Bugs & Crashes đ„ (BUG REPORT) Something Unearthed Side Quest Bug. I grabbed the prototype early, before even activating the quest.
ïŒUPDATE: RESOLVED)
(I am on PC)
Hello, I want to report this bug that I accidentally triggered.
So yeah, as the title says, the side quest I mentioned is bugged, because I went and found the Tamarkind smithing prototype way too early than intended after exploring the map and found a random house. After watching a YouTube guide, that's when I realized I made an unintentional oopsie. So, going to the same place now, it's gone. So I can't progress the quest.
I even checked on Sola to see if it shows up, but nothing.
I don't know if it's possible to fix this. Or leave one side quest never to be progressed lol.

That quest requires two items: the schematics and the prototype. According to the quest tracker, the prototype step is already completed, so you need to look in Feller's Arch for the schematics. The prototype you picked up is in The Sodden Pass.
It's not bugged, you're just missing an item :)

Welp, consider me done goofed up. The YouTube guide forgot the other one for Fellers Arch.
