After this morning's update people are reporting in chat that Gathering Obsession Beyond the Grave is broken. On the step after Qho runs back to town you are supposed to talk to Steve Echgar, and he's not ready for it. Step 6 on this guide is where it's breaking: http://eq2.zam.com/wiki/EQ2_Quest:A_Gathering_Obsession_Beyond_The_Grave
It looks like it is currently checking to see if you have finished Captain Overboard? before letting you progress on that stage. If you have completed Captain Overboard? it will work normally. This will be fixed on Tuesdays hotfix.
The quest is still doable just need to complete the other one first. I got stuck on Steve update and had no problem once I finished the Vesspyr stuff. While is a bit annoying it isn't a block to progression. Thanks Caith for the quick response with information
I beg to differ, cloud. I did Captain overboard first, completed the other stuff first then continued with the beyond the grave. Steve will NOT talk to me. So I guess I will just wait for the fix tomorrow. I so hope its tomorrow LOL.
If you have completed Captain Overboard?, you should not have any issue with this stage. What is your characters name and server?
First you get Captain's Lament from Mara. After you do it and the obol quests , Steve gives you Captain Overboard? and The Obsession from the Grave for the pony. You must complete Captain Overboard? which rewards you a sokokar after completing it in Vesspyr. At this point you then are able to complete the pony quest. I did this on 7 different server Cloudrats after the frostfell glitch.
I've started and completed the quest on 2 alts since the glitch. No problems talking with Steve at all. Ponies are happily harvesting holiday stuff )
I did not see the fix listed on the fixes for tomorrow. Is this bug NOT going to be fixed tomorrow? Does that mean we have to complete that tiresome PITA Captain Overboard?
