Original Post — Direct link

I run three saved games.

I started my festival day with my lowest level character and was able to buy all the things, and complete the entire festival offerings without a single bug or issue.

My second game was with my maxed out, longest running character. I am experiencing the foreign resource bug and cannot finish the "War Effort" quest because of it. I was able to buy and experience everything else without issues.

I decided to go ahead with my third save game. This is a maxed out skill-level character (still plenty of mastery point room) and hasn't finished all river raids so I though it would be safe.

I was able to complete all tasks for the "War Effort" but the final tick on the bar did not move and complete the quest to the next stage of talking to Sunniva. The mission is stuck on "check the idols for things to do" part, but none of the idols have clickable icons, and I finished all of the tasks anyway.

The only thing I can think of, is after I won the Orlog game, I went to Ake to do the Flyting. My game crashed during the flyting. When I loaded back in from an autosave file, I had to complete the Orlog again, and was able to complete that and the Flyting and then this bug occurred.

Let me know if a save file or screenshots would help. Or should I just open a support ticket with those items?

Hello there!

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble completing "The War Effort." Just to confirm, have you been able to completed the requirements provided on all four posts? There are three posts around the offering boat, and there's another post next to the boat by the fighting area. You can find these by using Odin's Sight, as it will highlight the posts in blue.

If you've completed all requirements listed on the posts and are unable to progress further, please can you send us a video which shows the following:

  • That you are unable to interact with any of the four posts around the offering boat
  • Your current quest log, showing which quests are currently active
  • Your active objectives as part of "War Efforts"


I'd recommend uploading the video to a sharing platform, such as YouTube or Google Drive, as this will allow you to post a shareable link within the forums. We can then take a closer look at this.

Thanks! 😊

Hello there @MiniaturePony & @Kimswerd92!

Thank you for providing me with some more information about your experiences, and for sharing additional images. I've passed these reports along to the development team so they can take a closer look as to why you may be unable to progress further with "The War Effort" after completing the requirements from the four posts.

@Kimswerd92 - Would you be able to provide us with an additional video which shows that the four posts aren't highlighted when using Odin's Sight, and that they cannot be interacted with any further? A video demonstrating this behaviour would be very helpful for the development team's investigation.

Thanks! 😊

Hello there!

I'm happy to confirm that a hotfix has been deployed to address an issue where players could not progress in the "War Effort" quest during the Sigrblot festival, despite having completed all the objectives from the four posts.

Please ensure that you fully restart your game before loading your save in order to activate the fix.

You should now be able to continue with "The War Effort" after completing all of the festival tasks!

If you're still unable to complete "The War Effort" after completing all of the festival tasks due to the progression bar not filling up completely, please don't hesitate to share your report within this thread so we can investigate further.

@Elite-Holter - Are you still being prompted to help Braun after completing his quest? If so, please can you open up a new thread about this issue so we can investigate it separately to players having no further objectives to complete as part of "The War Effort?" As you still have the objective displayed, it's possible that this is a different issue to the one being discussed in this thread.

Thanks! 😊

Hello there,

As the Sigrblot Festival has ended in-game and this issue no longer persists, we will now be locking this thread.

If you encounter any further trouble with any other in-game festivals, please don't hesitate to create a new thread so we can investigate further.

Thanks! 😊
