Quest A relic Reborn
Time 9:35 24/1/13
Ifrit - completed Ifrit hard mode returned to Gerolt. Was showing new quest sign so clicked on it, realised it was the relic quest but no means to prevent getting the quest which set me back to its start. Lost weapon that Geholt was holding and the white hot ember item from Ifrit from my inventory.

The first post in this thread about the bugged relic quest was 13th September, just a couple of weeks after release. It amazes me that a quest as important as the relic weapon quest should so regularly break, and has done so for FOUR MONTHS. It takes effort and co-ordination with other people to get stuff done for this, it costs a lot of gil to get the weapon and materia, and for some in small FCS, who have banged their head many, many times on pickup group Titan HM...a load of gil to go in a guaranteed kill group. In all it impacts not just the quest player but others who put aside time/gil to help them. Is there any progress at all on finding what is wrong? Some dev input would be appreciated.

Have these 200+ people been assisted? Has their bought weapon been returned to them? Have completed parts of the quest had their items returned? What are SE doing about this?

This was months ago, I received same problem that my relic quest DISSAPEARED from my duty list after Titan HM.

I had to report it twice, through several means in game and through ticket request, on my third day of waiting I received twice the SAME generic message designating myself at fault for "abandoning accidentally" the quest. Like several players here, one even tapped the fight with the mission active, this was an in game error.

On another issue I spoke to GM about my problem and he also directed me at the forums, when I pointed out that this problem had over 212 submissions open since mid 2013 and was still on-going, he was surprised. This is a problem that needs fixing, without setting blaim to the player instantly. I've replied to the message, when I was issued a ticket and waited for two days, I expect a personalized conversation with someone, not a generic response.

I'm Ecoli Con from Sargatanas, lost my SMN relic after Titan around 8PM EST.

Edit: While I do not expect to receive the relic done, I had completed several fights and primals leading to Titan, return their KI items and book so I may continue where the game had an error.

A response from anyone official, from anywhere be it email or the forum, would be greatly appreciated.

I have to say though, even though this happened to me way back, what do you expect them to do about it? :/

The only option they have to fix this is to do a rollback on your character, making you lose all progress. Despite them not acknowledging this as a bug on their end but rather user error, and thus not issuing a rollback,would you really still want to?

I made note of mine somewhere december i believe. Since then i not only completed the relic quest for that job once again merely a week later, i also did 2 more relics on top of that and leveled all my other crafters to 50. Surely i dont want to see that progress ruined now. Was i upset about it at first? Sure. I was at Titan and it was hard back then :/ Now it's a cakewalk and not worth losing all your time and work over.

Ok I thought this had happened to me, I made a post and everything, but I have deleted it because I realized that I actually dropped the quest when I was trying to leave a dungeon, totally my bad, I was at fault

but, the journal and the duty log do look very similar, and the abandon button is in the same place, so if someone is on auto pilot, just opening the menu to click the abandon button they likely don't realize what they have done until its too late

moral of they story, slow down and read stuff before you click it [or maybe change the look of the duty log? (lol j/k) ]
