Bug: War In Kryta Questline Broken
Xaft

Yeah, I'm stuck as well.
I've never liked the Recruit Ebon Vanguard portion of this quest. I think it was very poorly designed and so I've skipped it on most characters, but now I'm stuck with having to complete it and I can't.
Here's my main issue. We have to help Keiran get his picnic items together. No problem. It sounded like a fun quest until I found out which items he requires to complete the quest.
Drake Kabob - not an issue. A bit frustrating with the low drop rate, but do-able.
Candles - Again, not bad. I have plenty of honeycombs from Nicky and even if you don't, they are craftable ingame.
Birthday Cupcakes and Apple Cider - Here's where I get angry. These aren't available ingame. If you don't happen to have any in storage then you need to buy from other players (yeah, good luck with that) or just not do the quest or wait until they are available ingame.
The cupcakes became available shortly after the quest was introduced, so they aren't a big issue. The Cider won't be here until next week. Some players have never been able to complete this quest because of that.

Glad it's not just me then.
I just unlocked LA Keep on one character and only the daily wanted quest was available, couldn't get the 3 starting Wanteds as they just weren't there.

I have NEVER helped him get his picnic together EVER! To be honest with you i couldnt be bothered and i was able to complete all the WiK and now awaiting the 3rd quest to be sorted in the HotN

One of my characters had Riverside Asassination in his log, and i assumed he'd killed the inquisitors however on the log it still displayed this:
- Defeat inquisitors ...as his next objective.
My paragon on the otherhand had riverside asassination too but it said her next objective was to enlist the vanguard as her allies...something doesn't seem right here.
EDIT: I had to then go outside the eye and have the speech which im sure ive done before where Kieran departs etc and gwen cries. Im pretty sure i would have done this before...

Just also found out on another character after finishing the scavenger hunt and seeing the ebon vanguard speech outside the eye that it update on arrival to the keep. However, you do not need to see the speech inside the keep in order to obtain the Inquisitor Lashona Quest.
Surely you shuld finish the speech inside the keep before it allows for WANTED: Lashona to appear, possible problem with quest trigger? I'll keep you updated

From what i know - the ebon part is only to allow the spawn helpers also include ebon members as i did most of wik before i did the scavenger hunt.
Weirdly tho and im not sure how but ive managed on 2 chrs to walk into la keep - witness the dialog and be given both times the mustering a responce quest.Is the bug only affecting quests upto a little help from above as ive seen on here and heard players saying they got that far and cannot take any after ( think its temple of the intollerable ... isnt that anets hq ? lol ).

Yeah just finished A Little Help From Above, and no quests after that. But for some reason, it gave me Inquisitor Lashona again when I've already done it.
So did that thinking maybe a glitch or something, and still nothing.

dont know how or why, but i logged on today and WANTED: Lashona was there, but i couldent get the final WANTED quest, so i still cant continue in the questline.
Scott Ware
Just to add to this, I'm also stuck after Riverside Assassination.

I believe that without the ciders you can complete the quest by giving one of the other items again. I could be wrong, i quote with this far far in memory.
Blitzen09
Had Riverside in my quest log pre-update saw that the update was new content so thought i would catch up. Finished Riverside and now Salma Refuses to give out the next quest.
I don't know who stole her cookies but please give them back so she will be happy again, and I can continue with the last 3 quests for War in Kryta.
Thanks

And yes, you can complete the scavenger hunt with other items. There's a list on wiki of what Thackeray will and won't accept right here. Just bear in mind that if it's not a "perfect" item, he'll want 3 or them ¬_¬ Most of the Halloween items are a no. I don't why why he would rather give Gwen rice wine over absinthe. Silly man. No wonder she turned him down over that.
VestaShadow
It should also be noted with the scavenger hunt: If you choose to give qty. 3 of a less than perfect item the hunt will be completed. However! As soon as you complete the Battle for LA, you can no longer give Thackery hunt items! What I am getting at: On 3 toons, I gave him 3 lesser alcohols. But I was hoping to wait until next week, farm some hard apple ciders, and turn those in AS WELL to get some more paper wrapped parcels - basically working the hunt to maximize my free gifts! Unfortunately on those 3 toons, I completed the Battle for LA and can no longer go back next week and turn in ciders. I guess I am just putting this out there for those who may work in new toons - in order to maximize your gifts from the hunt, you MUST complete it before completing the Battle for LA quest!

