How are you supposed to do Syrion's potion quest? I got the scene by waiting for him to enter the apartment building, then talking to him. I thought it seemed broken, but I wasn't sure why. Apparently I've been skipping the potion quest and using a bug to bypass it.
I've tried to figure out how to do the potion quest and I'm still stuck. I spent way longer than I think I was supposed to just waiting for him to go down to the potion, and once down there I did learn what he needed for the potion, but now I don't know how I'm supposed to give it to him.
Trying to complete this quest has kept me feeling lost and like I'm doing something wrong through each step. I'm still not entirely certain if he just goes into the basement after time passes or if there is an amount of progress the player must meet first. At no point does talking to him have him even mention the potion, and it takes him a while to go to the potion. When he is inside the basement there is a sign that says back at 9 A.M. but the only clock I can see is entirely unmarked and seemingly works in a single loop, meaning that there would be distinction between A.M. and P.M. The sign also seems to disappear once he leaves the room too, so a new player would need to see him enter to even know he goes down there.
Once he is inside the basement and working on the potion you can finally learn what he needs in order to complete the potion, but he doesn't seem to say anything if you talk to him and I don't know how to acquire the ingredients he needs. For the ectoplasm thought the ghosts would be the way to acquire it, but even after trying with an empty vial in my inventory they didn't give me any. For the slime essence there are two different slime types, so stating which color of slime would be a nice start, but even after that neither slime seemed to give me slime essence.
I assume it isn't about the powers as I already have both the ghost and slime powers and it didn't solve anything. I'm not an expert, but I doubt most players are going to be following a single NPC around, so most are probably not even going to find out he has a quest, and even if they do I don't know if they're going to be able to figure out how to meet the requirements to complete it.
Also, was he meant to have a watersports scene or am I misremembering? I thought I remembered one of the devlogs saying something about watersports, but I'm not seeing it when I checked through the devlogs.
