[Known]Blood River Massacre - Sword required to progress - Game doesn't accept axe/mace/bow.

I've accidentally destroyed all swords in "Blood River Massacre" as I looted everything, then removed any items I didn't see a use for. I am now stuck with no way forward.

Details: Bard and Fingers won't converse with Mage unless player has a sword in inventory. bow, axe, mace don't count.

"Ah, a mage, are you? Well, friend, I don't care how much fire you can make fall from the sky, you're not going to get very far in life without some backup steel. Trust me on this. There should be a spare sword on the weapon rack over by the barn."

Additionally floating text appears: "You need a sword! You can find one on a weapon rack by the stables to the southeast."

Steps to Reproduce: Never pick up a "Rusted Elven Sword" or destroy all in your inventory.

@Soya they respawn

 

Thank you for the report. Luckily most of these elements will respawn over time so, if destroyed, players will be able to acquire them again. If you want it to appear sooner, you can force a fresh instance by opening your options, selecting Multiplayer, and changing the matchmaking mode to Private or Party. The sword should appear then.

 

Thank you both! I waited about 15 minutes just hitting the dummy before reporting and didn't see them respawn, but they did respawn with changing matchmaking.