Is ArenaNet aware that both WiK and the new quest line are broken? Is there an update I haven't seen? Wiki people, has any dev posted about this? I sent a support ticket but haven't received any response back yet.
I see acknowledgement about the Kieran quest from Anet but nothing about the Gwen loop or the first WiK quest line being broken.

Update - Friday, November 19, 2010
Bug Fixes
* Fixed a bug that prevented players from progressing in the Keiran missions.
* Fixed a bug that prevented some players from progressing in the War in Kryta missions.
...but of course I still can't get "A Little Help From Above" from Princess Salma. :/

Still not fixed for me.
Sadly......
It looks like it reset. I have all the Inquisitor quests on the Wanted sign now. I already turned in A Little Help From Above, and didn't get Temple of the Intolerable. When I enter the keep, Salma doesn't offer the Temple quest, and instead all the Inquisitors are there now.
Seems it reset and I have to start over again..............

Same here. I took the wanted quests again. Has anyone completed them and been able to continue with the quest chain, or is it a waste of time to do them all again?

I'm still having a problem getting the required bounties from the sign board. WiK primary quest says I have to "Ebon Vanguard Allies" which right now is to help Keiran hookup with Gwen.
Any solutions?

Fay Vert
Can't even get the ebon vanguard allies quest. The whole thing is a mess.

Not... fixed. Please anet gods, please fix it before the weekend!!
Bellatrixa
I got the two bounties today that I didn't yesterday, got Riverside Assassination given. Not attempted it yet though as I've got an early start tomorrow (12:24am here :P)
Khosan
Seems to be fixed. At least for me. Though it was a little weird in getting fixed.
I finished up the Ebon Vanguard's WiK stuff, which let me pick up two of the first three Wanted quests (I could only pick up the daily one before), and then finishing those let me continue from where I was before. On Temple of Intolerance now.

Still not fixed for me, can't get any of the required bounties.
ogre_jd
That last patch did the trick and I was able to get and do "A Little Help From Above" (dead easy compared to "Riverside Assassination"!) and get "Temple of the Intolerable". Hopefully there won't be any more bug-induced roadblocks to my eventual giving up on the content as impossible. :P (much like I've given up on the last couple of missions in NF or beating the Great Destroyer without a specialized runner :/)

For any of you who can't progress, see if you have "War in Kryta" (main quest) picked up. Given by Murro in LA. It seems you can only progress now if you get that one.
MikSanPL
So, anyone found solution...
Got my War In Kryta quest,completed Thackeray/Gwen and Asuras, and now I should take Wanted: Bauer, Lashona and the third one, but they're not there.
But, which is really strange, I can pick the daily Wanted quest...
My fault or Anet's?
EDIT: Just found out that Thackeray is still standing and talking about picnic, but I gave him all items before...Now, he's just talking about garden and not willing to take any items. My WiK quest says I need to kill those bosses, so i finished his storyline...I dont get it.

just wth is going on?
BenjZee
I believe any issues with the questline now are only for those who started the WiK content beforehand. Ive just completed Little help from above and recieved the quest temple of introlerance.
Though now i've picked up the actual War in kryta quest , it now states i havent done the ebon vanguard part either, which is odd....i can do all the thackarey parts, i assume i would have done this ages ago though, though i cant remember on this character.
Hopefully though any new players etc wont have these problems as it seems to only be those who started the quest before the update that have the probelems

i guess i am in the same boat, decided to start WiK on my monk, did the trial of Zinn, listened to the dialogs at the camp, played with Gwen and Thackeray, gave him some crap, got a couple gifts and a few bags, finally completed Asura Allies, got in the keep, got reward from Salma, then nothing, nothing at the signpost but todays wanted, and Thackeray babbles about the plan and garden or better booze, which tbh, i dont even know if that quest line is connected with WiK. Only thing in my quest log is to enlist the aid of the Ebon Vanguard by assisting Keiran >.<
just wth is going on? |
I'm pretty annoyed about it right now, since I wanna do Heart Of the North and eventually the Canthan version.
Does anyone know if its going to be fixed soon? I have like, a few days off work and it'd be annoying if they go to waste
