[.75 Bug] Assassin's Blade quest won't clear

from Elemental Forums

I just did "The Assassin's Blade" quest for the first time on LH, and despite killing all 3 targets of the assassin, the quest won't clear.  The last stage says "Have the Assassin's Blade".  I have the blade, and have equipped it on the champion that did the quest.  Does it have to be equipped on the sovereign to clear the quest?  Is this a bug?

I think you have to unequip it for the game to recognise you have completed the quest, if memory serves. It's kind of counterintuitive but I think that's how it worked out. I think any champion can complete it, not just the sovereign.

I had originally equipped it on General Carrodus when he had finished what I thought was the last part of the quest (the 3rd battle), and had then later traded and equipped it on his henchman.  I've tried unequipping it from both, and the quest still won't finish.

Huh. Damn, thought that might help. Maybe it is bugged now...

You have to return to the starting location of the quest, with the blade in your inventory. Maybe they changed it in LH, but that is how it worked in FE.

Thanks, that worked.  It certainly wasn't clear from the quest, that last stage should tell you that instead of "Have the blade".
