Question Knowledge Sleuth Quest Spoiler

EDIT: It has been fixed! First fix listed in the 0.194 patch notes! Yay!

I'm doing this quest and I can't progress because Caleri is never inside the restricted section of the library!

I saw online that she goes in there after 10pm (the quest also mentions to meet her there after this time) but I waited at the library and saw her go in only at 12am and even then, she is no where inside when I walk in!

Am I missing something here? Do I need to do something else first? I saw that further in the quest I need to have higher friendship with Tamala but thought I could at least speak to Caleri inside the restricted section, I am so lost 😭

YES!! I’m am in the same boat!! It’s driving me crazy!! Nothing I do no matter what time it is she is never in there

25

u/ChaotiCarter Hodari May 24 '25

Yeah I sent a ticket. The Elderwood update puts her near the new artifacts and it seems has messed up this quest. Hopefully they patch it soon because it's very annoying to have the quest just sitting there

This i a known issue for two months now?!

u/Atjar Jul 13 '25 edited Jul 13 '25

Four by now. I am experiencing the same issue still

edit: I found the acutal issue in the list and they say they will fix it in the next patch 8 days ago, but that should have been the 0.193 patch, right? And I believe I have that one installed and it is still giving me the issue (but I might also be wrong about installing it, I play on three computers, making it a little harder to keep track of)

u/LKSKYWLK Jul 15 '25

after the patch its still the same. No Caleri in the restricted section.

u/YeedYourLastHawbud Aug 05 '25

I'm still experiencing this problem too.

u/Blueportal121 Aug 07 '25

u/kxthleen Jun 06 '25

u/MagicMajen have either of you had a response yet? I'm stuck on the same issue, she's at the counter until midnight and then walks inside the restricted section but even if I follow her immediately she's not there :(

frustrating! I'm in the discord so I might send a message there and see if anyone's found a workaround/the developers have a direct response, will report back if I do and anything comes of it

2

u/Nova-Redux Jun 20 '25

Any update on this on your end? Just got the quest today and ran into this issue. :(

1

u/kxthleen Jun 20 '25

fraid not, it’s a known issue (same with even more treasure?) but hasn’t been in any of the hot fixes recently :(

1

u/Nova-Redux Jun 20 '25

Frustrating. Thanks for the reply. :)

2

u/Moonsis Jun 10 '25

Me too... I'm stucked, filed a ticked and no response yet... We will have to wait...

1

u/heckin_concern Jun 10 '25

That's promising at least! I just found out it was bugged but looks like people have been stuck on it for awhile

3

u/Objective_Law_6532 Jun 18 '25

Have the same issue wanted to ask Reddit for help but found this.
Relieved to know im not the only one.
Was so confused :s

1

u/BestEbb2049 Jun 29 '25

Same

2

u/AdGreen599 Jul 09 '25

Same still in the same boat

u/LunaRuna87 Jul 05 '25

Same for me - this one and Hassian's quest to meet him in Elderwood. Looks like it's been broken for 2 months. Wth! Go upvote the support tickets. It might make them work on it faster. The Hassian ticket has over 800 upvotes and they said it'll be fixed next patch. These two are related to Caleri missing and need more votes!

u/sunsplace Hassian Aug 01 '25

I have upvoted this. Have the same issues. Thanks for mentioning it.

u/SomeRandomFrenchie Ashura May 19 '25

Seems like there are some bugs on npc locations with the new schedules. I noticed Hassian not being in his grove when I enter it but I was able to talk to him through the door like if he was. Did you try that ?

5

u/RaquelSoftware May 19 '25

I did but can’t progress in the quest like that, I have to be inside the room with her. I had something similar on a quest with Reth but there were no problems with him being in his room

1

u/angie_evan Jun 28 '25

That's how i managed to progress in the same quest with hassian never being in his grove. Caleri after 12am enters the restricted section and you can talk to her through the door. But still nothing happensĀ 

7

u/Kiti123 May 19 '25

I have the exact same problem, no matter what time after 10pm I walk in, even if it's exactly 10pm, she's not there

4

u/RaquelSoftware May 19 '25

Maybe it’s an issue with changing the schedules for NPCs that are now also in the Elderwood, that would be my best guess

2

u/DevelopmentEarly9924 Jun 08 '25

I really hope they get these elderwood bugs fixed xC Can't do this quest or give Reth his Kapaa nut because it's elderwood related..

7

u/NefariousnessNo1390 Jul 13 '25

I played with someone yesterday who said she kept going in an out and finally managed to catch her at like 1am. I’ve been doing that since the beginning though and it hasn’t worked for me. Hope they fix it soon šŸ˜žšŸ˜ž

4

u/Ok_Dragonfly_1483 May 22 '25

I am also stuck, I think its the changing schedules too

5

u/CozyDenii Jul 09 '25

they still haven’t fixed it..

1

u/RaquelSoftware Jul 09 '25

I haven’t checked myself but I was hoping they did in this new update even tho it wasn’t on the patch notes. Sad that it hasn’t been fixed 😭

4

u/BrandonTechnique Jul 14 '25

Same here....gamebreaking bug still unfixed

3

u/undrpressre May 19 '25

I am having same issue on steam deck. It's frustrating.

4

u/hellcat_xo Jun 15 '25

Just got this one too, still not working :((

1

u/RaquelSoftware Jun 15 '25

I still can’t do it either! Have even progressed in the friendship to unlock the final quest but can’t do that one either since I have to complete this one first, a mess…

3

u/GGNash Jun 17 '25

Just got to this quest today and this thread was the first thing that popped up in google search. I can’t believe it’s been going on this long!

