    Yes. I spoke to him - and he gave me some quests. From the Questline of Phineas I am now at the point where I have to gather the poison from the Queen Spider. Sadly this Queen Spider won't drop any poison for me (as seen in the second bug report). Are these intertwined and I can only progress on the Vigilante Brief after completion of the poison quest?

    Did you try killing vigilantes you meet and searching/looting their corpses for possible information?

    As for the spider queen - are you playing offline or online? There seems to be an issue with drops in offline.

    I am playing online, and have killed ... about ... thousands? of the vigilantes :) No third clue on them.

    Ah, I see. My mistake. Yes, you need to get the 2 venom sacks off the wolf spider queen in the spider den. Until a fix is in, I'm afraid the only way to get the drop is to keep killing the spider queen, field dress and hope you get them. Are you certain you haven't already acquired the venom sacks? They look exactly like the regular fangs that drop off the smaller spiders, but the mouse-over description reads, "Wolf Spider Queen Venom Sack - Unusually large venom sack from a frighteningly large wolf spider queen."

    yes, I am sure that I do not have the venom sacks. Have killed the spider also some times again today - no drop.
    But what is quite strange: I still find Elf Scalps from the corrupted Elves that had been needed for the prior step of the quest. Any connection within these issues?

    Probably. All these things are quest -flag associated drops, which has been causing some problems (as you've experienced). Our top people are on it, though.

    I've experienced this with my live, normal character, but concerning the manifesto. My character got everything in the proper loot package except the manifesto, which is part of the awarded loot package that was called. I understand the frustration, but wacky bugs happen in an alpha. We'll get it worked out, though.
