I got the heart bow and ran back to dalar but he only says, Well done, you got staff of elements. Also, the quest still says you need Heart Bow. It never updated. I don't have an older saved game to go back and do it again. Am I screwed?

I don't have an older saved game to go back and do it again. Am I screwed? Not necessarily - you probably grabbed the bow before hit hit the ground and advanced the quest. Go back to the bush by the lake (where the bandit was who dropped the bow), stand in the center of the bush, then drop it. The quest should update.

sorry to resurrect this one, but the heading seemed appropriate.. I'm having trouble getting my Quest Log to update after talking to Corwyn the master archer in Tir Asleen. I'm on the Quest from Lord Dalar and my Log says as much.. - from what I read at siegenetworks, it seems that I should have the v3.0 patch.. how can I tell which version I have at present..? - and where can I get the patch - SN doesn't appear to have it any longer..?? CORRECTION: I found the patch at SN via a google about.. - however, when I applied it, it reported that I already have the patched game installed.. - so what else could be stopping me from finding the soldier on the beach?

If you're quest journal is not updating after you have spoke to the master archer, I don't know.
If you have trouble finding the bandit which is supposed to drop the bow, it is possible that while heading to Tir Asleen, you have got too close to the bush making the bandit spawning, then either kill him without having the quest, or simply go away and let him expire. As he's supposed to spawn only once, this will impede you to find him if you come back later with the quest.

Oh lord, if that's the case then I'm in trouble.. I think I visited the beach earlier on and had a bit of a set-to with the enemy.. so I might have dealt with him then.. ..by accident, as t'wer.. ;D - guess I'll have to hunt back through my previous saves and find one prior to that incident.. - I'll stay on it..

- as you can see from my inventory, I have the Heartbow.. - I've tried dropping it back on the ground near the bush and then retrieving it.. - as yet, no luck in reactivating the quest.. - is the drop position very precise, because I'll keep trying if necessary..?? - I assume my main character is the intended recipient..?? BTW - I like the extra long-range bows in this game, gives it an added dimension.. PS - how are you these days - keeping well, I trust..??

Talk to Brunhilde. She's a bit drunk, somewhere not too hard to find in Tir'Ashleen.

I went and checked since last we chatted. As it turns out, the guy with the heart-bow is spawned by that bush - it's a generator. The trigger only works if you have the quest to kill him, so it's not possible to grease the bugger otherwise. What can happen, however, is you can A) catch the bow before it hits the ground and thus the quest doesn't update, or B) the bow can, on occasion, fall outside the trigger area so the quest doesn't update (rare, but possible). Either way, the solution is to stand in the center of the bush (where that guy was - he can't move, he's set to "hold ground"), and drop the bow. Shazam - quest updated, you proceed onwards to Dalar who then gives you the next task. Oh - and I played through LoH again recently. It is STILL a tremendous pleasure to see Dalar get his just desserts for sending you all over hell's half acre to collect the damn weapons. Annoying bastard.
