1.1.9.8 : Homestead - Culling the Swarm quest can break if you kill Swarm Queen Ravna at the wrong time

I killed the viziers, fought Ravna phase 1 and died, then when i respawned in Homestead, i talked to Douglas, turned in the “kill 10 egg clusters” quest and got the Culling the Swarm quest. I then went back to the hive and killed Ravna, but for some reason the quest failed to update.

In the screenshot, you can see that Ravna is dead but the quest failed to update. I suspect the problem is caused by getting the quest after the viziers are dead but before you have killed Ravna, since the initial phase of the quest is for you to kill the viziers first and something breaks if they are dead but Ravna is still alive.

Seems they modded the game a bit to have certain chests show up as quest markers. Whether that affected the quest … :woman_shrugging:

All i did was make certain chests appear with an icon on the minimap, this is done via the “map nugget” entry in the chest DBR. This has no effect whatsoever on the quest (or any quests for that matter). You can make the icons look like cats or whatever, it doesnt matter.

iirc, from other similar reports
it’s because the kill queen ravna quest has a partial trigger/quest objective to get 2 glands and open the door to the hive
if the “quest” is done fully in 1 go without visiting Douglas until after the quest, the quest resolves fine
if you portal to Douglas before getting the glands/opening the door to hive, and get the quest and then portal back, the quest resolve fine
if you portal to douglass after getting the glands/opening the door, but before getting the quest, and then kill ravna, this happens, every time i think
