Dragon's Backbone outpost quests?

[Fuz]

Prior to update 1, there was a quest named "Speaking Stones" available from the "lead researcher" gnome Ligor Kwaggle in the big tent at the outpost. You needed to visit certain Xenn temples and gather 5 stones. I did, and I had all 5 stones - but never got around to deliver them.

Then Update 1 happens. My quest list shows the quest as complete. I go to the NPC, but he refuse to talk to be, even if his name is yellow. His associate gnomes actually are aggro to me.

I abandon the quest with the hope of being able to retake it? No joy. He still don't wanna talk. I go to Mekalia and rack up 501+ Dynamic Mekalian gnome faction. Full faction is better than -7499. It doesn't help. No quests, and other gnomes in the tent still aggro.

My questions are:
- Is the quest still there or was it yanked together with the other bugged Xenn related quests at same Outpost in the Update 1 hotfix?
- Have someone without positive full faction been able to take quests from this gnome after update 1?
- What faction is needed, and what amount?

I did all these quests too.... with the rewards being like 2s for every quest in the quest line, no item rewards, and the sloppiness of quest design.. i think these were just thrown in but unfinished...

I wouldnt sweat it until we see something on test or in patch notes... i definitely dont think its faction based.
