[BUG][QUEST]: Magic Lamp

[Skillz1987]

will be a fix soon ? because i don't have save before starting quest and can't go forward........................................

This... hope they fix this soon.

I wonder if I should complete the quest anyway and cross my fingers for a correction later

I was able to do this quest just fine, but I never bothered to check if it shows as failed? I was able to start the later quest with the lamp just fine, but I haven't played that part. I have already been in the location before starting the quest tho

+1 vote for a quick fix

I don't dare to continue with the main storyline until this has been fixed.
Maybe they can't fix it retroactively for savegames where the quest has already been completed.
I keep waiting.

This is correct. These NPC ghosts are just digging. You cannot interact with them.

As far as the lamp being on the other side of the map - we are looking into this.

Thanks for the info on this, I was in a cave or similar and heard this sound of a pickaxe, looked everywhere for it and then eventually decided to turn on the magic lamp and saw a ghost chipping away at the ground with a pick axe. He doesn't say or do anything leading me to believe I missed something. I stuck around looking for a while and gave up figuring there was nothing left to do although I never considered it a bug but rather just confusing. I'm assuming this is the guy you're referring to and if so, glad I didn't miss anything.

I too have a magic lamp icon on the map in white that wont go away even after looking at it which lead me me to believe that something was incomplete there.

This bug will be fixed in patch 1.07??

I'm the one that posted the video of the bugged Magic Lamp quest. I went back just now to the savefile I kept before I did the quest and might have found what makes this quest bugged. I'm convinced that we should be able to examine the statues before examining the door because Geralt says something about the statues if you examine them before the cutscene ("Really similar these statues"). You can do this by quickly running over to a statue and examine it before the cutscene with Keira starts. However, since the quests updates right after you examine the door there is no way for the game to include that you examined the statue thus making it think you didn't do it.(?)

I posted a video of my findings, but since I can't post links you can use the video link in the first post and check my latest video. It's titled: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Magic Lamp (Objective Bug) pt.2
(or if someone could post the link here that would be great!)

The error occurs even with me :- and it does not look like he was patched
