Quests: Darrowdeep

Post by CragOrion » Fri Dec 08, 2017 5:02 am

My quest doesn't give me credit for killing the king of ghouls
The objective is "putting him to rest"
do I have to be the one that swings the killing blow? My summon has killed it twice with no credit

I have had similar issues with the Goblinoid Fortress quest. Pary member killed the chieftan, did not get credit.

For example, Aragorn has a quest to kill ten Orcs, and has slain three of them. Legolas has just accepted that same quest and encounters Aragorn; the two decide to join forces. Three orc kills later, Aragorn has slain 6 of the 10 orcs needed to fulfill his quest, while Legolas has slain 3 of the 10 orcs needed to fulfill his quest.
Just posting that here. You have to be the one to do the final blow.

This example may not reflect how it is actually working, but the example you quoted says the exact opposite of needing to be the one that deals the final blow. In the quoted example player 1 has 3 kills before partying with player 2, 3 kills later they are at 6 kills and 3 kills respectively. That is fairly explicit in that kills are shared between party members for credit.

Kills by party members will count to your quest total, although you must be in the same area when they occur.

There has been some issue with logging kills caused by summons. Let us know if the problem persists.

Can confirm, my summon just killed the Ghoul King and I didn't get credit. :/

A possible fix went in yesterday. Let us know if summon kills still aren't properly being counted for quest tallying.

When I get on I'll give the Barrows another run, I'll see if my summon can kill the boss and get credit.

After investigation, it seems the bug is with the 'King of the Ghouls' objective and not summons themselves. This will be fixed.

In the meantime, let us know if you have trouble using summons in quests elsewhere.

I just finished the Darrowdeep ''fetid hole ''with my wizard. My dire bear gave the final hit that killed the King of Ghouls. I checked the objectives, all of them are complete with the exception of killing the king, so i can't complete it. What i'm doing wrong?

PS: i still got the head to prove it :)

It looks like the quest is working but summon final hits sometimes do not count for objectives. We'll be looking into making the quests more summons-friendly.

Aww, okay. Got it. A quick question about these quests: I have done the "Clear the sewer gang", in fact it was one of the first i did it. But now I have checked and i can do it again, whereas i thought it would be removed from the available list after i completed it. Is this the way it should be?

Each quest has a 1-day cooldown of when it's available, starting when you accept the quest.

So you can repeat the same quest later. Or again if it took you over a day to finish it.
