How to fix the hard-locked quest “The Quick and Quickerer” from DLC 3 Bounty of Blood.
The Issue
When playing through the DLC you will get the quest “The Quick and Quickerer” from a woman in Vestige that looks like an undertaker. It seems like if you leave the town during the first couple of stages of this quest it will hard lock and you will not be able to complete it in any way.
The best way to avoid this issue altogether is to grab the quest and finish it, before leaving Vestige.
The Fix
If you made the mistake to travel out of vestige during the quest and locking it up, there is no easy way to fix it, as your save game itself will be hard-locked. In order to resolve the issue, you will need to edit your save to delete the quest altogether and pick it up again.
In order to delete the quest from your save game you need to install the CLI Save editor for Borderlands 3 by following the instructions on the page.
You have to locate your save files and identify the save file with the broken quest. The default location for save files is
C:\users\<USER>\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 3\Saved\SaveGames\<STEAM_ID>
In case you have multiple save files and need to identify the broken one:
- Move all files except profile.sav out of the SaveGames folder.
- Move the files back into the SaveGames folder one by one and check which character they belong to by choosing “Switch Character” in the main menu.
- Note the filename of the broken savegame.
Open a powershell or cmd and run the following commands.
cd C:\users\\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 3\Saved\SaveGames\ // THEN // if you are on NVHM bl3-save-edit old.sav new.sav --delete-pt1-mission /Game/PatchDLC/Geranium/Missions/Side/Mission_Dueling.Mission_Dueling_C // if you are on TVHM bl3-save-edit old.sav new.sav --delete-pt2-mission /Game/PatchDLC/Geranium/Missions/Side/Mission_Dueling.Mission_Dueling_C
You can choose to use the same filename for old.sav and new.sav to override the save file.
WARNING: Do this at your own risk. I recommend creating a backup of your save game by not overriding it.
Load the new savegame to verify you can pick up the quest again.
