Quest: Gather Friends

The bodyguard quest “Gather Friends” has me phased out and unable to see any of the creatures needed for it. I got to 6/8 progress and then went to do a WQ nearby and have since been phased and unable to finish the quest. I’ve tried joining a part with a friend, relogging, leaving zone and coming back, and reloading UI and none of this has worked. Please if anyone has a fix let me know.

This happened to me. Cancelling the quest and picking it up again will cause the creatures to phase back in.

I’ll give it a try thank you!

Happened to me as well, also at 7/8

Happens to me every time I hit 7 of 8. I can actually drop the quest in front of where the crabs spawn, and a half dozen will spawn in once I’ve abandoned it. Getting it again and trying again has the same result at 7 of 8.

Different problem, I can get 8/8 but then I can’t turn the quest in.

I’m having this problem too.

Think I know the reason why, your only allowed interaction with 8 of them, then they phase out, so if you kill or attack one, that counts. I killed 3 not looking what i was meant to do with first then got stuck 5/8, but quickly restarting quest fixed the issue.

Can confirm, this is true.

Just came here to say, it is still bugged.

This worked for me perfectly. Thanks.

Still bugged as of 7/22/19. Had to abandon and re-acquire. Was stuck at 7/8. There are 2 other threads on this quest about the issue.

8/19/19 still bugged

8/27/19 Still Bugged. Got to 7/8. Someone captured the first one that I tried to as my net was in the air so it didn’t count. Seems like peoples theory about interacting with 8 (killing/not really capturing) is the cause.
