Wolf School Gear Chest Bugged

[Riven-Twain]

Just messaged Riven-Twain.

Hmm. For some reason, your message didn't reach me.

Sorry for the lack of reply, everyone! As a reminder, I am still just a moderator, so I don't have magical abilities to solve technical issues within the game. Additionally, I personally play on PC, so I don't have any direct experience with specific issues on the consoles. In such cases, I can only refer people to information that has been posted before, and try to offer help based on what I've read.

In this case, I'll ask one more question of everyone who has posted recently: Are you playing new games, which you started after the latest patch, or are these older saves, started before the updates, and patched later? As I recall, if you are playing older saves, which you started in an earlier version of the game, it may be necessary to start an entirely new game, in order for the patch to apply correctly, and fix this issue with the quest. Yes, I know this is frustrating, but, as I understand it, there were some difficulties integrating the 16 DLCs into the game's system, and these led to bugs such as this one.

If, however, this is still an issue, even on a completely new 1.31 game, I encourage everyone to contact RED Tech Support again, with very specific details,so that their team can see that there may still be a problem here.

Sorry I can't be of more help!

Sounds as if there are a few things that you may want to look into. Firstly, I believe that v1.32 is the latest PS4 version (even though v1.31 is the lates on PC / Xbox). The other issues you're seeing likely mean that something is borked in your save-state. It may be tricky to work around the issues, but as a general rule, reload and try to do quests "in order" (i.e. try to avoid finding the monster's lair before you've found all the footprints leading to the cave.) Lastly, reload to a point before that quest appears in your journal and avoid fast-travel of any sort until the quest is complete. Just Roach it.

I tried both. Even with my new game, I ran into the same issue on this 1.31 patch. Same as my old saves. Even tried reverting to an old save where the wolf gear mission didn't show up yet. Then when it did, I went to the abandoned tower and same thing.... can't open the chest. Tried the "falling" down the hill while rolling to get to the cave entrance and still no body to loot from... This is getting annoying....

 

[Nightrain403]

I started playing this January 2017 on PS4. I've only played on 1.31. Downloaded this DLC after a few hours of gameplay. Just got to Kaer Morhen at lvl 24, and it's broken. Tried old saves, reloading, killing myself, etc. Based on what I've read we all seem to be totally SOL.

It is a brilliant game and story with incredible characters but all these little bugs are really starting to detract for the experience. It takes away a lot from the game when you have to Google solutions to things all the time.

The Wolf set I think is the best and by far coolest looking armor in the game but at 135 hours and I'm not about to restart at the hope of getting it.

Are you guys ever going to patch this? I'd love to get this set.

 

[Crossboned]

Nope. Was just told by two tech support representatives that they won't be fixing it. Fucking bullshit.

 

[SigilFey]

I'm sorry to all of those that are still being plagued by this issue. What I can confirm is that it is possible to get the gear, at least on PC. I've actually managed to snag it it every time I played the game without any issues at all. It's a very random bug, and I'm not sure if the dev team was ever able to nail down exactly what was causing it (despite thinking that they had finally nailed it a few times!) The other possibility is that the cause is one of the things that cannot be fixed without knowingly destroying another mechanic in the game. A situation like:

"We need to move forward here, but some people can't fit through that hole. There's a big beam in the way. But that beam is also holding this whole section of the ceiling up. If we remove it, the hole will be wide-open, but the roof will totally cave in behind us, making it impossible to for others to cross through to this point. We can't do that, and we can't move forward...everyone is going to have to squeeze or find another way around." I know it really sucks for people that got so far along only to be shot down, but it's sort of the price we pay when developing these gigantic, complex systems. The more moving parts that are included, the more of a chance that something can break beyond repair.

The only thing I can recommend is try the quest over and over and over. I've had some bugs with other quests that just refused to work. After 15+ reloads and retries, suddenly, poof! Worked like a charm and I moved on. I also recommend people try the normal "busted function workarounds":

1.) Reload to a point before the quest appears in your journal and try it all again.

2.) Do not fast-travel during the quest.

3.) Be sure you do things "in order". Even if you get what to do, make sure Geralt triggers all steps and stages along the way.

4.) Try switching between gamepad / M+K if possible. Sometimes, it's just an activator flag that fails to trigger.

5.) Travel to another region (i.e. Kaer Morhen to Velen) and back again, then start the quest over.

6.) Dump your entire inventory (including equipped gear) into a stash, close it, switch regions, and pick up all items again. Then go try the quest from the beginning again.

In the end, I empathize with the frustration things like this cause. But persistence will usually out. The engine is just really temperamental sometimes.

 

[McDank334]

Hey this is still broken for XB1 the devs gonna do something???

 

[Sunsibar]

I know that this doesn't fix the actual problem, but it might help a bit: https://forums.cdprojektred.com/for...andmaster-witcher-gear-blood-wine#post9214941

Both my first and second (NG+) playthroughs of GOG GOTY 1.31 were plagued with broken Witcher Gear quests. I was so fed up with looking at those broken quests on my “to do” list of quests that I used console commands to complete the quests. Hopefully my hours upon hours of frustration and research into the correct console commands will help someone to complete these quests. I give no guarantees that they will work. All I can say is the following console (tilde ~) commands worked for me.

Today is Dec. 13 2018 and this is still an issue. I repurchased the game recently. Bought it at launch originally loved it had 0 issues. Xbox one version on disc. This is the only major bug I've encountered. It's definitely not a deal breaker for me just would like to have the Wolf Gear so when I get the expansion I can get the Grand Master set. In my honest opinion ya'll have done a wonderful job on this game and really just waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 and the only rpg that compares is Skyrim and I have played literally thousands of hours of it but people saying this game has more bugs are definitely crazy. If there is a solution I would definitely love to have that armor.

12 January 2020,
Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear
Signal Tower Chest.
No indication that the chest can be looted, or interacted with.
It really isn't a deal breaker for me but it is a bit annoying having that quest open due to this big.

 

[Calavid]

Im having an issue and want to post a thread about it, but can't because im a new user.

Ive recently hit the ofier bug, and have now just hit the wolf armor bug, and am furious with the pathetic little apology letter CDPR left in front of the broken chest. Like, you can patch a game to insert some stupid apology, but you cant patch the game to fix a broken chest, or put in a new one with the diagrams?? like, for real? This is ridiculous.
