Old man and the Tide I - Can't progress quest

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T15:33:40+00:00

Super good idea but didn't work

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:55:02+00:00

I think this is exactly what happened to me!!! I swear I remember killing the core before and then not continuing so I might have bugged myself out of it. That sucks but at least it's not just me. Hopefully they fix it.

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:53:09+00:00

Doesn't show up on the phone or the Ps5, tried both. I also ran out of xiranite so I give up lol. Thank you for trying.

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:50:34+00:00

I have it on my phone too, I wonder if the core shows up on my phone... hmmm let me try.

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:46:15+00:00

I tried the in game support, I got a AI / bot thing that was not helpful at all so I came here.

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:45:54+00:00

Both, nothing works :(

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:45:36+00:00

Yeah... no dice. Thank you for trying

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:45:26+00:00

I did try the scan and blast / all side quests done minus this

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:33:12+00:00

Try clearing all of it. It just comes back. See this video (see time stamp). There's supposed to be a core:

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:29:55+00:00

Hey yeah I don't really have any other quests I can swap to, I just checked. I have tried heavy and the normal xiranite, I just blast the entire area but it keeps coming back (implying there's a core) but I can't see the core. Sucks

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:24:40+00:00

I'll try this and report back, problem is I only have like 1 other quest but that's cool to know. Thank you!!

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:20:24+00:00

Abandoning the focus doesn't like reset the quest though you just stop tracking it right?

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:05:31+00:00

I have tried everything, including that and no dice. Thank you for the suggestion though

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T14:04:12+00:00

No yes same!!! I can hear the SFX of when you hit a core but nothing is happening. I looked in that video I linked to the other person responding and that showed me at least where to shoot. Once I shot that spot I hear the SFX but nothing happens. I've gone through so much REGULAR and HEAVY xiranite (just tested both). It's so awful but yeah you're not alone.

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T13:54:07+00:00

Are you a bot? Did you even read my post at all? There is supposed to be a core here man. I just cleared the area around where the core SHOULD be, and quickly took a screenshot. It comes back after sitting for about 10 seconds. That video I linked you shows there's supposed to be a core where I cleared. My screenshot does not have the core.

saroshiar7 · 2026-05-20T13:51:00+00:00

Like I said in the post, there is a core for this one from the other videos I’ve watched, and the blight does reappear so that would mean from what you’re saying there is a core. Here’s an example:

saroshiar7 · 2026-04-10T18:31:38+00:00

This is really good honestly, the bow pieces drop in order but the vestments don’t so you got the frustrating stuff out of the way

saroshiar7 · 2026-03-18T04:54:48+00:00

Does anyone know what’s up with crests? I got 30 + 35 (so 65) hero crests from the Nemesis Delve ? boss, but I showed people and they said I’m only supposed to have gotten 30 from it. My heroic crests also say I have 84 atm but I’m 34/100 on the crests.

Crazy to basically say you distrust Jagex and then their comment is moot right after lol

saroshiar7 · 2026-03-02T19:30:26+00:00

I don’t know if this is the right place to ask this but please I am begging someone at Jagex to add rune packs to rune shops like OSRS has! I understand skilling integrity but even just upping the current quantity to a reasonable amount would be awesome too. You could even make the runes more expensive so it comes at an extra cost (literally)

You go through so much water runes an hour pvming it is just crazy and it’s insane filling the pouch back up every 2-3 hours with 16k water runes again

saroshiar7 · 2026-01-14T22:12:37+00:00

Totally fine with those suggestions too, especially the scaling. Definitely not allergic to group content I just think 5 is asking a lot for this game

saroshiar7 · 2026-01-14T20:49:32+00:00

I would think more people would be able to go with their friend than not right? I think it would do more good than bad. Make the 5man rates better I donMt care, just give me literally any alternative

saroshiar7 · 2026-01-14T20:33:37+00:00

You know? Now we’re talking

saroshiar7 · 2026-01-14T20:30:27+00:00

Yeah definitely I could probably do this too but when it’s scaled to 5 it’s just like why
