Witch of the Wastes (and the quest right after)

[Majeye-11582]

The quest called “Witch of the Wastes” and the follow up quest to it are bugged out.

When you complete Witch of the Wastes, it sends you to complete the mixture, but where it wants you click the table doesn’t spawn and in order to “fix” it, you have to log out and back in again, completely resetting your progress on both quests - ultimately making it so you have to go back and complete Witch of the Wastes all over again.

|NOTE|
We noticed that when you start to teleport out, it drops the quest item on the ground… so you HAVE to walk/mount back to the quest location in order to complete it without it bugging out. So… not technically a bug I guess? Still annoying as heck, should be updated so we don’t drop the quest item when teleporting back to town to ride to the quest location.

Happened to me, my wife, and a friend of ours.

This needs Blizzard Dev response as I see multiple threads for this as well

A list of other users having the same problem:

Quest (Witch of the Wastes) Act 5

I completed the quest and got the quicksilver from the mini boss / quest elite but I noticed it was going to be a lot faster if I had could travel to town and then give it to Donan / Taissa. Doing so, it forced dropped it, only allowing me to travel across the map with my mount instead of the fast travel feature that is in game. Is this intended? I know dungeon items drop from you when teleporting out but world drop quest items? Seems a bit off.

Quest: Witch of the Waste

Quest: Witch of the Waste Issue: Can’t place Vial on table Restarting client makes me fight Valha boss lady again, and again. Picking up the Vial from her and stuck at the same spot of no highlighted place to put the vial. Solution found: Teleporting with vial in inventory causes u to drop it. Gotta run it back

Witch of the Wastes quest bugged

I killed the lady and picked up the vial needed for the quest. It asks me to return to town and when i do it says to place the vial on the table. There is no place for the vial to be placed, ive tried it twice now.

No Bowl after Witch of The Wastes

Completed the Witch of the Wastes quest and the step to place the quest item never appeared. I tried leaving and coming back, interacting with everything, talking to people, still didn’t appear. I logged out and back in, and it put me back at the start of the quest to go find Valtha in the Cinder Wastes. Edit Upon repeating the quest, I found if you try to port to town it drops the quicksilver on the ground, stating that area items cannot be removed from the area. You have to walk back to town. …

Still happening here, too. I tried to log out and log back in and it rolled back a couple of steps so I have to go kill Valtha for the 3rd time. A lot of quests have been doing that in Act IV and V, if you log out of the game, or if it crashes, or if it doesn’t allow you to interact with the quest step, etc. - you log out to try to get it to work and it rolls back multiple steps.

huh, still no blizzard response?

guess they only care about nerfing their game into the ground until there are no players left.

Still bugged… I had to redo the quest chain and kill the boss again! Still no Blizzard response… not sure I want to keep redoing this quest over and over again!
