Harpy Chow broken?

[philliesphreak711]

NPC quest-giver for event quest "Harpy Chow" seems to be bugged. Speaking with him after accepting the quest does not provide you with a harpy as it did earlier today. I was only able to obtain 1st harpy & then it randomly despawned & won't come back. I've dropped quest & picked it up again to no avail...

The harpy just appeared next to me when it started attacking snakes.

probably only applies to faeblight shard, but avoid the stump up by Kain's
there's a snake that spawned under ground or something, and it bugs the quest.

I also tried to drop the quest and pick up again, also tried relogging and that didn't work either.. what worked for me is to take the portal to various locations then go back to quest giver and get a new harpy.

This is what worked for me too. The harpy seems to bug out & get eaten by stumps, landscape, etc. *Shrug*

I had a harpy follow me but then it stopped following me after a while. I went back to look for it and found it trying to attack snakes that had spawned inside the terrain so the harpy was stuck trying to attack a snake it couldn't reach.

Another bug, I was able to pick up the quest on my alt even though she's only at the first step of the scavenger hunt. Odd.

if it bugs out abandon it and retake the quest
it will spawn a new harpy for you, try to lead it in a clear path to a spot
once its there it goes down fairly fast

mine bugged trying to get to a snake under the ground, so i abandoned and retook it, nothing

so i abandoned and retook it again, nothing. so i abandoned and retook it again, nothing. so i abandoned and retook it again, nothing.

so i went and did scarlet gorge, tried moonshade, came back, tried to retake it, nothing. eventually it gave me another after being logged out for 3 hours

Quest is definitly bugged.

I have the "Harpy Buff" and yet the harpy wont attack the snakes when im near them. I cant attack them either.

Tried abandonning quest to restart it, wont work.

After reseting the quest 3 times, I finally got a new harpy wich ended up disappearing AGAIN while chasing a snake.

[Crazysam87]

Now resetting the quest wont make a new harpy appear.

On Faeblight, I had the same issue 11/15 and somehow the harpy got stuck under a wooden bridge and wouldn't return to me. Tried to delete the quest and get it again, but new harpy wouldn't pop. 50 Channel said to try the next day, logged in early the next day and the new harpy popped without problem. Finished all 15 and got the quest completed.

So I don't know if actually waiting until the next morning fixes it or some type of long delay would do the same.

OK, I had the same problem. My harpy went out and killed like four snakes and then it disappeared. I went back to the quest giver and he wouldn't give me another harpy. I went back to Kain's Command, beamed back to Sanctum, immediately beamed back to Kain's Command, talked to the quest giver again, and he gave me another harpy.

I then went to the big tree at 3506, 3946 and as soon as I got to this area, the harpy just took off and started killing snakes and I just stayed on my mount virtually the entire time and did not move. The harpy would kill a snake, return to me, and then immediately go out and kill another snake. It repeated this over and over again until I had (1) snake left to kill. Then I rode my mount like maybe 30 ft down around the base of the tree and the harpy killed the last snake and I was done.

So, if you lose your harpy try beaming somewhere else and then come back to the same quest giver and see if he gives you another harpy.

I had no trouble with it on the live server but, on the PTS it did get stuck and not tally snakes despite harpy killing them. Logging out and back in fixed it there. perhaps that's all that's needed when it does glitch.

Chiming in on the whole broken quest part. The Harpy got 1/15 but that was it before it vanished. Can't seem to respawn it even after aborting/retaking the quest.
