The world event is called 'The Horn of Ragnar'. It involves a breaking and entering . The NPC required to start the mission and progress it is dead in front of the house upon first meeting and remains as such after reloading saves and restarting my ps4 console.

The video below will demonstrate the current situation (and possibly a terrible mistake of how i handled such a situation)

The quest giver is dead when I get to the location

Same problem for me. Fast travel didn't help.

@ubi-swaggins

Sorry for the late reply, this forum itself is being buggy and didn't give me a reply button to your post till just now, and trying to reply to this thread in general gave me an error saying "You don't have enough permissions" .

Anyway, I have long since completed the game and the npc is still dead / missing. Aside from this quest breaking issue, I'm also having a problem with fabric not existing in my game ever since fully upgrading my quiver and rations. I've not single a single fabric for over 50 hours of gameplay, therefore I am unable to complete an altar offering that requires 5 fabrics

This is another small video just to showcase how this World Event is still bugged, and also a bonus tidbit showing that there is no fabric in my game to collect.

Started the Mystery Event, decided to defend Bron and kill the owner of the house, cannot talk to Bron after to complete the Event

@bo_7dra_99 your best bet would be to go back to a save from before the npc was killed

if history is any indication, i don't think ubisoft will provide a way to correct the problem on an existing save and since it may be quite a rare occurence, they also probably won't do anything about it.

can you post a picture of the exact location just to be sure we are talking about a man who can't get in his house?

@bo_7dra_99 well, that's only my opinion and not the official word, but it is from experience and i would be glad to be proven wrong.

it's a little stressing in ubi games when you encounter an event and you're not sure if it's a bug or something you didn't understand fully, there is always a lingering doubt you take the chance to be stuck and can't count on any measure of effort to remedy to the problem.

in this type of case, i try to reload before just to check if i have the same result, or if it was bad luck. or i avoid the event completely until a further date when they may be a fix...

@tobi_w_kenobi The quest giver gets killed by an NPC if you're in the area. You need to find a save where the NPC is still alive.

Horn of Ragnar is glitched as NPC is dead and cannot start mystery ??????? Please fix

I’m on PS4
The world event in the south east corner of glowecestrescire won’t let me progress because the quest giver npc died to a random enemy that spawned nearby.

Couldn’t find this elsewhere but I’ve discovered a bug where you can’t start the horn of ragnor world event as the npc you need to interact with has been killed by someone. Is there a fix for this?

@animuslover I can’t, I’ve completed everything else I have never seen him alive

Arrive to complete the Horn of Ragnar mystery and guy who you are suppose to talk to is dead on the ground and unable to interact with.

The character that starts the mission was killed by the game ITSELF.I am sending you these photos to show you where is the mystery mission and the spot where character is supposed to be.Also many chests and opal I have found have not disappeared from the map. I have tried load game,fast travel and verify files and drivers are full update.

I am playing on PS4 and I am at the spot for 'The Horn of Ragnar' mystery. The NPC I need to talk to to start the mystery is dead on the ground. I have tried fast traveling back and forth, coming back at another time, loading the game again, but none work as the NPC is still dead on the ground. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks in advance!

@tobi_w_kenobi He will be alive at some point. I have tested this. I had to go back to an old save. Basically if you're in that area a random NPC will spawn and kill him so you need to do his world event before that can happen.
