The lore note? Right-click it. If it’s still there it means you already read it in normal and you should just throw it on the floor, whereupon it should disappear.
yes I am still on normal (veteran), I have not touched the other difficulties yet
I was just confused that a quest item with no use whatsoever stays in the inventory and needs to be thrown out manually, but if you say so, then that’s what I’ll do
Edit: it’s (I think) not a lore note, it has 2x2 size in the inventory, looks like a map and says “quest item”, lore notes are usually just 1x1 and disappear when you read them, right?
It’s both, and it’s not the only one. There is another lore note that is also a quest item, The Last Will of Marthos Everbrook. Although that one is a bit harder to find, so you may not have come across it yet.
You don’t really need these 2x2 notes to complete the associated quests though, so you can safely drop them after reading.
My bad, you’re right. When you already did the quest in a previous difficulty the note won’t disappear and you have to toss it or sell it, but when you read it the first time it should disappear like a regular lore note, if it doesn’t it’s most likely a bug or an outdated game version.
I just did the quest with a fresh character, and I noticed there was a small change to this quest. The item from the chest is no longer a 2x2 quest item, just a regular 1x1 lore note. You still initiate the quest by opening the chest.
Did a quick forum search for Nane’s Stash and found this thread which describes the same issue: Nane's Stash Quest Item Question
As you can see from the screenshots in this thread, the OP has a 2x2 quest item, while the other player has a 1x1 lore note, like myself.
@samir what game version are you using? My guess is you have an outdated version so if you are on Steam you should verify your game files, I believe GOG has a similar function somewhere.
will do, though I thought steam is eager to update all the time…
anyways, I am still on the first difficulty, but… I think I found the (2x2) note twice, read it the first time and the 2nd one just got stuck in my inventory, not sure though as I rushed through that area the first time,
but if you say that’s fixed then that’s fine, will see on the next char if it is
steps are relatively simple (i’m assuming failsafe/some tie in fix to how the Nane quest originally borked on same char 2nd/3rd playthrough difficulty back in 2017/18?)
Discover Nane’s chest/loot the chest
Exit game before actually completing the quest/finding Nane’s stash
Enter game, discover Nane’s chest again, since the quest isn’t completed the quest item doesn’t vanish like normal (remember how slith necklaces/strange key keeps dropping until actually clearing the quest?), - now you’re able to loot the actual physical quest token item(map)
When you clear the quest, and exit/rediscover nane’s chest again the quest item will not “drop”/be invisble like other obsolete quest items
But the prior looted quest item/“map” in round 2(or how many rounds inbewteen clearing) remains in inventory/stash until tossed(and becomes invisible too ofc)
