Finished the quest. I gave the merchant the amulet and contrary to the walkthrough I was not given a choice to tell him that it was cursed--besides, Chuck could not tell that anyway. The only description was that it was a Strange Amulet. Anyway, the merchant dies and the quest log lights up...I look and see the same blue quest open in the filtered open quest list. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

There is a ghost or something that can warn you about the curse on the amulet, after which you have the option to tell the merchant or not.

I had the option to tell him, decided not to. After he died the quest was active again. WHY?? Yet another bug ???

I think you only get the option to tell him the amulet was cursed, is if you took the right dialogue option with the raanaar ghost (it is for your daughter). It is the ghost who then tells you the amulet is cursed.
If you took another dialogue option, killed the ghost and then took the amulet, it would seem logical that you don't get the option to tell the merchant the amulet is cursed (because you don't know it either).

Okay, and because I missed that ghost and took a different route to completing the quest it doesn't close properly in the log.

Do you know if Larian is still working to patch the game further or are they done?

Thanks.

JollyJoe posted recently in the technical forum about emailing in a game, and being told the problem would be fixed in the next patch. No details on release timing have been mentioned, that I've seen.

It seems no matter how you resolve this it stays open in your log. I told him about the curse and still had the quest remain open.
