The shadow under Neketaka quest bug

[sknaumov]

I tried to complete this quest but found that I need high Metaphysics score to reach the best outcome. So I stopped in the middle of the quest: after I talked to Guildmaster Mairu, but before killing Nagas with her rod (because after the rod is in my pocket the quest can't be interrupted). But now, when I gained levels and improved metaphysics, I returned to this quest, but even though I have the rod in my inventory, the door can't be opened - there is no option to rotate a code dial.

The bug was caused by talking to and acquiring of Tekehu to squad reserve members. After that, no matter at what stage of the quest, the progress of the quest was blocked. I saw it 2 times - when there was no new quest event triggered by discovering the Mairu's rod and, for the second time (after I loaded an another game), when I joined Tekehu after I released the dragon. In this case there were no progress when I talked to the Queen.

 

So the workaround is not to invite Tekehu to the squad or squad reserve until the quest is finished.
