Hello everyone,

Thank you for your continued reports of this issue with speaking to Erik Loyalskull after defeating him in Hildesvini's Crag in Rygiafylke. We're still investigating this at the moment, and the developers now require additional information from you all in order to proceed with identifying the cause of the issue and hopefully implement a fix.

For those of you on PC and PS4, it would be much appreciated if you could submit a save file to us via a support case or Live Chat. If you're unable to open a case, you're welcome to contact us over social media (Facebook / Twitter: (https://www.twitter.com/UbisoftSupport)) to have a case created for you, or else reply here and I can open one on my side on your account. These save files will enable the developers to explore the issue in greater depth and understand the exact issue being faced by each of you. Additionally, DXDIAG and MSINFO files would be helpful from affected players on PC, so we can investigate the system side of things too and see if there are any common factors.

Any players on other platforms, additional videos of the issue would be much appreciated for the developers to see how the issue manifests itself. It seems the prompt to speak can either be missing entirely, or that it disappears when you attempt to use it but Erik Loyalskull does not speak - so videos of both instances are greatly useful to look further into both possibilites.

I fully appreciate that this issue was reported at launch, and that you're all eager for an update - I'll do my best to update this thread as soon as I can when more information comes in from the developers. I've added the thread to our megathread list as well for greater visibility. Thank you for your patience and understanding so far.

@chrislcrews Regarding the Fly Agaric challenge you mentioned, have you since been able to complete this correctly? If not, could you please open a separate thread for this issue and include a video showing you completing the challenge and it not progressing correctly? Thanks!

@Marcus_Fialho @katanakahn Thank you both for being so proactive and providing videos of the issue already; I added these to our report for the developers to refer to.

@Lwelshy92 - Hello there! Thanks for sharing your workaround for Erik Loyalskull. If you are encountering other issues that are different to the one being discussed here, I would recommend that you check out the megathread list to see if it is listed here already. If you cannot find a thread about your issue, please can you open a new thread so we can keep these investigations separate? Thanks!
