Unable to open Ominous Chest at the Shore
With some helpful comments I was able to solve the Shadow Crow's Nest Riddle and found the chest but have no idea what to do now to proceed.

Opening the chest isn't working, the undead respawn even after being killed and other posts highlighting there is a note from Gusto and Fatale in the little chapel like building on the shore isn't something working for me either.

I am quite lost and if anyone has some additional info what to do next, I would be truely grateful. :)

Thanks in advance.

It didn't start a conversation with Rezzia when you approached the chest?

And it didn't start a conversation with Duinlan when you tried to leave the area after the skeletons start spawning?

As those things should happen, then you get a quest to recruit help.

No, nothing happens for me at all. :( Should I need to do something else first? I mean I told the commander about her. Did this affect it in any way maybe? But for Duinlan I only have the quest for the urns open. Hope it is no requirement to have this done as well? Found the quest quite late and thought it might not be important.

No, the urn quest isn't necessary and there's only minor dialogue changes with Rezzia if you did or did not tell the Comander about her. That sounds like a serious bug if you don't have Rezzia start a conversation when you approach the chest.

Alright. Then thanks fo the information. I see if I can find her in the kitchen and if any dialogue option shows up there. And if not, I may be screwed and might need to wait for a patch since then it would be impossible to tell when things went wrong. x_x

Thanks a mill.

Rezzia is supposed to show up when you approach the ominous chest after unearthing it, so loading before you unearthed it and seeing if Rezzia shows up this time might be another thing to try.

As with other stuck quest/dialogue I've had. Close the game and run the settings/config reset file in the games folder (where the exe is). It will reset any graphics option changes etc but so far has fixed any stuck progression issues I've had. You could also generate a bug report to send in so they can find what went wrong

Thank you Cat's Meow. This helped at least in some way. :) The dialogue options finally showed up. Just other things are now a bit broken. I talked to Gusto and Fatale again and got their note in the chapel as well now but that one is broken. Shows just an internal name. (like Gusto_Fatale_Cellnote) Is that note very important? If so I guess I will have other problems later.

Also I had some sound and animation issues after the config reset. The undead would not play any sound or stand up. Just remained lying on the floor. Only the ones at the chest finally behaved normal again. So yeah it is still quite weird but I hope I can finish the game that way now.

Thank you so far for all the tips.


Edit:
Seems that despite the other small bugs described above I was abl to finish the game. Thanks again. :)
