    Did you hand him the cough syrup from the previous quest?

    And what server are you on?

    Do you get thru any of his text at all? Any response? If so what is it or does he just stand and say nothing?

    Make sure you say "what about the list" too

    This info is needed to see where the problem is.

    Have you checked your inventory for the Tax Collection Box? In case you got it and didn't realize.

    The more info the better they can help you

    Well, let us know what he says cause that will point to where the bug is - sounds like he is going thru his script so double check for the box in your ammo slot or someplace like that too - since you can do this at level 1 and the tax box is a 10 slot then a lot of players would just do this for the box. Its lore so only one.

    The trigger phrase I'll help with today's collections to receive the Tax Collection Box does not always work or does not work at all. Clicking on "collections" does nothing.

    Saying help you with collections does create and hand out the box.

    Did you con Vicus or just look at the factions window for what is list on ZAM?

    FACTION aprensibly with VICUS NONAD for get the quest.
    With dubiosly dont work.

    You may also need other factions:

    I was able to get the Tax Collection Box and List of Debtors.
    But none of the people to collect taxes from would give the taxes.

    I did the bone chips quest with Lashun Novashine, I turned in 2500 bone chips.
    (you might raise faction with less, but I just bought that many to try)

    https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=528#m132301836199447564
    If saying "tell me about this list" does not work, try "give me the list" instead. I had to use the "give me the list" to get it.

    If it were working like it should then your next line would be:
    You say, 'What list?' so if you say that and he gives you the list then you already have the box somewhere

    I saw this in the comments on Allah but I am sure you tried it already since you mentioned you tried every phrase but here it is:

    opps was researching and didn't see the other posters info was the same as what I had

    Vicus is not on either of the Qeynos factions.

    Code:
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:40 2023] Vicus Nonad regards you indifferently -- You could probably win this fight. (Lvl: 26)
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:42 2023] You say, 'Hail, Vicus Nonad'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:43 2023] Vicus Nonad says, 'Greetings, Soulbanshee.  My name is Vicus Nonad. <cough>  I am the official tax collector for the fine city of Qeynos. <cough>  I serve the will of Antonius Bayle, our glorious leader.  <cough> <cough>  Please excuse my [cough].  <cough>'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:44 2023] You say, 'cough'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:44 2023] Vicus Nonad says, 'Oh, <cough> I am sorry, but it seems I have fallen a bit ill.  I was caught out in the rain the other day and my chills have gotten the best of me. <cough>  If only someone would [help] me with today's [collections]...  <cough>'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:56 2023] You say, 'help you with collections'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:34:56 2023] Vicus Nonad says, 'Oh thank <cough> you so <cough> <cough> much <cough>  Here is the official collection box.  Please collect from each merchant on the <cough> [list].  Then bring me back the combined total of all your collections.'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:35:06 2023] You say, 'give me the list'
    [Thu Feb 02 16:35:06 2023] Vicus Nonad says, 'Oh.  <cough>  I am sorry...  I forgot to give it to you.  Here you go.  Be sure to give that back when your job is finished.  <cough>'

    i have tried help you with collections
    does not work
    i am max faction with
    Merchants of Qeynos

    and I amWarmly to
    Guards of Qeynos


    but am dubiosly with
    Antonius Bayle

    do you think this is the issue?
    it is very hard to get that faction up only quest and no mobs to kill to help with that

    this is what he said i said about the list

    That looks like a faction issue. poster on allah said he turned in 2500 bone chips to Lashun to fix his but might could take less, that was just what he bought

    that bone chip quest raises these factions so he is probably on one of these

  13. Soulbanshee Augur

    Do not look at the factions window, hit C to con Vicus, you have to be at least apprehensive, he isnt on Guards or Merchants.

    If you kill him you decrease Merchants, Guards, and AB, so maybe he is on AB faction?

    Have a char that's threatening to bayle, kos to guards and amiable to merchants. He was threatening.

    Do Bone Chips:

    I can not get the bone chips quest from Lashun Novashine because of faction but i need it to increase faction
    he says something like you are an enemy to the temple of life
  15. Soulbanshee Augur

    Did you try just handing bone chips anyway? Old school quests are not part of the task system, sometimes you can just hand in items regardless of the dialog because you don't have to actually "get" anything, but some hand-in tasks are gated by faction.

    He's probably on Priests of Life faction.

    Killed him for you. He's on Antonius Bayle faction. The way the faction system works is the first faction listed that is raised or lowered is their primary faction and the others listed are sister factions that are raised or lowered.
