Vanquishing Sulfurous Wastes?

I vanquished Sulfurous Wastes this evening. I took my second account with me. My main account had Requiem for a Brain and Show of Force active. When we got to the Abbadon Shrine, i could not click on any of the eight statues. Is this a bug, or am I overlooking something? There were plenty of monoliths, as would be expected for the two quests.

My second account has beaten Nightfall, and did not have the quests. I tried each statue with both characters. Thanks in advance for thoughts or answers.

You forgot to bring "Rune of DOOM"....lol...you need it to activate the bosses.

If you dont activate any shrine, then the monsters havent popped and shouldnt count for vanquish?

Just like other popup monsters, where you can complete the vanquish if you havent popped them?

If you don't activate 'em, you don't have to kill 'em. So the only reason to activate them would be for the additional SS/LB points.

hahahaha - I DID forget the rune! Thanks!

There's a bug where sometimes you actually will need to trigger them.

I don't think it applies here, though; I've only seen it happen when you activate a quest that causes new popups to be created while you're actually in the area (even if they're outside the vanquishing total addition range). For example, some of the Echovald Forest quests that create luxon ambushers.
