this stuff, but we've got more important things to worry about right now" (not as an actual text prompt, but as a speech bubble above her head), then you haven't gone far enough in the questline yet. You need to finish up on the vanguard quests before she will talk to you about Fire and Pain.

I didn't talk to her or give her anything prior to completing the Vanguard and it worked fine for me. I had a guildie come in and try get the quest with an item before Vanguard was completed. Didn't work.

If it's not working for the poster, he probably doesn't have the right item, hasn't completed The Missing Vanguard completely, or it's a bug. You were right when she doesn't have to be in your party to GET the quest, just to DO the quest, you need her in your party.
