#Problem quests in Adventure Mode

Have been tooling around in Adventure Mode and found a couple of quests that I can't seem to clear out of my queue, which is restricting me from starting any new ones:

~ A Focused Mind
Just can't seem to find any Owls in the island biome. Are they restricted to certain dungeons / decks?

~ Open For Business
Tracking doesn't seem to work once it's time to return to the town that generated the quest. There's also no mention of the town's name or general vicinity other than the biome.

Open for business has been problematic, I may need to rewrite that one from the ground up.

#

Owls should appear in the wild of the blue biome, currently at half the normal rate of average creatures. I'll move up my priority for increasing spawn rate for creatures you have quests for.

They'll appear at roughly the same rate, but you'll find them in the white biome as well.

#

One owl appears in the Zedruu dungeon. There was another dungeon that contained one, but it appears to be inactive currently.

Ok, cool. Thanks for the quick response.

Do the 'kill number of creature X' quests trigger spawns in specific areas, or are they simply a counter?

I haven't tried wandering around the white area yet as the text states Island biome specifically, but I'll give that a shot now.

If you want to pass me a copy of your save file, I can "finish" open for business for you and spawn a couple owls. I didn't intend for these to be a huge pain to complete, and again I should have already boosted that spawn rate.

#

As for where to find those enemies, they should count no matter where you find them, but they'll only be available to randomly pick for a generated quest if they are marked as spawning in an overworld biome, usually the biome where you received the quest. That biome is inserted into the quest description, but the actual location only matters if it is more explicitly stated ("clear out all the goblins from this specific cave")

Roger. Thanks again.

Update I just submitted will boost those spawn rates. In the case of the owls, those will now be 3x as likely to appear while you have a quest to defeat them. Hopefully that will make it into the next snapshot.
