    After collecting 4 shards in counting sheep, I went to collect the 5th from the lady at fairy pools. After killing her she didn't drop a shard and now I can't complete the quest. What can I do.

    I could not collect the bag at Hungladder which I assume is the shards. It marks as a collectible but no option to collect. Reload didn’t help. Then I went to excavation site and same thing.

    Hey @kleew13, thanks for reaching out, welcome to forums and sorry to hear about the issue you ran into with 'Counting Sheep' quest.

    After having a closer look, I can see that similar instance has been brought up, where players were actually able to collect the shards however despite doing so, the indicators for 2 of the shards remained on the map, therefore could I double-check if this may be exactly as yours or are you certain you were unable to collect them at all?

    Let us know and we will take it from there!

    Hello and thanks for getting in touch.

    Sorry to hear you can not progress with the "Counting sheep" mission.

    Could you please go through the Xbox troubleshooting if you haven't already done so and see if that helps.

    Should the issue still persists, I would kindly ask you to record a short video and send us a link so we can investigate this further.
     
    Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.

    Hi @bonzai-TREE @crenius @DGM1992 @Jiebruce2 @RIDAFA

    I have created a new thread for this issue. I can confirm that other players have reported it and the development team are investigating.

    As some of you posted this issue a while ago I just wanted to check with you if the issue persists?

    On the counting sheep quest in Isle of skye, if you kill the old woman to collect her shard it doesn't drop. Quest becomes completely unplayable. I have scoured the forum and reddit for a solution and found that people have only been able to load an old save (it's too late for me to do that.) I've seen devs acknowledge players reporting this bug in multiple places but im yet to even see any confirmation that it's being worked on. There was even a similar glitch about this quest reported in one thread and somehow that one was recognized and fixed and this one wasn't...Again all you have to do to get this glitch is kill the old woman at the fairy pools. Please fix it's completely unplayable
