What is The Quest Bug? The Quest Bug is something that causes problems when you have an active quest. These problems include: Monsters not respawning - Fixed No drops from monsters - Fixed Quest kill counter does not go up as you kill the required mobs Randomly being unable to turn in a quest. If this happens, talk to the npc with NPC chat and use the direction keys and "enter" to select any options. You may have to do this numerous times before it will work, but it does usually work eventually! CC-ing can also help. If all else fails, wait for a server check. Update: This bug seems a little more persistent than usual right now. Our developer is looking into it. Problems with your mob attack skills: Your mob attack suddenly only hits one monster (rarely) Your attack hits the monsters but isn't doing any damage, despite working fine earlier This isn't a bug with any specific quest - it can happen randomly at any time when you have an active quest. You can have had a quest active for a while with no problems, but then it may suddenly bug up. Some quests seem to bug up more than others. The ones I've personally had the most trouble with seem to be chain (multi-part) quests. But I haven't got any active quests and I'm still getting the bug! This is likely to be because you're in a party with someone who does have an active quest. Quit your party, and if it fixes your problem, ask everyone else to quit the party, forfeit their active quests and then cc or relog before reforming the party. What do I do if I get the quest bug? As soon as you notice there's a problem, quit your party (if you're in one) and forfeit all your active quests. Make sure your party members do the same. Then cc or relog, and the problem should be solved. Always make sure to report maps with broken spawn, using the ~gm command ingame. Remember to include the name of the map and which channel(s) the spawn is broken on. ~ Should no longer be necessary. If the quest bug persists after forfeiting your quests, cc-ing or relogging and retaking the quest you need to complete, then you'll need to wait until a server check/reboot for the issue to resolve itself. But I can't forfeit my quests! T_T It's very rare that you genuinely can't forfeit quests, although this will occasionally happen. I've never been able to replicate this, so I'd suggest waiting for the next server check/reboot and trying again. What you're more likely to get is something like this, after forfeiting a chain quest: This quest counts as forfeited, even though it is still in your quest list. Maple Royals has been around for nearly a year now, so why haven't you guys fixed the bug in all this time??!!!!!!1 The Quest bug isn't a a coding error with specific quests, it is something random and hard to pin down. Our developer, Gi, has been working hard on fixes for the various quest bug issues and has already made good progress. ~~~~~~~ This bug may (or may not) have a similar root cause to The Quest Bug: Randomly getting D/C-ed in first job advancement maps when there is a new/completed quest waiting for you there. Happens less often soon after a server check.
Another point to make is that quest glitch can occur at random times. Often people comment that they had a specific quest for two weeks without issues so it can't be that quest causing the glitch, but once that quest is removed their issues are fixed.
