Hi there!! I got a 2nd rebirth and start to do the Six Fallen Souls quest and when u gets on Watching the Stars subquest, it says:

Go to the meteor crater (96,612) in the west of skull mountain, where the falling star landed

when u get in there, nothing happens... in any altitude of 96,612... then i tryed some variations of coordenate like 97,612 / 97,613 / 96,613 / 95, 612 / 95,613 /.....etc and guess what? Nothing happens too.... b:shocked
Now... my toon cant do dailies on Primal World, i hope it could be solved soon as possibleb :surrender

    Did you land? Did you have an inventory slot open? I had no problem with it.

    I had 20slots open and I did land. I landed, waited, walked around, waitied. Got up in air, tried various heights. Nothing.

    EDIT: I came back at lvl 54 (First time I was lvl 8) and now everything worked. But previously I tried everything and pop-up message didin't came up..

    I am lvl 20 2nd Rebirth. I tried all the things in this thread and was about to give up. As I was ascending to leave the crater, a higher level red-named toon came and I saw the quest being done for her... so, I got as close to the ground where she was (still on my mount) and it let me complete the quest. Try descending from like height of 50 or so on your mount, stay on mount as you near the ground and see if that helps. It seemed that it just magically worked in my scenario.

    I've been trying to complete this quest for weeks.. still nothing. up down, around and around the crater.. nothing.

    I really think that this problem deserves the attention of a developer. I asked everyone in my faction and not one of them said they completed this quest without a severe degree of difficulty and frustration.

    Some of them are still on it, and for how long I can now guess based on your post.

    What will it take to get a pwi developer or support analyst to create a scenario where they are given this quest and attempt to complete the quest or at least observe why it is taking some people weeks to complete a quest that involves only moving to location?

    As it is, there is a complete and full stay preventing people from using any dependent features beyond this quest.

    Those who somehow complete is nothing short of a miracle.

    SYNOPSIS

    The quest seems like a basic "go to a spot" activity, but unfortunately this quest has issues in perhaps one of the following areas:

    * the coordinates are incorrect
    * the coordinates are glitched and doesn't trigger the appropriate event when moving your character within the boundaries

    The quest mentions to go to 96, 612. The pwdatabase says 96, 613, alt 25.5. It's precise, but off; however, i scoured the grounds using all of the following ways in these areas and the quest didn't trigger.

    STEPS

    * Logging out and back in, restarting game
    * saving 6 slots in inventory (just in case)
    * saving 9 slots in quest log (just in case)
    * canvasing entire area on foot like a lawn-mower
    * rising to the top of the stratosphere until i got Aviator title

    RESULT

    No dice.

    I found a few forum topics on this and posted in one of them:

    http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1656921
    http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?p=21664571&posted=1#post21664571

    EXAMPLE

    There is a trick mentioned in that second link where you can use "show/hide" quest and click the coordinates itself and your character moves there. I tried this about ~5 times and it didn't work. The ~6th time did. Though moving your character into that exact spot won't trigger it, using this rather hidden feature does, but not the first ~5 times I used it. I didn't even know this existed. P.S. I was on a mount too, as suggested. I am not sure it would matter if I was on foot.

    I don't think it should matter how we move our character into position so long as we are there. The spot should be broad enough that it doesn't take a few hours (or weeks, as that one poor guy spent) trying to complete a "go to a spot" quest. I asked my in-game faction and not one person didn't have a high degree of frustration with this quest.

    Since this is my first time attempting this, I do not know what features of the game is dependent on the completion of this quest chain. One suggested users wouldn't be able to run certain Primal quests but I cannot confirm.

    SUMMARY

    I have submitted a ticket where the CSR kindly forwarded this on to the QA team. I nominate this quest to be in high priority need of a small enhancement to make broad the area of completion and to allow all methods of getting there to function, whether people know about and use the clickable link in show/hide window or just by foot.

    Thanks,

    You would've been better off adding this post to the 2nd thread you linked as well. Eventhough your post is far more explicit and constructive, making new threads about a same topic usually is far less effective than adding posts to the original thread:
    more threads = less attention+more annoyance for mods/gm's.
    More posts in 1 thread = more attention.

    As far as I remember that quest I was around lv50 orso and completed it without trouble at all. Reading back the other thread I saw a couple of examples where lower-leveled people had more trouble than the higher-leveled person that flew by.

    As answer to your uncertainty: the questchain this problem is part of, has no affect at all on your Primal World dailies, they're two seperate things.
    The only helpful part of this chain is a) massive exp and b) war avatar boxes granting you mostly c's but with some luck a B too. I believe the chain is mostly invented to help the player gain cards and exp is a new way other than grinding 24/7.

    I've noticed that some of these quests will not finish if you are in a party. Go solo. The quest you mention is in that big pit west of Town of Arrivals. It finished fine for me.

    It absolutely boggles my mind how every single person I ask in-game said it gave the most headache of virtually any quest, and yet every single person (nearly) on the forums said they had no problem with it.

    When contradictions are this obvious, chances are there is something wrong with the quest.

    Ok, I just started my second reawakening, got to this quest and it didn't work. Came searching, found this thread and tried a few things.

    I don't think spamming the show/hide of quests had anything to do with it, but I jumped on my mount and ran around a bunch in the area and it showed up. Nothing much to it.

    I spent an hour running around the whole area canvasing it like a farmer plows his land, still no.

    mondego, that sucks / :

    I guess it's really just a case of when the server wants to let you do it..

    Also, as an extra, I was level 28 when I did it.
