Bug: Lucanis quest 'Murder of Crows' not appearing in quest log after accepting

Happens only if I complete 'Blood of Arlathan' main quest.

Repro:

  • Have Lucanis' '!' talk available (the one that will start Murder of Crows) before going to BoA main quest. Do not trigger his talk and leave it available.
  • Complete BoA
  • Talk to Solas as part of the main quest.
  • Lucanis will still have '!' for quest. Talk to him to start 'Murder of Crows'
  • The quest will not appear in the quest log.
  • Even weirder, any save I reload that was after BoA but definitely should still have Lucanis' '!' still available....suddenly it wasn't there anymore, as if it never existed. Or, if I reloaded to the Temporary Choice Auto save, then I COULD still talk to him, but the same issue would happen where the quest just doesn't appear in my log.

Thankfully, I was able to reload to before BoA and accept the quest properly and have it in my journal. It means I have to redo BoA (and hope it's still there after it),  but at least it's there.

Wanted to share in case it helps!

  • Was it still there after? I accepted it before BOA, yet I want to do it after BOA, but worried it'll vanish. 

  • I am literally so angry. This is my second play through and I just lost 6! 6 hours of gameplay because of this stupid bug. I didn’t have a problem with it my first play through. Lucanis didn’t have the ! above him to talk before BoA so I went and finished but after I finished the BoA  he had it so I went and talked to him went through the motion of the conversation and when I thought I would get the quest I looked in my journal and nothing. So I reloaded it and still nothing. I restarted the game when I had saved and then the ! disappeared so now I have lost 6 hours of my time and gameplay because of it. None of my other saves worked so I have to go all of the way back to fight the freaking first archdemon. I had to stop the game cause I was so frustrated

    I went to Treviso when the dragons hit.  I haven't had romantic options nor been able to even talk to Lucanis since then. This is one of the buggiest games I've ever played.
