Notice the Unnoticeable Quest

HELP!? 
I have seriously been to each location they have listed here (some of them twice) http://www.glitch-strategy.com/2011/09/finally-find-what-cant-be-found-faded-heart-quest/
And I only have 6/7 ghosts found
This is driving me crazy!
My boyfriend did the quest with me and he found all 7 of his ghosts
If anyone has any insight on this or knows a place I haven't been please PLEASE let me know!

  • I used this page as it has screen shots of all the ghosts and this page to tell me the closest ones. I made sure to stand in each spot just to make sure I didn't miss anything (I thought I had been to everyone before but missed the actual location.

  • I have been to all the screenshot locations,exactly, TWICE. I'm still at 6/7.  :-P

  • I think it would be super helpful with this quest if they could do a "You're getting warmer/colder" type indicator. 

    I too am at 6/7 and had pretty much given up. I'll check out those links that bobzarkoff posted. Hopefully it'll help. Thanks bob! :)

  • When you get to the spot shown in the screen shot, wave your mouse pointer over the area a few times.  If a ghost is there, that will highlight it and make it much more obvious.  Trust me, you can be looking right at the correct spot and still not see it.

  • I've been to these locations more than twice and still seem to have missed No. 7. I figure I'll find it eventually, but I've grown tired of looking for the time being.

  • After reading this thread earlier today, decided to work towards finding my last ghost - I mean, come on, what better night??

    So...yay!!! after about 7 streets, I found my 7th ghost, got the heart and completed quest!!!

    I wish the best of luck to the rest of you ~ I will say that I had been in the particular street several times ~ and walked right past it.

  • What Trekkie Gal said.

    Go over the spots again and use your mouse to hover and click over the areas where the ghosts are supposed to be.

  • I've hovered and clicked over and over. No joy. :(

  • Well since it took me something over a week to finish this quest here are my two currants.  On my first run through the locations mentioned in the wiki page I found 6/7 easily enough. Then I was stuck looking for the 7th same as everyone here. As the most convoluted place for this quest is Chakra Phool, I went over all the streets with a fine tooth comb... Then something weird happened, on one of the streets (Iljoki Ease) I go up on a ledge and there is a grey heart just hanging there. I clicked on it but all i got was the info tab... Needless to say I got very confused and a bit upset. I almost gave up. So I put that quest aside for a few days. Later on I decided to retry all streets really slowly and double check the locations against the photos in the wiki. When I reached Iljoki Ease i climbed on to the ledge and no heart was there. Anyway I dutifully walked all over the streets mentioned in the wiki and lo and behold 3 streets from the end (on a street I had combed 4 times) there was the last damned ghost. The end, happily ever after.
    What I am saying is maybe there is a glitch in the quest? Has anyone else noticed a gray heart hanging in mid air before completing the quest?

  • Having been around the ghost block many times now (I run ghost tours if anyone still needs to find that last darn ghost! Group link here: http://www.glitch.com/groups/RUVJLA46O0E23IN/) I've seen the faded heart sitting around a couple of times. My best guess is that it's what happens when someone finishes the quest but their inventory is full, so they cannot get the heart and no one else can pick it up, either.

  • First off all Arya I love your nick :) 
    Regarding the floating heart, my ghost counter at that point was still at 6/7 and I am certain that I would have noticed clicking on the last ghost and also clicking through all those speech bubbles to get to the point of getting the heart...

  • My problem is I found 6 out of 7 but I didn't write down where I found them. I wish the game would keep track of that. 

    My advice to anybody starting this is to keep track of where you spotted a ghost so you don't have to search that area again when you are at 6/7.

    Sigh.

  • I for one can vouch for Arya's Ghost Tours!  Not only very helpful, but a grand ole time too :D  Thanks again Arya!

  • madragoran, thanks! And what I meant was that someone else might have left it accidentally when they completed their ghost quest, not that you did. :)

    Also, to anyone who's interested, I'll be leading a ghost tour tomorrow evening at 7:30 PM US Central Time (GMT -6)! We'll meet at Eastern Approach, so you can take the subway.

    Thanks Sweetness! The tours are super fun, so I welcome everyone to join up!

  • Awesome! How long does a tour take?

  • @bobzarcoff   I found your post very helpful. I used both the links you provided as you did and finally found all the ghosts. I will say though, I noticed that the link that brings you to zogs page has some errors. Some of the streets are in the wrong areas and it seems as though some were omitted. Still, with the other link I was able to figure it out. YAY!

    While hunting for my last ghost, I came across another ghost( I was not able to click on him) he was standing kindof sideways and was in an area not listed. maybe that quest is a little glitchy. Good Luck to those still working on it!

  • I meticulously went to all know ghost locations and (horrors!) had them all marked off on my checklist and still was shy one ghost.  So I went back and did the whole list again and got the quest.  I feel bad for people who still haven't found all of their ghosts, because I think they have added some locations in recent times, so the lists people are working from may be incomplete now.  It's a very challanging quest.  Just keep at it, and.... make sure you do other fun stuff along the way.

  • I strongly suspect that the list has expanded. I have now made THREE rounds of known locations with no result. I know what to look for and how to look for it and I'm NOT FINDING.

    Frustration!!!! Oh well.

  • Fluxan, come on the ghost tour tomorrow! :) We'll find that last ghost for ya.

    Knitomaton, they take about 2.5 hours. It's a lot of fun though!

  • I've searched like CRAZY in Chakra Phool, but nothing. I even looks slowly and used Eyeballery.
    Posted 14 months ago by TacosBeFriends Subscriber! | Permalink
  • There are a couple that are way out in random streets, and a couple that are just plain difficult to see, and a couple behind trees and such. That's why it's helpful to just have someone bring you there and point at it, so to speak.

    By giving tours of all the ghost areas, I'm not trying to take away from the fun of searching for yourself, but rather stepping in to help with those people who just get really frustrated and defeated. It's an amazingly hard quest to do on your own with no help or list to go by. If that describes you, then come to Eastern Approach in 6 hours and I will show you every ghost! ;)

  • When is your next ghost tour Arya?
    Posted 13 months ago by Nessa Black Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'm not sure. I will be really swamped this whole next week, but if anyone else wants to lead a tour, I can give you a list of locations!