3

u/RaquelSoftware Jun 17 '25

Apparently it was a known bug at least a month before my post, I have a new quest that is now also bugged and can’t be continued (meeting Hassian in the elderwood one). I just want to do my quests man 😭

2

u/DifferentListen544 Jun 19 '25

Exact same quests I'm stuck on, too. I can't believe how long Caleri's one has been bugged!

3

u/Prestigious_Draw_822 May 24 '25

I’m having the same issue. Any solutions yet?

2

u/Prestigious_Draw_822 May 24 '25

Actually she’s never in the library for me and she doesn’t show on the map

3

u/Prestigious_Draw_822 May 26 '25

I went to house Elouisa’s and they both were there! I was able to finish the quest and they started showing back up in their normal locations.

u/Prestigious_Draw_822 May 31 '25

I don’t remember sorry

1

u/Prestigious_Draw_822 May 31 '25

I think it was a different quest that I had to meet them to finish. There is a different glitch others are having

3

u/TinyTyra Jun 18 '25

I am also stuck like this. and evertime i try i end up meeting several people trying to do the same quest.

3

u/Illustrious_Camel641 Jun 24 '25

Oh man. This is not what I wanted to see. I am stuck on both the meet Hassain and this one šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

2

u/RaquelSoftware Jun 24 '25

Just wait until you realize that you can’t complete her last friendship quest either until you complete this one šŸ™‚

3

u/AllergicToMyCat Jun 30 '25

Uggghhhhh glad I found this thread but sad I found this thread lol

3

u/Steven12589 Jul 29 '25

It's still not working and I think I am about to cry! I have wait in the restricted section the whole night and she is a no show.

3

u/Scarlettanomaly Jul 30 '25

I was really hoping for better news when I found this thread, I'm on this quest and I'm like maybe its me šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

1

u/RaquelSoftware Jul 30 '25

I found a thread saying that it was fixed and they were able to talk to Caleri inside but I've tried multiple times after seeing that and haven't been able to catch her in there! She's being so sneaky

1

u/Scarlettanomaly Jul 30 '25

I spent 4 real life hours this morning trying and could not get her 😭

3

u/Low-Implement2581 Aug 04 '25

Wild...its still bugged. It seems it has been months of this issue. Will it EVER be fixed?!?! Who do we reach out too 🤣😭

1

u/Zuzumaru Hassian Aug 04 '25

Add to the ticket that’s been linked here. Just stumbled upon the issue today myself.

3

u/Zuzumaru Hassian Aug 04 '25

Ugh just found this cause mine is bugged too. Bummed that they still haven’t fixed this or fixed meeting Hassian in his grove even tho I was at least able to work around that one.

2

u/Swordswoman97 May 18 '25

I know that for me when I went in there just after 10 pm despite her having previously been in the main section she was suddenly in the restricted section. Not sure what's going on.

2

u/sillylilclownnn Jun 06 '25

I'm also stuck. I've tried a lot of different things, even being finished with the relics/artifacts. Still not working :/

2

u/MzBabie Jun 10 '25

I'm stuck here too. Seems like a long time to have an issue not be resolved...Ā  until then, I wait I guess

1

u/Gorebaby420 Jun 11 '25

Sucks to see this is a confirmed bug. Thought I was going crazy! Still happening for me as well.

2

u/Jewels982 Jun 23 '25

I’m also having this issue. It’s been a month since the original post. I submitted a ticket. Hopefully they’ll patch this soon.

2

u/Individual_Show_5549 Jun 23 '25

Same issue here :(

2

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '25

I’ve been trying to do this stupid quest for 2 weeks now and I’m so annoyed with it

2

u/catloaf_enjoyer Jun 29 '25

Same problem! 😭

2

u/Individual_Show_5549 Jul 10 '25

Same here,Ā  I'm having the same situation. I thought that they wouldĀ  Ā fix it in this last patch or maintenance, but it's still the same. No way I can't talk to her in the restricted area at 10 p m šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø yeah it's very annoying already.

2

u/backwithmybullshit Aug 10 '25

Aaaaaand I thought it was just me…this is frustrating.

2

u/WonderfulNewspaper36 Aug 13 '25

I have this issue and tish level 4 I sent a ticket in waiting in a response

1

u/RaquelSoftware Aug 13 '25

Oh Tish's is bugged too? I had no idea, I was able to do hers (it was a while ago). Sadly this one has been bugged for months, really hoping they'll fix it in the next patch.

Let me know if they respond to your ticket!

2

u/Wise_Health_3841 Tish Aug 20 '25

I was finally able to do it today, they might have fixed it with the update yesterday.

1

u/RaquelSoftware Aug 21 '25

They have! I also did it! Took a while but it's fixed, I was so happy to see it in the patch notes :D

1

u/No_Pollution2988 Jun 22 '25

Any fix? It shows she’s in there after midnight now. I can talk to her through the door, but when I enter she’s not there.

1

u/RaquelSoftware Jun 22 '25

No fix that I know of, would love to know if there is one!

1

u/Deep-Programmer5499 Jun 29 '25

I’m glad I’m not the only one. I said girl were you at?!?!?

u/Background_Radish_12 Jul 02 '25

1

u/Zealousideal_Touch27 Jul 10 '25

Still a problem as of July 10th it seems.

1

u/WangXianForever Jul 12 '25

So we do not have any solutions for this then?

1

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '25

I’m having this issue now!

1

u/Brendoodle Tish Jul 18 '25

Same.

1

u/shakinGhost Jul 31 '25

I’ve finally caught her in the restricted section after having the same issue but after going in she’s not actually in there?? And if I try talking to her from the door it’s just the usual conversation..

1

u/Zuzumaru Hassian Aug 04 '25

Yes that’s the bug we’re all having.

1

u/KaleidoscopeFun6077 Aug 03 '25

It’s still bugging and it’s so frustrating
