Currently bugged - I believe it cannot finish if you have a full quest log? I got to 100% and heard the sound when you abandon a quest so I removed a quest from my log, but still it wouldn't complete. Logoff, leave area and come back, nothing fixed it! Guess I'll wait until next time and try again?...

Where to go
