It seems like the battle with Malnaj, after completing the quest and letting Remaro go, is bugged in that it ends abruptly with no loot, dialogue or any other sort of resolution.

Second that, you can leave after the battle but I want her stuff...and Serafen to tell me how happy he is. I'll add that I sent her to Maje.

Salutations, 

 

Thank you for bringing this issue up. I know how satisfying loot can be, I'll get this to the team to get looked at. Hope you are enjoying the game.

Happened to me too as I was leaving Sayuka to go to the underwater ruins. No loot or any sort of resolution with Serafen either.

Yep, same here. Tried a bunch of times too.

I have found Remaro and decided to let him go. As I leave the port, Malnaj appears with her ship and a conversation starts and leads to a fight on the decks. But after I kill everyone nothing happens. I can't loot the bodies and I don't get the usual Colors and Triumph and the option to share coin with my crew.

Is this supposed to happen or is this a bug?

Same here. It might be how it is, as it’s not really a ship2ship encounter. Felt odd to me as well.

Yeah I stood there like a baffoon as well for a minute. You have to leave the combat via the button in the top center of your screen. :D

Same here. I've just finished battling Malnaj and was thrown by the lack of either loot or discussion from Serafen. The game is so well-crafted otherwise, I would love to see this addressed.

So is this how it's supposed to be? It just feels like you're kinda breaking a quest or something, since Serafen doesn't even comment on it or anything.

Salutations scallywags, 

 

This particular bug is in our system and is under investigation. Will probably be fixed up right as rain for the future. 

 

Thank you all for your support, and happy looting.

Do fixes for bugs like this work retroactively? I saved right before the encounter, but I'm now concerned that I need to just not play this game until the bugs get fixed. Pretty frustrating to see a major companion quest have such a gigantic bug still in it.

Was this fixed in Patch 1.0.2?

Still not fixed (happened to me just now)...

I'm literally locked on the island since i cannot go on sea, because Malnaj is waiting for me outside of the dock.

 

It's been reported 10 days ago.

And since you get boarder once you leave the island where Remaro was, effectively locking you out of the game untill you get to this event, i would have though this ywould get priority....

 

 

I don't want to be rude, but how long till you fix this? Days, weeks, months?

 

And no, i don't want to continue, it feels weird and wrong to end it like this, without uttering a single word, requisitioning / pillagin / sinking her ship or w/e...

Just making red paste of everyone and leave... weird.

 

EDIT: Can you at least tell us what should happen? Because if it's only some random loot i would gladly sacrifice that and continue playing since i'm waiting for a fix without the option to do anything else in the game (unless i want to loose 3 days worth of progress due to lack of saves).

Just got here myself, I can probably stop playing the game until it's resolved, but would also love to know if I'm just missing some random loot or something more.

Cool, no info.

Guess it's another day without PoE... Yaaay!...

I just ran into this bug. Any info as to when a fix will be done? Feels super awkward after all that build up...

I give up, we won't get any info, they'll release 1.1 and it won't be fixed either... I'm done with this, gl.

This issue is not fixed since the latest update.

 

You leave Sayuka and get intercepted. After the conversation with Malnaj, you kill her and her gang, then nothing. No triggering of dialogue. You CAN loot their corpses, followed by having to click the button to go back to the world map and go on your merry way as if nothing happened.

 

I have a save just before this happens if useful to a dev.

The release notes for patch 1.1.0.0035 contain this: "Malnaj is no longer attacked by her own crew during the quest "A Sorcerer and a Gentleman"."

 

Has the end of the quest also been fixed?

Her crew doesn't attack her, not that I saw. The quest didn't update in the journal, however. 

By the end of the quest I meant if you get loot and can talk about it with Serafen. As long as this quest is not fixed, I'm not going to play the game. I'm really sad that I made the same mistake as with Pillars 1. You are not supposed to play these games in the first 6 months.

Ah. Not sure then, I did the same and put down the game since this bug and haven't loaded it up since. I miss playing it, but fortunately I have other games to play.

 

When this is fixed I'll likely resume.

Bump. Please let this be looked into!

The beta 1.2 patch notes also do not mention this. Probably because they marked it as answered they do not even look into this thread.
