"your overseer quest common conversion has failed to start..."

this has been mentioned elsewhere by myself and others, but has suddenly become more prevailant so seems to need its own thread

Last night, for the first time, on my third account, I got the message: "Your overseer quest Common Conversion has failed to start. please verify your selected agents and wait a moment, before attempting to start again."

I tried again. I changed the agents around. No joy, no quest. Switch to a different toon on same acc. Complete one conversion quest. Then the same error. Swich to another toon - cannot complete quest. Keep trying on different toons for an hour or so. Give up

This morning. Now I'm getting the error on all my accounts. So far, only for the common conversion quest.
No amount of waiting/changing agents makes any difference

Same issue here - can still do other quests, but common conversion bugs no matter which agents I choose

Please like and post on the original too so the devs have a better chance to see it
