Splintered Reef - how to do the quest there?

[Hetmasteeen]

So, I come on to the island and come across this Copperhead guy. He tells me to meet him at his place to tell me something. I go to his place, and he tells the whole situation and told me to inspect up in the crypt. I go there, kill everything inside. There's a gate which is close by some mechanic but this is opened by killing everyone in the crypt and using their blood to open it.

 

Going through the gate, I come up to the peak of the crypt where I fight Mezzago. I kill him and it tells me to go speak to Copperhead. When I go back to his place he just says "Good luck" and doesn't open up dialogue. 

 

I tried breaking the red globe thing where I fought Menzaggo but this doesn't change anything.

 

In my journal it looks like this:

Quest is still not completed. Anyone know what's up?

I'd say it's a bug. It looked exactly the same for me, and I was able to complete the quest by talking to Copperhead after killing Mezzago and destroying the globe. I'd try to reload an earlier save and report the issue to devs.

I have the same problem.

Did you convince Copperhead to act as a distraction before heading to the crypt? I don’t think it’s a requirement, but it sounds like the only thing I did differently and I didn’t have any problems completing that area

Oh, I'm almost finished clearing that crypt too, I hope it won't be bugged for me.

 

Btw, I found this by far the toughest area in the game so far, even though I'm not even underleveled. The Fampyrs and their charm/domination attacks are a real pain.

Rest with Captain’s Banquet before the fight. Allegedly svef works too. Edited May 18, 2018 by Achilles

I don't think I can craft either of them atm. Should have gotten Aegis of Loyalty with Pallegina on last level up. And anyways, 'toughest area so far' means nothing more than I actually had to try two encounters twice.

Spoiler warning: there’s one more fampyr-intense area in the game. Might want to have some help for that one.

Thanks for the heads up. Of course I'm an obsessive saver, so I can dare take a look and then decide whether I have to come back later.

Did you click on the blood orb thing after killing Menzzago? That actually advances the quest, not just killing him.
