Quest Softlock - The Trial of Corruption

Simon's method fixed this issue for me. Thanks Simon!

DC during horn animation still softlocks the game.

This bug still exists. A problem with couch co-op is you need 2 controllers to be able to do the fix and also I have to level another character to Cruel Act 2 just to get through it.

This is a pretty detrimental bug. Gonna grind a new character to try the workaround we have now.

So I think I can provide the Steps to Reproduce the Horn Blowing Bug

1. The related tasks have been completed, and the horn has been obtained.

2. Moved to the desert map and interact with the front of the caravan to blow the horn.

3. When blowing the horn, disconnect the controller, or the network connection, or forcibly close the game.

4. When you logged back to the game, you'll find that the horn is still in the inventory, but the interaction marker has disappeared, making it impossible to interact and thus continue the task. Your journey in POE2 is stuck here.

I believe GGG should prioritize fixing mission bugs that directly block game progression, rather than continuously trying to nerf certain builds. Please focus your efforts on issues that truly impact players' game experience.

This bug has been raised on the forum for 5 days, but there hasn't been any fix yet. This means that some players, including myself, are unable to continue completing other tasks due to this mission and are permanently stuck here.

This seems to be correct. I intentionally quit to character selection to see if it would let me out of the animation "for science," and the bug was created then. Will try the couch co-op solution tomorrow if I have time.

It's more or less hardlocking progression and yeah haven't seen much coverage on it. Please take a peep at this GGG. Got other classes to level up in the mean time I suppose.

I was able to progressed to the next zone, you just need a second character and two controllers.

1. Get another character to the point right before blowing the horn.
2. Log in through couch co-op mode and have the second character as p1, cause it seems like the map interface is determined by p1.
3. Have your blocked character as p2.
4. Go blow the horn, and enter the next zone.
5. Since couch co-op player are teleported together, your main character should be able to progress normally now.

I was able to turn in a side quest, so everything should be fine now. Will update if anything goes wrong again.

And feel free to reply if you've successfully unblocked yourself this way so that we know it works.
