Currently I am completing the Generation 10 story line and I'm up to the final shadow mission; Light and darkness. Upon entering the mission I am given the objective,
Use the music box when it is taunting
then use life drain
As far as I'm aware after that is done a cut scene is meant to occur ending the battle against the doppelganger. However this is not the case as for some reason when I do this nothing happens apart from the usual effect of life drain (Life drain is rank F) . The issue is probably connected to the fact that there is no visual effects for when the doppelganger or I uses alchemy skills (including life drain) and its spear of light and other doppelganger skills. Wondering if anyone has had similar issues and found a workaround or a fix as it is disrupting further progress. I have looked at videos on youtube and guides detailing how to complete the shadow mission and as far as i can tell I'm following the correct course of actions to complete the quest. Any help would be appreciated.

it could very well just be an issue of timing, especially if you're using a lower rank life drain, since there's actually a pretty narrow time frame in which life drain has to be started and finished for it to count.
of course having visuals on everything will likely be helpful
now....if only they had left the FUN part in there too, the 2nd half that got cut was so much more fun then the first half

Are you damaged when you use it? You need to successfully drain and gain HP from the thing for it to count for the quest, I remember having this issue. Had to go get smacked around by a bear and then bandaged up before heading in when I did it IIRC.

Take A Royal Alchemist with, it is much easier... also a higher rank of Life Drain make it much easier too.
