Quest "Some People Just Need Killing" won't progess. help?

★ Novice

So I get on the ship, the mission doesn't update, and none of the enemies become hostile. Also the Sith Lord never spawns. The game also won't let me reset the mission, so idk what to do to trigger it.

Verified that the bug has never been fixed, the work around can be hard to find, but something someone posted elsewhere worked for me as well;

I had to reset my quest to get past the escape in the escape pod step that was bugged as a previous step requires they be disabled... apparently was bugged since at least 2012. After hitting the reset button, the mission skipped to the next step, which leads to an experience similar to that mentioned in the comment below.

I was having a problem with this, i'd go to the Tyrant and it was still battle damaged and the quest marker floated off in the distant to nowhere.

I went to the fleet and was able to reset the mission while on the main level (by the cantina) and number 1 with a bullet went to 'meet darth tormen'. i went to the tyrant and the map marker was still bugged but i explored the tyrant, rather than going to the bridge i went to the north side of the first level, there is a T junction and he was in the room on the left ready and waiting for a hidden blade to the face.

hope that helps

probably not letting you reset since your in the area  try go to the fleet then try the rest button AND once that's done right click your portrait reset option there too

rumbutter i have tried both what you suggested, and neither of them did the trick, the class mission is just bugged currently it seems like, as i am also stuck on a quest on my sith marauder currently as well.

Heya @SpankedEagle

 

the marker is for sure still bugged for the quest, but you can still complete it. 

Your NPC is on the ship, lets say he is hiding cause he doesn't want to die, on the marker @epockismet posted.

 

Once you find him, you can talk to him and complete the quest. And maybe one day, we will fix the marker and make it easier for everybody Standard smile

 

edit; way to resurrect an old thead @epockismet, I didn't notice this is already 2 years old!
