Staff quest not working

[ukebec]

I've only been on test since the open invite, and then took 3 months off from the game.

I started playing POTCO again about 2 weeks ago, and since the update I've been on test exclusively.

For the past 3 days I've been grinding like a mad woman trying to hit level 30 to get my staff and possibly be able to take on some of these stronger enemies.

Sometime during a playing marathon that lasted until 4:30 this morning I finally hit level 30.

Got through 64% of the staff quest, defeating Raiders, Dragoons, Assassins, etc. and visiting jail more than I have since I started the game.

Only to get the portion of the quest that calls for Flotsams, Spineskulls and Dregs. I had been playing with a pirate last night who said he was getting no credit for part of the quest. He did the Dregs first and got credit for them.

I decided to save the Dregs for last and went for Flotsam. Took my first one out. No joy, no credit toward quest. Tried a Spineskull...same story.

I can't even begin to tell you how frustrated I am.

Yes, I sent in a report, but I've got to say, I'm very discouraged that one of the 5 Casa Muertos quests, and now the staff quest, are not working.

I love the new caves, but this staff problem is a really tough pill for me to swallow.
